The present invention relates to fabric care compositions having enhanced fabric color protection, said compositions comprising a bleach scavenging system comprising:

Fabric care compositions

The present in relates to fabric enhancement compositions which provide reduced fabric abrasion damage.

Fabric care compositions having reduced fabric abrasion

Laundry and laundry detergent compositions comprise a fabric enhancement system which comprises one or more polyamines and a transition metal-containing dye protection system which comprises an oligomer formed from the reaction of an imidazole and a crosslinking agent, preferably epichlorohydrin. Said compositions provide fabric integrity benefits but mitigate the coor fidelity problems which may be caused by the use of certain polyamines.

Fabric enhancement compositions having improved color fidelity

The present invention relates to fabric enhancement compositions which provide reduced fabric abrasion damage. The compositions of the present invention comprise: a) one or more fabric abrasion polymers, said polymers comprising the following units: i) at least one monomeric unit comprising an amide moiety; ii) at least one monomeric unit comprising an N-oxide moiety; or iii) a polymer which contains at least one monomeric unit comprising an amide moiety and at least one monomeric unit comprising an N-oxide moiety; and b) the balance carriers and fabric conditioning or fabric enhancement ingredients.

Fabric care composition having reduced fabric abrasion

A composition comprising A) from about 0.1% by weight of a polymer, copolymer, or mixtures thereof, said polymer or copolymer comprising one or more monomers having a cationic group and which is capable of attenuating and/or abating the loss of fabric dye; and B) the balance carriers and adjunct ingredients.

Fabric maintenance compositions comprising certain cationically charged fabric maintenance polymers

The present invention relates to fabric care compositions which comprise low molecular weight linear or cyclic polyamines which provide the compositions with addition fabric enhancement benefits inter alia fabric softness, fabric integrity, fabric appearance, fabric lubricity.

Rinse-added fabric care compositions comprising low molecular weight linear and cyclic polyamines

The present invention relates to fabric care and laundry detergent compositions which comprise low molecular weight modified and unmodified amines which provide enhanced fabric appearance benefits. The low molecular weight polyamines of the present invention which mitigate fabric damage and improve fabric appearance are preferably polypropyleneimines having three or four backbone amino units.

Fabric care and laundry compositions comprising low molecular weight linear or cyclic polyamines

Liquid hard-surfaces cleaning compositions are disclosed which have a pH above 9 and comprise a copolymer of N-vinylpyrrolidone and an alkylenically unsaturated monomer or a mixture thereof, preferably a quaternized or unquaternized vinylpyrrolidone/dialkylaminoalkyl acrylate or methacrylate copolymer. These compositions provide excellent first time and next time cleaning performance on hard-surfaces soiled by various soils especially grease while exhibiting excellent stability against bacterial contamination.

Alkaline liquid hard-surface cleaning compositions comprising N-vinylpyrrolidone copolymer

Liquid hard-surface cleaning compositions are disclosed which provide outstanding next-time cleaning performance to the hard-surfaces cleaned therewith. The compositions comprise from 0.001% to 20% by weight of the total composition of an antiresoiling ingredient selected from the group consisting of: a polyalkoxylene glycol according to the formula: H&mdash;O&mdash;(CH &mdash;CHR O) &mdash;H; a monocapped polyalkoxylene glycol of the formula: R &mdash;O&mdash;(CH &mdash;CHR O) &mdash;H; a dicapped polyalkoxylene glycol of the formula: R &mdash;O&mdash;(CH &mdash;CHR O) &mdash;R ; and a mixture thereof, wherein the substituents R and R each independently are substituted or unsubstituted, saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched hydrocarbon chains having from 1 to 30 carbon atoms, or amino bearing linear or branched, substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon chains having from 1 to 30 carbon atoms, R is hydrogen or a linear or branched hydrocarbon chain having from 1 to 30 carbon atoms, and wherein n is an integer greater than 0, and from 0.001% to 20% by weight of the total composition of vinylpyrrolidone homopolymer or copolymer.

Liquid hard-surface cleaning compositions

Liquid hard-surface cleaning compositions are disclosed which comprise particular dicapped polyalkoxylene glycols. These compositions provide excellent next-time cleaning performance on hard-surfaces soiled by various soils, especially greasy type soils and/or burnt/sticky food residues typically found in a kitchen.

Liquid hard-surface cleaning compositions based on specific dicapped polyalkylene glycols

A fabric softening product which is a composition or an article for application to fibrous materials so that a fabric softening component thereof is deposited on the fibrous materials and softens the same, the fabric softening component comprising at least one higher aliphatic acid ester selected from the group consisting of: I) an ester having formula (a) wherein R , R , R and R may be the same or different and are H, &mdash;(&mdash;CH ) OR or &mdash;(&mdash;CH ) CH ; R is H, &mdash;OCR , -&verbar;-(&mdash;CH &mdash;)&mdash; O-&verbar;- H or -&verbar;-(&mdash;CH &mdash;)&mdash; O-&verbar;- OCR and &mdash;OCR is a higher fatty acid acyl group having 8 to 24 carbon atoms; x is an integer from 0 to 3, y is an integer from 0 to 4, m is an integer from 1 to 3, and n is an integer from 1 to 10; with the proviso (1) that only two of R , R , R and R may be H or &mdash;(&mdash;CH ) CH and (2) that there be at least 2 higher fatty acid acyl groups; II) an oligomer of I); and III) an ester having the formula: R &mdash;O-&verbar;-(&mdash;CH &mdash;)&mdash; O-&verbar;- R wherein R and R may be the same or different and are H or &mdash;OCR , a is an integer from 1 to 3, b is an integer from 1 to 20 and &mdash;OCR has the meaning ascribed above; with the proviso that only one of R and R may be H; and a dispersing agent therefor.
