The fluorinated copolymer emulsions containing different monomers with the reactive groups were successfully prepared at our lab, using emulsion polymerization technique. The water repellency and the durability for the fabrics treated by fluorinated water repellents after 30 and 50 washes were measured and compared, Actually, the combination of the comonomers containing blocked isocyanate or other reactive groups after copolymerization would increase the durability of the water repellency. In addition, the blocked isocyanate crosslinking agent (Jintexguard FCN) does, indeed, substantially increase the durability also. It clearly indicates that the copolymer emulsion prepared by the reaction of fluorinated acrylate, cyclohexyl. methacrylate, and 3-chloro-2-hydroxy-propyl methacrylate(Topolene M) with monomers containing blocked isocyanate group(Jintexan BIA) showed very good durability. More importantly, the combination of this copolymer and Jintexguard FCN will significantly provide excellent water repellency and durability after 50 washes. (c) 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
