Abstract

A process for the treatment of cellulosic textile materials comprising the following successive steps: effecting grafting of the cellulose textile material with a monomer which, when formed into a polymer, has the characteristics of an elastomer at ambient temperature; effecting irradiation treatment by ionizing radiation of the grafted cellulose material so as to achieve cross-linking of the grafts formed, thus leading to permanent crease resistant properties; and effecting post-irradiation treatment by storage enabling the cross-linking to be completed.
