In anti-wrinkle finishing, the crosslinking degree of fabric is mainly determined by wrinkle recovery angle, stiffness, and viscosity, these indicators can only reflect the finishing effect from a macro perspective, which cannot reflect whether the crosslinking is sufficient, and it is difficult to quantify the crosslinking degree. In this paper, we combined the Kjeldahl method with the Arrhenius formula and proposed a method to analyze the crosslinking degree of dimethyloldihydroxyethyleneurea (two-dimensional (2D) resin) with cotton cellulose during delayed-cure finishing for the first time. The nitrogen content of completed fabrics during storage was measured by the Kjeldahl method, and the reaction rate equation of the 2D resin and cellulose under normal temperature conditions was calculated. The results show that the nitrogen content is more suitable to indicate the crosslinking degree, and the apparent activation energy was 28.271 kJ/mol and the pre-finger factor was 0.622, which indicated that the 2D resin was prone to cross-linking with cotton fabrics during storage. During long-term storage, the relative errors between the calculated and measured values of the nitrogen content were within ±5%, and the accuracy was higher than the traditional evaluation method. The stability of 2D resins during the storage of delayed-curing finishing was also analyzed through this method.
