Multicompartment water-soluble unit dose articles and methods of making them.

The present disclosure relates to a container system comprising a flat package, which has walls that define an interior space, and at least one fibrous water-soluble unit dose article in the interior space, where the fibrous water-soluble unit dose article comprises household care active agents.

The disclosure relates to compositions comprising a polysaccharide derivative, wherein the polysaccharide derivative comprises a polysaccharide substituted with a) at least one hydrophobic group, and b) at least one hydrophilic group, wherein the polysaccharide is poly alpha-1,3-glucan, poly alpha-1,6-glucan, or poly alpha-1,3-1,6-glucan.

The present disclosure provides liquid and unit dose laundry detergent compositions. Provided herein is a laundry detergent composition including: (a) at least one anionic surfactant, (b) at least one non-ionic surfactant, (c) at least one cationic cellulosic polymer, (d) at least one dye transfer inhibitor polymer, (e) at least one anti-redeposition polymer, and (f) water. The present disclosure also provides a unit dose laundry detergent product including: a water-soluble polymeric film; a detergent composition encapsulated by the water-soluble polymeric film, the detergent composition including: (a) at least one anionic surfactant, (b) at least one non-ionic surfactant, (c) at least one cationic cellulosic polymer, (d) at least one dye transfer inhibitor polymer, (e) at least one anti-redeposition polymer, and (g) water. Methods of making and using the disclosed laundry detergent compositions are also provided.

An article for cleaning or hand-washing an object includes a core substrate comprising a plurality of fibers including a resin. The core substrate has one or more abrasive surfaces and contains an active cleaning formulation. The resin and the core substrate are water-dispersible upon contact with water at a low temperature, such as 40° C. or below, and water-soluble upon contact with water at a higher temperature. Also disclosed are methods for making the article.

A single unit dose article includes a water-soluble core substrate comprising a water-soluble resin. The water-soluble core substrate contains a carrier solvent with an active cleaning formulation, wherein upon contact of the carrier solvent with the water-soluble core substrate, the water-soluble core substrate exhibits shrinkage or swelling. Also disclosed are methods of making the single unit dose article.

A film: (a) 50 to 85 wt % polymer comprising: (i) 30 to 70 wt % hard polymer with T.sub.g from 40 to 70° C. and 40 to 80 wt % (C.sub.1-C.sub.10)alkyl (meth)acrylate; 10 to 40 wt % C.sub.3-C.sub.8 carboxylic acid; and 0 to 25 wt % hydroxyalkyl (meth)acrylate; and (ii) 30 to 70 wt % soft polymer with T.sub.g from −20 to 20 ° C. and 50 to 90 wt % (C.sub.1-C.sub.10)alkyl (meth)acrylate; 5 to 30 wt % C.sub.3-C.sub.8 carboxylic acid; and 0 to 25 wt % hydroxyalkyl (meth)acrylate;
hard T.sub.g minus soft T.sub.g is at least 30° C.; (iii) 0 to 10 wt %, of (C.sub.12-C.sub.24)alkyl (meth)acrylate polymer containing crystallizable portion with T.sub.m from 0° C. to 37° C.; (b) 10 to 40 wt % of polyethylene oxide having M.sub.w from 250,000 to 4,000,000; and (c) 0 to 10 wt % of poly(vinylpyrrolidone) having M.sub.w from 25,000 to 2,000,000.
