Liquid laundry detergents containing cationic hydroxyethyl cellulose polymer
First Claim
1. An aqueous liquid laundry detergent composition useful for cleaning fabrics wherein the composition comprises:
- a) from about 0.05% to about 0.4%, by weight of the composition, of a cationic hydroxyethyl cellulose polymer having a degree of substitution of the cationic charge of from about 0.01 to about 0.20;
b) from about 5% to about 30%, by weight of the composition, of a surfactant comprising at least one anionic surfactant and at least one nonionic surfactant;
c) from about 2% to about 15%, by weight of the composition, of fatty acid; and
d) a benefit agent containing delivery particle, wherein the delivery particle is a perfume microcapsule;
wherein the composition comprises less than 0.001%, by weight of the composition, of enzymes having cellulytic activity; and
wherein the composition comprises less than 0.0001%, by weight of the composition, of optical brightener.
