Functionalised hotmelts for textile applications

Hotmelts are 100% polymer systems applied onto a a substrate during the melt stage and offering the following advantages:

  • energy savings
  • reduced emissions
  • less waste

During this project we will examine the possibilities of functionalised hotmelts for the creation of improved or new functionalities on textiles such as

  • FR-properties
  • antimicrobial properties
  • water/oil barrier...
