Abstract: A laundry treatment composition comprising at least one polymeric material comprising a cationic polymer moiety and a polydialkylsiloxane moiety, and at least one other component.

Abstract: A laundry cleaning composition comprises a graft polysaccharide polymer benefit agent capable of imparting a benefit such as soil release or fabric care, and at least one additional laundry cleaning ingredient.

Abstract: Cellulosic polymers, copolymers and grafts, are disclosed that adhere to fibers and surfaces during an aqueous treatment process. The cellulosic polymers having grafts and/or co-blocks are prepared using living-type free radical polymerization techniques, which provides control over the degree of substitution and graft/co-block composition and structure. These cellulosic polymers allow for the modification of fibers and surfaces to provide a desired effect.

Abstract: Laundry treatment products comprise a graft polymer benefit agent and at least one additional laundry cleaning ingredient. The graft polymer benefit agent preferably provides soil release or fabric care benefits. The graft polymer benefit agent comprises a polysaccharide backbone and a plurality of graft chains extending from the backbone, each graft chain having a degree of polymerisation between 5 and 250. The graft polymer is substantially free of cross-linking and has a degree of substitution of grafts across a bulk sample in the range of from 0.02 to 1.0. The graft polysaccharide copolymers may be prepared using living-type free radical polymerisation techniques which provide control over the degree of substitution, the graft/co-block composition and structure.

Abstract: A polymer for use in a composition or method of laundry treatment is a copolymer of: (a) one or more anionic monomer units; (b) one or more cationic monomer units; and (c) optionally, one or more uncharged monomer units; wherein, the number ratio of the total of all negative charges on the anionic monomer unit(s) to the total of all positive charges on the cationic monomer unit(s) is from 10:1 to 3:1, especially from 17:3 to 3:1.

Abstract: A polymer for use in a composition or method of laundry treatment is a copolymer of:

Abstract: A non-bleaching laundry detergent composition suitable for washing delicate fabrics, having a 1 wt % aqueous solution pH in demineralised water at 25.degree. C. not exceeding 10, contains surfactant, detergency builder, and a soil release polymer which is a defined water-soluble or water-dispersible sulphonated non-end-capped polyester, for example, of terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, sulphoisophthalic acid and ethylene glycol.

Abstract: A laundry detergent composition contains a surfactant system consisting wholly of anionic surfactant, or of anionic and nonionic surfactants in a ratio at least 0.9:1, a detergency builder, and a soil release polymer which is a defined water-soluble or water-dispersible sulphonated non-end-capped polyester, for example, of terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, sulphoisophthalic acid and ethylene glycol.

Abstract: A laundry detergent composition contains organic surfactant, zeolite MAP builder, and a soil release polymer which is a defined water-soluble or water-dispersible sulphonated non-end-capped polyester, for example, of terephthalic acid, isophthalic acid, sulphoisophthalic acid and ethylene glycol.

Abstract: A water-soluble copolyester comprising units of a polyglycol or capped polyglycol (for example, polyethylene glycol or polyethylene glycol methyl ether), an aromatic dicarboxylic acid (for example, terephthalic acid) and at least 30 mole % of a polyol having at least three hydroxyl groups (for example, glycerol), but free of ethylene glycol units, is a highly effective soil release polymer for use in detergent compositions. The aromatic dicarboxylic acid units may include units of a sulphonated aromatic dicarboxylic acid (for example, sulphoisophthalic acid).
