Waterproof and Water Repellent Textiles and Clothing provides
systematic coverage of the key types of finishes and high
performance materials, from conventional wax and silicone, through
controversial, but widely used fluoropolymers and advanced
techniques, such as atmospheric plasma deposition and sol-gel
technology. The book is an essential resource for all those engaged
in garment development, production and finishing, and for academics
engaged in research into apparel technology and textile science.
Rapid innovation in this field is driving new performance demands
in many areas, including the sporting and military sectors.
However, another innovation driver is the regulatory framework in
the USA, Europe and globally, addressing both health concerns (e.g.
with PFOS / PFOA) and environmental impacts (e.g. C8 fluorocarbon
finishes). Both of these aspects are fully covered, along with the
replacement materials / technologies currently available and under
development. In addition, oleophobic and multifunctional coatings
are discussed, as are aspects of performance, testing and
applications in sportswear, protective clothing, and footwear.
