Fluorochemical composition for rendering fibrous substrates oil repellent, water repellent, and/or stain or soil repellent. The composition comprises a dispersion or a solution of a fluorinated compound which comprises the reaction product of the following: (i) one or more fluorinated polyethers according to the formula: RfQTk (I) wherein Rf represents a monovalent perfluorinated polyether group having a number average molecular weight of at least 750 g/mol, Q represents a chemical bond or a divalent or trivalent organic linking group, T represents a functional group capable of reacting with an isocyanate, and k is 1 or 2; (ii) one or more polyoxyalkylene diols; (iii) one or more short chain perfluoroalkyl alcohols; (iv) one or more isocyanate component selected from a polyisocyanate compound that has at least 3 isocyanate groups or a mixture of polyisocyanate compounds wherein the average number of isocyanate groups per molecule is more than 2; (v) optionally one or more isocyanate blocking groups; and (vi) optionally one or more co-reactants capable of reacting with an isocyanate group. Also, a method of applying such composition to substrates, e.g., fibrous substrates.
A fluorochemical composition comprising a dispersion or a solution of a fluorinated compound, wherein said fluorinated compound comprises the reaction product of a combination of reactants comprising:
