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.

Methods and kits are provided for tie-dyeing various materials. A garment or other object is soaked using water or a different liquid, excess water is removed, the object is gathered and tied, and at least one dye is applied to the object. The dyed object is then placed in a heat-resistant container and heated in a heat source such as a microwave. This allows the dye to set more rapidly than via conventional means.

A leuco polymer comprising a polyethylenimine and at least one leuco moiety covalently bound to the polyethylenimine, wherein the polyethylenimine comprises three or more amine nitrogen atoms and 1 mol. % or more of amine hydrogen atoms in the polyethylenimine are replaced with a moiety selected from the group consisting of 2-hydroxypropyl, 1-hydroxypropane-2-yl, and polyalkoxy groups. Methods of making the leuco polymer, laundry care compositions comprising the leuco polymer and methods of treating textiles with such laundry care compositions.

The present invention is related to a novel high fixation ink composition for digital textile printing, which comprises: (A) at least one reactive dye compound with two reactive groups in an amount of 1% to 50% by weight; (B) an organic buffer in an amount of 0.05% to 10% by weight; (C) a humectant in an amount of 10% to 50% by weight; and (D) a solvent in remaining amount. When the aforesaid ink composition is applied in digital textile printing, fixation rate of dye on fabrics is high.

The present invention is related to reactive dyes each of which comprises a dichlorotriazine or chlorotriazine group and has a desired UV/visible absorption spectrum for selectively filtering a certain color light. They are suitable for method for producing colored silicone hydrogel contact lenses each made of a silicone hydrogel material having hydroxyl groups. The present invention is also related to a colored silicone hydrogel contact lens comprising a colored annular ring and/or a colored circular area in which a reactive dye is applied and thereby covalently attached.

The present invention is related to reactive dyes each of which comprises a dichlorotriazine, chlorotriazine or vinylsulphonyl group and is capable of absorbing HEVL. They are suitable for method for producing colored silicone hydrogel contact lenses each made of a silicone hydrogel material having hydroxyl groups. The present invention is also related to a colored silicone hydrogel contact lens comprising a colored circular region in which a reactive dye is applied and thereby covalently attached.
