Manganese bleach catalyst granules for use in dishwash detergents
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.
Product for cleaning surfaces
A product for cleaning a surface includes a combination of a first composition with a second composition. The first composition includes hydrogen peroxide and makes up 94-99.5% of the combination by weight. The second composition includes at least one of a silicate, a carbonate, a bicarbonate and a percarbonate and makes up 0.5-6% of the combination by weight. The first composition and the second composition are stored in separate vessels until combined to form the combination. The combination is applied to the surface after mixing.
Enhanced catalyst stability for alkaline detergent formulations
Stabilized catalyst detergent compositions are provided in solid alkaline detergent formulations are disclosed. The compositions are suitable for use with additional detergent and/or bleaching compositions while providing stabilized catalysts within an encapsulated cellulose derivative coating. Methods of use for cleaning are disclosed.
Process for making a granule
Process for making a powder or granule containing (A) at least one chelating agent selected from alkali metal salts of methyl glycine diacetic acid (MGDA) and of iminodisuccinic acid (IDS), (B) at least one compound of general formula (I a) or (I b) ##STR00001## wherein A.sup.1 is selected from (CH.sub.2).sub.a wherein the variable a is in the range of from 4 to 20, e is selected from zero and 1, and R.sup.1 being the same or different and selected from OC.sub.1-C.sub.10-alkyl and C.sub.1-C.sub.10-alkyl, and, optionally, (C) at least one homo- or copolymer of (meth)acrylic acid, partially or fully neutralized with alkali, said process comprising the steps of (a) providing an aqueous solution or slurry containing chelating agent (A) and said compound (B) and, if applicable, (co)polymer (C), with a pH value in the range of from 10 to 12, (b) removing most of said water by spray drying or spray granulation.
