Antimicrobic, antistatic siloxane compositions and method for treating materials

摘要

A composition for treating a solid material to give it antimicrobic, hydrophilic and antistatic properties comprises siloxane compound which has one or more alkoxysilylalkyl groups and one or more polyoxyalkylene groups and a silane having antimicrobial properties. In a preferred embodiment the composition is used to treat fibers and fiber-containing materials. The composition can further contain a curing agent for the siloxane. Emulsion compositions are particularly useful.
