Described is a method for decoloring of a textile material, the method includes the steps of: providing a textile material; providing an alkaline solution containing one or more anionic polyelectrolytes; treating the textile material in the alkaline solution during a treatment period; and recovering at least some of the textile material from the alkaline solution.

An ink jet textile printing penetrant includes a water-soluble organic solvent; a surfactant; and one type or two or more types selected from the group consisting of a chelating agent and an aromatic compound.

The present invention relates to a transfer foil for transferring images onto solid substrates (transfer printing), such as textile supports, in particular T-shirts, metallic supports or plastic, in particular signs, ceramic supports, in particular cups and plates, etc., comprising a two-dimensional carrier based on polyester, based on polyether ether ketones or based on a cellulose-based material, having a layer (a) which is arranged on at least one of the carrier surfaces and which is made of a cross-linked, at least partially hydrolysed polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) polymer, The present invention also relates to the use of same. A further subject matter of the present invention is a ready-to-use system for transfer printing, comprising a transfer foil and an image applied thereto, in particular printed thereon, and a hot melt adhesive.

The present invention relates to a process wherein one or more dye precursors, e.g., indole, are provided to a textile and converted by one or more enzymes, e.g., an oxidizing enzyme, to provide the textile with a dye, e.g. indigo. At least the oxidizing enzyme is a hybrid enzyme including a binding domain that is suitable to bind the enzyme to the textile and/or increase the affinity of the enzyme for the textile, in particular, a cellulose binding domain (CBD).

The present invention provides water-based ink and coating compositions comprising greater than 70 wt % natural materials. The ink and coating compositions of the present invention are suitable for printing on feminine care products, baby care products, and other personal care products.
