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.

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: A stable, pourable and water dispersible liquid fabric softening composition is provided comprising (a) from about 2% to about 25% of one or more fabric softening compounds selected from among quaternary ammonium compounds and amine compounds; (b) from 0 to about 10% of a co-softening ingredient; and (c) from about 0.02% to about 3% of a defined fatty alcohol ethoxylate-diurethane polymer as a thickener to provide commercially desirable viscosities without adversely affecting the physical stability of the composition. The balance of the composition is comprised of water and optional ingredients such as an acid, an emulsifier and adjuvants.
