A liquid fabric treatment composition including a hydrocarbon wax, a crosslinking agent, and a polyester warp sizing agent. The liquid fabric treatment composition may include a disperse dye. Methods of using these compositions for dyeing cellulose-containing fabric with a disperse dye include contacting a fabric containing cellulose with a liquid fabric treatment composition to yield a pretreated fabric, and heating the pretreated fabric to yield a treated fabric. The treated fabric contains a urethane compound formed by a reaction of the hydrocarbon wax, the crosslinking agent, and the cellulose of the fabric.

The present invention provides a coloured fibre comprising one or more composite filaments of cellulose and cellulose acetate, wherein the colour is effected by a disperse dye.

A fabric has enhanced response characteristics for laser finishing. The fabric can be denim for denim apparel such as jeans. Software and lasers are used to finish apparel made of the fabric to produce a desired wear or distressing pattern or other design. The fabric allows for relatively fast color change in response to the laser, color changes in hue from indigo blue to white, many grayscale levels, and maintains strength and stretch properties. A method used to make the fabric includes spinning, dyeing, and weaving yarns in such a way to obtain the desired enhanced response characteristics for laser finishing.

A fluid set for textile printing includes an aqueous inkjet ink containing a pigment stabilized by anionic dispersing groups and an aqueous pre-treatment liquid. The aqueous pre-treatment liquid includes a capsule having a core includinq a thermally reactive crosslinker and a polymeric shell stabilized by cationic dispersing groups.

An aqueous dispersion of a capsule is composed of a polymeric shell surrounding a core, the core includes one or more chemical reactants capable of forming a reaction product upon application of heat and/or radiation and the shell is stabilized by cationic dispersing groups.
