Abstract
Abstract An improved warp size for filament yarn is provided consisting essentially of polyvinyl alcohol, alkyl phenoxy (or cresoxy) ethoxyethyl dimethylbenzyl ammonium chloride and a plasticizer such as glycerol or urea, which when applied to filament yarn from aqueous solution provides excellent weaving efficiency and ease of removal combined with low shedding in the loom.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
127 words
A composition consisting essentially of (a) about 100 parts by weight of polyvinyl alcohol having a degree of hydrolysis of from about 88 to about 100 mol % and a solution viscosity of from about 5 to about 50 mPa.s measured as a 4% aqueous solution at a temperature of 20° C., (b) from about 0.5 to about 10 parts by weight of cationic surfactant selected from the group consisting of alkyl phenoxyethoxyethyl dimethylbenzyl ammonium chlorides and alkyl cresoxyethoxyethyl dimethylbenzyl ammonium chlorides wherein the alkyl group has 2 to 12 carbon atoms, and (c) from about 4 to about 50 parts by weight of plasticizer selected from the group consisting of polyhydric alcohol having up to 3 hydroxyl groups and up to 8 carbon atoms, and urea.
