A method is provided for the application of a finishing layer to a textile support material. A water repellent or oil repellent layer, a so-called finishing layer, is applied to a textile support material selected from the group of fibers, tissues and fabrics. The water repellent or oil repellent finishing layer comprises at least two water repellent or oil repellent components wherein a first component comprises one or more dispersants and a second component comprises one or more dispersed phases or colloids, and wherein the dispersant and the dispersed phase are present in the gel state. Additionally, textile articles are proved having the novel water repellent or oil repellent finishing layer which are equal on a high level or even superior with respect to their functional properties to products prepared according to known finishing methods and at the same time allow a complete or partial substitution of the health and environmentally hazardous standard chemicals employed nowadays by novel compounds which have not been used to date.
A textile article comprising textile fibers or fabrics, and a water repellent or oil repellent finishing layer on a support material, wherein the finishing layer comprises at least two components wherein a first component comprises one or more dispersant(s) and a second component comprises one or more dispersed phase(s), wherein the dispersed phase comprises at least one colloid, and wherein the dispersant and dispersed phase are present in a gel state, and wherein the colloids of the dispersed phase are distributed in the dispersant in an anisotropic manner such that the colloids are concentrated in the area of the upper surface of the finishing layer.
A method for the application of a water repellent or oil repellent finishing layer onto a textile material, wherein the material is selected from the group consisting of fibers, tissues, and fabrics, the method comprising:
