<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cotton fabric treatment method for imparting a water diffusion promoting ability to a cotton fabric used in direct contact with skin, which method enhances water evaporation properties to reduce an unpleasant feeling such as a sticky feeling due to sweat and a cold feeling after sweating, and to provide a water diffusion promoter for imparting the water diffusion promoting ability to a cotton fabric used in direct contact with skin. <P>SOLUTION: [1] The cotton fabric treatment method imparts the water diffusion promoting ability to a cotton fabric used in direct contact with skin by attaching a glyceryl ether compound (A) to the cotton fabric in an amount of 0.1-50 mass% based on the mass of the cotton fabric. [2] The water diffusion promoter for imparting the water diffusion promoting ability to a cotton fabric used in direct contact with skin contains the glyceryl ether compound (A). The glyceryl ether compound (A) is represented by the general formula (1): R<SP POS="POST">1</SP>-O-CH<SB POS="POST">2</SB>CH(OH)CH<SB POS="POST">2</SB>-O-R<SP POS="POST">2</SP>[where R<SP POS="POST">1</SP>is a 5-9C straight-chain hydrocarbon group or a 5-24C branched-chain hydrocarbon group, and R<SP POS="POST">2</SP>is a 1-9C straight-chain hydrocarbon group or a 5-24C branched-chain hydrocarbon group]. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT</p> |
