Abstract

Textile fabrics are dyed with a substance comprising a pigment or colorant and a latex serving as a binding agent or color agglutinant which bonds the pigment to the fabric. The latex is rendered thermally sensitive and hence is thermally activatable by the introduction of an alkylene-oxide/urethane copolymer.
