A textile material comprises a plurality of yarns, the yarns containing an intimate blend of dyed polyphenylene sulfide fibers and cellulosic fibers. The dyed polyphenylene sulfide fibers comprising a disperse dye that is distributed substantially evenly across the cross-sectional area of the fibers. A method for dyeing textile materials containing polyphenylene sulfide fibers comprises the steps of (a) providing a textile material comprising yarns which contain an intimate blend of polyphenylene sulfide fibers and cellulosic fibers, (b) providing a dye liquor comprising a liquid medium and a disperse dye, (c) applying the dye liquor to the textile material, (d) heating the textile material under ambient atmosphere to a temperature sufficient to evaporate substantially all of the liquid medium from the textile material, and (e) heating the textile material under ambient atmosphere to a temperature of about 180° C. or more to fix the disperse dye to the polyphenylene sulfide fibers.

The present disclosure pertains to an aqueous inkjet ink containing a pigment as colorant, a polymeric dispersant, a polymeric binder, and a water-insoluble additive. The inks show improved properties for printing on paper and textile.

A textile dyeing process is described for dyeing a textile material, product or article consisting of animal fibers, comprising the steps of dipping said textile material, product or article into a dyeing bath comprising at least one detergent substance, a wetting substance, a leveling substance and an acidity regulator; adding to the dyeing bath a coloring substance approved for food use; subjecting the dyed textile material, product or article to washes; and finally subjecting the dyed textile material, product or article to a color fixing treatment.

An ink jet composition according to the present disclosure contains a flameproofing agent and resin particles. The resin particles are preferably urethanic resin particles. It is preferable that a urethanic resin making up the urethanic resin particles is a urethanic resin containing a crosslinking group and the crosslinking group is one or more selected from the group consisting of a blocked isocyanate group and a silanol group. The urethanic resin making up the urethanic resin particles preferably has a polycarbonate skeleton.

An ink jet ink composition contains a dye having an azo group, water, and a hindered amine compound having a radical. The dissolved nitrogen concentration of the ink composition is 10 ppm or less.

An ink jet textile printing method includes recording by applying an ink composition containing a dye to a front surface of a fabric by an ink jet method and applying a liquid penetrant to the front surface or a rear surface of the fabric before or after the recording. The liquid penetrant includes a nitrogen compound having a boiling point of 230 to 260° C. and an alkyl polyol having a boiling point of 230 to 260° C. and does not substantially include alkyl polyols having a boiling point higher than 260° C.

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.

A moisture-sensed shrinking ink applied to a digital printing process for fabric has a viscosity between 2.5 cP and 10.0 cP and a surface tension between 22 dyne/cm and 32 dyne/cm, in which the moisture-sensed shrinking ink includes 15 parts by weight to 35 parts by weight of a moisture-sensed shrinking resin and 65 parts by weight to 85 parts by weight of water.

The present disclosure provides a moisture-sensed deforming fabric which includes a base cloth and a moisture-sensed shrinking ink. The moisture-sensed shrinking ink is jetted on one of surfaces of the base cloth by a digital printing process, and the moisture-sensed shrinking ink forms a hydrophilic region on the surface of the base cloth.

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).
