Abstract: A fatty acid ester of cellulose excellent in transparency, filterability and spinnability in spite of its high content of mannose and xylose, wherein the total molar content of mannose and xylose accounts for at least 7% of that of glucose, mannose and xylose, and the amount of filtration satisfies a specified requirement. Such a fatty acid ester of cellulose is prepared by using a pulp having a low α-cellulose content as a raw material and a fatty acid corresponding to the ester as a diluent and adding an organic solvent in an amount of at least 10% by weight based on the diluent in any step during the preparation. 
     In the preparation of cellulose diacetate, which is excellent in filterability and transparency, by the acetic acid process, the cellulose diacetate obtained by aging is dissolved in a solvent which can dissolve it and the resulting cellulose diacetate is recovered.

Inventor: DOMS JAN R P
IPC: C11D17/04

Abstract: A particulate fabric softening composition and a particulate fabric softening detergent composition are described, both of which include bentonite powder agglomerated into larger particulate bead or granule form with a normally solid co-melt of a penta-erythritol compound (PEC), such as pentaerythritol ditallowate (PEDT), and a nonionic surfactant, such as a condensation product of a mole of a C₁₂₋₁₅ fatty alcohol with seven moles of ethylene oxide. The fabric softening composition described may be added to wash (or rinse water) but preferably is incorporated in a particulate built synthetic organic anionic and/or nonionic detergent composition to produce a fabric softening detergent composition. The invented detergent compositions are especially suitable for washing laundry in "cold" water, such as water at 40°C. or thereabout, in which the nonionic surfactant increases the dispersibility of the PEC, improves fabric softening activity thereof, in conjunction with the bentonite, and also prevents excessive whitening or chalking of dark colored laundry by the particulate fabric softening composition. These improved results have been attributed to the nonionic surfactant lowering the co-melt's melting point to about 40°C. or lower, at which temperature the softening composition disperses satisfactorily in the wash water. Additional advantages of the invention are a bonus effect of the nonionic surfactant in increasing detergency of the detergent composition and wash water, and in allowing a decrease in PEC content of the softening and detergent compositions without loss of softening effect.
