Tara Siegel Bernard, When Wrinkle-Free Clothing Also Means Formaldehyde
Fumes; A chemical in clothing that can cause itchy skin, rashes and blisters
. New York Times, Dec. 11, 2010.

("So why use the chemical at all? Formaldehyde basically keeps the fabric’s
fibers in place after a spin in the washing machine. Without it, the fibers
become wrinkled or creases may fade")

To be honest, recent progress has totally passed me by. I was unaware of
this wrinkle-free thing until I read the NYT report.
Fear not. I just beefed myself up on the issue.
(a) A good start is
permanent press
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_press
The active ingredient of the "resin" alluded to in the NYT report in my
original is none other than DMDHEU mentioned in this Wiki.
(b) The Wiki page cites:
Andrew Kantor, Chemistry and nanotech work to make carefree clothing. USA
Today, Dec. 31, 2004.
http://www.usatoday.com/tech/columnist/andrewkantor/2004-12-31-kantor_x.htm
Now that title of the column is Cyberspeak, the report may not be published
in the print but online only--a contention bolstered by the fact that this
report is long whereas print reports in USA Today tend to be short and
concise.
The USA Today report is six years old, but very informative (and not out of
date at all).
(c) The Wiki mentions Nano-Tex. The exact product is
Coolest Comfort
http://www.nano-tex.com/technologies/coolest_comfort.html
You can confirm connection of this product with wrinkle-free, by googling
these terms.
Coolest Comfort is patented, and I cannot find its chemical composition.
(d) The Wiki page references an EPA paper whose URL was changed. The new URL
is below.
Nanotechnology White Paper. Environmental Protection Agency, February 2007 (
EPA 100/B-07/001)
http://epa.gov/ncer/nano/publications/whitepaper12022005.pdf
But the EPA paper does not say much: Table 5 listed "clothing." That is all.
Nano-Tex or Coolest Comfort was not mentioned.
