Pigment ink.
ink that binds color to the fiber surface with a resin
Ink that carries solid color particles bound to the fiber surface by a resin, rather than dyeing the fiber itself the way reactive dye does. It is the ink family behind DTG and most digital textile printing; because the resin sits on top of the fiber rather than inside it, cure temperature and dwell time, not the ink alone, decide whether the print survives a wash.
