Method for treating a fabric and fabric treated thereby

摘要

An aqueous solution containing at least an amido-phosphazene compound and an acid catalyst is applied to a fabric comprising cellulosic fibers so that said amido-phosphazene compound adheres to the fabric in an amount of 1-10% by weight of the fabric and then thus treated fabric is subjected to drying, curing and soaping, thereby obtaining a fabric having soft hand and low in shrinkage after repeated washings which contains less than 6% of amido-phosphazene and less than 10 mu /g of free formaldehyde and is less than 4% in shrinkage after washings of 45 times.
