Abstract: A process is disclosed for the heat transfer printing of cellulose-containing fabrics in garment form with disperse dyestuffs, wherein the fabric is treated only on one side by a printing or spraying technique with a formulation containing highly methylated melamine-formaldehyde crosslinking agent, acid catalyst, and other necessary additives. Fabrics with prints that are durable to washing are produced by simultaneously heat transfer printing and curing at about 190.degree. C. to 220.degree. C. for 20-30 seconds.

Abstract: A pretreatment system composed of hexamethoxymethyl melamine, p-toluene sulfonic acid, 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol, triethylamine, butoxy triglycol, and carboxy vinyl polymeric thickener is disclosed, which through application to the fabric surface by a screen printing technique is highly effective in improving the affinity of cellulose-containing textiles for disperse dyestuffs. Fabrics with prints that are durable to washing are produced by simultaneously heat transfer printing and curing at about 190.degree. C. to 220.degree. C. for 20-30 seconds.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for producing dyed fabrics by treating cotton with inorganic phosphorylating agent, curing, and then dyeing to develop the pattern.

Abstract: This invention relates to fabric treatments by which cotton and cellulosic blended fabrics can be provided with wrinkle resistance (smooth dry performance) and color at the same time. In particular, it provides a means by which cellulosic fabrics can be dyed with basic dyestuffs. In addition to a conventional means by which the entire fabric can be dyed with a basic dye, variations are achieved in which one side of the fabric is dyed one color and the other side of the fabric is dyed a second color. The color on the reverse side can be provided by means of either basic dyes or regular cotton dyes. The technique has also been extended for the printing of fabrics.

Abstract: This invention relates to the preparation and use of durable press fabrics with strong acid grafts. The preparation is accomplished by the incorporation of a reactive hydroxyalkyl sulfonic or phosphinic acid in a crosslinking finishing system. As a consequence of this, durable press fabrics are produced with sulfonic or phosphinic acid grafts. Because of these strong acid grafts, these fabrics show improved moisture regain properties, can be dyed with basic dyes, can be whitened with basic optical brighteners and have ion exchange properties for metallic cations.

Abstract: This invention relates to a process for producing crossdyed cotton fabrics. For this purpose, by means of a chemical technique, procedures which permit the dyeing of selective yarns in a fabric have been developed.

Abstract: This invention relates to a process for producing bicolored and tricolored cotton toweling by means of selective dyeing procedures. In this method, initial surface dyeing is followed by overdyeing of the entire fabric.
