By use of polyethyleneglycols and cross-linking agents in a conventional pad-dry-cure process, fabrics have been produced with the unusual combination of high dry wrinkle and low wet wrinkle recovery. These fabrics and others with the various combinations of dry and wet wrinkle recovery have been examined in terms of the mechanisms for dry and wet wrinkle recovery. On the basis of certain textile properties, an explanation is offered for this unusual combination of high dry and low wet recovery.
