 Fabric softener composition containing molecular sieve zeolite - Patent 4610796
Typically the percentage of the softener is 3 to 30% and that of the molecular sieve zeolite is 5 or 10 to 60%.
The molecular sieves utilized in the invented compositions are water insoluble crystalline aluminosilicate zeolites of natural and synthetic origin which are characterized by having a network of similarly or substantially uniformly sized pores in the range of about 3 to 10 Angstroms, which size is uniquely determined by the unit structure of the zeolite crystal.
The molecular sieve zeolite acts as a carrier for the softening composition and is a highly effective detergency builder; in other words it boosts the cleaning effect of detergent compositions in which it is incorporated or with which it is used.
