  • Patent number: 7300594
    Abstract: A process for purifying a lipophilic fluid employing a functionalized fabric treating agent. The functionalized fabric treating agent is capable of delivering fabric treating benefits in a non-aqueous fabric article treatment process and is designed for easy removal from the non-aqueous solvent after the fabric article treatment process. Laundry soils can also be removed by this process. The present invention also relates to a fabric treatment composition containing the functionalized fabric treating agent.

  • Patent number: 6106814
    Abstract: Provided are leave-on hair care compositions which can impart enhanced hair conditioning and damage protection, while being formulated in a low viscosity product. In particular, the atomizible leave-on hair care composition comprise: (i) from about 0.1% to about 10%, by weight, of a cationic crosslinked polymeric conditioning agent comprising the monomer units (A).sub.m (B).sub.n (C).sub.p and a crosslinking agent wherein: (A) is a dialkylaminoalkyl acrylate monomer or a quaternary ammonium or acid addition salt thereof; (B) is a dialkylaminoalkyl methacrylate monomer or a quaternary ammonium or acid addition salt thereof; (C) is a nonionic monomer polymerizable with (A) or (B); m, n, and p are independently zero or greater, but at least one of m or n is one or greater; (ii) from about 0.1% to about 10%, by weight, of a salt; and (iii) from about 0.0001% to about 0.05% of at least one polyalkylene glycol corresponding to the structure ##STR1## wherein R is H or CH.sub.
