Patent ID: 8603960

Claim:
A fabric care composition comprising: a. from about 4% to about 30%, by weight of the fabric care composition, of a mixture of glycerides, each having the structure of Formula I wherein each R is independently selected from the group consisting of fatty acid ester moieties comprising carbon chains having a carbon chain length of from about 10 to about 22 carbon atoms; —OH; and combinations thereof; wherein the mixture of glycerides contains diglycerides, monoglycerides, and triglycerides in a weight ratio of about 4:6 to about 99.9:0.1 diglycerides to mono- and triglycerides; and b. from about 0.01% to about 10% by weight of the fabric care composition of a delivery enhancing agent, said delivery enhancing agent comprising a polymer having a net cationic charge c. a fabric softener active being selected from the group consisting of: (i) bis-(2-hydroxyethyl)-dimethylammonium chloride fatty acid ester having an average chain length of the fatty acid moieties of from 16 to 20 carbon atoms; (ii) bis-(2-hydroxypropyl)-dimethylammonium methylsulphate fatty acid ester having a molar ratio of fatty acid moieties to amine moieties of from 1.85 to 1.99, an average chain length of the fatty acid moieties of from 16 to 18 carbon atoms and an iodine value of the fatty acid moieties, calculated for the free fatty acid, of from 0.5 to 60; (iii) N,N-bis(stearoyl-oxy-ethyl)N,N-dimethyl ammonium chloride; (iv) N,N-bis(tallowoyl-oxy-ethyl)N,N-dimethyl ammonium chloride; (v) N,N-bis(stearoyl-oxy-ethyl)N-(2 hydroxyethyl)N-methyl ammonium methylsulfate; (vi) dicanoladimethylammonium chloride; (vii) di(hard)tallowedimethylammonium chloride; (viii) dicanoladimethylammonium methylsulfate; and (ix) mixtures thereof.
