A composition for use in scent booster beads comprises a dispersant, a first solubility agent, a fragrance, and a second solubility agent, all of these ingredients being present in varied amounts by weight of the composition. The scent booster composition may at its essence comprise a dispersant and a fragrance. The composition may further comprise one or more solubility agents, dyes and/or color agents. The dispersant used may be a compound other than polyethylene glycol (PEG).

A perfume particle composition comprising: at least 10 wt. % of a carrier material which comprises at least one ethoxylate unit derived from biomass; and perfume ingredients.

Process for making a modified granule or powder comprising an alkali metal salt of an aminocarboxylate complexing agent (A), said process comprising the steps of

(a) providing a granule or powder comprising an alkali metal salt of an aminocarboxylate complexing agent (A),
(b) treating said granule or powder with the respective aminocarboxylate complexing agent (A) in which at least one amino group or carboxyl group per molecule is present in the acid form, in the presence or absence of water,
(c) performing a heat treatment at a temperature in the range of from 80 to 150 C.

The invention relates to a process for preparing soap free, sulphate free and grit free solid cleansing composition. The composition has pH resembling to skin pH which comprises non-soap, non-sulphate anionic surfactants and hydrogenated triglyceride oil/s, and optionally, skin benefit agents and/or hair benefit agents. This is accomplished by a unique short and cost-effective process without using any emulsifier or plasticizer. The process entails synthesizing sodium O-acyl isethionates by reacting fatty acid chloride with dry sodium methyl isethionate and sodium isethionate in a sequential manner followed by addition of hydrogenated triglyceride oil. The hot homogeneous paste of sodium O-acyl isethionates and vegetable oils is then flaked. The flakes are then kneaded in a sigma blender where other optional ingredients are mixed. The mass thus obtained is then further refined on a triple roll mill and plodded/extruded into billets or noodles.

The invention relates to solidification of liquid nonionic surfactants with a binder, carrier, or both binder and carrier to form a solidified surfactant composition. In particular, the invention relates to solidification of liquid nonionic surfactants utilizing drying device(s), wherein the feed composition contains at least one liquid nonionic surfactant and the binder, carrier, or binder and carrier to form a solidified surfactant composition. The solidified surfactant compositions can be useful in various cleaning compositions.

The present application relates to encapsulated, preformed peracids and products comprising such encapsulates, as well as processes for making and using such encapsulates and products comprising such encapsulates. Such products deliver bleaching that results in superior whiteness and stain removal without the stability issues that are normally associated with certain bleaching systems.

A novel binder and/or disintegrant for obtaining a compressed solid composition for non-oral use, the binder and/or disintegrant being fermented molasses, a process for preparing the compressed solid composition and also a binding and/or disintegrating composition, which includes at least fermented molasses. The fermented molasses advantageously makes it possible to replace synthetic binders conventionally used in compressed solid compositions, while also being able to act as a disintegrant on contact with a liquid, especially water. Thus, a novel way is proposed for utilizing a product which was hitherto solely used in the field of agriculture and livestock farming.

The present invention relates to a solid block comprising a solidified material, characterized in that the solid block comprises one or more domains of prismatic or cylindrical shape extending between two parallel surfaces of the solid block from one surface to the other, wherein the solidified powder inside the one or more domains and the solidified powder outside the one or more domains each comprises one or more chemical substances, and wherein the chemical composition of the solidified powder inside the one or more domains is different from the chemical composition of the solidified powder outside the one or more domains. The present invention further relates to methods for producing such solid block. The present invention also relates to the use of such solid block as detergent in warewashing applications.

The present invention relates to the field of perfumed particles in particular for solid consumer product formulations such as textile care products. More specifically, the present invention relates to a composition comprising or consisting of at least one pastille, wherein said pastille comprises or consists of at least one microcapsule as well as a polymer matrix embedding said at least one microcapsule as well as to a composition additionally comprising or consisting of at least one adhesion agent in said matrix. Moreover, the present invention relates to a process for the preparation of a corresponding composition and its use for the preparation of consumer products as well as consumer products as such comprising or consisting of the composition.

A detergent preparation (3), such as more particularly a laundry detergent preparation, which is water-soluble and which includes at least one first and one second surfactant (16, 17), the second surfactant (17) having a lower melting temperature than the first surfactant (16) and the melting temperature of the detergent preparation (3) being at least 20 C., preferably at least 40 C., below the melting temperature of the first surfactant (16).
