A delivery system for uniform deposition of fabric care actives to a fabric article in a non-aqueous solvent based fabric treatment process; and compositions capable of uniformly depositing the fabric care actives on the fabric article being treated to achieve maximum benefit.

A process for purifying a lipophilic fluid employing a functionalized fabric treating agent. The functionalized fabric treating agent is capable of delivering fabric treating benefits in a non-aqueous fabric article treatment process and is designed for easy removal from the non-aqueous solvent after the fabric article treatment process. Laundry soils can also be removed by this process. The present invention also relates to a fabric treatment composition containing the functionalized fabric… Show more

Provided are leave-on hair care compositions which can impart enhanced hair conditioning and damage protection, while being formulated in a low viscosity product. In particular, the atomizible leave-on hair care composition comprise: (i) from about 0.1% to about 10%, by weight, of a cationic crosslinked polymeric conditioning agent comprising the monomer units (A)m (B)n (C)p and a crosslinking agent wherein: (A) is a dialkylaminoalkyl acrylate monomer or a quaternary ammonium or acid addition… Show more
