ABSTRACT:
Durable press properties are imparted to a fabric by applying to the fabric an aqueous durable press treatment composition comprising a reactive modified ethylene urea resin, such as dimethylol dihydroxy ethylene urea (DMDHEU), a crosslinking acrylic copolymer derived from butyl acrylate and acrylonitrile and having a glass transition temperature (T.sub.g) of -30.degree. C. or lower, and a catalyst. The fabric is dried to a residual moisture content of 10 to 20 percent by weight, is pressed to remove unwanted wrinkles, and is heated at a temperature of 88.degree. to 175.degree. C. for up to fifteen minutes to cure and crosslink the durable press treatment composition and impart durable press properties to the fabric. The process can be applied either to fabrics prior to fabrication into garments, or as a garment durable press process imparting durable press properties to fabricated garments.
