Abstract:
A recording method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is a recording method on a fabric, including an ink adhering step of adhering droplets of an ink composition containing a pigment and resin particles to the fabric; and a treatment solution adhering step of adhering droplets of a treatment solution containing a crosslinking agent to the fabric, in which a maximum weight per droplet of the droplet of the ink composition is 30 ng or less, a maximum weight per droplet of the droplet of the treatment solution is 30 ng or less, and a droplet weight of the treatment solution is equal to or less than a droplet weight of the ink composition.
Abstract:
Embodiments provide thermochromic articles of apparel and methods of production. The article of apparel may comprise a textile layer and a thermochromic portion that includes at least one set of thermochromic molecules that affixed to the textile layer. A heat protective layer may be positioned on a first surface of the thermochromic portion.
Abstract:
Methods of forming garments having one or more stretchable conductive ink patterns. Described herein are method of making garments (including compression garments) having one or more highly stretchable conductive ink pattern formed of a composite of an insulative adhesive, a conductive ink, and an intermediate gradient zone between the adhesive and conductive ink. The conductive ink typically includes between about 40-60% conductive particles, between about 30-50% binder; between about 3-7% solvent; and between about 3-7% thickener. The stretchable conductive ink patterns may be stretched more than twice their length without breaking or rupturing.
Abstract:
Light-reflective materials and methods for their preparation and use are described. The materials can have multiple particles or voids arranged in a crystal structure. The materials can reflect various types of light such as visible light, ultraviolet light, or infrared light.

Abstract:
A composition comprising (a) a homo- or copolymer obtainable by polymerisation of at least one ethylenically un-saturated nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound and (b) a polyethyleneimine, is suitable for afterclearing a printed or dyed textile material, in particular cotton fibres dyed or printed with reactive dyes.
Abstract:
A wall covering includes a composite structure that includes a first layer forming a non-image side of the composite structure and a second layer laminated to the first layer forming an image side of the composite structure. The first layer includes a fabric to facilitate air flow on the non-image side. The image side has a surface roughness of less than or equal to 5 microns by PPS method. The second layer includes one of synthetic polymeric fiber in a non-woven structure and a synthetic polymeric film. The wall covering is a Type-II wall covering that is PVC-free.
Abstract:
A process for aftertreating dyed and/or printed textiles to remove excess portions of colorants comprises utilizing an aqueous formulation comprising at least one graft copolymer having a hydrophilic main chain and also surfactants.
Abstract:
Inkjet inks that have, as principal components, a post printing curing agent and a crosslinked polyurethane dispersoid binder additive with selected diols used to prepare the polyurethane. The diols include a polyether diol, an ionic diol and polycarbonate, polyamide and poly(meth)acrylate diols. These inks can be used for printing on different media, and are particularly suitable for printing on textiles. The printed textiles are particularly durable too key wash fastness and crock testing.
