Silicone-containing fabric treatment agent

摘要

The inventive fabric treatment agent can impart excellent hydrophilicity to fabric materials of, in particular, synthetic fibers with durability and launderability. The principal ingredient of the agent is a copolymer composed of three types of moieties including (a) a diorganopolysiloxane terminated at both molecular chain ends each with a non-silanolic hydroxy group or other active hydrogen-containing group, e.g. -SH, -COOH and -NH2, (b) a polyol compound having polyoxyalkylene linkages which is typically a polyoxyethylene glycol and (c) a diisocyanate compound which serves as a coupling agent between the moieties (a) and (b).
