Waterproof agents are chemical treatments applied to textiles, leather, and other materials to impart water-repellent or waterproof properties. These agents form a protective barrier that prevents liquid penetration while maintaining breathability. Below is a detailed technical breakdown.
| Property | Açıklama |
|---|---|
| Chemical Base | Fluoropolymers, silicones, wax emulsions, or PU-based coatings |
| Form | Liquid emulsion, spray, or solvent-based solution |
| Hydrophobicity | Contact angle >90° (high water repellency) |
| Durability | Wash-resistant (durable) or temporary (non-durable) |
| Breathability | Varies (microporous coatings allow vapor transmission) |
| Curing Temperature | 120–180°C (heat-cured) or ambient drying |
| Method | Process | Suitable Materials |
|---|---|---|
| Padding | Fabric immersed, then squeezed and dried | Woven fabrics, nonwovens |
| Spraying | Evenly applied via spray nozzle | Garments, footwear |
| Coating | Roller or knife-coating for thick layers | Tarps, technical textiles |
| Exhaust | Added in dyeing bath for uniform treatment | Knits, synthetic fabrics |
| Parameter | Untreated Fabric | Treated Fabric |
|---|---|---|
| Water Repellency | 0 (absorbs water) | 4–5 (beading) |
| Wash Resistance | N/A | 10–50+ washes* |
| Air Permeability | High | Moderate to high |
| Hand Feel | Natural | Slightly stiffer |
Depends on agent type and curing method.
| Avantajları | Limitations |
|---|---|
| ✔ Prevents water penetration | ❌ May reduce fabric breathability |
| ✔ Enhances stain resistance | ❌ Higher cost for fluoropolymer types |
| ✔ Extends product lifespan | ❌ Requires heat curing for durability |
| ✔ Eco-friendly options available | ❌ Temporary treatments wash off easily |
| Factor | Consideration |
|---|---|
| Material Type | Cotton, polyester, and blends may require different formulations |
| End Use | Outdoor gear (high durability) vs. fashion (softer handle) |
| Environmental Impact | PFAS-free options preferred for sustainability |
| Processing | Padding for bulk treatment vs. spraying for localized application |
Waterproof agents enhance functionality in textiles by providing water resistance without compromising durability. The choice of agent depends on material type, desired performance, and environmental considerations. Proper application ensures long-lasting protection while maintaining fabric comfort.
