The present disclosure sets forth ink compositions having a biodegradable polyurethane binder that can be used for textile printing. In one example, an ink composition can include water, an organic co-solvent, a colorant, and a biodegradable polyurethane binder. The biodegradable polyurethane binder can include prepolymer segments including polymerized monomers of a diisocyanate and a diol. The diol can include to terminal 6-hydroxyhexanoate groups linked by an organic linking group. Chain extenders can connect the prepolymer segments. The chain extenders can include a polymerized diamine. |
