Abstract (en)

This invention relates to a durable press treatment for textile fabrics containing cellulosic fibers and which is characterized by avoiding the use of formaldehyde and problems associated therewith. The fabric is impregnated with a formaldehyde-free finishing agent containing glyoxal, reactive silicone and a catalyst. The fabric is thereafter dried and the finishing agent is cured to impart durable press properties to the fabric.
