Treatment compositions for use in laundry capable of providing sanitization through the wash e.g., for use with a detergent, where the compositions include an inorganic zinc salt potentiated by a phenolic solvent, to provide sanitization. The compositions can include an inorganic zinc salt, and a phenolic solvent, e.g., at an acidic pH (e.g., 2 to 5, or 3.5 to 4.5). The composition can include an anionic surfactant (e.g., alkyl sulfates, alkyl ether sulfates, etc.) and/or a nonionic surfactant (e.g., an alkyl polyglucoside). The composition may be free of alkoxylated nonionic surfactants which are not stable in the present compositions, which have high ionic strength (e.g., due to ˜3% of the zinc salt included in the formula). The composition may be free of various other components that would not be stable in such high ionic strength conditions, or otherwise interfere with stability and efficacy of the sanitizing and/or disinfecting laundry composition.

The present invention relates to a process for preparing a spray-dried laundry detergent particle, wherein the process includes the step of contacting water-insoluble silicate salt to monomeric organic carboxylic acid in an aqueous mixture, wherein the aqueous mixture has a pH of 4.2 or less, wherein the aqueous mixture includes detersive surfactant, wherein the aqueous mixture is substantially free of carbonate salt, wherein the water-insoluble silicate salt reacts with the monomeric organic carboxylic acid to form silica, wherein the aqueous mixture is spray-dried to form a spray-dried laundry detergent particle, wherein the particle comprises: detersive surfactant; monomeric organic carboxylic acid; and silica, wherein the particle is substantially free of carbonate salt.

The disclosure provides cleaning compositions including at least one acid, at least one carbonate salt, at least one gum, at least one acid salt, and, optionally, at least one chelating agent. When exposed to an aqueous medium, the cleaning compositions may produce carbon dioxide. These cleaning compositions find use, for example, in cleaning textile fibers, such as carpets, drapery, upholstery, and the like. The disclosure provides methods of cleaning soiled textile fibers with a cleaning composition including gum arabic, at least one acid, and at least one carbonate salt.

A water-soluble unit dose article that includes a water-soluble film and powder composition, where the powder composition includes a) an acyl hydrazone bleach catalyst; b) from 1% to 10% by weight of the composition of an alkali metal carbonate; c) from 5% to 20% by weight of the composition of an alkali metal bicarbonate; d) from 5% to 20% by weight of the composition of an alkali metal silicate; e) from 5% to 20% by weight of the composition of an alkali metal sulphate.

A method for cleaning a substrate which is or comprises a textile, the method comprising agitating the substrate in the presence of a cleaning composition comprising: i. cleaning particles comprising a thermoplastic polyamide and a particulate inorganic filler having a density of at least 2.5 g/cm.sup.3, said cleaning particles having an average particle size of from 1 to 100 mm, wherein the cleaning particles have an average density of at least 1.65 g/cm.sup.3 and/or the particulate inorganic filler has a D.sub.50 particle size of at least 10 microns and/or a D.sub.90 particle size of at least 40 microns; and ii. a liquid medium.

A cleaning composition comprising a particle said particle comprising: (a) from 30 to 70% by weight thereof of a polymer having a softening point in the range from about 20° C. to about 60° C.; (b) from 20 to 60% by weight thereof of a first material having a BET surface area greater than 100 m2/g and a D50 from about 5 to about 20 μm; (c) from 3 wt % to 15% by weight thereof of a second material having a BET surface area from about 0.01 to about 5 m2/g and a D50 from about 30 to about 100 μm.

No rinse, low pH food contact disinfecting and sanitizing compositions comprising one or more quaternary ammonium compounds in combination with an acid source are provided. The compositions include antimicrobial quaternary ammonium compounds such as alkyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chlorides (ADBAC), alkyl dimethyl ethyl benzyl ammonium chlorides (ADEBAC), dialkyl dimethyl ammonium chlorides (DAAC), or a combination thereof together with an organic acid. The disinfecting and sanitizing compositions and methods of using the same provide enhanced microbial kill at an acidic pH and even at very low concentrations of the antimicrobial quaternary ammonium compound.
