Heavy duty liquid or granular detergent compositions containing emulsions of silicone and selected emulsifying surfactants are disclosed. The silicone emulsions preferably have an average particle size of from about 20 to about 300 microns and provide exceptional cleaning and softening benefits.

Laundry detergent compositions containing silicone emulsions

Heavy duty liquid detergent compositions containing selected cationic detersive surfactants and emulsions of silicone and selected emulsifying surfactants are disclosed. The silicone emulsions have an average particle size of from about 5 to about 500 microns and provide provide exceptional cleaning and softening benefits. The detergent compositions of this invention are structured and provide exceptional cleaning and softening benefits.

Liquid laundry detergent compositions containing surfactants and

Heavy duty liquid detergent compositions containing an anionic surfactant component, fatty acid and a quaternary ammonium fabric-softening agent of the formula ##STR1## The anionic surfactant component comprises, by weight of the composition, from about 5% to 40% of alkyl polyethoxylate sulfates and no more than about 5% of alkyl benzene sulfonates. The compositions are substantially clear and isotropic, provide excellent cleaning of soils and provide softening through the wash and anti-static benefits. The compositions preferably also contain an ethoxylated nonionic surfactant, a detergent builder and enzymes.

Stable, aqueous laundry detergent composition having improved softening

Liquid laundry detergents containing an improved biodegradable clay soil removal/anti-deposition agent which is a mixture of a polyamino acid (or a salt thereof) and a polyalkylene glycol.

Liquid laundry detergents containing polyamino acid and
