Patent ID: 7015188

Claim:
An aqueous fabric softening composition comprising: (i) about 11% to about 21% by weight based on the weight of said composition of a cationic fabric softening agent comprising at least two long hydrocarbyl chains; (ii) about 10% to about 35% by weight based on the weight of said composition of one or more hydrocarbon oils comprising from 11 to 30 carbon atoms; and (iii) one or more nonionic stabilisers comprising 0.5% to 2.7% by weight based on the weight of said composition of an alkoxylated alcohol having an average alkoxylation number of from 11 to 40; and (iv) a single long hydrocarbyl chain cationic surfactant; wherein the weight ratio of said oil to said nonionic stabilizer is about 60:1 to about 1:10; and wherein the composition is in the form of a macro-emulsion.
