Patent ID: 6897193

Claim:
A solid composition comprising (a) a hydroxy mixed ether of the formula (I): wherein R 1 is a linear or branched alkyl group having from 2 to 18 carbon atoms, R 2 is hydrogen or a linear or branched alkyl group having from 2 to 18 carbon atoms, R 3 is a linear or branched alkyl and/or alkenyl group having from 1 to 22 carbon atoms, each of n1 and n2 independently is a number from 0 to 60 and m is 0 or a number from 0.5 to 5, with the provisos that the total number of carbon atoms in the substituents R 1 and R 2 is at east 6 and the sum (n1+m+n2) is greater than 0: (b) a polymer comprising units constituted from monomer units of the formula wherein n3 is a number from 2 to 4, R 1a is hydrogen or a methyl group and each of R 2a , R 3a and R 4a is independently hydrogen or a C 1-4 alkyl or alkenyl group, X − is a halide anion or monoalkyl anion of sulfuric acid semiester; (c) optionally, a nonionic surfactant; (d) optionally, an inorganic or organic carrier; and (e) optionally, an auxiliary.
