Abstract

A composition for coating a flexible textile sheet for the treatment of moist wash in a mechanical clothes drier, consisting essentially of: an active substance selected from the group consisting of textile softening agents, antistatic substances, fragrances, mixtures of the above and mixtures of the above with nonionic emulsifiers and additives, where said textile softening agents and antistatic substances are selected from the group consisting of quaternary nitrogen compounds derived from ammonia or imidazoline and having from 1 to 2 long chain hydrocarbyl groups with from 8 to 26 carbon atoms and mixtures of said quaternary nitrogen compounds with up to 80% by weight of the mixture of the condensation product of a higher fatty acid triglyceride with a hydroxy lower alkylpolyamine, wherein said composition contains from 0.2% to 5% by weight of at least one aliphatic low-molecular-weight hydroxycarboxylic acid, as well as, optionally, from 0.05% to 1% by weight of at least one optical brightener, both based on the total weight of textile softening agents and antistatic substances.
