Abstract:
A method of solubilizing a component of an aqueous composition which comprises admixing with the composition an effective amount of at least one ester or amide of hydroxylated carboxylic acids of formula I wherein the substituents and variables independently of one another have the following meanings:R1 is hydrogen, C1-C22-acyl or a moiety R2 is hydrogen, C1-C16-alkyl or C2-C12-alkenyl; R3 is C1-C16-alkylene or C2-C16-alkenylene; R4 is C1-C12-alkyl, C2-C12-alkenyl or C1-C12-acyl; A is â€”N(R5)â€”R6â€”; B is â€”CH2â€”CH2â€”Oâ€”, â€”CH2â€”CH2â€”CH2â€”Oâ€” or â€”CH(CH3)â€”CH2â€”Oâ€”; R5 is hydrogen, C1-C12-alkyl, C2-C12-alkenyl, C1-C12-acyl or [B]zâ€”R4; R6 is â€”CH2â€”CH2â€”, â€”CH2â€”CH2â€”CH2â€” or â€”CH(CH3)â€”CH2â€”; R7 is C1-C16-alkylene, C2-C16-alkenylene or a radical of a dimerized fatty acid; x is 1 to 6, where the radicals R2 and R3 are identical or different when x is 2 to 6; y is 0 or 1; and z is 8 to 18, where the radicals B are identical or different, as solubilizer.
