These spe­ cial textile finishes are being- used widely to impart proper­ ties of crispness, wrinkle insis­ tence and shrinkage control, or special effects like glaze, embos­ sed or moire patterns to fabrics, Fabrics as they come from the. loom, lack beauty and service­ ability. They must undergo var­ ious operations of5 dyeing and finishing before they can be. con­ sidered for ultimate consumer use. General finishes like bleach­ ing, mercerizing, calendering, and napping are necessary for the manufacture of a fabric and im­ part to the fabric its character­ istic appearance and texture. Special finishes on the other hand, are designed for special specific purposes. They are a plus value and add to the beauty and serviceability of the fabric. More For The Money These finishes naturally in­ crease with the price, because of the extra materials, equipment and labour, which add to the manufacturing cost. But they give the customer “more for her money”. Good textile finishes not only increase the serviceability of garments, but make their up­ keep more convenient and econ­ omical. In order to benefit from the advantages of a special finish, it is necessary to know what has been used, to what extent it will withstand laundering and dry­ cleaning, and if any precaution is required in the use of the fabric. Usually possible to detect by sight the finish that used, therefore it is that the instructions on the label be followed precisely not only to avoid damage, but also ac­ cumulate knowledge regarding the use and care of these new fabrics. Finishes Vary Special finishes vary in dur­ ability, depending on the chemi­ cals used, the method of applica­ tion and the care they receive. Some are removed in the first laundering or cleaning and re­ quire reapplication after launder­ ings without appreciable change in the tended stand troyed Others not laundered.

If fabrics of these finishes are given a chlorine bleach treat­ ment, they may either turn yel­ low or deteriorate, depending the type of resin used. Don’t Bleach Unless the manufacturer commends it, therefore, it best not to bleach these fabrics. If bleach has been used accident­ ally rinse it out as thoroughly as posible before ironin; imize the damage as posible. Fabrics treated sins require temperatures and ironing. A special one specific fabric, but most of them accom­ plish more than one single pur­ pose. For example, a finish may be designed to impart rinkle re­ sistance, but it may also provide shrinkage control and stain sistance. Glazed Fabrics Glaze finishes are used to part a glossy surface to white, dyed or printed cottons, Glazed fabrics are called chintz. They are crisp and have unusual soil resistance. Usually the comes if you glaze” sleeve asured that it’s durable finish and that it will take re­ peated washings, even in the washer. Starchless finishes impart crispness to fabrics.

In recent years, semi-permane- ent crisp finishes for home laun­ dering use have been developed. They can be applied like starch, but are chemically different from ordinary starches. These finish­ es may last up to eight washings and can be used on clothing, tablecloths, napkins, and other household textiles. Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s in­ structions precisely' in their use however. As ytet, I have not seen these on the market in Canada, but they may be here so watch for them. No Shrinking S h r i n k-resistant treatments stabilize the fabric so that the dimensions are retained after laundering and cleaning. Most of the finishes that give crisp­ ness wrinkle resistance and wat­ er repellency also control shrink­ age to some extent. However special treatments xare necessary to reduce shrinkage to definite minimum limits. “Sanforized” identifies this process that limits shrinkage to less than one per cent on cottons, even after re­ peated launderings and steady wearing. Controlling of shrinkage of cottons is so common today that it is no longer considered some­ thing special, but it is a pro­ cess which must not be omitted. Special processes for rayon have been developed and are gaining popularity. New shrinkage-con­ trol treatments for wool minimize the danger of matting and felt­ ing. Good Traveler Crease-resistant finishes im­ part wrinkle and crush resis­ tance to fabrics. “Wrinkle-shed”, “tebilized”, “superset”, “discip­ lined fabrics” or “wat-a-set” means that the cotton has been treated to resist wrinkling and to recover through hanging. This makes cdtton a good traveler. Flame-resistant finishes enable a fabric to resist rapid combus­ tion. Some fabrics are danger­ ously flamible; they ignite in­ stantly and burn rapidly. Such fabric present a great hazard to property and lives. The danger is so serious that some places have laws prohibiting the sale of high­ ly inflamible merchandise.

However, there is continual research with a view of improvement, and undoubtedly in the not too distant future, there will be some thing very much better'. At the present time, flame-re­ sistant treatments are used oh curtain, drapery and upholstry fabrics and some apparel fabrics. These are only a few of the more common types of finishes and you will probably find many more.
