Textile treatment composition

Abstract

The present invention provides the textile treatment composition containing (a) the compound represented by the formula (1) and (b1) the fragrance having a logPow value not less than 3.0 and not more than 5.0 at a mass ratio of (a)/(b1)=98/2 to 20/80, and the method for facilitating adsorption of the component (b1) on a textile product by contacting the textile treatment composition with the textile product in water as a medium: (wherein, X represents —OH, —R1 (R1 represents an aliphatic hydrocarbon group having total 1 to 22 carbon atoms that may be substituted with a phenyl, hydroxy, or alkoxy group) or —OR2 (R2 represents a hydrocarbon group having 6 to 22 carbon atoms); Y represents X or —OSi (X) 3; and n is an average number from 0 to 15; a plurality of X and a plurality of Y may be independently same or different, with a proviso that the compound has at least one —OR2 in a molecule.)

1 . A textile treatment composition, comprising components (a) and (b1) at a mass ratio of (a)/(b1)=98/2 to 20/80:
 (a) a compound represented by the formula (1):   
       
         
           
           
               
               
           
         
       
       (wherein, X represents —OH, —R1 (R1 represents an aliphatic hydrocarbon group having 1 to 22 carbon atoms in total, which may be substituted with phenyl, hydroxy, or an alkoxy group) or —OR2 (R2 represents a hydrocarbon group having 6 to 22 carbon atoms); Y represents X or —OSi (X) 3; and n is an average number from 0 to 15; a plurality of X and a plurality of Y may be independently the same as or different from one another, with the proviso that the compound has at least one —OR2 in a molecule,)
 (b1) a fragrance material having a logPow value not less than 3.0 and not more than 5.0. 
 
     
     
         2 . A method for facilitating adsorption of the component (b1) on a textile product, comprising contacting the textile treatment composition according to  claim 1  with the textile product in water as a medium. 
     
     
         3 . A method of treating a textile product to impart an aroma, comprising conducting the following step A and then the following step B or simultaneously conducting the steps A and B:
 step A: treating the textile product with the textile treatment composition according to  claim 1     step B: subjecting the textile product to a heat treatment.
