The present disclosure provides an ink fluid set containing an aqueous pre-treatment composition, a clear ink, and colored aqueous inkjet inks. This ink fluid set is particularly suitable for printing on polyester, cotton, and blends of cotton and synthetic textiles.

Disclosed herein is a method for dyeing and removing colored impurities, which includes providing a polyester fabric and an adsorption material, spraying a coloring material onto a surface of the polyester fabric to form a colored layer, subjecting the polyester fabric thus dyed to a heating treatment for the colored layer to adhere to the surface of the polyester fabric, attaching or applying the adsorption material onto the colored layer and subsequently heating and/or applying a pressure to the adsorption material so that the adsorption material is coated on the colored layer to adsorb colored impurities therefrom, and removing the adsorption material.

A system and methods are provided for repurposing a colored thread, including determining a base-to-target ink formula that specifies proportions of one or more inks to apply in re-coloring the colored thread from a base color to a target color.

The present invention relates to a process for the production of a dyed biopolymer comprising the steps of providing at least one biopolymer-producing microorganism, providing at least one dye-producing microorganism, culturing said at least one biopolymer-producing microorganism to produce at least a biopolymer, and culturing said dye-producing microorganism wherein said dye-producing microorganism produce at least a dye suitable to dye at least part of said biopolymer, whereby a dyed biopolymer is obtained. The present invention also relates to a dyed biopolymer, to process for the production of a dyed composite article comprising at least the dyed biopolymer and to articles comprising the dyed biopolymer.

A dispersion device configured to disperse a coloring material to a cloth substrate, comprising a hollow housing that contains the coloring material therein, the hollow housing being configured to fracture upon application of a force to the housing and disperse the coloring material to the cloth substrate to color the cloth substrate.

The present disclosure relates to fibrous structures including active agents and having a graphic printed thereon. In some embodiments, a nonwoven web may include a fibrous structure comprising filaments. In turn, the filaments may include filament forming material, and an active agent releasable from the filaments when exposed to conditions of intended use. In addition, a graphic may be printed directly onto the fibrous structure.

The present disclosure provides a method for processing an all-polyester fiber cotton-like fabric with sunlight resistance. The method includes: 1) weaving a PTT/PET bicomponent composite stretch yarn into a fabric; 2) dyeing processing the fabric; and 3) finalizing and finishing, wherein the finalizing and finishing comprises: a) preparing a finishing liquor obtained by mixing a crosslinking agent and an emulsion of benzophenone-containing polyorganosiloxane; b) padding the fabric; and c) drying and finalizing at a high temperature.

In various aspects, the present disclosure relates to fibers and fabric media comprising photoactivatable agents and to fibers and fabric media that are photoactivatable by photoactivation of the photoactivatable agents. In some instances, the fibers and the fabric media have photoactivatable agents present on their surface (e.g., the fiber/fabric is coated or sprayed with the photoactivatable agents or the fiber/fabric is dipped into a composition or a formulation comprising the photoactivatable agent). In other instances, the photoactivatable agents are incorporated into the materials making the fibers (e.g., the photoactivatable agents are mixed/compounded with the materials making the fibers). The photoactivatable fibers of the present disclosure comprise at least one thermoplastic polymer and at least photoactivatable agent that absorbs and emits light between about 400 nm and about 800 nm.

The invention discloses a method for treating an animal substrate comprising: agitating the moistened animal substrate with an aqueous treatment formulation and a solid particulate material in a sealed apparatus, wherein the aqueous treatment formulation comprises at least one colorant. There is also disclosed an animal substrate obtained by the method and finished leather goods obtained by the method.
