Preferably main solvent content is remained on to making the present composition reach the translucent or transparent minimum level that can realize.The existence of water is for for reaching the transparent required main solvent of these compositions material impact being arranged.Water-content is high more, and is high more for realizing the transparent required main solvent content of product (with respect to softening agent content).Otherwise water-content is few more, and the main solvent (with respect to softening agent) that needs is few more.For example, under the low water content of about 5-15%, the weight ratio of softening agent actives and main solvent is about 55: 45 to about 85: 15, more preferably from about 60: 40 to about 80: 20.Under the water-content of about 15-70%, the weight ratio of softening agent actives and main solvent is preferably about 55: 45 to about 70: 30, more preferably from about 55: 45 to about 70: 30.But under the high water content of about 70-about 80%, the softening agent actives is preferably about 30: 70 to about 55: 45 with the weight of solvent ratio, more preferably from about 35: 65 to about 45: 55.When the water yield was higher, the ratio of softening agent/main solvent also should be higher.

The mixture of above main solvent is superior especially, because one of problem relevant with a large amount of solvents is security.Mixture has reduced the quantity of any existing material.Smell and combustibility also can reduce by using mixture, and especially when one of main solvent was volatility and/or scent of, this was likely for low molecular weight substance.Primary solvent is one or more solvents in confirmed most preferred ClogP scope before this in the preferred mixture.It also is desirable using solvent mixture, and especially when in the preferred main solvent one or more at room temperature were solid, in this situation, mixture was a fluid, or has lower fusing point, thereby has improved the workability of softener composition.

Also find, to replace a part of main solvent of the present invention or main solvent mixture be possible and be desirable with second solvent that itself can not use as main solvent of the present invention or second solvent mixture, as long as still there is the of the present invention suitable main solvent of effective quantity in the fabric softener composition of spissated liquid clear.Effective quantity of main solvent of the present invention, under the situation that at least also has about 15% softening agent actives, about 5% greater than composition at least, be preferably greater than about 7%, more preferably greater than about 10%.Substituting solvent can use with any content, but preferably is substantially equal to or is less than the quantity of the main solvent that is suitable for of the above-mentioned definition that exists in fabric softener composition.

Below unrestricted example exemplify explanation the present invention, wherein all numerical value is according to normal empirical approximation.Prepare composition by the softening agent actives of preheating is added in " the water-bed thing " that comprises water and accessory constituent, but be more preferably at room temperature, particularly after actives and spices pre-mixing.The preparation of biodegradable fabric sofetening actives

A kind of preferred triglyceride level source that can be used for preparing fabric sofetening composition of the present invention is a Canola Oil.Canola Oil is to have the suitably mixture of the triglyceride level of chain length distribution and corresponding acyl group degree of unsaturation.Because of the reason of several respects, Canola Oil is a desirable especially initiator in the inventive method.Particularly, the obviously a high proportion of acyl group that contains 18 carbon atoms is arranged in the chain length of each acyl group natural distributed, avoided thus when using other C ₁₈The extra-expense that the lipid acid commercial source is born during as initiator.

The triglyceride level initiator can be partially hydrogenated, if need, with two undersaturated and triunsaturated acyl groups, those acyl groups that particularly contain 18 carbon atoms change into their monounsaturated counterparts.Usually wish to reduce the hydrogenation of single unsaturated acyl group, even avoid hydrogenation fully.Can obtain saturated acyl group by common saturated thing source, and mix with undersaturated acyl group.In some acyl group mixtures that are suitable for, unsaturated C ₁₈Acyl group is no more than 10% with respect to its saturated counterpart and is hydrogenated.For some product, two undersaturated and triunsaturated C ₁₈The hydrogenation of acyl group is preferably maximum, meets the saturated C of minimum formation ₁₈Group.For example, three unsaturated acyl groups can be hydrogenated fully, and two unsaturated acyl groups are not realized complete hydrogenation.

The hydrogenation of the maximum triglyceride level initiator of single unsaturated acyl group can easily be realized by the proper equilibrium that keeps the hydrogenation condition.The effect of the technique change in the triglyceride level hydrogenation and these variations of adjustment is that those skilled in the art very know usually.Generally, the hydrogenation of triglyceride level initiator can more preferably be carried out in about 185 ℃ of-195 ℃ of slightly narrow scopes about 170 ℃-205 ℃ (in general).Other tangible technique change is the pressure of hydrogen in the hydrogenation reactor.Generally, this pressure should be maintained at about 2-20 pound/inch ²(in general), more preferably at about 5-15 pound/inch ²

In these parameter areas, under the situation of having considered these parameter effects especially, can carry out hydrogenation.Lower hydrogen pressure can allow to control to a greater degree reaction in the reactor, particularly for its selectivity." selectivity " meaning is the hydrogenation of two unsaturated acyl groups and three unsaturated acyl groups, and does not have the hydrogenation of the unsaturated acyl group of over-drastic list.On the other hand, higher hydrogen pressure provides lower selectivity.Selectivity is desirable in some instances.

