Fabric care compositions comprising bi-modal water continuous emulsions are disclosed. In particular, the fabric care compositions comprise a bi-modal water continuous emulsion (E) comprising at least 70 weight percent of: a first dispersed phase containing a hydrophobic oil, wherein the hydrophobic oil is provided as a non-emulsified hydrophobic oil, and a second dispersed phase containing a silicone, wherein the silicone is provided from a water continuous silicone emulsion containing at least one surfactant. The fabric care compositions further comprise at least one fabric care ingredient (F). Optionally, the fabric care ingredient (F) is in an acceptable medium. Preparation methods and uses of the fabric care compositions are also disclosed.

The present invention relates generally to surfactant and detergent compositions and, more specifically, to surfactant and detergent compositions containing an ethoxylated diol.

The present invention relates generally to compositions containing anionic surfactant and solvent, more specifically, to compositions containing anionic surfactant and a solvent comprising butanediol.

The present invention relates generally to compositions containing an anionic surfactant selected from the group consisting of alkyl sulfates, alkoxylated alkyl sulfates, and mixtures thereof, and a solvent, particularly a solvent comprising one or more diols.

A viscoelastic, solid surfactant composition, containing, (i) a total amount of 0.1 to 70 wt % of at least one surfactant, (ii) a total amount of more than 1 wt % of at least one benzylidene alditol compound of formula (I), and (iii) water, is a readily soluble, aesthetically pleasing and storage-stable form of a solid composition for providing surfactant-containing liquors.

The disclosure is directed to cleaning compositions, methods of making the cleaning compositions, and methods of using the cleaning compositions. The cleaning compositions comprise an enzyme composition, a nonionic surfactant, and a quaternary amine. Preferably, the enzyme compositions included in the cleaning compositions comprise a cellulase, an AA9 polypeptide having cellulolytic enhancing activity, a hemicellulase, an esterase, an expansin, a laccase, a ligninolytic enzyme, a pectinase, a peroxidase, a protease, a swollenin, or a combination or mixture thereof. The compositions are useful for degradation of bacterial cellulose.

The invention provides a process for removing organic constituents from a gas stream in a two-stage scrubbing operation, in which scrubbing is performed firstly with an alcoholic scrubbing medium and then with an aqueous scrubbing medium. The laden scrubbing media obtained can be used in certain (chemical) processes.

The present invention relates to a composition and a method for delaying laundry. The present invention provides a fabric treatment composition comprising: a solvent system in combination with surfactants, a hydrotrope, and a sequestrant, wherein the composition has a pH ranging from 2.5 to 5.0. The solvent system comprises a glycol ether; a diol; and a fatty acid ester. The composition of the present invention provides cleaning and anti-microbial benefits when used on a substrate.

Treatment compositions, such as fabric care or dish care compositions, that include poly alpha-1,6-glucan ether compounds, which include poly alpha-1,6-glucans substituted with at least one positively charged organic group, the compounds being characterized by, for example, a degree of substitution of about 0.001 to about 3.0, and optionally, where about 3% or more of the backbone glucose monomer units have branches via alpha-1,2- and/or alpha-1,3-glycosidic linkages.
