Included within the scope of the invention are methods of preparing a shelf-stable Formulation comprising mixing a solvent, at least one of a surfactant, a fabric conditioner, detersive agent (detergent), emulsifier, humectant, a colorant, a mechanical sunscreen, a fragrance, a chelator, an antioxidant, a UV absorbing compound, a particulate, a cationic emulsifier, a nonionic emulsifier, an anionic emulsifier, an antimicrobial, and a stabilizer selected from the group consisting of: a hydroxamic acid, or a salt and/or a complex thereof and a hydroxamic acid or a salt and/or a complex thereof and an alcohol, wherein the stabilizer is present in the Formulation in an amount of about 0.1% to about 3% by weight of the entire Formulation.

A pouch comprising a wall forming a chamber, the wall comprising a water-soluble polymer, and the chamber containing a particulate solid comprising an enzyme, and a liquid comprising a surfactant and/or a polyol. A method of preparing a pouch and a method of preparing an enzyme-containing detergent composition are disclosed.

The present invention discloses a method for manufacturing a four-phase heavy-duty laundry detergent wipe, characterized by the following steps: (a) manufacturing a liquid starting laundry detergent solution which contains enzymes, surfactants and at least one polyvalent alcohol as a solubilizer and which is present in a liquid phase; (b) incorporating soap in the liquid starting laundry detergent solution to obtain a liquid laundry detergent solution (A), wherein the liquid laundry detergent solution is two-phase due to over-saturation; (c) admixing at least two different washing active solid components to the liquid laundry detergent solution (A) which are insoluble in the polyvalent alcohols of step a) to obtain a laundry detergent dispersion (B) which contains the liquid over-saturated two-phase laundry detergent solution (A) from step b) as a liquid continuous outer binary phase and the at least two washing active solid components as a solid phase; (d) applying the laundry detergent dispersion (B) to a solid carrier substrate (C) such that the final product is a four-phase system. Furthermore, a four-phase heavy-duty laundry detergent wipe is disclosed, comprising a solid carrier substrate (C) and a laundry detergent dispersion (B) which has been applied to the carrier substrate, characterized in that the laundry detergent dispersion contains a liquid over-saturated two-phase laundry detergent solution (A), which contains enzymes, surfactants and soap and at least one polyvalent alcohol as a solubilizer, as a liquid continuous outer binary phase and at least two different washing active solid components as a solid phase which is insoluble in the solubilizer.

A cleaning formulation includes water in an amount in the range of about 95 to about 99 weight percent, non-volatile polyols in an amount in the range of about 0.1 to about 3.0 weight percent, and surfactant in an amount in the range of about 0.001 to about 2.0 weight percent. The surfactant is not limited to non-ionic surfactants and the ingredients are derived from natural sources or food-grade materials.

Provided herein are detergent formulations which can effectively suppress efflorescence in unit dose detergent packs. In accordance with one embodiment, the detergent formulations comprise an alkyl ethoxysulfate component having an alkyl chain length of about 12-18 carbon atoms and about 2-9 moles of ethylene oxide and a cation, an alcohol ethoxylate component having an alkyl chain length of about 12-18 carbon atoms and about 5-9 moles of ethylene oxide, high fructose corn syrup, and a liquid carrier.

Hard surface, in particular glass, cleaners having an ease in wipe-out while providing good cleaning with a streak-free, glossy shine are described. The cleaner includes at least one fluorosurfactant including a fluorinated functional group with 2 to 6 carbon atoms, and a hydrophilic moiety; at least one non-fluorinated surfactant; a combination of solvents; a combination of cleaning agents; and water.

The present disclosure relates to a water-soluble film with polyvinyl alcohol having a polymerization degree of 100 to 3,000 and a polyhydric alcohol plasticizer.

A detergent composition may include xanthan lyase and endoglucanase variants with improved stability. Methods for use of said compositions are also disclosed.

A detergent or cleaning agent, in particular a cleaning agent for hard surfaces, having at least two phases which are different from each other. The detergent or cleaning agent includes at least one first phase and at least one second phase that is different, with the at least one first phase being solid and the at least one second phase having at least one polymer and at least one polyvalent alcohol.

A liquid composition, including component (a): at least one peptide aldehyde, and component (b): at least two organic solvents, where one organic solvent is 1,2-propane diol and at least one further organic solvent is selected from the group consisting of diols other than 1,2-propane diol in a weight ratio of 1,2-propane diol: at least one diol other than 1,2-propane diol of 25:1 to 1:4.
