Claims27
An aqueous composition for imparting softness to textile materials, said composition comprising an ethoxylated amido amine quaternary salt corresponding to the following structural formula:
- ##STR23## wherein R is selected from the group of hydrocarbon radicals containing from about 6 to about 22 carbon atoms, said radicals being either cyclic or straight- or branched-chain aliphatics, or aromatics, a and b are integers whose sum is between 2 and 20, inclusive, m is an integer between 2 and 4, inclusive, n is an integer between 2 and 6, inclusive, and X is a dihydroborate or organoborate anion.
An aqueous composition for imparting softness to textile materials comprising an ethoxylated amide amine quaternary salt corresponding to the formula:
- ##STR24## wherein Z.sub.1 is selected from the group H.sub.2 BO.sub.3 -- and ##STR25##
An aqueous composition for imparting softness to textile materials and comprising an ethoxylated imidazolinium quaternary salt corresponding to the formula:
- ##STR27## wherein R is selected from the group of saturated and unsaturated acyclic hydrocarbon radicals containing from about 6 to 22 carbon atoms inclusive, m is an integer between 2 to 4, inclusive, c is an integer between 1 and 10, inclusive, and X is a boron-containing anion.
