Tetramethylol acetylenediurea (Cat No.:M014361) is a chemical compound used primarily as a formaldehyde-free cross-linking agent in the textile industry to enhance fabric properties. This compound is utilized to improve the crease resistance, dimensional stability, and durability of cotton and other cellulosic fabrics during laundering and wear. TMAD functions by forming cross-links between the cellulose chains in fibers, which helps maintain the fabric’s shape and reduces wrinkles. Additionally, its use is favored in eco-friendly textile processing practices, as it offers a less toxic alternative to traditional formaldehyde-based cross-linkers.
