  • Patent number: 5855662
    Abstract: Aqueous pigment preparations comprisinga) 10 to 80% by weight, in particular 20 to 60% by weight, of a pigment,b) 0.1 to 20% by weight, in particular 0.1 to 15% by weight, of an oxyalkylation product which is obtained by addition of optionally substituted styrenes onto optionally substituted phenols and reaction with ethylene oxide and/or propylene oxide,c) 2 to 30% by weight of a polyether-polyol having a boiling point under normal pressure of greater than 150.degree. C. andd) if appropriate further additives, and water as the remainder,which are particularly suitable for pigmenting naturally occurring and synthetic materials, such as emulsion paints, emulsion coatings and emulsion printing inks, have been found.

  • Patent number: 5607482
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for textile printing with aqueous dispersions in which an organic fixing agent is crosslinked with a blocked polyisocyanate having (i) an average molecular weight of about 800 to about 25,000, (ii) a content of blocked isocyanate groups, calculated as free NCO and based on non-blocked polyisocyanate, corresponding to an NCO content of about 5 to about 20% by weight, (iii) an ionic group content of about 1 to about 75 milliequivalents per 100 g of blocked polyisocyanate, and (iv) a content of polyalkylene oxide units of about 1 to about 20% by weight, based on blocked polyisocyanate, said blocked polyisocyanate being obtained by the reaction of(a) organic polyisocyanates,(b) isocyanate-reactive compounds containing (potential) ionic groups,(c) polyalkylene ether alcohols,(d) NCO blocking agents, and(e) optionally, isocyanate-reactive compounds that are different from components (b), (c), and (d).

  • Patent number: 5556935
    Abstract: The present invention relates to textile printing pastes containing modified polyisocyanates, modified polycarbodiimides, or trifunctional polyepoxides as crosslinking agents for the binders present therein.

  • Patent number: 5344620
    Abstract: Water-soluble crosslinkable compounds obtainable by reaction of reactive products which contain halogenohydrin groups and have been obtained by reacting polyamines and epihalogenohydrin or 1,3-dihalogeno-2-hydroxy-propane with inorganic bases and subsequently reacting the resulting products with inorganic acids and/or organic acids, can be used as pigment binders and/or crosslinking agents in textile printing pastes.
