PROCESS FOR DYEING TEXTILES AND ENZYMES USED THEREIN

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).

Treatment articles and method for using treatment articles

Soft surface articles may be treated during manufacture with treatment articles loaded with treatment chemicals while drying the soft surface articles. This eliminates a step of adding the treatment chemicals to a water bath containing the treatment chemicals. Eliminating this step reduces the amount of water used in the manufacture of the soft surface articles and also removes the requirement of having to process a vat of waste water.

REACTIVE LEUCO COMPOUNDS AND COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING THE SAME
20180118942 · 2018-05-03 ·

A leuco composition comprises at least one reactive leuco compound, which reactive leuco compound comprises a leuco moiety and at least one reactive moiety covalently bound to the leuco moiety. A laundry care composition comprises a laundry care ingredient and a leuco composition. A method of treating a textile comprises the steps of (i) treating a textile with an aqueous solution containing a leuco composition, (ii) optionally, rinsing the textile, and (iii) drying the textile.
