FLUID COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING POLYHYDROXY FATTY ACID AMIDES

摘要

A liquid premix for use in a detergent composition which comprises at least 40 % by weight of polyhydroxy fatty acid amide of formula (I), where R is C5-C31 hydrocarbyl, preferably straight-chain C7-C19 alkyl or alkenyl, R1 is C1-C4 hydrocarbyl and Z is polyhydroxyhydrocarbyl having a linear hydrocarbyl chain with at least 2 hydroxyls directly connected to the chain, and an effective amount of borate derived from any suitable borate functional material which prevents crystallisation and/or precipitation of said liquid premix when stored for at least 2 weeks at 20 DEG C.
