Abstract: A liquid dish cleaning composition with desirable cleansing properties comprising two C8-18 ethoxylated alkyl ether sulfate surfactants, two anionic surfactant, an amine oxide surfactant, and water.
Abstract: The application relates to a medium viscosity, clear fabric softening composition, comprising (a) from about 1 to 20 wt. % of an oligomeric esterquat, derived from the reaction of an alkanol amine with (i) a polycarboxylic acid; and (ii) a fatty alcohol or a fatty acid; or (iii) a mixture of a fatty alcohol and a fatty acid, followed by partial quaternization (leading to a mixture of oligomeric esteramine and of esterquat); (b) at least about 0.2 wt. % dipropylene glycol, said fabric softening composition being free of isopropanol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol and polyglycols; (c) an effective amount of a water insoluble perfume; and (d) an effective amount of a thickening agent to provide a viscosity of from 80 to 700 mPa.
Abstract: An aqueous fabric softening composition is described having its rheological properties of flow elasticity and viscosity capable of being readily modified as needed independently of each other to satisfy a consumer preference, said composition comprising: a) from about 0.01% to about 25%, by weight, of a cationic fabric softener; b) an effective amount of a mixture of cationic polymers capable of modifying the aforesaid rheological properties, said mixture comprising: (iii) from about 0.01% to about 90%, by weight, of a cationic linear homopolymer that is derivable from the polymerization of acrylic acid and/or methacrylic acid or a linear copolymer that is derivable from the polymerization of acrylic acid and/or methacrylic acid and acrylamide or methacrylamide, said homopolymer or copolyer having a molecular weight of from about 10,000 to about 30 million; and (iv) from about 10% to about 99.

Abstract: The application relates to a medium viscosity, clear fabric softening composition, comprising (a) from about 1 to 20 wt. % of an oligomeric esterquat, derived from the reaction of an alkanol amine with a polycarboxylic acid and with a fatty alcohol and optionally a fatty acid, followed by partial quaternization (leading to a mixture of oligomeric esteramine and of esterquat); (b) at least about 0.2 wt. % dipropylene glycol (c) from about 0.2 to 2.5 wt. % of a water insoluble perfume; and (d) from 0% to an effective amount of a thickening agent or mixture of thickening agents, selected from the group consisting of (i) non-ionic water-soluble cellulosic polymer derived from the condensation of cellulose and ethylene oxide and/or propylene oxide; (ii) ethoxylated and/or propoxylated fatty alcohol polyurethane associative thickener; and (iii) cationic polyacrylate copolymer.
Abstract: A liquid dish cleaning composition with desirable cleansing properties comprising a C8-18 ethoxylated alkyl ether sulfate, two anionic surfactant, a betaine surfactant, an alkyl polyglucoside surfactant, a hydroxy containing organic acid, and water.

Abstract: The application relates to a low viscosity and to a stable fabric softening composition process for the preparation of a stable, and particularly to a viscosity stable, fabric softening composition having a low viscosity, said composition comprising from about 1 to 18 wt. % of an oligomeric esteramine or oligomeric esterquat, obtainable by reaction of an alkanol amine with a polycarboxylic acid and with a fatty alcohol and optionally a fatty acid, optionally followed by quaternization. The process comprises melting said oligomeric esteramine or oligomeric esterquat, dispersing said melted material in hot water, and subsequently cooling. In a second aspect, the application relates to a process wherein a thickening agent or mixture of thickening agents is added to the hot water containing the melted material or after the hot water has cooled. This thickening agent is selected from the group consisting of modified cellulosic polymer, non-ionic viscosity modifier, associative thickener and polyacrylate.
Abstract: The present invention relates to thickened fabric conditioners, which fabric conditioners contain a particular polymeric thickener, which is obtained by polymerizing from 5 to 100 mole percent of a cationic vinyl addition monomer, from 0 to 95 mole percent of acrylamide, and from 70 to 300 ppm of a difunctional vinyl addition monomer cross-linking agent. As compared to such compositions comprising a similar product but obtained from a polymerization reaction using between 5 and 45 ppm cross-linking agent considerable advantages are obtained. Especially, the delivery of fragrance present in the softening composition is more efficiently carried over to the fabrics to be treated.
