A composition containing a silicone-containing polymer for cleaning fabric articles, especially articles of clothing, linen and drapery, with lipophilic fluid provides improved cleaning of soils while providing excellent garment care, especially for articles sensitive to water.

Silicone polymers for lipophilic fluid systems

Compositions and methods which utilize certain cellulosic based polymer or oligomeric materials as fabric treatment agents that can impart fabric appearance and integrity benefits to fabrics and textiles laundered in washing solutions which contain such materials. Specifically, the cellulosic based polymers or oligomers are of the general formula:Wherein each R is selected from the group consisting of R, R, andeach Ris independently selected from the group consisting of H and C-Calkyl; each Riseach Z is independently selected from the group consisting of M, R, R, and R; and each Ris independently selected from the group consisting of C-Calkyl, C-Ccycloalkyl, C-Calkylaryl, C-Carylalkyl, substituted alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, C-Calkoxy-2-hydroxyalkyl, C-Calkylaryloxy-2-hydroxyalkyl, (R)N-alkyl, (R)N-2-hydroxyalkyl, (R)N-alkyl, (R)N-2-hydroxyalkyl, C-Caryloxy-2-hydroxyalkyl,The Degree of Substitution for group Rin these cellulosic based polymers or oligomers is between about 0.001 and 0.1, and the Degree of Substitution for group Rwherein Z is H or M in these cellulosic based polymers or oligomers is between about 0.2 and 2.0.

Laundry detergent compositions with cellulosic based polymers to provide appearance and integrity benefits to fabrics laundered therewith

Coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture comprising a nanoparticle system employing same to impart surface modifying benefits for all types of soft surfaces, and in some cases, hard surfaces, are disclosed. In some embodiments, dispersement of nanoparticles in a suitable carrier medium allows for the creation of coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture that create multi-use benefits to the modified surfaces. These surface modifications can produce long lasting or semi-permanent multi-use benefits that, in some embodiments, may include at least one of the following improved surface properties: cleaning, wettability, liquid strike-through, comfort, stain resistance, soil removal, malodor control, modification of surface friction, reduced damage to abrasion and color enhancement, relative to the surfaces unmodified with such nanoparticle systems.

Coating compositions for modifying surfaces

Rinse aid materials for coating, coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture for use in automatic dishwashing appliances comprising a nanoparticle system or employing the same to impart surface modifying benefits for all types of dishware surfaces are disclosed. In some embodiments, dispersement of nanoparticles in a suitable carrier medium allows for the creation of rinse aid surface coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture that create multi-use benefits to modified dishware surfaces. These surface modifications can produce long lasting or semi-permanent multi-use benefits that include at least one of the following improved surface properties: wetting and sheeting, uniform drying, anti-spotting, anti-staining, anti-filming, self cleaning, and durability benefits, relative to dishware surfaces unmodified with such nanoparticle systems. In some embodiments, actively curing the rinse aid surface coating composition on the dishware surfaces, including, but not limited to by radiative heating the air surrounding the dishware surface with the coating thereon can be used to increase the durability of the dishware surface coating.

Rinse aid surface coating compositions for modifying dishware surfaces

Materials for coating, coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture comprising a nanoparticle system or employing the same to impart surface modifying benefits for all types of hard surfaces are disclosed. In some embodiments, dispersement of nanoparticles in a suitable carrier medium allows for the creation of coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture that create multi-use benefits to modified hard surfaces. In some embodiments, actively curing the coating composition on the hard surfaces, including, but not limited to by radiative heating the air surrounding the hard surface with the coating thereon can be used to increase the durability of the hard surface coating.

Coatings for modifying hard surfaces and processes for applying the same

The present invention relates to fabric care methods for restoring and/or rejuvenating color of worn, faded fabric, by applying to said fabric a fabric color care composition which comprises: water soluble and/or water dispersible polymers; surfactant capable of forming a bilayer structure; and mixtures thereof. Optionally, the composition can contain other ingredients to provide additionally fabric care benefits, and/or to improve performance and formulatability. The composition is preferably applied as small particle size droplets, especially from spray container that preferably are in association with a set of instructions for use.

Fabric color care method

Polyaspartate derivatives, especially hydrophobically modified and/or hydrophilically modified polyaspartate derivatives, most especially polyaspartate derivatives that are both hydrophilically and hydrophobically modified, for use in detergent compositions, specifically laundry detergent compositions for providing cleaning, dispersancy, especially soil dispersion, builder properties and/or improved whitening of fabrics contacted by such detergent compositions; and methods for making such polyaspartate derivatives, and methods and articles employing such detergent compositions, are provided.

Polyaspartate derivatives for use in detergent compositions

The present invention relates to laundry detergent compositions which provide enhanced hydrophilic soil cleaning benefits comprising a zwitterionic polyamine, a surfactant system comprising a mid-chain branched surfactant, and carrier and other adjunct ingredients.

Laundry detergent compositions comprising zwitterionic polyamines and mid-chain branched surfactants

The present invention relates to detergent compositions comprising a polyamine with defined end capping units and a mid-chain branched surfactant and also optionally containing a bleach agent, aluminosilicate, silicate, and/or detersive enzyme.

Laundry detergent compositions comprising polyamines and mid-chain branched surfactants

The present invention relates to hydrophobically modified polyamines and laundry detergent compositions comprising such polyamines and a surfactant system. In addition to traditional cleaning benefits, such compositions provide enhanced greasy soil removal capabilities.

Laundry detergent compositions comprising hydrophobically modified polyamines

A composition containing a polyoxyalkylene polymer for cleaning fabric articles, especially articles of clothing, linen and drapery, with lipophilic fluid provides improved cleaning of soils while providing excellent garment care, especially for articles sensitive to water.

Non-silicone polymers for lipophilic fluid systems

The present invention relates to fabric care methods for restoring and/or rejuvenating color of worn, faded fabric, by applying to said fabric a fabric color care composition which comprises: water soluble and/or water dispersible polymers; surfactant capable of forming a bilayer structure; and mixtures thereof. Optionally, the composition can contain other ingredients to provide additionally fabric care benefits, and/or to improve performance and formulability. The composition is preferably applied as small particle size droplets, especially from spray container that preferably are in association with a set of instructions for use.

A detergent composition comprising from about 4% to about 70% of a surfactant, and from about 0.05% to about 10% of a dye maintenance polymer or oligomer having at least three net positive chages per molecule. The dye maintenance polymer should have a Dye Maintenance Parameter, as determined by the Dye Maintenance Parameter Test defined herein, of greater than about 0.23. Further, the dye maintenance polymer is not a polyethyleneimine or alkoxylated derivative thereof.
