OBS

  • stain repeller

French

Domaine(s)
  • Apprêt et traitements divers (Textiles)
CONT

[...] l'apprêt anti-taches confère aux textiles un caractère à la fois hydrophobe et oléophobe. Il s'oppose à l'étalement, et par conséquent, à la pénétration des liquides d'origine aqueuse ou huileuse. [...] il crée une barrière efficace contre les substances et permet d'éviter les taches accidentelles [...]

OBS

Les apprêts fluorés sont les seuls capables de donner aux textiles à la fois des propriétés d'imperméabilité, d'anti-tache et d'anti-salissure, en facilitant éventuellement le lavage.

Key term(s)
  • apprêt antitaches
