Abstract: A fabric softening composition including from about 1% to about 90% by weight of a fabric softening active, optionally from about 1% to about 25% by weight of a principal solvent having a ClogP of less than about 3, from about 0.05% to about 15% by weight of a malodor controlling agent, and the balance being adjunct ingredients. The malodor controlling agent is selected from the group consisting of a quaternary ammonium antimicrobial agent, cyclodextrin or mixtures of these ingredients. The present invention also relates to a method for reducing malodor by applying such a composition to a fabric article, and drying the fabric article as well as the use of such a composition on fabric articles to reduce malodor impression. An article for reducing and inhibiting the expression of malodor impression is also provided.

Abstract: There is provided a rinse added composition for the conditioning of fabric in a rinse, whereby the composition comprises a fabric softener active, a suds suppressing system and a surfactant scavenger, characterized in that the composition has a suds reduction value of at least about 90% and is free from visible flocs when used in the presence of residual detergent surfactant.

Abstract: The present invention relates to liquid, rinse added fabric softening compositions including a dispersible polyethylene and methods for their use. The fabric softeners of the present invention include a fabric softening compound or amine precursor thereof and a dispersible polyolefin. Preferably, the dispersible polyolefin is an emulsion and the polyolefin is polyethylene and, more preferably, a modified or oxidized polyethylene. A liquid carrier and optional dispersibility modifier are also included. The quaternary ammonium fabric softener is preferably cationic and biodegradable.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a machine dishwashing composition comprisingfrom 1% to 80% by weight of detergent builder compoundoxygen-releasing bleaching agentfrom 0.05% to 2.5% by weight, preferably 0.1% to 1% by weight of paraffin oil,nitrogen-containing corrosion inhibitor compoundMost preferably the oxygen-releasing bleaching agent is incorporated such that the level of available oxygen measured according to the method herein is from 0.3 to 1.7, preferably 0.5 to 1.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a detergent composition containing from 1% to 80% by weight of a detergent builder compound; from 0.005% to 2,5% by weight of a paraffin oil; an oxygen-releasing bleaching agent such that the level of available oxygen in the composition measured according to the method herein is from 0.3% to 2.5% wherein the rate of release of said available oxygen is such that the available oxygen is completely released from the composition in a time interval of from 3.5 minutes to 10.0 minutes, using the test protocol described in the present description.

Abstract: There is provided a bleaching composition, suitable for use in a machine dishwashing method, containing: an oxygen-releasing bleaching agent, from 0.05% to 2.5% by weight, preferably 0.1% to 0.6% by weight of a paraffin oil, from 0.005% to 3%, preferably 0.02% to 1% and most preferably from 0.05% to 0.5% of a benzotriazole compound. Preferably the bleaching composition forms a part of a detergent composition.
