Abstract

Novel polycationic or polyguaternary ammonium ionenes, which generally are hygroscopic, and processes for their preparation, are described. The compounds are useful as conditioning agents for skin, hair, textile products and powders.

Claims

1. A hair conditioning composition comprising an effective amount of a compound of the formula ##STR8## wherein Δ

is selected from the group consisting of S and O, n is at least one and R₁ and R₂ may be the same or different and are selected from the group consisting of methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, 2-hydroxyethyl and --CH₂ CH₂ (OCH₂ CH₂)_x OH wherein x may be 0 to 6;

fatty anionic surfactants, and a conventional carrier agent for hair conditioning compositions.

2. A hair conditioning composition comprising an effective amount of a compound of the formula ##STR9## wherein Δ

is selected from the group consisting of S and O, n is at least one and R₁ and R₂ may be the same or different and are selected from the group consisting of methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, 2-hydroxyethyl and --CH₂ CH₂ (OCH₂ CH₂)_x OH wherein x may be 0 to 6;

fatty anionic surfactants, and a conventional carrier agent for hair conditioning compositions.

3. A fabric conditioning composition comprising an effective amount of a compound of the formula ##STR10## wherein Δ

is selected from the group consisting of S and O, n is at least one and R₁ and R₂ may be the same or different and are selected from the group consisting of methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, 2-hydroxyethyl and --CH₂ CH₂ (OCH₂ CH)_x OH wherein x may be 0 to 6;

anionic surfactants, and a conventional carrier agent for fabric conditioning compositions.

4. A fabric conditioning composition comprising an effective amount of a compound of the formula ##STR11## wherein Δ

is selected from the group consisting of S and O, n is at least one and R₁ and R₂ may be the same or different and are selected from the group consisting of methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, 2-hydroxyethyl and --CH₂ CH₂ (OCH₂ CH₂)_x OH wherein x may be 0 to 6;

fatty anionic surfactants, and a conventional carrier agent for fabric conditioning compositions.
