Latest Patents
Hughes' latest patents include a process for making a particulate water-dispersible free-flowing fabric. This innovative method involves the addition of up to 15 percent by weight of a polyoxyalkylene derivative to a fatty acid-derived bis(alkylamidoalkyl)amine-derived quaternary salt. This combination allows for the atomization of the latter in conventional equipment, resulting in a fabric softening product that is a desirable free-flowing solid and water-dispersible powder. Another notable patent is for a powdered imidazoline product and the method for producing it. This invention discloses a stable, free-flowing particulate imidazoline product, where R1 and R2 are independently a saturated C12-C22 alkyl group. The product is created by condensing and cyclizing a fatty acid or ester and a polyamine, with the molten, cyclized, solvent-free product being rapidly cooled to achieve a particulate form.
