A novel binder and/or disintegrant for obtaining a compressed solid composition for non-oral use, the binder and/or disintegrant being fermented molasses, a process for preparing the compressed solid composition and also a binding and/or disintegrating composition, which includes at least fermented molasses. The fermented molasses advantageously makes it possible to replace synthetic binders conventionally used in compressed solid compositions, while also being able to act as a disintegrant on contact with a liquid, especially water. Thus, a novel way is proposed for utilizing a product which was hitherto solely used in the field of agriculture and livestock farming.

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 of a branched polyester; and an optional deposition aid; wherein each of the particles can have a mass from about 1 mg to about 1 g.

A low-water composition comprising a solid dissolvable composition domain having a crystallizing agent and a PEGC domain.

A low-water composition comprising a solid dissolvable composition domain having a crystallizing agent and a PEGC domain.

The present invention refers to a composition comprising two or more compounds of the general formula (I). a dry or liquid formulation comprising said composition as well as the use of said composition as surfactant or as anti-greying agent in a laundry process.

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 of a branched polyester; and an optional deposition aid; wherein each of the particles can have a mass from about 1 mg to about 1 g.

Described are fabric care pellets comprising an amphiphilic polymer, preferably an ethylene acrylic acid copolymer, a surfactant, and a filler, wherein the pellet contains 30 wt % to 90 wt % amphiphilic polymer, preferably ethylene acrylic acid copolymer, and methods of making and using the same.

A process for making a neutral or acidic automatic dishwashing unit-dose product including the step of making a powder having a density greater than 1000 Kg/m3 and wherein the product has a volume of from about 5 to about 25 ml.

Disclosed are fine-particulate powders containing particles with at least 80% by weight of a manganese complex with nitrogen-containing ligands, wherein one or more of the ligands are macrocyclic ligands, wherein at least 70% by weight of the particles have particle sizes in the range from 1 m to 50 m, at most 15% by weight of the particles have particle sizes >50 m and at most 15% by weight of the particles have particle sizes <1 m, wherein the percentages refer to the total amount of the particles.

These powders can be used as bleaching catalysts in washing and cleaning agents and display an improved activity and at the same time these are toxicologically non-hazardous during manufacturing and use.

The present invention is directed to visually contrasting aesthetic particles having increased water solubility, particularly useful for combination with granular laundry detergent composition.
