POLYMERS FOR LAUNDRY APPLICATIONS

摘要

The present invention relates to use of a compound for promoting antiredeposition during laundering of a textile fabric, in which the compound is a polymer comprising a polysaccharide backbone substituted by one or more groups - L-R<SUP>1</SUP>, where L represents an ester, amide or ether linkage and R1 represents a sulphoalkyl group or a salt thereof, and having a degree of substitution of from 0.2 to 1.5. The use of such polymers in the manufacture of a laundry cleaning composition is also provided as well as laundry cleaning compositions containing such polymers.
