Abstract

Abstract This invention relates to a combination of surface-active compounds utilizable in neutral to alkaline textile washing baths which comprises (a) from 20 to 90 percent by weight of customary surface-active compounds utilizable in neutral to alkaline textile washing baths selected from the group consisting of anionic surface-active compounds, amphoteric surface-active compounds, non-ionic surface-active compounds and mixtures thereof and (b) from 80 to 10 percent by weight of a textile softener selected from the group consisting of (1) compounds of the formula WHEREIN R1 and R2 are alkyl having from six to 18 carbon atoms and X is a trivalent link selected from the group consisting of WHERE N REPRESENTS AN INTEGER FROM 0 TO 2, M REPRESENTS AN INTEGER FROM 1 TO 2 AND P REPRESENTS AN INTEGER FROM 2 TO 3 COMPOUNDS OF THE FORMULA WHEREIN R3 and R4 are members selected from the group consisting of alkyl having from one to 23 carbon atoms and cycloalkylalkyl having from seven to 23 carbon atoms and R5 is a member selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl having from one to 23 carbon atoms and cycloalkylalkyl having from seven to 23 carbon atoms, with the proviso that the total number of carbon atoms in R1, R2 and R3 is from six to 24 carbon atoms and (2) water soluble salts thereof. Textile washing agents and textile auxiliary washing agents containing the above combinations of surface-active compounds, with or without a content of enzymes are also part of the invention.