Higher hydrogenation temperature is relevant with the bigger selectivity of hydrogenation speed and hydrogenation faster.On the contrary, lower hydrogenation temperature is relevant with lower selectivity (that is, having increased the hydrogenation of single unsaturated group), and is particularly relevant with general low hydrogenation speed.

These consider also to want the consideration of balance stereochemistry aspect.More particularly, the existence of degree of unsaturation can cause acyl group to form different steric isomers through hydrogenation in the acyl group.Two kinds of possible stereoisomerism configurations of unsaturated fatty acyl group are known as " cis " and " trans " type.It is preferred having the cis type, because its relevant than low melting point with the finished product, so product has bigger flowability.Canola Oil is that another reason of particularly preferred triglyceride level initiator is, as naturally occurring material, the acyl group performance that exists in this triglyceride level only is the cis form.In hydrogenation, also to become trans structural changes trend by cis relevant with reducing acyl group for higher hydrogen-pressure.In addition, for some reason, though higher hydrogenation temperature is favourable, it also with cis insatiable hunger form and relevant to the higher conversion of trans type.By suitably controlling hydroconversion condition, so that obtain the stereochemical structure of selectivity and control product, the product that can obtain having satisfied character.

Hydrogenation is to carry out in the presence of the hydrogenation catalyst that is fit to.This catalyzer is known, and commercial buying.They generally include generally nickel, palladium, ruthenium or the platinum on suitable support of the catalyst.The catalyzer that is fit to is the nickel-base catalyst of being sold with commodity register name " N-545 " by Engelhard.

In a kind of technique change, hydrogenation proceeds to two unsaturated and being hydrogenated to greatest extent of three degrees of unsaturation in the triglyceride level product and the formation of saturated acyl group reduces to the sink node of minimum degree.Process near the hydrogenation reaction of terminal point can easily be monitored by the iodine number of periodic measurement reactive material.Along with the carrying out of hydrogenation, iodine number reduces.For example, when iodine number reaches about 95 the time, hydrogenation reaction can stop.

Other requirement of hydrogenation reaction is known, for example the type of reactor, keep temperature required cooling apparatus, provide the whipping device of the abundant contact between triglyceride level and hydrogen and the catalyzer etc. effectively.

The general hydrolysis of triglyceride level that contains required acyl group obtains required fatty acyl group, for example corresponding lipid acid.That is, three ester bonds in the triglyceride level disconnect, thus acyl group add hydrogen mixture change into acyl group have identical chain length distribution and have the saturated and degree of unsaturation distribution that obtains by hydrogenation reaction the mixture of lipid acid.And other method comprises the use transesterification method to form for example methyl ester, and it is used for the esterification alkanolamine then, and is described above.

Hydrolysis can be carried out under any suitable condition known in the art, triglyceride hydrolysis is become their fatty acid component.Generally, triglyceride level reacts with high-temperature steam in reactor, and wherein lipid acid is isolated from glycerine, and vapor condensation forms the aqueous solution of glycerine and removes this solution then.

The mixture of the lipid acid that obtains at hydrolysing step is used for for example formula R-N (CH of esterification then ₂CH ₂OH) ₂One or more amine, wherein R definition as above, methyl preferably.In addition, can obtain required esterification by transesterification with corresponding fatty acyl group ester such as methyl ester.

Esterification can be carried out under the enzymatic synthesis condition of routine, as long as tart catalyzer and taking-up byproduct of reaction water of condensation.Preferably, a spot of, the Hypophosporous Acid, 50 (HPPA) of the general about reactant of as many as (being acid and amine) 1.0% weight can add in the esterification reaction mixture.HPPA is considered to can catalyzed reaction and protection or even improve the color of the product that obtains in this reaction.

In one embodiment of the present invention, allow esterification to carry out fully, so that lipid acid two esterifications that all amine quilts that exist produce in hydrolysing step in advance.But, wish sometimes to produce a spot of corresponding monoesters, as discussed above.
