The present invention provides granules containing one or more bleaching catalysts selected from the group of manganese salts or manganese complexes and at least one binder selected from the group of acid organic compounds coated with 0.1 to 3% by weight, referring to the total amount of the granules, with a polyvinyl alcohol-containing coating, wherein the coating comprises at least 80% of polyvinyl alcohol or mixtures thereof, in relation to the total weight of the coating.

Described are co-granules coated with cellulose ether and containing b1) cyclic sulfonimine, b2) bleach activator selected from the group consisting of tetraacetylethylenediamine, decanoyloxybenzoic acid or mixtures thereof, and b3) cellulose ether as binder.

These co-granules can be produced by wet granulation and are very storage-stable.

The co-granules can be used in detergents and cleaning agents, which contain (a) bleaching agent selected from the group consisting of perborate, percarbonate or mixtures thereof, and (b) the co-granules coated with cellulose ether.

These detergents and cleaning agents contain highly active bleach activators and bleach catalysts and are characterized by high storage stability. The combination of components b1) and b2) and peroxygen compound a) leads to a pronounced disinfection effect even at low temperatures.

The detergents and cleaning agents can be used even at low temperatures and show a good washing performance.

The present invention relates to co-granules comprising an enzyme and a bleach catalyst and to their use in bleach-containing granular automatic dishwash (ADW) detergents.

A releasable encapsulation composition is described. The composition comprises a plurality of capsules, each capsule comprising an amphiphilic material encapsulating a substance, such as an active ingredient. The substance is releasable from encapsulation by a change in the amphiphilic material triggered by a change in the environment around the capsule.

Solid, concentrated, multi-use, stabilized peroxygen bleach compositions are disclosed. The solid compositions employ a C6-C18 fatty acid binding system for improving shelf stability of an activated bleach composition containing a peroxygen source and a bleach activating agent. Methods of formulating and methods of use are further provided.

A neutral or acidic automatic dishwashing detergent composition including a pH regulator system and a cleaning agent selected from the group consisting of cleaning surfactants, soil suspending polymers and mixtures thereof wherein the weight ratio of the pH regulator system to the cleaning agent is from 3:1 to 1:1 system and wherein the detergent composition includes from 0.01% to 5% by weight of the composition of a perfume.

A neutral or acidic automatic dishwashing detergent composition including inorganic bleach, enzymes and a cleaning agent selected from the group consisting of cleaning surfactants, soil suspending polymers and mixtures thereof and from 0.01% to 5% by weight of the composition of a perfume and wherein the composition has a cleaning index of at least 60 and a care index of at least 4 as defined herein.

A detergent additive comprising an active, the active comprising one or both of tetraacetylethylenediamine or triacetylethylenediamine; and the reaction product of a compound that functions as a Michael donor and a compound that functions as a Michael acceptor; wherein, the compound that functions as a Michael donor is selected from the group consisting of acetoacetate esters, cyanoacetate esters and malonic acid esters; the compound that functions as a Michael acceptor is a multifunctional acrylate; and the weight percent of the tetraacetylethylenediamine in the detergent additive is 10 to 90 percent.

A detergent additive comprising an active comprising one or both of tetraacetylethylenediamine, triacetylethylenediamine; and an interpolymer complex, the interpolymer complex comprising both a proton-accepting-(co)polymer and a proton-donating (co)polymer.
