Enhancing polyester fiber structure 

 

To strengthen the structure of the polyester fiber, TERRA offers a specific range of silicone emulsions used in textile finishing applications. They improve both mechanical strenghts, and optical qualities of polyester fiber textiles, and impart very specific effects such as elasticity, softness and bulkiness, rebound resilience, easy comb and anti-static effects, and reduced water absorbency.

Derivated from low-volatile content functional silicone fluids, TERRASOFT® serie silicone emulsions from TERRA impart Polyester fiber textiles outstanding properties in terms of elasticity, soft touch effects and rebound resilience. They improve color fastness with durable gloss, enhance thermal resistance and heat stability, provide friction resistance, wear resistance and washing resistance, and reduce water absorbency. In addition, they are fully in compliance with OEKO-TEX®, INDITEX, ZDHC and Bluesign®, provide high productivity, and contribute to the cost optimization.
