Abstract:
A liquid premix for use in a detergent composition which comprises at least 40% by weight of polyhydroxy fatty acid amide and an effective amount of borate-containing material to prevent crystalization and/or precipitation of the liquid premix when stored for at least 2 weeks at 20 .degree. C., and methods of making same.
Abstract:
The invention is directed to a structured liquid fabric treatment composition comprising as added components one or more silicone-based cationic fabric care ingredients preferably selected from the group consisting of cationic silicone polymers comprising one or more polysiloxane units and one or more quaternary nitrogen units; a structuring system comprising a structuring agent, a nonionic emulsifier and an anionic emulsifier; a cationic scavenging agent for the anionic emulsifier and a liquid carrier.
Abstract:
The invention is directed to aqueous liquid laundry detergent compositions for cleaning and imparting fabric care benefits to fabrics laundered therewith. Such compositions comprise (A) at least one detersive surfactant; (B) droplets of a silicone blend comprising a nitrogen-containing amino or ammonium functionalized polysiloxane and a nitrogen-free non-functionalized polysiloxane; and (C) at least one additional non-silicone laundry adjunct selected from detersive enzymes, dye transfer inhibiting agents, optical brighteners, suds suppressors and combinations thereof. The functionalized polysiloxane component of the silicone blend has a relatively low, i.e., less than 30 mol %, content of reactive/curable groups, a nitrogen content which ranges from 0.05% to 0.30% by weight and a viscosity which ranges from 0.00002 m2/s to 0.2 m2/s. The nitrogen-free non-functionalized polysiloxane material ranges in viscosity from 0.01 m2/sec to 2.0 m2/sec. The silicone blend is preferably used in a pre-formed emulsion which can be added to the balance of the detergent composition to form the droplets of the silicone blend which are dispersed in the detergent composition.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a liquid bleaching composition comprising a peroxycarboxylic acid having at least one aromatic group and a co-agent selected from organic acids, homo or copolymers of acidic monomers and mixtures thereof.
