Disclosed herein is an ink-jet recording process for forming an image by applying an ink to a recording medium in accordance with an ink-jet recording system, comprising the steps of: (A) applying an ink containing a coloring material to the recording medium in accordance with the ink-jet recording system; and (B) applying a liquid composition different from the ink to an ink-applying region of the recording medium in accordance with the ink-jet recording system, wherein the liquid composition is applied in an amount less than 50% by volume of the amount of the ink to be applied to the ink-applying area.

Pigment suitable for use in coating compositions for inkjet recording media. Surfaces of an inorganic particulate are interacted with a water-soluble polyvalent metal salt in an aqueous medium. The treated particle surfaces have a significant cationic surface charge imparted to them. The salt is a salt of a metal of Group II or Group III of the Periodic Table. Inkjet recording media treated with a coating composition containing the above pigment provide high density, fast-drying, and non-feathering ink images with suitable water fastness, while the coating compositions also offer cost advantages and improved rheology at higher pigment levels over coatings based on silica pigments.

Specific PEHAM dendrimers are used in a formulation with an active agent for agricultural purposes, particularly for increasing the efficacy of the active agent in various ways, such as by improving solubility of the active agent in the formulation, by improving adhesion and penetration of the active agent to plant surfaces, by improving the water-fastness of the active agent to the plant or seed, by increasing soil penetration of the active agent to reach the plant roots or under soil parts, or by reducing soil adhesion of the active agent to reach the plant roots or under soil parts, or reducing enzymatic degradation of the active agent by the plant or seed or microorganisms in the soil.

The present invention relates to a water-soluble azo compound represented by the following formula (1):

[wherein, n denotes 1 or 2, x denotes 2 to 4 and A denotes a divalent bonding group represented by one of the following general formulas (2) to (4):

(Wherein, y denotes an integer number of 2 to 6 and w denotes an integer number of 1 to 4)]

or a salt thereof, and an ink composition containing it; it shows a hue having high vividness suitable for inkjet recording and provides a recorded matter having high water fastness, and the ink composition prepared using it is excellent in storage stability.

The present invention relates to anisotropic colorants and ink-jet ink compositions that comprise the anisotropic colorants. These anisotropic colorants are highly stable and can be designed to provide enhanced chroma, gloss, gloss uniformity, smearfastness, print quality, drytime, and improved resistance to water when applied to a media. Moreover, inks formulated with these new colorants are useful in ink-jet printing, including thermal ink jet printing, piezoelectric ink jet printing, and continuous ink jet printing.

An ink jet ink composition which provides an image having an improved water-fastness comprising water, an anionic, water-soluble dye and from about 0.1 to about 10% by weight of a hardener.

An ink jet printing process for improving the water-fastness of an ink jet image comprising: a) providing an ink jet recording element comprising a support having thereon an image-recording layer comprising a cross-linkable polymer of acetoacetylated poly(vinyl alcohol) and a mordant, b) applying liquid ink droplets of an anionic, water-soluble dye on the image-recording layer in an image-wise manner, and c) submerging the element in an aqueous solution of a hardener to cross-link the binder.

Disclosed is an aqueous pigment dispersion including water and a base metal pigment, in which the base metal pigment is a base metal pigment which is surface-treated with a fluorine-based compound, and when performing an X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy analysis of a base metal pigment surface, a concentration of a fluorine element is 21 atm % to 35 atm %.

The present invention belongs to the field of paper making technology, and is especially technological process of dyeing wood pulp paper for making non-woven material. The technological process includes the steps of pulping, dyeing, fixing color, feeding, squeezing, stoving, etc. The dyeing step adopts the dye of DF turquoise blue, GDFN blue, RF bright blue, 3GSFN yellow or their mixture; and the color fixing agent is TF232 color fixing agent. The dyed product has homogeneous color, high color fastness, stable quality, low cost and other advantages.

There is described a recording sheet for ink jet printing comprising a polyethylene coated paper support having coated onto the front side of said support one ink receiving layer comprising a mixture of gelatin and rice starch.

The present invention is related to a complexating system comprising a tannin immobilised on a solid support by means of a bifunctional spacer which is covalently bound from one hand to said solid support by a first function and from the other hand to said tannin by a second function, wherein the tannin is a naturally occurring tannin and exhibits at least six hydroxyl groups. Said complexating system can be used in particular for chelating metals and proteins, as an antioxidant, as a radical scavenger or as an antibacterial. More specifically, applications can be found in the clarification and stabilisation of beverages, the treatment of textiles, or the separation and/or purification of proteins and/or metals.

The invention provides methods for providing improved image quality and water resistance of dye based ink images on substrates using aqueous dispersed mordants and dispersed hydrophobic materials.

The invention belongs to the technical field of production and application of fabric and particularly discloses an open-width continuous washing system. The system comprises a cloth feeding assembly, a water washing machine, a first wash water box, a second wash water box, a first single-drum wash water box, a second single-drum wash water box and a cloth discharging assembly. The open-width continuous washing system has the beneficial effects as follows: by means of the system, continuous washing can be realized for fabric printing and dyeing, washing processing technique requirements of high-grade knitted fabric are met, the defect that the conventional knitted fabric washing processing process is required to be performed in batches and in different vats is overcome, the production efficiency is improved, and the production time is saved; besides, consumption of water, electricity and steam is reduced, the purposes of high efficiency, low energy consumption, low emission and environmental protection are achieved, and water fastness, dry/wet rub fastness and six-fiber test performance are improved to 0.5-1 level; practice proves that compared with a conventional dyeing vat process, the system has the advantages that during continuous washing on the basis of the yield of 15 tons every day, about 28 tons of water is saved for each ton of cloth by use of the equipment, about 126,000 tons of water can be saved every year, and the water saving and emission reduction effects are very remarkable.
