Textile sizing compositions
Disclosed are hot-melt polyethylene compositions which are particularly useful as sizing compositions for textile materials. The compositions have a melt viscosity of from about 150 cp at 125.degree. C. to about 6000 cp at 190.degree. C. and may be removed from textile substrates using conventional petroleum based solvents. Useful polyethylenes include those having viscosities of from about 100 cp at 125.degree. C. to about 40,000 cp at 190.degree. C., densities of from about 0.90 to about 0.97 and melting points of from about 95.degree. C. to about 135.degree. C.
