Printing, of textiles

Adhesive Transfer Processes. Many polymers, whether dehberately or accidentally, are adhesives, so that much of the adhesive industry can be regarded as a part of the mbber and plastics industry. However, there are several important material-transfer appHcations involving polymer products that are so critically dependent on controlled adhesion that they merit specific mention in that category. They include hot stamping foils, release coatings for pressure-sensitive adhesive products, photocopier materials, transfer coatings, and transfer printing of textiles. 

Water-soluble phthalocyanine dyes may contain only sulfonic acid groups but normally contain both sulfonic acid and sulfonamido groups. They are used as direct dyes for paper and as reactive dyes for cotton. Representative examples are Cl Direct Blue 199 (38) and Cl Reactive Blue 71 (39). These dyes are also used for the ink jet printing of textiles (see Section 9.12.6.2).
