Abstract

Textile materials containing cellulosic fibers are provided with durable press properties by reacting and crosslinking the cellulosic fibers with a durable press finishing agent consisting essentially of a silicone compound and a silicone fragmentation reactant in an effective amount to fragment the silicone compound when exposed to curing conditions. The fabric is impregnated with a finishing bath containing the durable press finishing agent and the fabric is heated to fragment the silicone compound and react and crosslink the finishing agent with the cellulosic fibers to impart durable press properties to the fabric.
