Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1018541A1] Fabric softener rinsing compositions based on a quaternary ammonium compound of formula (I) and a polyalkylene oxide adduct of formula (II) give clear water-white aqueous solutions. Clear softening rinse formulation comprising: (A) 15-35 wt. % of at least one quaternary ammonium compound of formula (I) (B) 5-30 wt. % of at least one compound of formula (II): R<6>-(CH2)a-O(CH2CH(R<4>)-O-)nH (II) R = -CH3, -CH2-CH(R<4>)-OR<1> or -CH2-CH(R<5>)-OR<2> in which R<4> and R<5> (same or different) = H or CH3 R<1> and R<2> = H, -C(O)-R<3> in which R<3> = an optionally substituted 13-19 C hydrocarbon group containing at least one double bond, provided that if R is not CH3 then R<1> and R<2> = H at least 1 to 1.4 times and if R = CH3 then R<1> and R<2> = H at most 0.4 times R<6> = a phenyl group which optionally contains a 1-4 C alkyl group, or a branched 3-6 C alkyl group a = 0 or 1 n = 0-8 A<-> = the anion of a quaternizing agent such as di(m)ethylsulfate or methyl chloride (C) 0.5-18 wt. % conventional assistants and adjuvants and (D) to 100 wt. % with water.
