Resist printing on hydrophobic fibre materials

Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for printing hydrophobic fibre materials with disperse dyes, which comprises a procedure in which the fibre materials A) are dyed over the entire area or printed over the entire area with a disperse dye and B) are printed in areas with a printing paste comprising at least one disperse dye, at least one cationic dyeing assistant and at least one nonionic detergent it being possible for steps A) and B) to be carried out in any sequence and for step B) to be repeated several times with different dyes, the fibre material treated in this way is dried and the dye is then fixed on the fibre material by a heat treatment. Multicolored prints with sharp contours and very good fastnesses to hot light are obtained by the process according to the invention.
