Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0006678A1] Esterification reactions of alkanolamines are manipulated to favor the formation of incompletely esterified products, which can then optionally be neutralized or quaternized. The starting alkanolamines are synthesized or selected such that the alkanol groups on the alkanolamines are not all primary. These reaction mixtures have a higher concentration of either diesterified or monoesterified components than previously known reaction mixtures. The reaction mixtures can be advantageously used in fabric softener, paper softener, detergent, personal care and cleaner applications.
