Abstract
The invention relates to a series of novel silicone compounds which contain fatty alkyl groups. This class of compounds provides unique solubility in many organic softeners, and increases the effectiveness of the softening of fatty quats. These materials are applied to fibers including textile fibers and hair and skin. The compounds of the present invention contain which contain a fatty substituted quaternary group, a silicone group and a reactive silanol groups. The presence of the positive charge on the nitrogen results in substantivity to many substrates, the presence of a silicone portion results in compatability in silicone fluids and the presence of the fatty tail on the molecule results in fatty solubility. The resulting material is surface active and will allow for the incorporation of silicone into a fatty system or of a fatty quat in a silicone system.
