Chemicals and Textiles

Part II: Dermatological Problems Related to Finishes

Kathryn L. Hatch

Clothing, Interior Design and Textiles, Washington State University, Pullman, Washington 99164, U.S.A.

The role of textile finishes in producing skin reactions is reviewed. About ten finishes have been identified that irritate and/or sensitize the skin of consumers. Only formaldehyde resin fabrics have caused a substantial number of cases of dermatitis. Types and severity of reaction are given and incidence rates estimated. Little is known about the transfer of chemicals from fabric to the skin and the sensitization process.
