An example of a dye discharge fluid includes a water-soluble organic solvent, a heat activated reducing agent, and water. A pH of the dye discharge fluid is less than 7. The dye discharge fluid may be used with a colored pigmented inkjet ink, a white pigmented inkjet ink, and/or a colored textile fabric, and may be included in a fluid set and/or a printing kit.

A fluid set includes a pre-treatment composition, a fixer composition, and an inkjet ink. The pre-treatment composition includes a wax emulsion or a fluorinated polymer emulsion. The fixer composition includes a cationic polymer and a fixer vehicle. The inkjet ink includes a white pigment, a polymeric binder, and an ink vehicle.

A manufacturing method of decorated natural leather includes applying a base coat on crusted leather, inkjet printing a decorative image on the base coat using one or more pigmented inkjet inks, and applying one or more identification codes.

The invention is directed to a pigment transfer sheet (1) suitable for transferring an image to a textile substrate (2), said transfer sheet comprising a base layer and a transfer layer, said transfer layer being present in an amount of 5 to 20 g/m.sup.2, preferably in an amount of 8 to 15 g/m.sup.2 such as about 12 g/m.sup.2. A further aspect of the present invention is a process wherein this transfer sheet is used for transferring an image from a pigment transfer sheet to a textile substrate to provide a textile product carrying said image, said process comprising a transfer step comprising applying a surface pressure of at least 0.4 bar and heat to the superimposed contacted transfer sheet and textile substrate. Yet another aspect of the invention is a textile product (3) obtainable by the sheet and the process, which textile product has favorable properties like good hand and color fastnesses.

An ink composition for ink jet pigment textile printing contains a dispersion of a self-dispersing carbon black pigment containing a phosphate group. An absolute value of a zeta potential V.sub.1 of the dispersion is 65 mV or less.

Described herein is a printing set comprising a curable transparent pre-treatment composition and a fixer composition. The curable transparent pre-treatment composition comprises a curable polyurethane, wherein the curable polyurethane comprises a copolymer of a polyisocyanate; a polyol comprising at least one reactive group selected from an acrylate group, a methacrylate group, an acrylamide group, a methacrylamide group, a styrene, an allyl group and a combination thereof; and a chain-terminating compound comprising a monoalcohol or a monoamine. The fixer composition comprises a salt of a cation and an anion. Also described herein is a method of printing on a textile and a printed textile substrate.

A fixer fluid can include a fixer vehicle with water, an NH-type or N-alkylated lactam co-solvent, and a phosphate ester surfactant. The fixer fluid can further include from 0.5 wt % to 12 wt % an azetidinium-containing polyamine polymer dispersed in the fixer vehicle.

A fabric treatment composition for preparing a fabric substrate for printing is described. The fabric treatment composition comprises at least one fibre-bonding agent, at least one cross-linking agent and a liquid carrier. A method for printing a fabric substrate is also described. The method comprises applying, to at least one area of a fabric substrate, a fabric treatment composition to form a coating, wherein the fabric treatment composition comprises at least one fibre-bonding agent, at least one cross-linking agent and a carrier liquid; and printing at least one ink composition over the coating to form a printed fabric substrate. A printable fabric medium is also described comprising: a fabric substrate; and a coating formed on at least one side of at least one area of the substrate, wherein the coating comprises or is formed of a composition comprising at least one fibre-bonding agent and at least one cross-linking agent.

An ink, having a viscosity of 2.5 to 15 centipoise at 25° C., for textile printing includes pigment; a water dispersible anionic polymeric resin; a water soluble zero volatile organic compound solvent with a boiling point of 250° C. or greater; a crosslinking agent; and water. The water dispersible polymeric resin has particles with a median volume weighted size of less than 150 nm and a 95.sup.th percentile volume weighted size of less than 250 nm. The water dispersible polymeric resin has an acid number value of 5 to 40, a resin film elongation of 500 to 1200%, and a film tensile strength of 10 to 60 mPa.

An example of a white inkjet ink includes: a non-self-dispersed white pigment; from about 0.005 wt % to about 1 wt %, based on a total weight of the white inkjet ink, of an anionic copolymer dispersant having a weight average molecular weight (Mw) ranging from about 125,000 g/mol to about 30,000,000 g/mol; a polymeric binder; and an aqueous vehicle. The white inkjet ink may be used in a textile printing kit.
