The present invention relates to laundry additive sachets. The sachets comprise at least two compartments and may comprise further compartments. At least one of the compartments comprises a liquid laundry additive composition.

Laundry additive sachet

A composition in a water-soluble pouch is provided.

Detergent product

A composition in a water-soluble pouch, the pouch comprises at least two compartments, and each compartment contains a different component of the composition, wherein a first compartment contains a first component and the first component comprises a liquid matrix and a source of peracid.

Compositions in a water-soluble pouch containing at least two compartments, each compartment containing a different component of the composition, where a first compartment contains a first component which contains a liquid matrix and a source of peracid.

A new chromotropic compound, compositions containing such a compound and methods of using such compound, such as in a test method for identifying the presence of free radicals, are disclosed.

Radical scavenger

The present invention relates to a liquid bleaching composition comprising a bleach and a substantially linear nonionic surfactant, whereby said substantially linear nonionic surfactant has the general formula: R&mdash;(A) &mdash;(B) &mdash;(C) &mdash;O&mdash;R wherein: R is an even numbered C to C alkyl chain or a mixture thereof, containing at least 90% linear alkyl chains; A is an ethoxy unit; B is a butoxy unit; C is a propoxy unit; x, y and z are independent integers of from 0 to 20; the sum of x&plus;y&plus;z is at least 2, wherein when x is equal to or greater than 1. y&plus;z is equal to or greater than 1; and R is H, a C to C alkyl chain or a C to C alkyl benzene chain. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the use of said substantially linear nonionic surfactant in a fabric bleaching composition comprising a bleach to treat a fabric whereby stain removal and/or bleaching benefits are provided.

Bleaching composition comprising substantially linear nonionic surfactants

A bleaching composition that contains a bleaching agent and a chromotrophic radical scavenging compound, and a test method for identifying the presence of free radicals is disclosed. Such compositions offer improved stability.

Bleaching composition containing chromotropic compound

A process of treating fabrics comprises the steps of forming an aqueous bath comprising water, dissolving or dispersing a conventional laundry detergent therein, adding a liquid composition comprising a peroxygen bleach, a builder and a modified polycarboxylate co-builder and subsequently contacting said fabrics with said aqueous bath. Furthermore, the use of a builder and a modified polycarboxylate co-builder in a laundry additive comprising a peroxygen bleach to treat fabrics, whereby stain removal and/or bleaching benefits are provided, is also claimed.

Process of treating fabrics with a laundry additive

The present invention relates to a liquid composition suitable for bleaching and pretreating soiled fabrics. Such composition provides cleaning and color safety benefits that are especially noticeable when such composition is used as a prespotter. The present invention also relates to methods of using such composition to bleach or pretreat fabrics.

Laundry bleaching compositions

The present invention relates to a liquid bleaching composition comprising a peroxygen bleach, a zwitterionic betaine surfactant, a sulphonated hydrotrope, and a nonionic surfactant. This composition is suitable to deliver excellent stain removal performance and bleaching performance on various surfaces including fabrics and hard-surfaces, with improved physical stability, especially at low temperatures.

Liquid bleaching compositions comprising hydrogen peroxide, betaine, and ethoxylated nonionic surfactant

The present invention relates to a liquid or solid bleaching composition comprising a peroxygen bleach and an alkoxylated benzoic acid or a salt thereof. This bleaching composition shows excellent immediate chemical stability and excellent chemical stability upon storage. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a process of treating a fabric and/or a process of treating a carpet.

Bleaching composition comprising an alkoxylated benzoic acid

Liquid multipurpose cleaning compositions comprising a peroxygen bleach, a surfactant that exhibits a foaming property in the presence of a peroxygen bleach and a foam reducing system and processes for using same are provided.

Liquid multipurpose-cleaning compositions with effective foam control

The present invention relates to a low viscosity, aqueous liquid composition suitable for bleaching and pretreating soiled fabrics. Such composition contains a peroxygen bleach, an ethoxylated nonionic surfactant, a zwitterionic betaine surfactant and a viscosity reducing agent. In addition to improved cleaning performance, such composition provides satisfactory fabric and color safety when used as a laundry pretreater.
