Definitions

  • This invention relates to a fabric softening composition.
  • a fabric softening composition which comprises an amphoteric material as active ingredient and which is intended for addition to the rinse or drying step of a fabric laundering process.
  • British Patent Specification No. 1 260 584 discloses a method of softening fabrics by the use of a composition containing a quaternary ammonium compound and a tertiary amine oxide.
  • the use of the amine oxide in addition to the quaternary ammonium compound leads to a number of advantages including improved performance on cotton in the presence of anionic surfactants, which can be carried over from the wash step in a fabric laundering process.
  • Despite these advantages on cotton fabric softening compositions known in the art generally suffer from the disadvantage that they do not perform particularly well in the softening of fabrics which contain a substantial amount of wool.
  • EP-A-0 269 939 describes the use of amphoteric detergent compounds to wash wool.
  • Nonionic cellulose ethers are mentioned as one class of polymer which can also be included in the detergent composition.
  • British Patent Specification GB 2 083 353 discloses certain detergent compositions for through the wash softening which optionally comprise ionic cellulose ethers.
  • EP-A-0 276 999 discloses the use of nonionic cellulose ethers to improve the deposition of various softeners. The compositions of this reference are shown to improve the softening of terry towelling.
  • Fabric conditioning compositions according to the present invention preferably have a pH of between 1.5 and 6.0 at a concentration of 1g/1 of amphoteric softening material in water at 25°C.
