The solid composition for releasing the silicone active ingredient contains a cationic polymer, a silicone active ingredient, and optionally a thickener and a carrier. The cationic polymer is preferably a homopolymer or a copolymer. The cationic polymer has a higher water solubility at neutral pH than at a basic pH of 9-11. The granular encapsulating composition can be prepared by using the solid silicone release composition as an ingredient in laundry detergent powders, tablets or bars. This is particularly aimed at delivery of the silicone component in the rinse cycle of the laundry operation. |
