Abstract:
A detergent which comprises:(i) 1-50% by weight of at least one nonionic surfactant,(ii) 0-4.0% by weight of an anionic surfactant and(iii) 0.05-2.5% by weight of at least one polycationic condensate obtained by condensing:(a) compounds selected from the group consisting of imidazole, C.sub.1 -C.sub.25 -C-alkylimidazoles and mixtures thereof, with(b) compounds selected from the group consisting of alkylene dihalides, epihalohydrins, bisepoxides, and mixtures thereof in a molar ratio of from 1:0.8 to 1:1.1 and, optionally quaternizing said condensates with a C.sub.4 -C.sub.25 -alkylating agent;or by heating triethanolamine or triisopropanolamine in the presence of an acidic catalyst and quaternizing said triethanolamine or triisopropanolamine condensate with one or more C.sub.4 -C.sub.25 -alkylating agents.
