Dosage elements to be consumed in use in a ware washing machine are made by (a) forming a main container part within a cavity of a mould; (b) providing the main container part with a first substance; (c) adhering a second substance to the underside of a part which is to form a lid of the dosage element; and (d) sealing the lid-forming part to the main container part so as to close the main container part and enclose the first and second substances within it; wherein the second substance covers at least 5% of the free area of the lid-forming part.

A method of cleaning ware in a domestic dishwasher using a program having a main wash and a rinse cycle, the method having the step of delivering a dose of a cleaning composition wherein the delivery of the cleaning composition is split between the main wash and the rinse.

A method of cleaning dishware in a domestic dishwasher using a program having a cleaning cycle and a rinse cycle, the method includes the steps of placing the dishware in the dishwasher; delivering a cleaning composition into the cleaning cycle to form a wash liquor and subjecting the dishware to the wash liquor; and delivering a rinse composition to form a rinse liquor, the composition includes an amphiphilic graft polymer based on water-soluble polyalkylene oxides as a graft base and side chains formed by polymerization of a vinyl ester component, wherein said amphiphilic graft polymer is water-soluble or water-dispersible and has a weight average molar mass (Mw) of from about 3,000 to about 100,000 and subjecting the dishware to the rinse liquor.

An aqueous composition, a sprayable composition containing the aqueous composition, and a method of making the aqueous composition are provided. The aqueous composition includes an aqueous phase and liquid benefit agent droplets discontinuously dispersed throughout the aqueous phase. The aqueous phase has a structurant system including a first polysaccharide and a second polysaccharide that is different from the first polysaccharide. The aqueous phase comprises less than 10,000 ppm surfactant. The aqueous composition exhibits a yield stress as determined by the RHEOLOGY TEST METHOD.

Films including a water-soluble layer and a vapor-deposited organic coating are disclosed. The films can optionally further include a vapor-deposited inorganic layer. The films exhibit enhanced barrier properties.

A composition is provided for a disinfectant fogger and cleaner for interior surfaces of confined spaces. The composition is water based and has an aqueous disinfectant containing quaternary ammonium compounds as active disinfecting ingredients, non-ionic surfactants, and a malodor absorbing agent. The composition provides a disinfectant for hard-nonporous and soft surfaces and allows for immediate occupancy and contact with a cleaned interior surface. The composition may be packaged as a ready-to-use disinfectant spray in an aerosol container with an on/off lockable discharge actuator as fine mist droplets that are dispersed onto the target surfaces for treatment.

A cleaning chemical liquid supply device includes: first and second mixers respectively mixing first chemical liquid with dilution water and respectively supplying to first and second nozzles respectively supplying the first chemical liquid adjusted to desired flow rates and concentrations to a first position and a second, different position of the substrate in the cleaning device; a first dilution water control box controlling flow rates of the dilution water supplied to the first and second mixers; third and fourth mixers respectively mixing second, different chemical liquid with the dilution water and respectively supplying to third and fourth nozzles for respectively supplying the second chemical liquid adjusted to desired flow rates and concentrations to a third position and a fourth, different position of the substrate in the cleaning device; and a second dilution water control box controlling flow rates of the dilution water supplied to the third and fourth mixers.

The present invention relates to a cleaning or soap product, in particular personal care product, in particular hand washing soap, comprising a first chemical and/or mechanical mechanism for generating a first color transition of the cleaning or soap product, and a second chemical and/or mechanical mechanism for generating a second color transition. Numerous embodiments and chemical-technical variants of the invention are disclosed.

Films including a water-soluble layer and a vapor-deposited organic coating are disclosed. The films can optionally further include a vapor-deposited inorganic layer. The films exhibit enhanced barrier properties.

The invention is a detergent solution for cleaning a receptacle for milk or liquid milk-derived products, the detergent solution comprising water, one or more types of surfactant and an odour absorbing compound. The surfactants are provided to dissolve greasy milk-based residues from the receptacle and the odour absorbing compound is provided to neutralise odours produced by any remaining milk-based residues not removed by the surfactants. The detergent solution is water-based so that it can be rinsed off easily in a sink in the home. The detergent solution is particularly suited to plastic receptacles because plastic is more prone to accumulating mal-odour producing bacteria. This is because a plastic surface is more porous than glass so it is more difficult to remove greasy residues from a plastic surface and therefore grease can build up in the pores, out of the reach of surfactants, and provide a place for odour-producing bacteria to grow. An odour absorbing compound does not remove the residue but can neutralise the odours from the residue. The invention also discloses a method for dispensing a detergent solution comprising at least one surfactant, the method comprising ejecting detergent solution from a reservoir in the form of a spray, wherein the surfactant is present in the detergent solution in an amount of from 3% to 15% by weight of the detergent solution. The invention discloses also a method of cleaning a receptacle for milk, or liquid milk-derived products, the method comprising: spraying a detergent solution comprising at least one surfactant onto the receptacle, wherein the surfactant is present in the detergent solution in an amount of from 3% to 15% by weight of the detergent solution.
