As far as the changes in the imparted %N, WRA, WRR and ORRchemical and functional properties of the finished substrates upon utilizing the emulsified adduct as water/oil repellent, the data in Table 2 demonstrate that, (i) the extent of variation in the afore- mentioned properties is determined by the type of weave structure and follows the descending order: stain > twill > plain, regardless of the imparted property, (ii) this reflects the positive impact of load- ing and/or binding the nominated adduct covalently to the hydroxyl groups of the cellulose component (Eq. (3)) and/or via deposition as a cross-linked deposits onto the fabric surface (Eq. (4)), and as
