     Fatty Acid 
     The composition may comprise a fatty acid, such as a free fatty acid as fabric softening active. The term “fatty acid” is used herein in the broadest sense to include unprotonated or protonated forms of a fatty acid. One skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the pH of an aqueous composition will dictate, in part, whether a fatty acid is protonated or unprotonated. The fatty acid may be in its unprotonated, or salt form, together with a counter ion, such as, but not limited to, calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, and the like. The term “free fatty acid” means a fatty acid that is not bound to another chemical moiety (covalently or otherwise). 
     The fatty acid may include those containing from 12 to 25, from 13 to 22, or even from 16 to 20, total carbon atoms, with the fatty moiety containing from 10 to 22, from 12 to 18, or even from 14 (mid-cut) to 18 carbon atoms. 
     The fatty acids may be derived from (1) an animal fat, and/or a partially hydrogenated animal fat, such as beef tallow, lard, etc.; (2) a vegetable oil, and/or a partially hydrogenated vegetable oil such as canola oil, safflower oil, peanut oil, sunflower oil, sesame seed oil, rapeseed oil, cottonseed oil, corn oil, soybean oil, tall oil, rice bran oil, palm oil, palm kernel oil, coconut oil, other tropical palm oils, linseed oil, tung oil, castor oil, etc.; (3) processed and/or bodied oils, such as linseed oil or tung oil via thermal, pressure, alkali-isomerization and catalytic treatments; (4) combinations thereof, to yield saturated (e.g. stearic acid), unsaturated (e.g. oleic acid), polyunsaturated (linoleic acid), branched (e.g. isostearic acid) or cyclic (e.g. saturated or unsaturated disubstituted cyclopentyl or cyclohexyl derivatives of polyunsaturated acids) fatty acids. 
     Mixtures of fatty acids from different fat sources can be used. 
     The cis/trans ratio for the unsaturated fatty acids may be important, with the cis/trans ratio (of the C18:1 material) being from at least 1:1, at least 3:1, from 4:1 or even from 9:1 or higher. 
     Branched fatty acids such as isostearic acid are also suitable since they may be more stable with respect to oxidation and the resulting degradation of color and odor quality. The fatty acid may have an iodine value from 0 to 140, from 50 to 120 or even from 85 to 105. Polysaccharides: 
     The composition may comprise a polysaccharide as a fabric softening active, such as cationic starch. Suitable cationic starches for use in the present compositions are commercially-available from Cerestar under the trade name C*BOND® and from National Starch and Chemical Company under the trade name CATO® 2A. 
     Sucrose Esters 
     The composition may comprise a sucrose esters as a fabric softening active. Sucrose esters are typically derived from sucrose and fatty acids. Sucrose ester is composed of a sucrose moiety having one or more of its hydroxyl groups esterified. 
     Sucrose is a disaccharide having the following formula: 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Alternatively, the sucrose molecule can be represented by the formula: M(OH) 8 , wherein M is the disaccharide backbone and there are total of 8 hydroxyl groups in the molecule. 
     Thus, sucrose esters can be represented by the following formula:
 
M(OH) 8−x (OC(O)R 1 ) x  
 
     wherein x is the number of hydroxyl groups that are esterified, whereas (8-x) is the hydroxyl groups that remain unchanged; x is an integer selected from 1 to 8, alternatively from 2 to 8, alternatively from 3 to 8, or from 4 to 8; and R 1  moieties are independently selected from C 1 -C 22  alkyl or C 1- C 30  alkoxy, linear or branched, cyclic or acyclic, saturated or unsaturated, substituted or unsubstituted. 
     The R 1  moieties may comprise linear alkyl or alkoxy moieties having independently selected and varying chain length. For example, R 1  may comprise a mixture of linear alkyl or alkoxy moieties wherein greater than 20% of the linear chains are C 18 , alternatively greater than 50% of the linear chains are C 18 , alternatively greater than 80% of the linear chains are C 18 . 
     The R 1  moieties may comprise a mixture of saturate and unsaturated alkyl or alkoxy moieties. The iodine value (IV) of the sucrose esters suitable for use herein ranges from 1 to 150, or from 2 to 100, or from 5 to 85.

