Abstract

A dye-receiving material comprising:a support comprising synthetic fibers; and a three-dimensional network entangled with at least some of the fibers contained in the support. The three-dimensional network comprises a first polymer that is cross-linked by a second polymer; wherein the first polymer is a polyamine comprising primary amine groups, the first polymer being cationic and water soluble; and the second polymer is a water soluble polymer that is different from the first polymer. The second polymer containing repeating units comprising halohydrin and/or epoxide groups that are capable of forming covalent cross-links with the primary amine groups of the first polymer. Low amounts of cross-linking components are needed for high dye pick-up efficiency.
