Laundry detergent compositions, water-soluble unit dose detergent products and methods of making each, are described. The laundry detergent compositions include renewable components, can be biodegradable, have a low carbon footprint and free of materials with a potential hazard concern, while still providing consumer acceptable performance. Packaging containing such laundry detergent compositions or water-soluble unit dose detergent products are also described.

A surface treating formulation with an organic solvent and a reduced amount of silicone fluid. In examples, the organic solvent may be a gas-to-liquid solvent and may include a synthetic paraffinic hydrocarbon. The silicone fluid may include at least a silicone having a viscosity of at least 1000 cSt. Examples of the formulation may include a rheology modifier, one or more surfactant, a pH adjusting agent, a preservative, and an inorganic solvent, such as water. The formulation may optionally include additional additives. In examples, a surface may be treated by spraying or wiping thereon the surface treating formulation.

A natural cleaning product which does not contain any harsh chemicals or toxins. Specifically, the cleaning product is based on borax and yucca plant products. A composition for an organic cleaning product comprises distilled water; borax; distilled white vinegar; yucca root soap; and optionally, lavender essential oil, peppermint essential oil; and eucalyptus. Also disclosed is a process for the production of yucca root soap which is used in producing the organic cleaning product of the invention.

Composition comprising mixtures of glucam ides, process for their preparation and their use

Disclosed are compositions comprising a) 20 to 84% by weight of specific N-hydrocarbon-N-acylglucamide blend, b) 15 to 50% by weight of water, and c) 1 to 30% by weight of one or more other additives.

The compositions may be present, at a temperature of 20 C., in the form of a gel or in the form of a paste, and furthermore e.g. in the form of a monodose product.

The compositions are suitable for cleaning, scenting, conditioning or disinfection purposes, preferably in home or personal care applications.

A method of washing in an automatic laundry machine having a wash tank, including the following steps: delivering a first composition comprising a bleach composition to the tank in a first step; delivering a second composition comprising at least one surfactant composition to the tank in a second step; delivering a third composition comprising at least one enzyme to the tank in a third step; wherein water is added to the wash tank at the same time or after the first step but prior to the third step; the temperature of the water in the wash tank is elevated before, during or after the first step and/or the second step; and the temperature of the water in the wash tank is subsequently reduced before the third step.

A process for forming a descaling composition has the steps of macerating a bone meal with a dimethylamine solution, digesting the macerated bone meal with hydrochloric acid, neutralizing the digested bone meal with calcium oxide, treating the neutralized bone meal with sulfuric acid, and applying a refluxing treatment with dimethylamine and hydrazine hydrate. The process further includes removing the macerated bone meal solids from the dimethylamine solution and transferring the removed solids to an extraction tower prior to the step of digesting. The hydrochloric acid is circulated through the macerated bone meal. The treated bone meal and the sulfuric acid is filtered so as to produce a liquid phase and a solids phase. The liquid phase contains a phosphate amine. The dimethylamine and hydrazine hydrate are added to the liquid phase.

The need for an acidic hard surface cleaning composition which provides further improvements in the maintenance of surface shine, especially on inclined hard surfaces, while also using less thickener is met by formulating the acidic hard surface cleaning composition using a combination of a surface modification polymer and sulfonate hydrotrope.

Suggested are polyurea microcapsules obtainable or obtained by reacting di- and/or polyisocyanates and guanidine carbonate in the presence of chemically modified biopolymer colloidal protection agents. The capsules can be loaded for example with fragrances and show high resistance against agglomeration in unstructured (viscosity 10-300 cps), anionic surfactant based liquid products.

The present invention relates to a liquid DATEM composition comprising DATEM rich in DATEM I and/to DATEM II, and a diluent selected from the group consisting of water, glycerol and mixtures thereof. The invention is also related to a process for preparing the composition and the use thereof.

A fluid aqueous composition for cleaning an electric personal care apparatus including at least one alkyl benzene sulfonate and at least two non-ionic surfactants. The alkyl benzene sulfonate may be sodium alkyl benzene sulfonate. The non-ionic surfactants may be a fatty alcohol polyalkylene glycol ether and a fatty alcohol polyglycol ether.
