aramid fibers can add additional flame resistance durability and stain protection the amount of aramid fibers should not exceed 50 of the total fabric weight so that the more rigid aramid fibers will not reduce the flexibility of the overall fabric or add additional bulk to finished garments made from the fabric to coat the high performance fabric with an anti stain compound 106 the fabric is drawn through a water based dispersion with the polytetrafluoroethylene to permeate the fabric the water is heated to a temperature approximately between 70 u00b0 c and 100 u00b0 c this will loosen the fiber so that the polytetrafluoroethylene can fully impregnate the fabric alternatively the fabric can be drawn through a silicone based dispersion to coat the fabric with silicone in this case the silicone based dispersion solution is heated to a temperature of approximately 70 u00b0 c and 100 u00b0 c to loosen the fibers and allow for deep penetration preferably the fabric is coated with polytetrafluoroethylene as it is more durable through repeated washings than the silicone additionally the polytetrafluoroethylene adds a brightness and sheen to the fabric that is desirable for use in the finished garments also the fabric can be sprayed with a hydrophobic or superhydrophobic compound in addition to the polytetrafluoroethylene or silicone treatment this would add an extra layer of stain protection to the fabric however current hydrophobic and superhydrophobic compounds are not as resistant to repeated washing and would need to be.
