Reactive ink is a permanent ink made from highly colored organic substances and is preferably used for printing on textiles such as cotton, rayon, cellulose, viscose, linen, and silk and other fibers at the printing studios or home. These inks have high demand in the textile printing market due to the coloration and fastness properties. In addition, to achieve high color fastness and speed up the process some printing studios use steam or cooking fixing, which reduces the time to cut off ink hydrolysis. Moreover, the reactive inks reduce wastage of time and are a cleaner, safer, and environmentally friendly alternative to other traditional inks. The industry has been continuously innovating new ink for the printing process which can provide more technically and attractive inks at an economical price.
