If you're talking about fabric chemicals for washing machines, I know that I add fabric chemicals such as softeners, bleach and brighteners for every wash. :-)

I rub in "stain remover" sometimes for particularly stubborn stains.

Come to think of it, it's amazing how many fabric chemicals we use!

"Textile chemicals" is another alternative but "fabric chemicals" is much more prevalent.

Thanks to Ruth as well, but since it is a patent the context should be quite clear to some one "skilled in the art" as they say! Thank you Ma'am

chemicals for fabrics


Explanation:
I usually like to choose the shortest way to translate things, but sometimes, I believe tranlations need some clear explanation even if the words increase a bit. I know that Joyce is correct for the meaning, but I wonder some people might think it means chemicals made from fabrics (some new kind of recycling or something). So, this is just my suggestion.
