A solid, particulate composition having at least one water-soluble carrier material, at least one fragrance and at least one water-miscible organic solvent, wherein the carrier material is a water-containing salt (hydrate) whose water vapor partial pressure at a specific temperature in the range from 30 to 100&#xb0; C. corresponds to the HO partial pressure of the saturated solution of this salt, such that the salt melts at this temperature in its own crystal water. The invention further relates to processes for producing the solid composition, and to a washing or cleaning product including the solid composition. In addition, the present invention also relates to the use of a washing or cleaning product of this kind for cleaning of textiles or hard surfaces, and corresponding methods of cleaning textiles or hard surfaces using a washing or cleaning product of this kind.

Solid fragrance-containing composition with an inorganic/organic rheology modifier mixture

A solid, particulate composition having at least one water-soluble carrier material, at least one fragrance and at least one rheology modifier, wherein the carrier material is a water-containing salt (hydrate) whose water vapor partial pressure at a specific temperature in the range from 30 to 100&#xb0; C. corresponds to the HO partial pressure of the saturated solution of this salt, such that the salt melts at this temperature in its own crystal water. The invention further relates to processes for producing the solid composition, and to a washing or cleaning product including the solid composition. In addition, the present invention also relates to the use of a washing or cleaning product of this kind for cleaning of textiles or hard surfaces, and corresponding methods of cleaning textiles or hard surfaces using a washing or cleaning product of this kind.

Solid perfume-containing composition

The present disclosure relates to a liquid surfactant composition containing a surfactant mixture, water and at least one amylase as defined herein. The present disclosure also relates to a method for cleaning textiles including providing a washing liquor by dosing a liquid surfactant composition, mixing this dosage into at least one solvent, and bring the resulting mixture into contact with the textiles.

Surfactant composition comprising an amylase

A solid particulate composition including, based on the total weight of the composition, a) 20 to 95 wt. % of at least one water-soluble carrier material selected from hydrous salts of which the water vapor partial pressure corresponds, at a specific temperature in the range from 30 to 100&#xb0; C., to the HO partial pressure of the saturated solution of salt; b) 0.1 to 20 wt. % fragrance; and c) 0.1 to 30 wt. % of at least one textile-care compound. The invention further relates to the use and a method for the preparation of a solid particulate composition.

A structured liquid washing agent or cleaning agent with a flow limit, containing a surfactant system of anionic surfactants, nonionic surfactants and co-surfactants, inorganic salt and an amphiphilic compound, as well as a washing method in which the washing agent or cleaning according to the invention is used, and corresponding uses.

Structured washing agent or cleaning agent with a flow limit

The present invention relates to washing or cleaning agents having improved foaming characteristics under high soil loading, containing at least one anionic surfactant and at least one alkylamidopropyl betaine of formula (R)C(&#x2550;O)NH(CH)N(R)(R)CHCOO, where Ris an alkyl radical having 7 to 9 carbon atoms and Rand Rare identical or different alkyl radicals having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, wherein the weight ratio of the alkylamidopropyl betaine defined herein/total amount of anionic surfactant in the washing or cleaning agent is from 0.003 to 0.12, wherein the weight ratio of the total amount of alkylamidopropyl betaine as defined herein/total amount of alkylamidopropyl betaine in the washing or cleaning agent is 0.25 to 1.0, to washing or cleaning methods in which washing or cleaning agents of this kind are used.

Washing or cleaning composition having improved foaming characteristics with a high level of soiling

Methods and apparatus are provided for containing and dispensing a particulate detergent composition. The apparatus includes a transparent container. The transparent container holds a solid state particulate detergent composition. The apparatus also includes a solid state particulate detergent composition. The solid state particulate detergent composition includes a number of surfactants.

Solid state detergent in a transparent container

A process for producing a detergent portion, comprising the steps of forming one or more dimensionally stable hollow bodies comprising at least one compartment by injection moulding, providing one or more means for compartmentalizing the dimensionally stable hollow bodies, filling the compartment with at least one detersive formulation, and closing the compartment to form a partial or whole enclosure around the detersive formulation.

Process for producing a hollow body with a compartment, containing a portion of a washing, cleaning or rinsing agent

Detergent portions containing at least one detersive formulation wholly or partly contained in a dimensionally stable hollow body having an enclosure that wholly or partly surrounds the detersive formulation, the enclosure being formed of an uncompressed material that can disintegrate under laundering, cleaning, or washing conditions and that gives the hollow body dimensional stability, and optionally, the dimensionally stable hollow body having one or more means forming one or more compartments therein.

Hollow body with a compartment, containing a portion of a washing, cleaning or rinsing agent

A process for the production of a flowable suspension containing phthalimidoperoxyhexanoic acid by combining phthalimidoperoxyhexanoic acid in granular form with a liquid alcohol and grinding the combination to form a flowable suspension of the phthalimidoperoxyhexanoic acid in the alcohol.

Method for the production of suspensions comprising phthalimidoperoxyhexanoic acid

A textile-care composition that advantageously combines colour preservation with care of fibres and especially greying-inhibiting action was to be developed. That was achieved by means of a composition for textile care, comprising at least one cellulase and at least one colour-fixing polymer containing imidazolidine units.

Fabric-care agent

Surfactant combinations containing C alkyl sulfates wherein less than 10% by weight of the C alkyl sulfates, based on the C alkyl sulfates, have carbon chains with fewer than 14 carbon atoms and C alkyl benzenesulfonates in a weight ratio of 1:10 to 10:1. The combinations are useful in powder and granular as well as liquid washing and cleaning detergents.

Surfactant combination containing alkylsulfate and alkylbenzenesulfonate anionic surfactants

Cationic polymers comprising at least 40 mole percent monomer units of the formula (I):

Cleaning agent for hard surfaces based on cationic polymer soil-release compounds

Liquid crystalline, aqueous surfactant preparations

The stability in storage and flowability of liquid water-based alkyl glycoside preparations of relatively low concentration were to be improved and their handling under in-use conditions was to be facilitated by an increase in viscosity with very small quantities of non-alkyl-glycoside active substance. This was achieved by gel-form aqueous mixtures consisting essentially of 2% by weight to 15% by weight of an alkyl glycoside corresponding to the formula R.sup.1 --O(G).sub.n, in which R.sup.1 is an alkyl radical containing 8 to 22 C atoms, G is a glycose unit and n is a number of 1 to 10, 0.05% by weight to 2% by weight of an anionic surfactant of the sulfate or sulfonate type, the ratio by weight of alkyl glycoside to sulfate and/or sulfonate being 40:1 to 5:1, and 83% by weight to 97.95% by weight water or a mixture of water with a water-miscible organic solvent.
