Textile chemicals encompass a diverse range of specialized chemical compounds that find application in the various stages of fabric processing, including pretreatment, dyeing, and finishing. This category includes a wide array of chemical agents, such as wetting agents, detergents, emulsifiers, sizing agents, desizing agents, dye carriers, dye leveling agents, dye fixatives, and additives for enhancing rubbing fastness. Textile chemicals also feature water-repellent substances like fluorocarbons (PFAS), synthetic waxes, and silicones. They play a pivotal role in processes like scouring, bleaching, and printing, enhancing the overall quality and appearance of textiles. Additionally, these chemicals contribute to the flame resistance, wrinkle resistance, stain resistance, and crease resistance of fabrics while preserving the integrity of prints and patterns. Moreover, they introduce antimicrobial properties to textiles, extending their lifespan, preventing odors, and reducing the likelihood of skin irritations. Optical brightening agents (OBAs) are also utilized to provide textiles with a pristine white appearance, serving as a canvas for vibrant prints and patterns.
