Silicone-based fabric finishing agent and fabric material finished therewith

摘要

A novel silicone-based fabric finishing agent is proposed which is particularly suitable for finishing a fabric material containing keratinous fibers, e.g., wool, for imparting the fabric material with excellent shrink-proofness and soft and pleasant feeling of touch even after repeated laundering treatments. The fabric finishing agent is an aqueous emulsion of a hydroxy-containing organopolysiloxane with admixture of a mixture of colloidal silica and a reaction product of an amino-functional alkoxy silane or a hydrolysis product thereof with an acid anhydride, an epoxy-functional alkoxy silane compound and a curing catalyst.
