A solid, particulate composition having at least one water-soluble carrier material, at least one fragrance and at least one water-miscible organic solvent, wherein the carrier material is a water-containing salt (hydrate) whose water vapor partial pressure at a specific temperature in the range from 30 to 100° C. corresponds to the H.sub.2O partial pressure of the saturated solution of this salt, such that the salt melts at this temperature in its own crystal water. The invention further relates to processes for producing the solid composition, and to a washing or cleaning product including the solid composition. In addition, the present invention also relates to the use of a washing or cleaning product of this kind for cleaning of textiles or hard surfaces, and corresponding methods of cleaning textiles or hard surfaces using a washing or cleaning product of this kind.

Provided are a wiping detergent composition for textile products capable of, when wiping a stain derived from food or the like attached to a textile product using a detergent liquid, not only reducing the degree of soiling of the stain portion, but also reducing the spread of the stain around the stain portion, and a method for removing a stain attached to a textile product using the same. A wiping detergent composition for textile products containing the following component (a1) in an amount of 0.3 mass % or more and 10 mass % or less, the following component (b) in an amount of 0.1 mass % or more, and water, wherein the mass ratio of the content of component (a1) to the content of component (b), (a1)/(b), is 0.6 or more and 50 or less, component (a1): one or more surfactants selected from a nonionic surfactant with an HLB of 9 or more and 16.0 or less and an anionic surfactant, and component (b): an organic solvent having a hydroxyl group with a ClogP of −2.0 or more and less than 1.0.

Formulations comprising a nanostructured particles consisting of a solid acid, made of mixed oxides of silica and titania (TiO.sub.2—SiO.sub.2); supporting in its dispersed matrix: copper, silver, gold, iron, rutenium, rhodium, cobalt, zinc, palladium, zinc, manganese, iridium and/or platinum metals at minimal concentrations, and at least one functionalizing agent in contact with the particle, for use as a surface, material and personal cleaner.

Solid particulate compositions for fabric treatment having at least one cationic polymer, at least one water-soluble carrier, at least one fragrance, at least one buffer system, and other optional ingredients. During a wash cycle, the compositions deliver softening to the fabrics. The disclosure further provides a method of making a solid particulate composition for fabric treatment including: mixing a water-soluble solid carrier and a buffer system to form a mixture; wherein the solid carrier is an aqueous salt having a water vapor partial pressure at a temperature from about 30° C. to about 100° C. that corresponds to the water vapor partial pressure of a saturated solution of the salt at the same temperature; adding a cationic polymer and a fragrance into the mixture; mixing the mixture; heating the mixture and obtaining a melt thereby; and cooling and shaping the melt into individual particles including melt bodies.

The present disclosure provides compositions for fabric treatment having at least one dye transfer inhibitor (DTI), at least one water-soluble carrier, at least one fragrance, and at least one buffer system, and other optional ingredients. During a wash cycle, the compositions disclosed herein significantly boost color fading protection of fabrics. The present disclosure further provides a method of making a composition for fabric treatment, including mixing a water-soluble carrier and a buffer system to form a mixture; adding a dye transfer inhibitor (DTI) and a fragrance into the mixture; mixing the mixture; heating the mixture and obtaining a melt thereby; and cooling the mixture. The method can further include shaping the melt into individual particles having melt bodies, which can optionally be in the form of a pastille.

The present disclosure provides a method for preparing a microcapsule and a microcapsule prepared thereby capable of selective release of oils and preventing volatilization of oils while maintaining long-term performance by improving storage stability of the oil contained in the capsule.
