Fluorine-free water repellents refer to chemical agents that can be applied to fabrics such as clothing or other materials to make them resistant to liquids such as water. These repellents provide protection against moisture without using fluorocarbons that deplete stratospheric ozone layer. They can also increase durability and stain resistance of treated fabric besides offering benefits at lower temperatures compared to traditional hydrocarbon treatments making them suitable for winter wear applications.
Traditional fluorinated water repellent treatments have raised concerns about potential health risks associated with exposure to certain chemicals. Fluorine-free alternatives provide a safer option for textile workers, consumers, and the environment. Manufacturers are recognizing the importance of employee safety and consumer well-being, leading them to adopt fluorine-free water repellent treatments that offer comparable performance without the health risks.
Governments and regulatory bodies worldwide have implemented restrictions and regulations on the use of fluorinated compounds in various industries, including textiles. For example, regulations such as REACH in Europe and certain state-level regulations in the United States limit the use of certain PFCs. These restrictions have compelled manufacturers to explore and adopt fluorine-free water repellent treatments to comply with these regulations.
Governments and organizations are providing support and incentives to encourage the adoption of sustainable practices in various industries, including textiles. Financial incentives, grants, and research funding are being provided to promote the development and adoption of fluorine-free water repellent technologies. Such support contributes to market growth by reducing barriers to entry and facilitating innovation.
