5. The most effective crosslinking reagents for durable press finishing of cellulose fibers are formaldehyde adducts of urea which release formaldehyde during the production and wearing of in such way treated clothes Formaldehyde durable press finishers are applied to the textile substrate mainly in the form of N-methylol and N-alkoxymethyl compounds

7. EN ISO 14184-1 standard test method Standard solutions of formaldehyde with concentration levels of 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, 3.0, 6.0, 15.0 and 30.0 mg/L in the 3,5, - diacetyl –1,4-dihydrolutidin forms were prepared. The formaldehyde derivative solution s w ere prepared in water and in matrix (extract from untreated cotton fibers). Six replicates of each concentration level were prepared From the textile substratef ormaldehyde was extracted with water at 40  C , filtered and then converted by using acetyl - acetone reagent to yellow colored compound
