Compositions for cleaning equipment, preferably paper or carpet making equipment, and methods of cleaning equipment, preferably paper or carpet making equipment using the said composition. The cleaning composition comprises of one or more fatty acid methyl esters, preferably vegetable oil methyl ester, more preferably soybean oil methyl ester, one or more alkene carbonate, preferably propylene carbonate; one of more surfactants, preferably nonionic surfactants; and one or more glycol ether and/or dibasic ester containing solvents.

Detergents and cleaning agents containing an anionic surfactant of general formula (I), in which n is a number from 5 to 21 and X.sup.+ is a charge-balancing cation. Also disclosed are an agent or a use, characterized in that, in the compound of general formula (I), X.sup.+ is selected from the group including the proton, alkali metal cations and the group N.sup.+R.sup.1R.sup.2R.sup.3, where R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are, independently of one another, hydrogen, an alkyl group with 1 to 6 C atoms or a hydroxyalkyl group with 2 to 6 C atoms.

A fabric softener composition for liquid carbon dioxide-based cleaning includes: an organic solvent expressed as chemical formula 1, and a cationic surfactant, where the chemical formula 1 is R1—O—(CO)—O—R2, and R1 and R2 are hydrogen (H) or an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms.

A composition comprising a non-cationic amine epoxide adduct is disclosed, along with methods of making the same. Use of a composition comprising a non-cationic amine epoxide adduct on textiles and paper, particularly woven textiles, tissues, and nonwoven textiles to soften the textiles and paper, along with methods of using a non-cationic amine epoxide adduct to treat a target, are also disclosed.

An article includes a unit dose packet of a concentrated cleaning composition for cleaning laundry. The concentrated cleaning composition comprising a nonionic surfactant, fatty acid methyl ester sulfonate, fatty acid soap, one or a plurality of enzymes, and a solvent system. The cleaning composition is compatible with polyvinyl alcohol film. The unit dose packet includes the concentrated laundry cleaning composition disposed in a single chamber, dual chamber, or multi-chamber unit dose packet having a total weight of the concentrated cleaning composition of from 15 grams to 30 grams.

The present invention relates to personal care compositions comprising malodor reduction compositions and methods of making and using such personal care compositions. Such personal care compositions comprising the malodor control technologies disclosed herein provide malodor control without leaving an undesireable scent and when perfume is used to scent such compositions, such scent is not unduely altered by the malodor control technology.

A vehicle hard surface cleaning composition is provided that includes a surfactant present from 0.1 to 8.0 total weight percent, a hydrotrope present from 0.1 to 3.0 total weight percent, a wetting agent present from 0.1 to 5.0 total weight percent, a protectant present from 0.01 to 17 total weight percent, and a diluent making up a remainder of the composition. A method of cleaning a vehicle hard surface include applying the composition thereto and washing the composition therefrom to leave a residue of graphene or graphene oxide.

This present invention is directed to antimicrobial fabric care compositions that provide detersive benefits such as stain and soil removal and aesthetic benefits like softening, wrinkle-reduction and color-protection and when used discretely or synergistically during the laundry program reduce the risk of infections and promote health and hygiene by providing dose-dependent antimicrobial activities such as sanitizing, disinfecting and removing malodors from fabrics, and imparting 24-48 hour antimicrobial-durability into fabrics, and deactivating biofilms inside the washing machine and preventing biofilm formation inside the washing machine to prevent recontamination of fabrics. The compositions are well-suited for use in domestic, commercial and on-premise-laundry-operations such as healthcare facilities, hotels, cruise ships, and the like. Methods for discrete and synergistic uses to simultaneously treat fabrics and the internal surfaces of the washing machine are also disclosed.

The invention relates to stable, anhydrous concentrated disinfectant formulations.

The present disclosure provides a laundry care composition having at least one laundry care ingredient and at least one leuco composition conforming to Formula (I):

##STR00001##

wherein Ar.sup.2 and Ar.sup.3 are independently a carbocyclic aryl or heteroaryl, and Ar.sup.1 is selected from the group consisting of: unsubstituted phenyl, electron deficient carbocyclic aryl, and heteroaryl. The present disclosure also provides a method of determining an authentic laundry care composition and test kits for detecting authentic laundry care compositions.
