It is observed that ampholytics are effective as antistatic agents and softeners, without effecting dyeing.
To investigate the adaptability of ampholytics as oiling agent, the drawing friction of “Bonnel” fiber treated with it was measured. Minimum values of friction were observed at the concentrations between 0.030.16% for 1-oxyethyl-2-heptadecyl imidazolinium betaine, 0.070.1% for N-lauryl-N, N-dimethyl-α-betaine and 0.20.4% for oleic acid. For the oiling of “Bonnel”, much smaller quantities of ampholytics are required as compared with oleic acid.
