An improved cleaning composition in block form is described. The composition addresses the consumer issues of having a clear product that remains clear through the life of the product and also has favorable handling properties such as a high melting point and increased hardness. The improvements are the result of three essential ingredients of particular block copolymer nonionic surfactants, alkanecarboxylic salts, and particular solvents at restricted proportions in the overall composition that are molded into a cleaning composition in block form that exhibits a high melting point, hardness and high optical transmittance.

Industrial 2-in-1 cleaning compositions providing both detergency and rinseability in a single cleaning composition comprising a polymer are disclosed. Alkali metal carbonate-based cleaning compositions and methods of both making and using the same provide user-friendly, solid, detergent compositions without the need for using a separate rinse aid composition. The compositions and methods are particularly well suited for use in industrial cleaning using alkali metal carbonate compositions that beneficially provide cleaning and rinseability in the rinse cycle.

The invention provides contact lens storage, cleaning and treatment compositions comprising nonionic surfactants. The invention further provides methods for treating enhancing contact lens wear time and comfort, reducing contact lens deposits and treating dry eye via contact lenses.

The need for a container and detergent composition which exhibit good cleaning, including on greasy soils, and good surface shine, while also maintaining spray visibility on the treated hard surface, is met by formulating an aqueous detergent composition using a low level of surfactant system, an aminoalcohol solvent, and a glycol ether solvent, at the specified ratios.

Disclosed is a liquid mixture (preferably an oil-in-water emulsion) for cleaning spilled paint, varnish, dye and/or surface coating, and a cleaning method comprising a step of applying said mixture to a fresh stain left by paint, varnish, surface coating and/or dye.

Dental appliance cleansing composition comprising (a) fatty acid isopropyl ester, (b) polyoxyethylene sorbitan ester, (c) second sorbitan ester, wherein the cleansing composition does not contain methanol, ethanol or isopropyl alcohol. Dental appliance cleansing wipe impregnated with the composition. Use of the dental appliance cleansing composition or wipe for cleaning dental appliances and dentures.
