Abstract: A capsule contains an inner core of a fabric antistat/softener material and a melting point depressant and an outer wall of a polycondensation product formed by interfacial polymerization. A liquid fabric conditioning composition containing the aforementioned capsules possesses desirable softening and antistat properties.
Abstract: Starch-thickened compositions containing particulate peroxygen compounds, especially diperazelaic acid, provide stable, effective compositions especially adapted for use as color-safe fabric bleaches at alkaline pH's, e.g., in laundry baths.
Abstract: Non-starch thickened peroxygen bleaches, and articles releasably containing same, especially adapted for use in an automatic dryer are provided.

Abstract: Compositions and processes useful for inhibiting the transfer to fabric articles of solubilized or suspended dyes found in fabric laundering solutions. Such dyes are oxidized by a composition comprising a peroxygen compound, certain aldehydes and ketones, a polyvinyl compound and a buffer compound.
Abstract: Compositions and processes useful for inhibiting the transfer to fabric articles of solubilized or suspended dyes found in fabric laundering solutions. Such dyes are oxidized by a composition comprising a peroxygen compound, certain aldehydes and ketones, a zwitterionic surfactant and a buffer compound.
Abstract: A rinse aid composition containing an organosilane and a low molecular weight monofunctional organic acid is capable of imparting soil release benefits to cooking utensils and tableware rinsed therewith. Food soils adhere to such surfaces less strongly, thereby making them easier to clean. The inclusion of the monofunctional organic acid insures that objectionable spotting or filming does not form on the rinsed objects.

Abstract: Detergent compositions comprising builders and zwitterionic surfactants of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are hydrocarbon groups, n is 1 to 20, M is nitrogen or phosphorus, and X is, for example, sulfate or sulfonate.
Abstract: Detergent compositions comprising surfactants, optional builders, and zwitterionic co-surfactants of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are hydrocarbon groups, n is 1 to 20, M is nitrogen or phosphorus, and X is, for example, sulfate or sulfonate.
Abstract: A process for producing a spray-dried detergent composition containing a water-insoluble aluminosilicate. Sodium carbonate and a water-soluble salt of an organic compound having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms substituted with a sulfate or sulfonate group and at least one carboxyl group are added to an aqueous slurry containing the aluminosilicate and an organic detergent. Granules produced by spray-drying the aqueous slurry are crisp and free-flowing.
Abstract: Hair bleaching compositions containing arginine or various proteins or polypeptides having a high arginine content, a peroxide compound and a bleaching accelerator as essential components.
Abstract: Low pH, non-starch gels containing particulate peroxygen compounds, especially diperazelaic acid, provide safe, effective and stable fabric bleaching compositions for use at alkaline pH's, e.g., in laundry baths.
