A multiphase cleaning composition comprises a first phase and a second ionic liquid phase, wherein the second phase is substantially immiscible with the first phase. The first phase may comprise, for example, an aqueous phase or a silicone solvent system. Methods of cleaning a soiled surface comprise contacting a soiled surface with a multiphase wash liquor including a first phase and a second ionic liquid phase, wherein the second phase is substantially immiscible with the first phase, and removing soils from the surface.

Multiphase cleaning compositions having ionic liquid phase

Detergent compositions containing azo initiator compounds are provided. More particularly, detergent compositions containing azo initiator compounds having improved bleaching performance and stain-removal benefits, and methods of using the same, are provided. Composition of matter and articles of manufacture are also provided.

A process of imparting transparency or translucency to a liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent product is disclosed. The process includes the steps of providing a liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent composition expressly free from (i) potassium tripolyphosphate and (ii) mixture of sodium tripolyphosphate and potassium tripolyphosphate, adding one or more of potassium sources to the liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent composition, the potassium sources being expressly free of potassium tripolyphosphate, and maintaining a K:Na weight ratio greater than at least about 0.5:1.

Transparent or translucent, liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent product

A hard-surface cleaning composition for removing cooked-, baked-, or burnt-on food soil from cookware and tableware, the composition comprising a solvent system, wherein said solvent system comprises: a mono-, di- or tri-ethylene glycol phenyl ether or a mixture thereof; and a di- or tri-propylene glycol alkyl ether having an alkyl chain containing of from about 1 to about 5 carbon atoms or a mixture thereof.

Hard surface cleaning composition comprising a solvent system

A process for improving aesthetics of a liquid dishwashing detergent product is disclosed. The process includes the steps of providing a liquid dishwashing detergent composition and adding solid particles to the liquid dishwashing detergent composition. The particles are coated with a polymeric coating. The coating is prepared from materials which are insoluble in the liquid dishwashing detergent composition but soluble in dishwashing wash solution.

Liquid dishwashing detergent composition having polymeric particles

A method for improving stability of a dye used in a colored aqueous acidic rinse aid composition to ambient and ultra-violet light radiation is disclosed. The method includes the step of adding a chelant to an acidic rinse aid composition. The chelant is present in an amount of at least 1 ppm by weight of the rinse aid composition.

A process for forming a non-staining colored composite particle suitable for incorporation in a bleach-containing or a non-bleach-containing liquid detergent composition is disclosed. The process includes the steps of forming a colored liquid dispersion of pigment particles in a first liquid medium wherein the size of the pigment particles in the colored liquid dispersion is no greater than about 5 &mgr;m. The process includes the step of mixing the colored liquid dispersion with a polymeric material and a second liquid medium to form a sprayable colored polymeric material. The process also includes the step of spraying the colored polymeric material on a composite particle and forming a colored polymeric coating on the composite particle. A non-staining colored particle and a liquid ADW detergent composition are also disclosed.

Cleaning composition

A hard surface cleaning composition for removing cooked-, baked- or burnt-on soils from cookware and tableware, the composition comprising an organoamine solvent and wherein the composition has a liquid surface tension of less than about 24.5 mN/m and a pH, as measured in a 10% solution in distilled water, or least than 10.5. The composition can be used as pre-treatment prior to the dishwashing process. The composition provides excellent removal of polymerized grease from metal and glass substrates.

A detersive enzyme composite particle suitable for incorporation in a liquid detergent composition is disclosed. The enzyme composite particle includes an enzyme containing core material, an acidic barrier layer coated on the enzyme containing core material, and a physical barrier layer coated on the acidic barrier layer.
