Abstract
Stable pourable aqueous fabric softening compositions based on quaternary ammonium softeners and siloxanes are provided. The softening component comprises from about 1-20% by weight of the composition. Methods for making the composition are also described. Softening performance is superior to that obtained by using quaternary ammonium compound softeners, alone or with other components absent the siloxane. The softener compositions are primarily intended for use in the rinse cycle of an automatic washing machine.
