| 20090142552 | Method of Depositing Materials on a Textile Substrate - A method of providing deposits of a functional composition on a textile substrate ( | 06-04-2009 |
| 20090162621 | Method for Providing a Localised Finish on Textile Article - A method of producing a textile article having a localised finish is described. The method comprises providing a continuous supply of a textile substrate, providing an array of digital nozzles, supplying a finishing composition to the nozzles and selectively depositing the finishing composition from the nozzles in a series of droplets to deposit a first predetermined pattern of droplets on a selected area of the substrate to endow a functional characteristic on the selected areas. In this way, it is possible to ensure that only those areas receive the finishing composition that ultimately require it. Usage of valuable chemicals and process time can hereby be reduced. | 06-25-2009 |
| 20090280706 | Method for Providing a Flame Retardant Finish of a Textile Article - A method of producing a textile article having a flame retardant finish comprising: providing a continuous supply of a textile substrate having a width; providing an array of digital nozzles over the width of the textile article; supplying a flame retardant formulation to the nozzles; and selectively dispensing the flame retardant formulation from the nozzles in a series of droplets to deposit a predetermined pattern of droplets on the substrate. | 11-12-2009 |
| 20090298368 | Composition for Continuous Inkjet Finishing of a Textile Article - A finishing composition is proposed for deposition by continuous flow inkjet technique onto a textile substrate. The composition comprises a dispersion or emulsion of a functional finishing agent in a vehicle and the jetted composition has a conductivity of greater than 500 μS/cm. The size of particles in the dispersion or emulsion of the finishing composition is less than about 5 microns. By ensuring sufficient fineness of the particles, effective and reliable droplet deposition may proceed without clogging of the nozzles. | 12-03-2009 |
