Definitions

  • the present invention relates to surfactant compositions for hydrophilic finishing of textile fibers and textile products made therefrom, such as nonwovens, which impart permanently hydrophilic properties to these basically hydrophobic substrates.
  • Hydrophilic nonwovens are used in particular as cover fleeces or as intermediate fleeces in multilayer nonwovens for hygiene articles such as baby diapers, sanitary napkins, incontinence products and similar products. Such webs have the task to forward body fluids such as urine quickly to the underlying absorption layer.
