Abstract:
A composition comprising approximately by weight:(a) 0.1% to 10% of an organic chemical additive having a chemical group having a dipole moment of at least about 1.5 Debyes, wherein said chemical additive is selected from the group consisting of halogens, aldehydes, alcohols, enzymes, proteins, benzyl benzoate, triclosan carboxylic acids amines and amides;(b) 0.1% to 20% of a chemical linker selected from the group consisting of carboxylic acids having 4 to 6 carbon atoms, an ethoxylated polyhydric alcohol, a polyvinyl pyrrolidone polymer and a polyethylene glycol having a molecular weight of about 600 to about 10,000, wherein the molar ratio of the chemical linker to the organic chemical is about 4:1 to 1:4;(c) 0 to 30% of at least one anionic surfactant having a carboxylate, sulfate or sulfonate group wherein the chemical linker complexes both with the anionic surfactant and the organic chemical additive;(d) 0 to 15% of a second surfactant selected from the group consisting of amine oxide surfactants, zwitterionic surfactants and alkylene carbonate surfactants; and(e) 50% to 99.8% of water, wherein the composition does not contain an N-alkyl aldonamide, a nonionic water-soluble cellulose polymer, a C.sub.8 -C.sub.18 alkylamide C.sub.2 -C.sub.3 alkyl di C.sub.1 -C.sub.2 alkylamine, cyclomethicone, a linear anionic polycarboxylate which is a copolymer of vinyl methyl ether and maleic anhydride, and a mono, di or triester of an ethoxylated polyhydric alcohol having the Formula: ##STR16## wherein w equals one to four, B is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and a group represented by: ##STR17## wherein R is selected from the group consisting of alkyl group having about 6 to 22 carbon atoms, and alkenyl groups having about 6 to 22 carbon atoms, wherein at least one of the B group is represented by said ##STR18## and R' is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and methyl groups; x, y and z have a value between 0 to 60, provided that (x.degree.y.degree.z) equals about 2 to about 100, wherein in said Formula a ratio of monoester/diester/triester is 45 to 90/5 to 40/1 to 20.
