Isosorbide monoesters according to the general formula (I) wherein R' or R&#x2033; represent a hydrogen atom, or an group CO&#x2014;R&#x2032;&#x2033;, with the proviso that one group R&#x2032; or R&#x2033; is a hydrogen atom, and R&#x2032;&#x2033; represents linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated alkyl- or alkenyl groups with 6 to 22 C-atoms are useful compounds in the preparation of all kind of detergents, in particular dish washing detergents or of cosmetic preparations. 

Isosorbide monoesters and their use in household applications

The invention relates to selected surface-active substances of groups a) and b), the surface-active compound a) being selected from compounds of general formula (Ia), wherein M represents a group CH&#x2014;CHor CHR&#x2014;CH, R, R' or R&#x2033; independently represent saturated, unsaturated, linear or branched alkyl groups or alkenyl groups with 6 to 22 C atoms, and the indices n and m independently can have values between 1 and 40, and/or compounds of general formula (Ib), wherein R&#x2032;&#x2033; and R&#x2033;&#x2033; independently represent saturated, unsaturated, linear or branched alkyl groups or alkenyl groups with 4 to 22 C atoms, and the indices n and m independently can have values between 1 and 40 and X&#x2032; and X&#x2033; independently represent H or saturated, unsaturated, linear or branched alkyl groups or alkenyl groups with 1 to 18 C atoms. The surface active substances of the invention, either on their own or combined with other nonionic surfactants, lead to dishwashing agents with an improved drying performance, especially in multifunctional agents for automatic dishwashers. 

Use of a mixture of non-ionic surfactants in cleansing compositions

A cleansing article having a substrate capable of absorbing and retaining a fluid therein, the substrate being impregnated with a cleaning composition containing a hydroxy mixed ether.

Wet wipes (I)

Liquid compositions containing one or more anionic surfactants in combination with one or more polydiallyl dialkyl ammonium compounds or derivatives or copolymers thereof, these compositions being suitable for the production of liquid laundry detergents, preferably for dye-transfer-inhibiting liquid color-protecting detergents.

Liquid detergent comprising anionic and nonionic surfactant mixtures

Compositions comprising glycerol hydroxyalkyl and/or hydroxyalkenyl ethers, which correspond to the general formula: in which R, Rand R, independently, represent a hydrogen atom or a saturated or unsaturated, branched or unbranched hydroxyalkyl or hydroxyalkenyl group, or mixtures thereof, each group containing 10 to 22 carbon atoms, and the use of these, particularly, glycerol hydroxyalkyl mono- and di-ethers in detergents and as rinse agents for automatic dish detergents, particularly for multifunctional dish detergents.

Dishwashing detergent containing glycerol hydroxyalkyl ethers

A method for treating fibers, yarns or textiles to improve the sensory effect for a user or weaver of a fabric article. The method treats the fiber, yarns or textiles with an emulsion containing 15-30% by weight of a mixture of waxes having melting points in the range of 35&#xb0; C. to 60&#xb0; C. including a lipophilic wax matrix; 10%-20% by weight of emulsifier which are at least one of alkyl or alkenyl oligoglycosides or alkyl ether sulfates, 1%-10% by weight of a crystal regulator which can be partial esters of Cfatty acids with at least one of glycerol, polyglycerol and sorbitan. The mean particle size of the wax crystals is not greater than 6 &#x3bc;m. The emulsion includes water and auxiliaries and additives.

Textile finishing agents for imparting a sensory effect during use

Detergent tablets are disclosed, which are characterized by containing surfactant granules, obtained by granulating and compacting anionic and/or non-ionic surfactants in the presence of dispersing agents.

Detergent tablets

A process for making a surfactant composition having an improved dissolution rate in cold water involving: (a) providing a hydroxy mixed ether surfactant; (b) providing a disintegrator component; and (c) granulating and compacting the hydroxy mixed ether surfactant in the presence of the disintegrator component.

Tenside granules with improved disintegration rate

A process for making solid sugar surfactants involving: (a) providing a glycose component; (b) acetalizing the glycose component with a fatty alcohol to form a technical mixture containing excess fatty alcohol and alkyl and/or alkenyl oligoglycoside; and (c) contacting the technical mixture with an extractant to form a solid phase containing the extractant, a predominant part of alkyl and/or alkenyl oligoglycoside and a small amount of fatty alcohol, and a liquid phase containing a predominant part of the fatty alcohol.

Method for producing solid sugar surfactants

An aqueous laundry detergent composition containing a hydroxy mixed ether.

Liquid detergents

Detergent tablets comprising surfactant granules obtained by granulation and compaction of a nonionic surfactant, selected from the group consisting of hydroxy mixed ethers, in the presence of a disintegrant, are described.

A process for making surfactant granules involving: (a) providing a surfactant component selected from the group consisting of a surface-active protein, a surface-active protein derivative, and mixtures thereof; (b) providing a disintegrator component; (c) combining the surfactant component and the disintegrator component to form a surfactant mixture; and (d) granulating and compacting the surfactant mixture to form the surfactant granules.

Process for preparing detergent granules with an improved dissolution rate

The invention relates to surfactant mixtures of hydroxy mixed ethers and polymers, optionally together with typical ingredients of dishwashing detergents and cleaners and optionally other nonionic surfactants and anionic surfactants and to the use of such surfactant mixtures for the preparation of cleaning solutions with improved performance against resoiling.

Compositions containing hydroxy mixed ethers and polymers

A detergent tablet composition containing surfactant granules made by a process involving: (a) providing a surfactant component selected from the group consisting of a surface-active protein, a surface-active protein derivative, and mixtures thereof; (b) providing a disintegrator component; (c) combining the surfactant component and the disintegrator component to form a surfactant mixture; and (d) granulating and compacting the surfactant mixture to form the surfactant granules.

A detergent composition containing: (a) an anionic surfactant selected from the group consisting of an alkylbenzenesulfonate, an alkyl sulfate, a soap, an alkanesulfonate, an olefinsulfonate, a methyl ester sulfonate, and mixtures thereof; (b) a non-enzymatic protein and/or derivative thereof; (c) a phosphate; (d) a disintegrating agent; an (e) optionally, a co-surfactant selected from the group consisting of a nonionic surfactant, an amphoteric surfactant, and mixtures thereof, and wherein the detergent composition is in a solid form.
