Abstract
Anionic microemulsions of hydrophobic, normally liquid, oxygenated, long chain hydrocarbons have been found to provide nitrogen-free rinse cycle fabric softener compositions. Fatty acid esters of polyols, such as triglycerol diisostearate and sorbitan isostearate, are preferred softeners especially when microemulsified with an anionic surfactant, a cosurfactant and optionally a nonionic surfactant.
