Abstract
A liquid fabric treatment composition comprising aliphatic hydrocarbon, fatty acid, fatty acid salt, fatty acid ester, and a fatty acid condensate of a natural fat and hydroxyalkyl polyamine in aqueous medium. The composition provides washed fabrics treated therewith with softness and smoothness which, particularly, makes large articles of washing easier to iron by hand ironing or by rotary ironing.
Claims14
A liquid composition for treating washed fabrics in aqueous liquor and impart softness and smoothness to said fabrics, said composition consisting essentially of;
- (a) from about 0.1 to about 10% by weight of an aliphatic hydrocarbon,
- (b) from about 0.1 to about 5% by weight of a fatty acid and/or a fatty acid salt,
- (c) from about 0.5 to about 10% by weight of a fatty acid ester,
- (d) from about 2 to about 20% by weight of a nonionic dispersant,
- (e) from about 2 to about 15% by weight of a fatty acid condensate of a natural fat and a hydroxyalkyl polyamine, and
- (f) from about 50 to about 80% by weight of water, based on the weight of said composition.
A process of treating washed fabrics in aqueous liquor and imparting softness and smoothness to said fabrics, comprising rinsing said fabrics with a composition consisting essentially of;
- (a) from about 0.1 to about 10% by weight of an aliphatic hydrocarbon,
- (b) from about 0.1 to about 5% by weight of a fatty acid and/or a fatty acid salt,
- (c) from about 0.5 to about 10% by weight of a fatty acid ester,
- (d) from about 2 to about 20% by weight of a nonionic dispersant,
- (e) from about 2 to about 15% by weight of a fatty acid condensate of a natural fat and a hydroxyalkyl polyamine, and
- (f) from about 50 to about 80% by weight of water, based on the weight of said composition.
