Abstract

A treatment liquid composition for use in ink jet pigment textile printing and used by attaching it to fabric contains a cationic compound, at least one compound selected from polyvinylpyrrolidones, polyethylene oxides, carboxymethyl celluloses, hydroxyethyl celluloses, and polyvinyl alcohols, and water. The fabric contains polyester.

Claims (23)

1. A treatment liquid composition for use in ink jet pigment textile printing and used by attaching the composition to fabric, the composition comprising:

at least one cationic compound;

at least one compound selected from polyvinylpyrrolidones, polyethylene oxides, carboxymethyl celluloses, hydroxyethyl celluloses, and polyvinyl alcohols;

a surfactant having an HLB of 13 or more, and

water, wherein

the fabric contains polyester.

2. The treatment liquid composition according to claim 1 , wherein the composition is for use in textile printing with a white pigment ink.

3. An ink jet textile printing method comprising attaching the treatment liquid composition according to claim 2 to fabric.

4. The treatment liquid composition according to claim 1 , wherein the fabric is colored fabric.

5. An ink jet textile printing method comprising attaching the treatment liquid composition according to claim 4 to fabric.

6. The treatment liquid composition according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one cationic compound is at least one of multivalent metal salts and cationic polymers.

7. An ink jet textile printing method comprising attaching the treatment liquid composition according to claim 6 to fabric.

8. The treatment liquid composition according to claim 1 , wherein an amount of the at least one compound selected from polyvinylpyrrolidones, polyethylene oxides, carboxymethyl celluloses, hydroxyethyl celluloses, and polyvinyl alcohols is 0.5% by mass or more and 6.0% by mass or less of a total mass of the treatment liquid composition.

9. An ink jet textile printing method comprising attaching the treatment liquid composition according to claim 8 to fabric.

10. The treatment liquid composition according to claim 1 , the composition further comprising fine particles of resin.

11. An ink jet textile printing method comprising attaching the treatment liquid composition according to claim 10 to fabric.

12. An ink jet textile printing method comprising attaching the treatment liquid composition according to claim 1 to fabric.

13. The ink jet textile printing method according to claim 12 , the method further comprising, after the attaching the treatment liquid composition to the fabric, heating at a temperature of 140° C. or less.

14. The ink jet textile printing method according to claim 12 , the method further comprising attaching a white pigment ink by ink jetting to a region to which the treatment liquid composition has been attached.

15. The ink jet textile printing method according to claim 14 , wherein an amount of the white pigment ink attached to the fabric is 500 g/m 2 or less.

16. The treatment liquid composition according to claim 1 , wherein the composition is colorless.

17. The treatment liquid composition according to claim 1 , wherein the amount of the surfactant is 0.01% by mass or more and 0.3% by mass or less relative to a total mass of the treatment liquid.

18. The treatment liquid composition according to claim 1 , wherein the surfactant is at least one selected from an acetylene-glycol surfactant, a fluorinated surfactant, and a silicone surfactant.
