Abstract: Provided are temporary tattoos comprising cosmetic inkjet ink and methods of making thereof. The method of making the temporary tattoo may comprise printing, using an inkjet printer, an image made from a cosmetic inkjet ink on a side of a transfer film that comprises an inkjet receptive coating. The image printed on the transfer film may be dried to allow the image to absorb into the coating. Once dried, an adhesive may be applied to the side of the transfer film comprising the inkjet receptive coating to cover the image. Thus, the temporary tattoo may comprise a transfer film comprising an inkjet receptive coating, and an adhesive film.

Abstract: Provided are direct to film printing methods and processes for printing dye sublimation ink comprising: inkjet printing a design on a polymer coated film using dye sublimation ink; applying a polyester powder to the printed design on the polymer coated film to form a powdered printed design; melting the polyester powder; and transferring the powdered printed design from the polymer coated film to a substrate.

Abstract: Provided are pretreatment compositions, pretreated fabrics, and methods of pretreating fabrics for improved printing quality. Pretreated fabrics include natural fiber fabric having a polymer coating. Methods of pretreating fabrics include spraying natural fiber fabric with a pretreatment composition that comprises one or more latex polymers, a coalescing agent composition, a surfactant composition, an ultraviolet stabilizer composition, an antioxidant composition, and a solvent.

Abstract: Provided are dye sublimation ink compositions, methods of preparing dye sublimation ink compositions, and methods of printing with dye sublimation ink compositions. Methods of printing with dye sublimation ink compositions includes printing on natural fabrics. Dye sublimation ink compositions comprise one or more latexes; a humectant composition; a surfactant composition; a biocide composition; a buffer composition; and a solvent.
