An ink jet textile printing ink containing: water; a coloring material; a polymer X which is a water-soluble polymer with a weight-average molecular weight of 6,000 to 35,000, including at least one selected from the group consisting of a structural unit derived from alkylene glycol, a structural unit derived from vinyl alcohol, and the like; a solvent A which is a water-soluble organic solvent with a molecular weight of 160 or less, in which a ratio of the solvent A in all water-soluble organic solvents contained is 70 mass % or greater, a content of the polymer X is greater than 0.8 mass % and 7.0 mass % or less, and a content mass ratio [solvent A/polymer X] is 7.0 to 50.

Described herein are compositions useful for infusing color into nonwoven polyester containing product and methods to do so. Such compositions and methods comprise use of a color infusion composition comprising an antimigrant polymer; pigment; ammonium polyphosphate; and an anionic surfactant comprising phosphate. In certain embodiments, thermoplastic polymer having a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 93.0° C. or less is used to enhance color infusion.

The present invention is directed to a nanoporous cerium oxide nanoparticle (NCeONP) macro-structure containing a plurality of the cerium oxide nanoparticles which define a plurality of macro-structure pores. The NCeONP macro structure may be used to improve pigment and/or dye performance.

The present disclosure provides an ink fluid set containing an aqueous pre-treatment composition, a clear ink, and colored aqueous inkjet inks. This ink fluid set is particularly suitable for printing on polyester, cotton, and blends of cotton and synthetic textiles.

An ink set for textile printing is disclosed which includes a pretreatment liquid containing a metal salt, a water-dispersible resin (A), an organic solvent (B) having an SP value of 10 to 14 (cal/cm.sup.3).sup.1/2 and water, and an ink containing a pigment, a water-dispersible resin (C) having a glass transition point of 10° C. or higher, an organic solvent (D) and water. A method for producing a printed textile item is also disclosed.

A treatment solution composition for ink jet textile printing contains one or more selected from the group consisting of a glycol solvent with a molecular weight of 100 or less and a sugar with a molecular weight of 400 or less, water, and an alkaline agent.

An object of the present invention is to provide a transfer paper which allows smooth removal of a printed transfer paper from a design-printed fabric before steaming; and is unlikely to cause problems such as partial missing, color unevenness, color-development deterioration, etc. of the design on the fabric. Provided is a transfer paper having a substrate and one or more coating layers, the substrate having a base paper and one or more nonaqueous resin layers on one side of the base paper, the one or more coating layers being located on the one or more nonaqueous resin layers, the coating layer located outermost from the substrate, that is, the outermost coating layer, at least comprising a water-soluble polyester resin, a carboxylic acid-modified polyvinyl alcohol resin, an acrylic resin, a starch, and a white pigment, the acrylic resin having a glass transition point (Tg) of 0° C. to 45° C. and a minimum film forming temperature (MFT) of 0° C. to 50° C.

The various aspects of the invention described herein relate to a fixing treatment composition, a method of making the same, a permanent marking system including the same, and a method of using a fixing treatment composition (including but not necessarily limited to the fixing treatment composition of the present invention) to permanently affix one or more inks to a substrate. The various aspects of the invention leave room for error in the application of markers and dyes to substrates and can be used to create permanent designs that will not wash out of said substrates (e.g., fabric).

The problem of this invention is to provide a transfer paper with good close contact to fiber materials and good color density of patterns formed on the fiber materials, good peeling, and no significant difference in texture between patterned and non-patterned areas of the fiber materials.

The present invention provides a transfer paper having a base material with one or more non-aqueous resin laminate layer(s) on one side of a base paper, and one or more coating layer(s) on the laminate layer(s) of the base material, wherein an outermost coating layer, which is positioned outermost in the coating layer(s) with respect to the base material, contains a white pigment and a binder, the white pigment contains at least an amorphous silica, and the binder contains at least five types consisting of a water-soluble polyester resin, a carboxylic acid-modified polyvinyl alcohol resin, an acrylic resin, a hydroxypropyl starch and an alginate.

The present disclosure provides a fluid set for printing on textile. The fluid set contains a pretreatment composition, and a mixture of a pigment and a disperse dye as the colorant. The blending of a pigment with a disperse dye as the colorant together with a suitable pretreatment composition provides better image quality.
