Abstract
A liquid detergent of desired viscosity, conveniently pourable at room temperature and fluid at lower temperatures, includes polyethoxylated higher alkanol nonionic synthetic organic detergent, either polyethoxy higher alkanol sulfate or higher alkyl benzene sulfonate synthetic anionic organic detergent or a mixture of both, lower alkanol, sodium chloride, sodium nitrate and water, in certain proportions. The presence of the sodium chloride-sodium nitrate mixture allows the use of a lesser quantity of lower alkanol as a thinning and viscosity controlling agent, helps to maintain the liquid detergent pourable at room temperature and lower temperatures, and to avoid production of film on the surface of the detergent when a volume thereof is left exposed to air in an open container, and the salt mixture is essentially non-corrosive.
