Substrate treating compositions comprising a C7 or higher monohydric alcohol
View Patent ↗The present invention is directed to a composition for improving substrate characteristics. The composition has a substrate enhancing agent, like a monohydric alcohol, and the composition reduces wrinkles in substrates that have not been subjected to ironing.
1. A sprayable composition for improving substrate characteristics, comprising:
(a) at least 3% of a C7 or greater monohydric alcohol;
(b) at least one compound selected from the group consisting of a dialkyl or trialkyl quaternary methyl ammonium compound, a substituted vegetable oil compound, or blends thereof;
(c) wherein the alkyl group of the dialkyl or trialkyl quaternary methyl ammonium compound is C12 to C22 and is in a concentration range of about 0.1–5% by wt.; and the substituted vegetable oil compound contains a group that increases water solubility of the oil and is the concentration range of about 0.1–15% by wt.;
(d) at least one nonionic surfactant wherein the total concentration of nonionic surfactants is in the range of about 0.5 to 10% by wt.; and
(e) water in the concentration range of about 70 to 99.9% by wt.
2. The composition of claim 1 wherein the monohydric alcohol is C15 or greater.
3. The composition of claim 1 further comprising a fragrance.
4. The composition of claim 1 wherein the fragrance composition is at least 0.2% by wt.
5. An article of manufacture, comprising:
(a) a spray dispenser;
(b) at least 3% of a C7 or greater monohydric alcohol;
(c) at least one compound selected from the group consisting of a dialkyl or trialkyl quaternary methyl ammonium compound, a substituted vegetable oil compound, or blends thereof;
(d) wherein the alkyl group of the dialkyl or trialkyl quaternary methyl ammonium compound is C12 to C22 and is in a concentration range of about 0.1–5% by wt.; and the substituted vegetable oil compound contains a group taht increases water solubility of the oil and is the concentration range of about 0.1–15% by wt.;
(e) at least one nonionic surfactant wherein the total concentration of nonionic surfactants is in the range of about 0.5 to 10% by wt.; and
(e) water in the concentration range of about 70 to 99.9% by wt.
6. The article of manufacture of claim 5 wherein the monohydric alcohol is C15 or greater.
7. The article of manufacture of claim 5 further comprising a fragrance.
8. The article of manufacture of claim 5 wherein the fragrance composition is at least 0.2% by wt.
