An examination of the effect of a range of cationic surfactants on the bending properties of a woven wool fabric is reported. The changes in fabric properties caused by the surfactant differed considerably from those observed on cotton fabric. Factors affecting the fabric properties included the distribution of the surfactant on wool fibres, the nature of the surfactant, the method, time, and temperature of application, and the nature of any modification to the wool fibres.
