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.

A process for the preparation of coloured and expanded thermoplastic polyurethane (coloured ETPU) material which comprises the following steps: a) providing thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) material and at least one gaseous fluid wherein the melting temperature of the TPU material is above the supercritical temperature of the at least one gaseous fluid b) placing the TPU material in an autoclave together with a colorant and/or a fluorescent whitening agent (FWA), wherein the colorant is selected from at least one of a disperse dye, an acid dye and a pigment; c) increasing the pressure in the autoclave by introducing the at least one gaseous fluid at a temperature below the melting point of the TPU material and at least above the supercritical temperature of the at least one gaseous fluid at the applied pressure (saturation step); and d) allowing the non-expanded TPU material to saturate; and e) decreasing the pressure in the autoclave down to ambient pressure at a temperature between the melting temperature and the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the TPU material at such a rate that the TPU material expands (expansion step) to obtain coloured ETPU material f) removing the coloured ETPU material from the autoclave

Novel inkjet ink compositions for forming an image in a form of an elastic film attached to a surface of a stretchable and/or flexible substrate and processes utilizing same for inkjet printing color images on various substrates such as colored and absorptive or impregnable stretchable materials, which are characterized by heightened efficiency in process time, ink and energy consumption, as well as products having durable, wash-fast and abrasion-fast images printed thereon by the process, are disclosed. The novel ink compositions comprise a first part, which contains a property-adjusting agent and a carrier, and a second part which contains an emulsified property-sensitive proto-elastomeric film-forming agent, a colorant and a carrier, such that the second part congeals upon contact with the property-adjusting agent. The second part is digitally applied to the substrate less than 1 second following the application of the first part to the substrate.

A digital control method is to accurately calculate the real-time addition amount of each dye in the solution replenishment system in the whole dyeing process based on the initial dyeing rate of each dye, and replenish the dye solution according to the real-time addition amount. A digital control system includes an automatic calculation K.sub.0,n value unit, a central processing unit and a replenishment pump. The automatic calculation K.sub.0,n value unit is composed of a dye solution concentration detection instrument, a sensor I and a BP neural network model. The BP neural network model is a BP neural network trained by a dye database. The automatic calculation K.sub.0,n value unit transmits the K.sub.0,n value to the central processing unit, calculates the replenishment amount through the central processing unit, and controls the replenishment pump to replenish the solution.

Disclosed are a method for dyeing and finishing a textile and a textile. The method includes steps of heating a bath liquid to a first temperature, and immersing a textile to be treated in the bath liquid for a first time; maintaining the bath liquid at the first temperature, adding a dye, a protective additive and a first part of a dyeing alkali agent sequentially thereto at a certain interval, and further immersing for a second time; heating the bath liquid to a second temperature at a first heating rate, then adding a second part of the dyeing alkali agent thereto, further immersing for a third time, and then taking out to obtain a dyed textile; washing and finishing the dyed textile to obtain a dyed and finished textile, wherein the dyeing alkali agent is sodium carbonate.

Disclosed is an environmentally friendly method that enables the pre-treatment and dyeing processes applied to cellulosic products used in the production of textile products such as towels, bathrobes to be carried out in a single bath with natural, biological preparations.

A textile dyeing process is described for dyeing a textile material, product or article consisting of animal fibers, comprising the steps of dipping said textile material, product or article into a dyeing bath comprising at least one detergent substance, a wetting substance, a leveling substance and an acidity regulator; adding to the dyeing bath a coloring substance approved for food use; subjecting the dyed textile material, product or article to washes; and finally subjecting the dyed textile material, product or article to a color fixing treatment.
