Abstract

Polymer-printed fabrics are produced by applying to a textile fabric substrate, in a pre-determined pattern, an aqueous admixture consisting essentially of from about 1 and to about 45 percent of a substantially water-soluble acid dyeable polymer having a cationic charge in milliequivalents/gram of polymer of from about 0.01 to about 5. The aqueous admixture is further characterized as having a viscosity of from about 5 to about 50,000 centipoise. The wetted printed substrate is dried to remove substantially all the water and thereafter cured. The cured polymer printed substrate is then dyed with a dye admixture containing an acid dyestuff preferential to the polymer coated portion of the substrate.
