Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2010064086A1] The invention provides a composition useful in maintaining color, reducing color uptake, and reducing pilling in washable textiles. Compositions of the invention comprise a polydiallyl dialkyl ammonium compound in combination with an enzyme resulting in a composition delivering strong color maintenance, dye transfer inhibition efficiency and pilling prevention especially on colored natural fiber textiles such as cotton, washable wool and silk. A laundry composition is disclosed comprising a color fixation polymer in an effective amount to maintain color in a washable textile, enzyme in an effective amount to remove pilling, and/or to aid in cleaning, and/or to prevent graying of the textile, an effective amount of an enzyme stabilizing component comprised of a polyol and propylene glycol, and an effective amount of buffer capable of maintaining the composition at a pH to maintain enzymatic activity. The laundry composition of the invention may further comprise water or an antimicrobial agent. A method of treating washable textiles using such composition is also disclosed.
