This application relates to thiophene azo carboxylate dyes for use as hueing agents, laundry care compositions comprising such dyes that may serve as hueing agents, processes for making such dyes and laundry care compositions and methods of using the same. The aforementioned dyes contain a formally charged moiety and are generally comprised of at least two components: at least one chromophore component and at least one polymeric component. Suitable chromophore components generally fluoresce blue, red, violet, or purple color when exposed to ultraviolet light, or they may absorb light to reflect these same shades. Such dyes are advantageous in providing a hueing effect, for example, a whitening effect to fabrics, while not building up over time and causing undesirable blue discoloration to the treated fabrics. Such dyes are also generally stable to bleaching agents used in laundry care compositions.

Compositions comprising benefit agent and aprotic solvent

Composition comprising a benefit agent and an aprotic solvent, wherein the benefit agent comprises at least one hydrolytically unstable bond, or at least one nucleophilically unstable bond, or a mixture thereof. Methods of making such compositions.

Composition comprising benefit agent and aprotic solvent

This application relates to laundry care compositions comprising thiophene azo carboxylate fabric shading dyes and methods of treating a textile comprising such laundry care compositions.

Laundry care compositions containing dyes

This invention relates to novel whitening agents for cellulosic substrates. The whitening agents are comprised of at least two components: at least one chromophore component and at least one polymeric component. Suitable chromophore components generally fluoresce blue, red, violet, or purple color when exposed to ultraviolet light, or they may absorb light to reflect these same shades. The whitening agents are further characterized by having a dispersion component value of the Hansen Solubility Parameter of less than or equal to about 17 MPa. This invention also relates to laundry care compositions including but not limited to liquid and/or powder laundry detergent formulations and rinse added fabric softening (RAFS) compositions that comprise such whitening agents.

Whitening agents for cellulosic substrates

This invention relates to colorants comprising organic chromophores, in particular reactive dyes, which comprise electrophilic reactive groups, and which are also covalently bonded to fatty amine moieties through amino linking groups. Such colorants provide excellent colorability and long-term stability, both within (or on) colored substrates and upon long-term storage. Such colorants exhibit particularly good coloring and stability within hydrocarbon compositions, such as fuels, mineral oil, and the like, and wax compositions, including candles, crayons, and the like. Methods of making such colorants as well as methods of coloring hydrocarbon and wax compositions are also contemplated within this invention.

Colorants made from reactive dyes and fatty amines

This invention relates to antireflective coatings comprising polymeric polyoxyalkylenated colorants. More particularly, the present invention relates to antireflective coatings for utilization in forming thin layers between reflective substrates and photoresist coatings. Such antireflective coatings are very useful and beneficial within the production and fabrication of semiconductors through photolithographic procedures due to the liquid, non-crystallizing nature of polyoxyalkylenated colorants, and the lack of potentially damaging counterions, metals, and/or electrolytes within the inventive antireflective colored coatings. The inventive coatings may also be applied on lenses, mirrors, and other optical components. Methods of forming such antireflective coatings are also contemplated within this invention.

Antireflective coatings comprising poly(oxyalkylene) colorants

This invention relates to a dispersions of polymeric colorants having poly(oxyalkylene) moieties mixed with unsubstituted sorbitan monooleate alone or ethoxylated dodecanol admixed with unsubstituted sorbitan monooleate. Such colorant dispersions are easy to handle and are effectively introduced into wax media, thereby providing significant improvements over other dyestuffs, pigments, and colorants.
