ALKYL POLYGLYCOSIDES IN TEXTILE SCOUR/BLEACH PROCESSING

摘要

The present invention provides a process for scouring and bleaching textile materials comprising adding to an aqueous peroxide bleaching bath a surfactant composition comprising: (a) from about 94.0 to about 6.0 % by weight of an alkyl polyglycoside; (b) from about 6.0 to about 94.0 % by weight of a synthetic alkoxylated C11-C15 linear alcohol, and (c) the remainder water, and then contacting the textile materials with the bath. The foaming properties of the alkyl polyglycoside composition may be reduced by adding thereto an effective amount of an ethylene oxide-propylene oxide copolymer or a chlorine-capped ethoxylated isodecyl alcohol.
