Abstract

A fabric treating method involves applying a composition to adjust its moisture content to between 30 and 60 %. A crease is then formed in the fabric by pressing at between 130 and 170 degrees C. The composition is at least one compound that contains at least 2 isocyanate groups in free or blocked form.
