A process for making a particle, the particle includes: a) a nitrogen-containing cleaning-active in the form of a salt wherein the salt has a pH in 1% weight aqueous solution measured at 25° C. greater than 9; and b) a malodour-reducing agent including an acid group wherein the process includes the step of adding the malodour-reducing agent to the nitrogen-containing cleaning-active wherein the malodour-reducing agent is added in the absence of water.

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.

A detergent or cleaning agent, in particular a cleaning agent for hard surfaces, having at least two phases which are different from each other. The detergent or cleaning agent includes at least one first phase and at least one second phase that is different, with the at least one first phase being solid and the at least one second phase having at least one polymer and at least one polyvalent alcohol.

The present invention relates to the use of natural polymers of the family of the proteins not exhibiting enzymatic activity as sacrificial materials of 3D fused deposition modeling.

A bleach catalyst suitable for use in automatic dishwashing comprising a mixed metal oxide.

The present invention is in the field of machine dishwashing compositions. More particularly, it relates to machine dishwashing compositions comprising a phosphonate and polycarboxylate comprising acrylic acid monomers. The invention also relates to a method of washing kitchenware in a machine dishwasher with a machine dishwashing composition comprising a phosphonate and a polycarboxylate comprising acrylic acid monomers and a process for making said composition.

The present invention relates to a solid composition comprising a matrix and one or more actives, said matrix comprising steramide or poly(vinyl alcohol) having a melting point higher than 150° C. It also relates to a cage and to a product comprising said solid composition and said cage, wherein said solid composition is contained in said cage. It further relates to a product comprising said solid composition and a porous solid support, wherein said solid composition is attached to said porous solid support. It further relates to a method for the controlled release of one or more actives in an automatic washing operation by providing said solid composition or any of the products to the machine in which said automatic washing operation is performed.

An alkaline detergent is described which includes the use of a copolymer in combination with an alkali metal hydroxide. The detergent maintains cleaning functions and also prevents hard water scaling, for example at application temperatures of between 145-180 degrees Fahrenheit and with a pH of 9.5 to about 13.

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.
