Abstract:
The present invention relates to amphiphilic water-soluble alkoxylated polyalkyleneimines having an inner polyethylene oxide block comprising 20 to 50 polyethylene oxide units and an outer polypropylene oxide block comprising 10 to 50 polyethylene oxide units and especially to such alkoxylated polyalkyleneimines wherein the ratio of polyethylene oxide units and polypropylene oxide units is proportionally related to the square root of the number of polyalkyleneimine units present in the backbone. The present invention further relates to the use of these alkoxylated polyalkyleneimines as a soil detachment promoting additive to laundry detergents and cleaning compositions and to laundry detergents and cleaning compositions which comprise these alkoxylated mono- or polyalkyleneimines.
Abstract:
Laundry detergent and cleaning compositions comprising alkoxylated polyalkanolamine polymers obtainable by condensation of N-(hydroxyalkyl)amines and reacting the remaining hydroxy and/or secondary amino groups of the condensation product with alkylene oxides and/or derivatives obtainable by quaternization, protonation, sulphation and/or phosphation of said polymers.
Abstract:
A laundry detergent composition comprising a graft copolymer of polyethylene, polypropylene or polybutylene oxide with vinyl acetate in a weight ratio of from about 1:0.2 to about 1:10; from about 0.2% to about 8% of organic solvent; and from about 2% to about 20% of a surfactant system; wherein said detergent composition is in a form selected from: liquid; gel; and combinations thereof.
Abstract:
Fabric care compositions for providing improved stain repellency are described. The fabric care composition includes a mixture including a hydrophobic fluid, a particulate material and an amphoteric or cationic oligomeric/polymeric deposition aid. Methods for providing improved stain repellency for a textile by treating the textile with the fabric care composition are also described.

Abstract:
An alkaline laundry detergent for hand washing a fabric contains a sudsing surfactant, a polyethyleneimine suds collapser having the empirical formula (PEI)a(EO)b(PO)c where a is about 100-100,000, b is about 0-60, and c is about from 0-60, and a pH control system. When diluted to form a laundry liquor and during washing the pH control system maintains the pH of the laundry liquor above about 8.

Abstract:
Laundry detergents and cleaning compositions which provide improved cleaning benefits that comprise a novel polymer system. The polymer system comprises one or more amphiphilic alkoxylated grease cleaning polymers, and either a clay soil cleaning polymer; or a soil suspending polymer.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to polymers obtainable by condensation of N-(hydroxy-alkyl)amines and reacting the remaining hydroxy and/or secondary amino groups of the condensation product with alkylene oxides and to derivatives obtainable by quaternization, protonation, sulphation and/or phosphation of said polymers, as well as to a process for preparing said polymers and a process for preparing said derivatives.
Abstract:
Laundry detergent and cleaning compositions comprising amphiphilic graft polymers based on water-soluble polyalkylene oxides (A) as a graft base and side chains formed by polymerization of a vinyl ester component (B), said polymers having an average of =1 graft site per 50 alkylene oxide units and mean molar masses Mw of from 3000 to 100,000.
