A method of finishing a textile comprising the steps of: (a) preparing an aqueous finishing liquor comprising from 0.05 wt. % solids to 65 wt. % solids of a finishing resin selected from the group comprising: vinyl acetate emulsion resins, including copolymers such as vinyl acetate ethylene emulsions, vinyl acetate acrylics, acrylic emulsions, polyvinyl alcohol resins, including polyvinyl alcohol vinyl formamide copolymers, polyvinyl alcohol vinyl amine copolymers, sulfonic acid functionalized polyvinyl alcohol resins, modified polyvinyl alcohol resins generally; and mixtures thereof; (b) saturating the textile with the finishing liquor to incorporate the liquor into the textile so as to provide a wetted textile; and (c) processing the wetted textile at elevated temperature under conditions which are controlled such that the finishing resin is inter-associated with the fibers of the textile; wherein the finishing resin is durably and uniformly inter-associated with the textile fiber surfaces at an add-on level of from 0.05 wt. % to less than 65 wt. % and is operative to alter at least one comfort-related property of the textile. |
