Abstract
A detergent composition, comprising (A) an amide-ether derivative mixture comprising an amide-ether carboxylic acid or a salt thereof (1) and an amide-ether (2) in a weight ratio (1)/(2) of 99:1 to 10:90 in a proportion of at least 50 wt. % in total based on solids in the component (A), and containing glycerol derivatives (3) in a proportion not higher than 5 wt. % of the solids, and (B) a specific anionic surfactant such as a polyoxyalkylene alkyl ether sulfosuccinate (salt) or .alpha.-olefinsulfonic acid (salt). ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is a C.sub.5-23 alkyl or alkenyl group, or a phenyl group substituted by such an alkyl group, R.sup.2 is H, --(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O).sub.n CH.sub.2 COOM, --(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O).sub.m H or C.sub.1-3 alkyl group, M is a cation such as H or alkali metal, n and m are independently a number of 1-20, R.sup.3 is H, --(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O).sub.m H or C.sub.1-3 alkyl group, and R.sup.4 is H, --(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O).sub.n CH.sub.2 COOM or --(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O).sub.m H. The composition has low irritativeness and high foamability, and produce creamy foams.
