The invention includes ware detergent compositions which prevent buildup of precipitates and also surprisingly provides significant metal protection of items exposed to alkaline detergent composition. According to the invention alkaline ware detergents may include an effective amount of amino carboxylate. Surprisingly, detergents which included amino carboxylate also provided significant metal protection against corrosion, even when traditional corrosion inhibiting components are reduced.

A solid liquid cleansing composition and methods of preparing the same are disclosed. The solid cleansing composition may include a soap and an ionic liquid. The soap may be a sodium soap, an ammonium soap, a potassium soap, a magnesium soap, a calcium soap, or a combination thereof. The ionic liquid may include a base, taurine, and/or water.

A composition including a plurality of particles, the particles including: about 25% to about 94% by weight a water soluble carrier; about 5% to about 45% by weight a quaternary ammonium compound formed from a parent fatty acid compound having an Iodine Value from about 18 to about 60; and about 0.5% to about 10% by weight a cationic polymer; wherein each of the particles has a mass from about 1 mg to about 1 g.

A composition including a plurality of particles, the particles including: about 25% to about 94% by weight a water soluble carrier; about 5% to about 45% by weight a quaternary ammonium compound; and about 0.5% to about 10% by weight a cationic polymer; wherein each of the particles has a mass from about 1 mg to about 1 g; and wherein the composition has a viscosity from about 1 Pa-s to about 10 Pa-s at 65 C.

A method useful for inhibiting moisture loss from skin comprises the step of administering a composition to a subject's skin. The composition comprises a first humectant and a second humectant different from the first humectant. The humectants are useful for increasing moisture content of the subject's skin, specifically the subject's epidermis. The first humectant may comprise a conventional humectant, e.g. glycerol. The second humectant generally comprises certain types of honey. The honey is capable of inhibiting moisture loss from the subject's epidermis and/or moisture loss from the first humectant when the subject is exposed to dry air conditions, e.g. wintertime air having a relative humidity of about 50% or less. Specifically, the second humectant is useful for mitigating adverse effects of the first humectant under certain conditions. Examples of suitable honeys generally include those comprising the flavanone hesperidin, such as orange blossom honey, buckwheat (blossom) honey, or a combination thereof.

The present invention relates to the process to manufacture a soap bar composition containing 10-40 wt % lauric acid soap, based on the weight of the fatty acid soap, the bar comprising glycerol and free fatty acids.

The present disclosure provides a detergent composition comprising soda ash, an acid, a fatty alcohol ethoxylate, an anionic surfactant, a detergent polymer, and a binder selected from a sugar, a starch, a polyol, and any combination thereof, wherein the composition is in the form of a powder. The composition can further comprise additional components, such as a bleaching agent, a bleach activator, and at least one enzyme. The detergent composition can be provided in the form of a compressed shape, such as a tablet.

A stabilized solid bleaching agent which has good solubility in water without undergoing the occurrence of foaming and without generating residues has been demanded. The present invention provides a stabilized solid-bleaching-agent-containing material having a coating layer formed therein, wherein the coating layer contains at least one component selected from the group consisting of an alkali metal salt of an aromatic carboxylic acid, an alkali metal salt of a non-cyclic dicarboxylic acid, an alkali metal salt of a non-cyclic monocarboxylic acid having 1 to 7 carbon atoms and mixtures thereof.

A dosage element to be consumed in use in a ware washing machine, the dosage element including a container, whereby the container encloses a non-consolidated particulate composition and a gel in direct contact with one another.

The invention includes a solid rinse aid that is particularly designed for extrusion solid formation and which is effective for creating spotless surfaces after rinsing. According to the invention, application has identified the critical combination of solid surfactants, coupling agents, hydrotrope, and hardening agents that is acceptable in the extrusion process to create a solid. The hydrotrope includes one or more short-chain alkylbenzene and/or alkyl naphthalene sulfonates. The composition hardens quickly but not so quick as to negatively impact the extrusion process. The compositions may also be used to form pressed or cast solids.
