Water Repellency and Surface Protection in Foam-Coated Curtains

Foam-coated curtains are frequently exposed to humid environments, condensation, and occasional cleaning. Surface water resistance therefore plays an important role in maintaining appearance and performance. Anti-stick coating binders with silicone functionality naturally enhance water repellency.

The low surface energy of silicone segments causes water droplets to bead on the surface rather than spread or penetrate. This reduces water absorption and helps keep the foam layer dry, protecting its structure and softness.

Improved water resistance also contributes to hygiene. A surface that repels moisture is less prone to dirt accumulation and microbial growth, especially in warm or humid climates.

Unlike heavy waterproof coatings, anti-stick finishes provide this protection without sealing the fabric completely. Breathability and softness are preserved, ensuring comfort and usability in interior textile applications.
