Fabric treatment compositions with antioxidants

A process of making a fabric care composition, the process comprising combining an antioxidant with a treatment adjunct material,

• wherein the antioxidant is a phenol antioxidant according to Formula I:
• A-Q[(L)b(C2H3R2Q′)q]R3 (Formula I)
• wherein A is selected from the group consisting of:
• and
• (iv) mixtures thereof;
• wherein each R1 and R2 is independently selected from —H and —CH3;
• wherein the index m is 0 or 1;
• wherein G, if present, is a divalent moiety CnH2n, where n is 1, 2, or 3;
• wherein the index p is 0 or 1, with the proviso that when m is 0, p is 0;
• wherein Q and each Q′ is independently selected from —O— and —NH—,
• wherein no more than two Q′ is —NH—;
• wherein the index b is 0 or 1;
• wherein L, if present, is at the terminus of a block of the (C2H3R2Q′) units or between two (C2H3R2Q′) units, and is a divalent organic linking moiety with molecular weight from 15 to 300 Da;
• wherein the index q is 3 to 12;
• wherein R3 is selected from H, C1-C4 alkyl, or an independently selected A group;
• and
• wherein when R3 is H, no more than five of R2 on any compound are H, and
• wherein when R3 is C1-C4 alkyl or A, q is at least 4, and at least four of R2 are H,
• with the proviso that when the A group is Formula III and both R1 of the A group are H, at least one of R2 must be —CH3.

A fabric treatment composition comprising:

• a treatment adjunct material, and
• from about 0.001% to about 5.0%, by weight of the composition, of an antioxidant according to Formula I:
• A-Q[(L)b(C2H3R2Q′)q]R3 (Formula I)
• wherein A is selected from the group consisting of:
• and
• (iv) mixtures thereof;
• wherein each R1 and R2 is independently selected from —H and —CH3;
• wherein the index m is 0 or 1;
• wherein G, if present, is a divalent moiety CnH2n, where n is 1, 2, or 3;
• wherein the index p is 0 or 1, with the proviso that when m is 0, p is 0;
• wherein Q and each Q′ is independently selected from —O— and —NH—,
• wherein no more than two Q′ is —NH—;
• wherein the index b is 0 or 1;
• wherein L, if present, is at the terminus of a block of the (C2H3R2Q′) units or between two (C2H3R2Q′) units, and is a divalent organic linking moiety with molecular weight from 15 to 300 Da;
• wherein the index q is 3 to 12;
• wherein R3 is selected from H, C1-C4 alkyl, or an independently selected A group;
• and
• wherein the antioxidant is characterized by a water solubility of from about 0.1 mg/L to about 5.0 g/L, as determined according to OECD Guideline 105.
