Abstract
A laundry conditioning agent containing up to 50% by weight of at least one fabric-softening component, at least one easier-iron component, and at least one polyether-modified siloxane as spreading agent. The fabric-softening component contains one or more quaternary ammonium compounds of the formula (II) or of the formula (V) and the easier-iron component and spreading agent are present in a weight ratio of 10:6 to 40:1.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed:
1 . A laundry conditioning agent, comprising up to 50% by weight of at least one fabric-softening component, at least one easier-iron component, and at least one polyether-modified siloxane as spreading agent.
2 . The laundry conditioning agent of claim 1 , wherein the fabric-softening component comprises one or more quaternary ammonium compounds of the formula (II)
where R 4 is an aliphatic alkyl radical having 12 to 22 carbon atoms with 0, 1, 2 or 3 double bonds; R 5 is H, OH or O(CO)R 7 , R 6 , independently of R 5 , is H, OH or O(CO)R 8 , where R 7 and R 8 , independently of one another, are in each case an aliphatic alkyl radical having 12 to 22 carbon atoms with 0, 1, 2 or 3 double bonds, m, n and p can, in each case independently of one another, have the value 1, 2 or 3, and X − can either be a halide, methosulfate, methophosphate or phosphate ion, and mixtures thereof, or
of the formula (V)
where R 12 , R 13 and R 14 , independently of one another, are a C 1-4 -alkyl, alkenyl or hydroxyalkyl group, R 15 and R 16 , in each case chosen independently, is a C 8-28 -alkyl group and r is a number between 0 and 5, and wherein the easier-iron component and spreading agent are present in a weight ratio of 10:6 to 40:1.
3 . The agent of claim 2 , wherein the fabric-softening component comprises one or more of N-methyl-N(2hydroxyethyl)-N,N-(ditallow-acyloxyethyl)ammonium methosulfate or N-methyl-N(2-hydroxyethyl)-N,N-(dipalmitoylethyl)ammonium methosulfate.
4 . The agent of claim 1 , comprising 0.1 to 45% by weight of the fabric-softening component.
5 . The agent of claim 4 , comprising 5 to 40% by weight of the fabric-softening component.
6 . The agent of claim 5 , comprising 11 to 35% by weight of the fabric-softening component.
7 . The agent of claim 1 , additionally comprising one or more nonionic surfactants.
8 . The agent of claim 7 , wherein the one or more nonionic surfactants comprise C 8 -C 18 -alcohols having 1 to 12 EO.
9 . The agent of claim 2 , wherein it is liquid and comprises up to 95% by weight of one or more aqueous solvents.
10 . The agent of claim 9 , comprising 20 to 90% by weight of one or more aqueous solvents.
11 . The agent of claim 10 , comprising 50 to 80% by weight of one or more aqueous solvents.
12 . The agent of claim 9 , wherein the easier-iron component comprises one or more silicone oils.
13 . Thje agent of claim 12 , wherein the one or more silicone oils comprise one or more dimethylpolysiloxanes.
14 . The agent of claim of claim 9 , comprising up to 10% by weight of the easier-iron component.
15 . The agent of claim 14 , comprising 0.1 to 8% by weight of the easier-iron component.
16 . The agent of claim 15 , comprising 0.5 to 5% by weight of the easier-iron component.
17 . The agent of claim 1 , wherein the spreading agent comprises one or more polyether-modified siloxanes.
18 . The agent of claim 14 , comprising up to 10% by weight of the spreading agent.
19 . The agent of claim 18 , comprising 0.01 to 5% by weight of the spreading agent.
20 . The agent of claim 19 , comprising 0.05 to 2% by weight of the spreading agent.
21 . The agent of claim 20 , comprising 0.1 to 1% by weight of the spreading agent.
22 . The agent of claim 18 , wherein the easier-iron component and spreading agent are present in a weight ratio of 10:6 to 40:1.
23 . The agent of claim 22 , wherein the easier-iron component and spreading agent are present in a weight ratio of 10:4 to 30:1.
24 . The agent of claim 23 , wherein the easier-iron component and spreading agent are present in a weight ratio of 10:3 to 20:1.
25 . The agent of claim 24 , wherein the easier-iron component and spreading agent are present in a weight ratio of 10:2.5 to 15:1.
26 . A method of conditioning textile fabrics in a textile-drying process or in a washing process, comprising contacting a textile fabric with an effective amount of the laundry conditioning agent of claim 1 .
27 . A conditioning substrate, comprising a fabric substrate impregnated and/or saturated with the liquid laundry conditioning agent of claim 1 .
28 . The conditioning substrate of claim 27 , wherein the agent comprises up to 95% by weight of one or more aqueous solvents.
29 . The conditioning substrate of claim 27 , wherein the fabric substrate comprises a nonwoven material.
30 . The conditionaing substrate of claim 29 , wherein the nonwoven material is a viscose nonwoven.
31 . The conditioning substrate of claim 27 , having a weight of from 20 to 500 g/m 2 .
32 . The conditioning substrate of claim 32 , having a weight of from 25 to 200 g/m 2 .
