Concentrated softening compositions

Abstract

Abstract A concentrated, liquid, water-soluble softening composition for textiles contains: a) from 10 to 50 % by weight of at least one softening agent A chosen from the quaternary ammonium salts having at least two long C8-C22 alkyl chains, if necessary interrupted by an ester, ether, or amide group; imidazolinium salts; and the reaction products of fatty acids with polyamines chosen from the group of hydroxyalkalenediamines and dialkylenetriamines, in which the alkyl and alkylene groups contain from 1 to 3 carbon atoms, b) from 0,1 to 1 % by weight of at least one cationic compound B chosen from the cationic compounds whose solubility in aqueous or aqueous-alcoholic medium is greater than that of the softenig compound A, c) from 2 to 35 % by weight of at least one solvent C, d) if necessary, adjuvants and/or other classic additives, and e) water for the complement, the content of solvent C being greater than 10 % by weight when the content of compound A is between 10 and 20 % and the content of compound B is between 0.1 and 5 %. Application to the washing of textiles.
