Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9716516A1] The subject invention involves liquid fabric softener compositions for use in the rinse cycle of a laundering process, and concentrates of such compositions, the compositions and concentrates comprising: (a) from about 0.4 % to about 24 % cationic fabric softener; (b) from about 0.3 % to about 10 % hydrophobic perfume; (c) from about 0.4 % to about 20 % nonionic surfactant; (d) from 0 % to about 3 % water-soluble ionizable inorganic salt; (e) from about 60 % to about 98.5 % water; and (f) from 0 % to about 10 % other ingredients; the composition having a ratio of cationic softener to perfume of from about 1:3 to about 5:1, and a ratio of cationic softener to nonionic surfactant of from about 1:2 to about 4:1, the amount of cationic softener plus nonionic surfactant being from about 1 % to about 30 %; and the composition being a liquid aqueous phase with discrete hydrophobic particles dispersed substantially uniformly therein. The subject invention also involves processes for making such compositions and concentrates.
