Patent ID: 8008245

Claim:
A liquid detergent composition for fabric cleaning and fabric care comprising: (a) an organosilicone having the formula: wherein each R is a C 1 -C 8 alkyl or aryl group X is a linking group; Q is selected from the group consisting of —NH 2 , —NH—(CH 2 ) 2 —NH 2 , —(O—CHR 2 —CH 2 )—Z, and mixtures thereof, wherein R 2 is H or C 1 -C 3 alkyl, and Z is selected from the group consisting of —OR 3 , —OC(O)R 3 , —CO—R 4 —CO—OH, —SO 3 , —PO(OH) 2 , and mixtures thereof, further wherein R 3 is H, C 1 -C 26 alkyl or substituted alkyl, C 6 -C 26 aryl or substituted aryl, C 7 -C 26 alkylaryl or substituted alkylaryl groups R 4 is —CH 2 — or —CH 2 CH 2 — groups; m is from 4 to 50,000; and k is from 1 to 25,000; (b) an emulsifier comprising anionic surfactant; (c) other laundry adjunct materials; and (d) a carrier comprising water; wherein the organosilicone is in the form of aqueous microemulsion having an average particle size less than about 100 nm; the detergent composition has a viscosity of from about 1 to about 2000 mPa*s; and the organosilicone has a HLB value of about 2 to about 7; and further wherein the composition comprises a detersive enzyme and a nitrogen-containing detersive surfactant selected from the group consisting of an amine oxide surfactant, an amine-functional detersive surfactant, and combinations thereof.
