FIBER INDIVISUALIZED AND CROSSLINKED CONTAINING RESIDUAL CROSSLINKING AGENT AT LOW LEVEL AND ITS PRODUCTION

摘要

A process for making individualized, crosslinked fibers having low levels of residual crosslinking agent. The fibers are made by contacting the fibers with a crosslinking agent; reacting the crosslinking agent with the fibers to form intrafiber crosslink bonds in the substantial absence of interfiber bonds; and washing the fibers with an alkaline solution.
