Abstract:
1. A laundry detergent composition comprising no more than 5%, by weight, anionic surfactant, from 15% to 50%, by weight, of nonionic surfactant and from 0.1% to 20%, by weight, of a semi-polar nonionic surfactant selected from the group consisting of the amine oxides, phosphine oxides and sulfoxides, an organic pearlescent agent selected from the group consisting of ethylene glycol distearate, ethylene glycol monostearate, and mixtures thereof, and a cyclic amine based polymer, oligomer or copolymer of the general formula: wherein; each T is independently selected from the group consisting of H, C —(CH wherein W comprises at least one cyclic constituent selected from the group consisting of: wherein in addition to the at least one cyclic constituent, W may also comprise an aliphatic or substituted aliphatic moiety of the general structure; each B is independently C each D is independently C each Q is independently selected from the group consisting of hydroxy, C each R each R provided that when R 2 is a C 3 -C 12 hydrocarbyl moiety the hydrocarbyl moiety can comprise from about 2 to about 4 branching moieties of the general structure: each R each R each R A is a compatible monovalent or di or polyvalent anion; M is a compatible cation; b=number necessary to balance the charge; each x is independently from 3 to about 1000; each c is independently 0 or 1; each h is independently from about 1 to about 8; each q is independently from about 0 to about 6; each n is independently from about 1 to about 20; each r is independently from about 0 to about 20; and each t is independently from about 0 to about 1.