     Said polyurea based wall material may comprise a polyisocyanate. The polyisocyanate may be an aromatic polyisocyanate containing a phenyl, a toluoyl, a xylyl, a naphthyl or a diphenyl moiety (e.g., a polyisocyanurate of toluene diisocyanate, a trimethylol propane-adduct of toluene diisocyanate or a trimethylol propane-adduct of xylylene diisocyanate), an aliphatic polyisocyanate (e.g., a trimer of hexamethylene diisocyanate, a trimer of isophorone diisocyanate and a biuret of hexamethylene diisocyanate), or a mixture thereof (e.g., a mixture of a biuret of hexamethylerie diisocyanate and a trimethylol propane-adduct of xylylene diisocyanate). The polyisocyante may be cross-linked, the cross-linking agent being a polyamine (e.g., diethylenetriamine, bis(3-aminopropyl)amine, bis(hexanethylene)triamine, tris(2-aminoethyl)amine, triethylenetetramine, N,N′-bis(3-aminopropyl)-1,3-propanediamine, tetraethylenepentamine, pentaethylenehexamine, branched polyethylenimine, chitosan, nisin, gelatin, 1,3-diaminoguanidine monohydrochloride, 1,1-dimethylbiguanide hydrochloride, or guanidine carbonate). 
     Said polyvinyl alcohol based wall material may comprise a crosslinked, hydrophobically modified polyvinyl alcohol, which comprises a crosslinking agent comprising i) a first dextran aldehyde having a molecular weight of from 2,000 to 50,000 Da; and ii) a second dextran aldehyde having a molecular weight of from greater than 50,000 to 2,000,000 Da. 
     The perfume capsule may be coated with a deposition aid, a cationic polymer, a non-ionic polymer, an anionic polymer, or mixtures thereof. Suitable polymers may be selected from the group consisting of: polyvinylformaldehyde, partially hydroxylated polyvinylformaldehyde, polyvinylamine, polyethyleneimine, ethoxylated polyethyleneimine, polyvinylalcohol, polyacrylates, and combinations thereof. One or more types of microcapsules, for examples two microcapsules types, wherein one of the first or second microcapsules (a) has a wall made of a different wall material than the other; (b) has a wall that includes a different amount of wall material or monomer than the other; or (c) contains a different amount perfume oil ingredient than the other; or (d) contains a different perfume oil, may be used. 
     Said perfume delivery technology may comprise an amine compound (ARP) or a thio compound. One may also use “reactive” polymeric amines and or polymeric thios in which the amine and/or thio functionality is pre-reacted with one or more perfume raw materials (PRMs) to form a compound. Typically, the reactive amines are primary and/or secondary amines, and may be part of a polymer or a monomer (non-polymer). Such ARPs may also be mixed with additional PRMs to provide benefits of polymer-assisted delivery and/or amine-assisted delivery. Nonlimiting examples of polymeric amines include polymers based on polyalkylimines, such as polyethyleneimine (PEI), or polyvinylamine (PVAm). Nonlimiting examples of monomeric (non-polymeric) amines include hydroxyl amines, such as 2-aminoethanol and its alkyl substituted derivatives, and aromatic amines such as anthranilates. The ARPs may be premixed with perfume or added separately in leave-on or rinse-off applications. A material that contains a heteroatom other than nitrogen and/or sulfur, for example oxygen, phosphorus or selenium, may be used as an alternative to amine compounds. A single molecule may comprise an amine moiety and one or more of the alternative heteroatom moieties, for example, thiols, phosphines and selenols. The benefit may include improved delivery of perfume as well as controlled perfume release. 
     Dye Transfer Inhibiting Agents 
     Fabric cleaning compositions may also include one or more materials effective for inhibiting the transfer of dyes from one fabric to another during the cleaning process. Generally, such dye transfer inhibiting agents may include polyvinyl pyrrolidone polymers, polyamine N-oxide polymers, copolymers of N-vinylpyrrolidone and N-vinylimidazole, manganese phthalocyanine, peroxidases, and mixtures thereof. If used, these agents may be used at a concentration of about 0.0001% to about 10%, by weight of the composition, in some examples, from about 0.01% to about 5%, by weight of the composition, preferably from about 0.05% to about 2% by weight of the composition. 
     Chelating Agents 
     The detergent compositions described herein may also contain one or more metal ion chelating agents.

     A biodegradable chelator that may also be used herein is ethylenediamine disuccinate (“EDDS”). The trisodium salt of EDDA may be used, though other forms, such as magnesium salts, may also be useful. Polymeric chelants such as Trilon P® from BASF may also be useful. 
     Polyfunctionally-substituted aromatic chelating agents may also be used in the cleaning compositions. Compounds of this type in acid form are dihydroxydisulfobenzenes, such as 1,2-dihydroxy-3,5-disulfobenzene, also known as Tiron. Other sulphonated catechols may also be used. In addition to the disulfonic acid, the term “tiron” may also include mono- or di-sulfonate salts of the acid, such as, for example, the disodium sulfonate salt, which shares the same core molecular structure with the disulfonic acid. 
     Other suitable chelating agents for use herein are the commercial DEQUEST series, and chelants from Monsanto, Akzo-Nobel, DuPont, Dow, the Trilon® series from BASF and Nalco. 
     The chelant may be present in the detergent compositions disclosed herein at from about 0.005% to about 15% by weight, about 0.01% to about 5% by weight, about 0.1% to about 3.0% by weight, or from about 0.2% to about 0.7% by weight, or from about 0.3% to about 0.6% by weight of the detergent compositions disclosed herein.

