The present invention relates to ancillary laundry compositions providing improved softening to fabrics. In particular ancillary laundry compositions comprising silicones and low levels of surfactant
Textile fabrics, including clothes can often feel harsh after the laundry process. To reduce the harshness experienced after multiple wash cycles, technologies have been developed to increase the softness of fabrics post wash. These technologies include fabric conditioner compositions and softening systems added to detergent compositions.
WO 2014/079621 discloses a laundry detergent composition comprising: surfactant, fabric softening silicone and cationic polysaccharide polymer.
However there is a need to improve the softness benefit provided. Unilever co-pending application there is disclosed a fabric softening ancillary laundry composition, with improved softening. However due to the high levels of silicones and cationic polymers, in some cases a stabiliser is required. It has surprisingly been found that a particular class or fabric softening silicone and particular class of cationic polymer, used at the correct ratio, provide a stable ancillary laundry composition, without the requirement for a stabiliser.
In a first aspect of the present invention is an ancillary laundry composition comprising:
wherein the functionalised fabric softening polymer and cationic cellulose polymer are present in a ratio of 5:2 to 1:6 by weight.
In a second aspect of the present invention is a method of laundering fabrics, wherein the fabrics are treated with a laundry detergent composition and an ancillary laundry composition comprising:
In a third aspect of the present invention is provided a use of the ancillary laundry composition disclosed herein to enhance the softening provided by silicone to a fabric
Product Form
The present invention is concerned with ancillary laundry compositions. These are compositions intended to be used in addition to the consumer's regular laundry products. For example in addition to a wash detergent and/or rinse added fabric conditioners. However consumers may choose to use the product in anyway. The ancillary laundry composition may be added into that wash liquor at any point in the wash cycle.

Viscosity
The composition of the present invention preferably has a viscosity of less than 15000 Pa·s. Preferably the present invention has a viscosity of more than 400 Pa·s. Viscosity measurements were carried out at 25° C., using a 4 cm diameter 2° cone and plate geometry on a DHR-2 rheometer ex. TA instruments.
In detail, all measurements were conducted using a TA-Instruments DHR-2 rheometer with a 4 cm diameter 2 degree angle cone and plate measuring system. The lower Peltier plate was used to control the temperature of the measurement to 25° C. The measurement protocol was a ‘flow curve’ where the applied shear stress is varied logarithmically from 0.01 Pa to 400 Pa with 10 measurement points per decade of stress. At each stress the shear strain rate is measured over the last 5 seconds of the 10 second period over which the stress is applied with the viscosity at that stress being calculated as the quotient of the shear stress and shear rate.
For those systems which exhibit a low shear viscosity plateau over large shear stress ranges, to at least 1 Pa, the characteristic viscosity is taken as being the viscosity at a shear stress of 0.3 Pa. For those systems where the viscosity response is shear thinning from low shear stress the characteristic viscosity is taken as being the viscosity at a shear rate of 21 s-1.

Use of the Ancillary Laundry Composition
In one aspect of the present invention, the ancillary laundry composition of the present invention is used to enhance the benefits provided by silicone to a fabric
The benefits may be defined as: softness, elastic recovery, drape, shape, anti-creasing, wrinkle prevention, abrasive damage.
Preferably the benefit is defined as softness. i.e. use of the ancillary composition to enhance softening.
Method of Preparing Example Laundry Formulations:
Water and hydrotropes were mixed together at ambient temperature for 2-3 minutes at a shear rate of 150 rpm using a Janke & Kunkel IKA RW20 overhead mixer. Salts and alkalis were added and mixed for 5 minutes prior to addition of surfactants and fatty acid. The mixture was exothermic and allowed to cool to <30° C. The deposition polymer2 (when present), silicone emulsion1 (when present) and any remaining components such as perfume, preservatives and dyes are added.
Method of Producing Example Serum:
Demineralised water was added to the silicone emulsion1 and mixed for 15 mins at 250 rpm using a Janke & Kunkel IKA RW20 overhead mixer. The solid deposition polymer2 was added slowly over the top and mix for further 20 mins increasing the rotor speed to effect visible bulk mixing.
Comparison of Formulations:
A wash cycle was carried out using 6 (20 cm×20 cm) pieces of terry towelling and a polycotton ballast. The total wash load was 2.0 kg. The towelling was mixed with the ballast fabric in a random order before adding into a Miele front loading washing machine.
Detergent was added as follows:
Wash A: 100 g Laundry detergent with silicone
Wash 1: 100 g Laundry detergent without silicone and 10 g Ancillary Laundry Composition to the wash drawer
The machine was programed to a standard 40° C. cotton cycle. The towelling swatches were line dried between wash cycles. 5 wash cycles were performed.
The towels were measured for softness using a Phabrometer® ex. Nu Cybertek, Inc.
Despite having slightly lower levels of silicone and deposition polymer in Wash 1, the fabric is significantly softer.
Assessing Stability of Various Cationic Polymers and Carboxy Functionalised Silicone
Demineralised water was added to the carboxy functionalised silicone1 and was mixed for 15 minutes. The solid cationic polymer was added slowly to the mix and mixed for a further 20 minutes, with increasing speed. The mix was poured into a glass jar and initial visual stability was assessed. Instability is indicated by separation of the mixture.
For the premix composition, the cationic polymer was prepared as a 1% pre-mix with water, this was used in place of the demineralised in the method above.
Assessing Stability of Cationic Cellulose Polymer and Various Fabric Softening Silicones
Samples were prepared as in Example 1 with different types of silicones and cellulose cationic polymer. Visual stability was assessed over time.
Stability of the mix is only achieved with a mix of a functionalised silicone and cationic cellulose polymer between the ratios of 5:2 to 1:6 by weight.
