A stable and safe skin antiseptic solution comprises chlorhexidine, pharmaceutically acceptable salts of chlorhexidine (e.g. chlorhexidine digluconate), or a mixture thereof, dimethyl lauramide/myristamide, and water. Said solution is essentially free of coconut oil diethanolamine concentrate (“cocamide DEA”), a known carcinogen. The active antiseptic ingredient, chlorhexidine (or its salts), is a di(4-chlorophenyldiguanido) compound. The functions of dimethyl lauramide/myristamide in said solution include, but not limited to, an aesthetics enhancer, a foam stabilizer, a solubilizer, and a fragrance. Said solution is specifically formulated to be safe with a reduced risk of carcinogenicity, and be capable of producing a stable and long lasting foam. The active antiseptic agent is evenly distributed in said solution and in said foam, respectively.

Acidic viscoelastic cleaning compositions are disclosed which use non polymer thickening agents. According to the invention, cleaning compositions have been developed using viscoelastic surfactants in acidic cleaning formulations. These provide the dual benefit of thickening as well as an additional cleaning, thereby improving performance. Applicants have also identified several pseudo linking agents which when, used with viscoelastic surfactants provide enhanced viscoelasticity and cleaning.

The present invention relates to a concentrate composition and its use solution for disinfecting and cleaning hard surfaces. The concentrate composition and the use solution comprise an alkylamidopropyl betaine, amphoteric surfactants and biocidal active substances at a moderately alkaline pH. The inventive composition is suitable for disinfecting and cleaning hard surfaces, in particular hard surfaces in contact with food products, such as surfaces found in food processing, manual warewashing, food services and health care industries. Methods of applying and making such concentrate composition and use solution are also provided.

A rheofluidifying surfactant composition structured into planar lamellar phases includes: a) at least one anionic surfactant and b) at least one compound selected from among amphoteric surfactants and non-ionic surfactants, in which the total active material of said surfactants is between 35 and 60% by weight relative to the total weight of said composition, in which the ratio of anionic surfactant is between 0.3 and 0.9, the ratio of amphoteric surfactant is between 0.0 and 0.7 and the ratio of non-ionic surfactant is between 0.0 and 0.7, said ratio being the ratio between the weight percentage of active material of said surfactant in said composition and the weight percentage of total active material of said surfactants in said composition, the pH of the composition being between 4 and 8, said at least one anionic surfactant being selected from the group comprising alkyl sulfates, alkyl ether sulfates, sulfonates, derivatives of phosphoric acid, phosphates and alkyl phosphates, isethionates, taurates, sulfoccinates, alkyl sulfoacetates, anionic derivatives of proteins of plant origin, amino acids and amino acid derivatives, polypeptides, carboxylic acids and the salts of same, salts of fatty acids from saponification, lactic acid derivatives and alkyl polyglucoside derivatives, and said composition being free of sodium chloride other than that which may be provided by the surfactants.

A liquid hand dishwashing cleaning composition having from 15% to 40% by weight of the composition of a surfactant system. The surfactant system has an anionic surfactant and from 5% to 18.4% of a nonionic surfactant package by weight of the composition. The weight ratio of the nonionic surfactant package to the anionic surfactant ranges from 1:1 to 3:1. The nonionic surfactant has a mixture of a first nonionic surfactant and a second nonionic surfactant. The first nonionic surfactant includes an alkyl polyglucoside surfactant. The surfactant system further includes a co-surfactant. The weight ratio of the anionic surfactant to the co-surfactant ranges from 1:1 to 8:1. The composition is free of fatty acid or salts thereof.

A solid particulate composition including, based on the total weight of the composition, a) 20 to 95 wt. % of at least one water-soluble carrier material selected from hydrous salts of which the water vapor partial pressure corresponds, at a specific temperature in the range from 30 to 100° C., to the H.sub.2O partial pressure of the saturated solution of salt; b) 0.1 to 20 wt. % fragrance; and c) 0.1 to 30 wt. % of at least one textile-care compound. The invention further relates to the use and a method for the preparation of a solid particulate composition.
