The present invention relates to a process for the printing or coloring of substrates, wherein substrates to be printed or colored are brought into contact withn (A) at least one treated pigment in particulate form which is prepared by a process comprising the following steps:n a) dispersion of at least one pigment in particulate form with at least one non-ionic surfactant, b) mixing of the resulting dispersion of pigment in particulate form and non-ionic surfactant with an aqueous medium, c) polymerization of at least one first monomer or copolymerization of a first mixture of comonomers in the presence of a mixture according to b), water-insoluble polymer or copolymer being formed on the surface of the pigment in particulate form, and d) addition of at least one second monomer or a second mixture of comonomers and polymerization or copolymerization, and also with n (B) at least one compound which is capable of crosslinking under the action of thermal energy or after the addition of a catalyst. |
