Abstract
Abstract Disclosed is an aqueous acid solution or suspension of a preparation as well as the production thereof for the permanent finishing of fibre materials, especially dyed carpets, to render them antistatic, dirt-repellent and, optionally, antimicrobial, which aqueous preparation contains: A. 10 to 20 per cent by weight of at least one antistatic agent, B. 3 to 35 per cent by weight of a stabilised, aqueous non-film-forming dispersion of polystyrene, C. 1 to 6 percent by weight of at least one acid, especially o-phosphoric acid, and D. 0 to 5 percent by weight of further components, such as an antimicrobic agent and a solubility-promoting agent.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
152 words
A preparation for use in giving fiber materials a permanent antistatic and dirt-repellent finish, consisting essentially of an aqueous dispersion of a. 10 to 20 % by weight of an antistatic agent comprising a compound of the formula ##EQU29## wherein R represent an alkyl radical having 8 to 22 carbon atoms, R 1 and R 2 are, each independently, alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkyl substituted by carboxylic and/or sulphonic acid groups, aminoalkoxyalkyl or aminoalkyl wherein the amino group is unsubstituted or substituted by hydroxyalkyl, cyanoalkylaminoalkyl or by the group R--CO-- or --R--CO--NH-alkoxyalkyl wherein R is alkyl having 8 to 22 carbon atoms, or one of R 1 and R 2 is hydrogen, b. 3 to 35 % by weight of an aqueous non-film-forming dispersion of polystyrene, c. 1 to 6 % by weight of an inorganic or organic monobasic or polybasic acid, and d. 0 to 5 % by weight of an antimicrobic agent.
