The stabilization of β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD) on spacer polyester fabric (three‐dimensional) is an interesting task. Using a crosslinking agent to stabilize β‐CD on the spacer polyester fabric is necessary. This causes an increase in the durability of β‐CD on the fabric. In this research, five different crosslinking agents, including two non‐formaldehyde crosslinking agents (citric acid and 1,2,3,4‐butane tetracarboxylic acid), one formaldehyde‐based crosslinking agent (dimethylol dihydroxyl ethylene urea), and two different commercial siloxane‐based softeners, were used to specify the best yield on the polyester spacer fabric with β‐CD. The results showed that, among the different crosslinking agents, 1,2,3,4‐butane tetracarboxylic acid provided the best durability after 10 washings. The changes in the weight, regain, drop absorption time on the fabric surface, metal‐ion (chrome) absorption, and reactive‐dye absorption were also reported, and scanning electron microscopy pictures were observed. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
