An object of the present invention is to make it possible that a pyridine antibacterial/antifungal agent is dispersed stably in a liquid for appropriate impartation of the pyridine antibacterial/antifungal agent to fibers, and that when fibers are processed with the agent which is mixed with various other treating agents such as dyes and softeners, there is no negative influences on the process of the fibers for imparting antibacterial/antifungal properties. An antibacterial/antifungal properties-imparting agent contains a pyridine antibacterial/antifungal agent; a modified polysaccharide having reduced hydroxyl groups; and a wetting agent; but does not contain a surfactant. After applying the antibacterial/antifungal properties-imparting agent to fibers, the fibers undergo a heating process.

A fibrous gel-wipe, methods making the gel-wipe and methods of using the gel-wipe, suitable for use in personal care and household cleansing applications, which gel-wipe includes a superabsorbent gel fiber and a liquid cleansing composition.

The present invention relates to a heat insulation composition, containing aerogel, with improved heat insulation and soundproofing properties, and a method for manufacturing a heat insulation fabric by using the same. The heat insulation composition is prepared by mixing solvent, aerogel powder, adhesive binder and carbon black powder, thereby improving the heat insulation property at an extremely low temperature and at a high temperature, and also enhancing the soundproofing property.

A stable aqueous dispersion containing a mixture of an anionic polymer, quaternary ammonium salt, a dispersion agent and water. The dispersing agent is poly (acrylamide-co-acrylic acid) or copolymer of maleic acid and an olefin. The dispersion can be applied to textile materials and nonwoven substrates. Nonwoven substrates, such as polypropylene substrates can be treated with the dispersion to provide a highly active quick killing antimicrobial effect: Log 4 reduction in 5 minutes. This would be useful to deactivate the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes Covid-19.
