A printing process for printing with ink an image on a glove formed by a dipping process, wherein the image is first printed on a former and transferred to the glove during dipping.

The present invention relates to production of textile with high rate of evaporation of moisture content. In this invention, a textile substrate is coated with Near Infrared (NIR) energy absorbing agent to increase the surface temperature of substrate and enhance the evaporation of moisture from the textile substrate.

The invention herein provides for an improved dye material composed of a dry particulate mixture of azo and phthalocyanine dyes for concrete surface applications.
