Abstract: Liquid textile treatment compositions in the form of isotropic solutions comprising water-insoluble di-C.sub.16 -C.sub.24 optionally hydroxy-substituted alkyl, alkaryl or alkenyl cationic fabric softener, at least about 70% of the fabric softener consisting of one or more components together having a melting completion temperature of less than about 20.degree. C., a water-insoluble nonionic extender, especially C.sub.10 -C.sub.40 hydrocarbons or esters of mono- or polyhydric alcohols with C.sub.8 -C.sub.24 fatty acids, and a water-miscible organic solvent. The concentrates have improved formulation stability and dispersibility combined with excellent fabric softening characteristics.

Abstract: Laundry detergent compositions are provided which contain an effective textile softening agent which does not reduce their cleaning performance. The softening agent comprises a specified class of tertiary amines together with a smectite-type clay.

Abstract: A laundry detergent composition providing cleaning and softening of textiles comprises an anionic surfactant, a water-insoluble di C.sub.10 -C.sub.26 tertiary amine, and a water-soluble cationic compound which may be a mono C.sub.10 -C.sub.18 alkyl primary, secondary or tertiary amine, or a water-soluble salt thereof or a water-soluble mono C.sub.8 -C.sub.16 alkyl quaternary ammonium compound. A smectite clay serving as an additional textile softening agent and a detergent builder salt are preferred components of the granular form of the composition which may contain other conventional detergent ingredients.

Abstract: Liquid detergent compositions containing specific mixtures of selected anionic, nonionic and water-soluble cationic surfactants. The compositions are especially effective in removing greasy soil from fabrics.

Abstract: Textile softening detergent compositions comprise a nonionic detergent, a cationic textile softener, a builder and a water-soluble polyphosphonic acid of the formula ##STR1## wherein n is 2 or more and Z is an organic group of effective covalency n, or a water-soluble salt thereof, and are preferably made by spray drying a mixture of the nonionic detergent and cationic softener on to spray dried carrier granules comprising at least part of the builders.

Abstract: Additive products are provided for use in the washing of textiles comprising a mixture of an organic peroxy bleach precursor, a cationic surfactant and an alkoxylated nonionic surfactant of HLB 8-17 in water releasable combination with a non-particulate substrate, the additive products being adapted for addition to conventional inorganic persalt-containing detergent liquors to enhance the removal of bleachable and greasy stains.
