Suggested is a rim block with improved scent performance, comprising or consisting of: (a) a solid rim block base, (b) at least one non-encapsulated perfume oil, and (c) at least one perfume oil same or different from component (b) encapsulated in a maltodextrin matrix.

A solid cleaning composition, the composition including: one or more anionic surfactants, wherein the one or more anionic surfactants constitute 40 wt. % to 90 wt. % of the composition; a cationic biocide, wherein the cationic biocide constitute 0.0001 wt. % to 2 wt. % of the composition; and one or more humectants; wherein the one or more humectants constitute 0.03 wt. % to 35 wt. % of the compositions, the cationic biocide retaining its biocidal activity as demonstrated by a reduction of at least 1.0 log 10 in a standard hand wash test.

The application relates to a shaped detergent product comprising 10-100 wt. % of a solid amorphous phase and 0-90 wt. % of one or more other solid phases, wherein the solid amorphous phase comprises 25-88 wt. % free acid equivalent of aminopolycarboxylate, 10-60 wt. % free acid equivalent of an acid, wherein the acid is not an aminopolycarboxylate, 2-30 wt. % water, and wherein the shaped detergent product contains at least 0.5 wt. % surfactant.

The present disclosure pertains to surfactants for use in the formulation of detergents, foaming agents, emulsifiers, and degreasers. Some aspects of the invention include formulations suitable for cleaning and/or condition fabrics including upholstery. Some formulations are suitable for in home or commercial dry cleaning. Some of the formulations may be suitable for cleaning hard surfaces including plastic surfaces.

A porous dissolvable solid can include an isethionate surfactant; a non-sulfate anionic surfactant; and an amphoteric surfactant, a zwitterionic surfactant, or a combination thereof.

The present invention relates to a soap bar composition. It more particularly relates to a soap bar composition which comprises low amount of soap where high amount of water can be incorporated. This is achieved by including a selective polymer therein. The soap bars of the invention are easy to extrude and stamp.

The invention relates to stable, anhydrous concentrated cleanser formulations.

A shaped detergent product comprising 10 to 100 wt. % of a first solid phase and 0 to 90 wt. % of one or more other phases, wherein the first solid phase comprises: a) non-crystalline chiral aminopolycarboxylate; b) non-crystalline organic acid other than component a); c) at most 30 wt. % water; d) at most 50 wt. % of non-crystalline water-soluble component other than component a) or component b); e) at most 20 wt. % of homogeneously dispersed crystalline material; wherein the combination of the components a), b) and c) is present in the first solid phase in a concentration of at least 35 wt. % of the total weight of the solid phase; and wherein components a), b) and c) are present in the solid phase in a ratio of from 25 to 88 parts by weight of free acid equivalent of component a): from 10 to 60 parts by weight of free acid equivalent of component b): from 2 to 30 parts by weight of component c); and wherein the shaped detergent product comprises at least 0.5 wt. % surfactant.

Techniques are disclosed for preventing formation of dags on cattle and other commercially produced animals. The surface of the animal, such as the skin, hide, hair, wool or other covering of the animal, is treated with a low-energy, non-sticking hydrophobic coating. The coating may be made from long-chain hydrocarbons, such as stearates, typically with a terminal metal carboxylate group comprising a variety of low-valence metals, e.g., mono or divalent metals, such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium and zinc. The coating makes it difficult for polar substances, such as water, mud, dirt, waste, soil, manure and feed, collectively termed dag, to adhere to the surface of the animal.
