مستخلص: The present invention relates to polyglycerol partial esters of linear, unsubstituted carboxylic acids and bifunctional carboxylic acids with the provisos that the polyglycerol partial ester comprises an HLB-value from 2 to 10 and that the polyglycerol obtained by hydrolysis or alcoholysis of the polyglycerol partial ester comprises an average degree of polymerization of from 2 to 8 and at least 1% of the polyglycerol comprises cyclic structures. The present invention also relates to the preparation thereof and their use in fabric and textile care products.

Claim: 4. Polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1 wherein the molar ratio of monocarboxylic acid component to dicarboxylic acid component is 2-20.
Claim: 5. Polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1 wherein the molar ratio of the dicarboxylic acid component to polyglycerol is from 0.1 to 1.0.
Claim: 6. Polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1 wherein said ester has a melting point of at least 25° C.
Claim: 7. A method for the preparation of polyglycerol partial esters comprising the steps of 1.) esterification of a) a polyglycerol mixture comprising an average degree of polymerization of from 2 to 8, and at least 1% of cyclic structures, with b) at least one monocarboxylic acid comprising a carboxylic acid HOR4, with R4 a linear, unsubstituted acyl radical with a chain length of from 16 to 22 carbon atoms with the proviso that the carboxylic acid or mixture of carboxylic acids bears an iodine value of smaller than 50, 2.) addition and further esterification with c) at least one dicarboxylic acid having the structure of general Formula (III)). [chemical expression included] with X a bivalent organic residue with from 2 to 34 carbon atoms or mixtures thereof with the proviso that the ratio by weight of polyglycerol mixture to the sum of monocarboxylic acid and dicarboxylic acid is in the range from about 0.11 to 1.
Claim: 8. A polyglycerol partial ester concentrate wherein a solvent is present consisting of A) at least 50 wt. % of at least one polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1, B) up to 50 wt. % of a solvent and optionally C) 0.1 wt. % to 5 wt. % of a preservative, wherein the wt. % refer to the total weight of the concentrate and the wt. % of all components sum up to 100 wt. %.
Claim: 9. Polyglycerol partial ester according to claim 1, wherein said ester has a melting point of at least 35° C.
