CHEMICAL MODIFICATION OF FIBROUS CELLULOSE WITH SODIUM N-METHYLBIS(2-SULFATOETHYL)AMINE AND WITH N-METHYLBIS(2-CHLOROETHYL)AMINE TO IMPART CREASE RESISTANCE IN FABRICS

摘要

N-methylbis(2-sulfatoethyl)amine and the monosodium salt of this new compound have been prepared and applied to cotton to impart crease-resistant characteristics to the fabrics. N-methylbis(2-chloroethyl)amine, a related known compound, was also reacted with the fibrous cellulose. Respectively, a pad-cure process was employed on the one and a pad wet-cure process was employed on the other to produce cross-linked cellulosic derivatives.
