An aqueous rinse cycle fabric softening composition is provided containing an esterquat softening compound which remains physically stable and which is characterized by a stable viscosity below about 500 cps such that it remains easily pourable over a wide range of ambient temperatures and for extended periods of time, which composition comprises: (a) from about 10% to about 25% by weight, of a biodegradable fatty ester quaternary ammonium compound derived from the reaction of an alkanol amine and a fatty acid derivative followed by quaternization, said fatty ester quaternary ammonium compound being represented by the formula: wherein Q represents a carboxyl group having the structure -OCO- or -COO-; R1 represents an aliphatic hydrocarbon group having from 8 to 22 carbon atoms; R2 represents -Q-R1 or -OH; q, r, s and t, each independently represent a number of from 1 to 3; and X<-a >is an anion of valence a; and wherein the normalized percentage of monoester compound in said fatty ester quaternary ammonium compound is from 28% to 39%; the normalized percentage of diester compound is from 52% to 62% and the normalized percentage of triester compound is from 7% to 14%; all percentages being by weight; and (b) from about 0.01% to about 1%, by weight, of an electrolyte. |