     Fillers and Carriers 
     Fillers and carriers may be used in the cleaning compositions described herein. As used herein, the terms “filler” and “carrier” have the same meaning and can be used interchangeably. 
     Liquid cleaning compositions and other forms of cleaning compositions that include a liquid component (such as liquid-containing unit dose cleaning compositions) may contain water and other solvents as fillers or carriers. Suitable solvents also include lipophilic fluids, including siloxanes, other silicones, hydrocarbons, glycol ethers, glycerine derivatives such as glycerine ethers, perfluorinated amines, perfluorinated and hydrofluoroether solvents, low-volatility nonfluorinated organic solvents, diol solvents, and mixtures thereof. 
     Low molecular weight primary or secondary alcohols exemplified by methanol, ethanol, propanol, and isopropanol are suitable. Monohydric alcohols may be used in some examples for solubilizing surfactants, and polyols such as those containing from 2 to about 6 carbon atoms and from 2 to about 6 hydroxy groups (e.g., 1,3-propanediol, ethylene glycol, glycerine, and 1,2-propanediol) may also be used. Amine-containing solvents, such as monoethanolamine, diethanolamine and triethanolamine, may also be used. 
     The cleaning compositions may contain from about 5% to about 90%, and in some examples, from about 10% to about 50%, by weight of the composition, of such carriers. For compact or super-compact heavy-duty liquid or other forms of cleaning compositions, the use of water may be lower than about 40% by weight of the composition, or lower than about 20%, or lower than about 5%, or less than about 4% free water, or less than about 3% free water, or less than about 2% free water, or substantially free of free water (i.e., anhydrous). 
     For powder or bar cleaning compositions, or forms that include a solid or powder component (such as powder-containing unit dose cleaning composition), suitable fillers may include, but are not limited to, sodium sulfate, sodium chloride, clay, or other inert solid ingredients. 
     For either compacted or supercompacted liquid or powder cleaning compositions, or other forms, the level of liquid or solid filler in the product may be reduced, such that either the same amount of active chemistry is delivered to the wash liquor as compared to noncompacted cleaning compositions, or in some examples, the cleaning composition is more efficient such that less active chemistry is delivered to the wash liquor as compared to noncompacted compositions. The wash liquor may be formed by contacting the cleaning composition to water in such an amount so that the concentration of cleaning composition in the wash liquor is from above 0 g/l to 6 g/l. In some examples, the concentration may be from about 0.5 g/l to about 5 g/l, or to about 3.0 g/l, or to about 2.5 g/l, or to about 2.0 g/l, or to about 1.5 g/l, or from about 0 g/l to about 1.0 g/l, or from about 0 g/l to about 0.5 g/l. These dosages are not intended to be limiting, and other dosages may be used that will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art. 
     Buffer System 
     The cleaning compositions described herein may be formulated such that, during use in aqueous cleaning operations, the wash water will have a pH of between about 3.0 and about 11.5, and in some examples, between about 5.0 and about 10. Techniques for controlling pH at recommended usage levels include the use of buffers, alkalis, or acids, and are well known to those skilled in the art. These include, but are not limited to, the use of sodium carbonate, citric acid or sodium citrate, lactic acid or lactate, monoethanol amine or other amines, boric acid or borates, and other pH-adjusting compounds well known in the art.

     Hydrolysis Rate of Functionalized Silicone 
     Procedure Overview 
     The test was conducted at 21° C. in a phosphate buffered solution using esterase and lipase enzymes (Sigma Aldrich). These enzymes were recombinant from a variety of organisms that are ubiquitous in the environment. The material tested was the siloxane polymer of Example 1. The polymer was added to the aqueous system in tetrahydrofuran (THF) to a target concentration of 2.5 μg/mL polymer and 1% solvent by volume. The enzymes were added in excess. The analytical endpoint was the appearance of the amine moiety, methyl diethanolamine (MDEA), which would release upon hydrolysis of the adjacent ester groups. MDEA was measured by HPLC/MS/MS, using hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography and  2 H 3 -MDEA as an internal standard. The lower limit of quantitation (LOQ) was 0.10 ng/mL or 3.2% of theoretical MDEA dosed to the test system as polymer. Controls were run to monitor enzymatic activity in the presence of polymer and solvent, measure background MDEA levels in the absence of polymer, and check for non-enzymatic hydrolysis of the ester bonds. The test was conducted in triplicate and sampled at 0, 4 and 24 hr. Results are expressed as a percentage of theoretical MDEA.
