Dissolvable Toilet Brush Formulations
Formulations for dissolvable solid unit dose toilet cleaning compositions containing an anionic surfactant, a carbonate or bicarbonate salt, a water-soluble filler and an organic acid, wherein the ratio of anionic surfactant to filler is 1:6 to 5:1. The filler includes clay, a sugar or a salt. The solid unit dose can be a tablet or compressed solid that engages with a wand to clean a toilet. The solids dissolve and can be flushed after use.
Compressed Unit Dose Toilet Cleaning Tablets
A compressed unit dose toilet cleaning tablet for use with a wand. The unit dose contains surfactant, organic acid, and an organic acid buffering agent and is compressed into a tablet or puck that dissolves in toilet water after cleaning. The tablet has a top surface, a bottom surface, a height extending from the top surface to the bottom surface, and a diameter. The top surface has an indentation adapted to receive and engage with a wand. A ratio of the height to the diameter of the tablet is between 0.2 and 0.3. A kit contains a plurality of the tablets and a wand.
SILICA MICROCAPSULES
Silica microcapsules, each of which includes a shell, and a core containing one or more organic compounds inside the shell, a softener composition containing the silica microcapsules, and a method of producing the silica microcapsules is described. In the silica microcapsules, the shell contains silica as a constituent component, and the organic compound contains a primary alcohol.
Concentrated Liquid Detergent
Unit dose detergent packs and detergent compositions are provided. A unit dose detergent pack includes a pouch made of a water-soluble film and a detergent composition encapsulated within the pouch. The detergent composition includes a surfactant component including (1) an alcohol ethoxy sulfate having a C.sub.8-C.sub.20 backbone ethoxylated with from about 1 to about 10 moles of ethylene oxide, (2) at least one non-ionic surfactant having an alkoxylated alcohol, and (3) at least one anionic surfactant having a linear alkylbenzene sulfonate wherein (1), (2), and (3) are present in a weight ratio of actives of about (0 to 0.5):(0.05 to 0.9):(0 to 0.75). The detergent composition also includes water and a rheology control agent. The rheology control agent is selected from ethylene glycol monohexyl ether, ethylene glycol monopropyl ether, an ethoxylated ester, polyethylene glycol 400, an alkoxylated amine, and combinations of two or more thereof.
CLEANING PRODUCT
A cleaning product includes a spray dispenser and a cleaning composition. The composition is housed in the spray dispenser. The cleaning composition includes from 5% to 25% of a surfactant system by weight of the composition. The surfactant system includes alkyl polyglucoside surfactant; a co-surfactant selected from zwitterionic surfactant, amphoteric surfactant, or mixtures thereof; and less than 3% by weight of the cleaning composition of anionic surfactant. The alkyl polyglucoside surfactant and the co-surfactant are present at a weight ratio of from 10:1 to 1:2. The cleaning composition further includes 0.1% to 10% of an organic solvent by weight of the composition. The pH of the composition is less than 8 as measured neat at 20° C.
CLEANING COMPOSITION COMPRISING A DISPERSIN AND A CARBOHYDRASE
Cleaning compositions may include a mix of enzymes that include a dispersin and a carbohydrase. Said compositions may be used in cleaning processes and/or for deep cleaning of organic stains.
COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING CATIONIC POLY ALPHA-1,3-GLUCAN ETHERS
Fabric conditioning compositions that include a poly alpha-1,3-glucan ether compound and depositable actives, where the poly alpha-1,3-glucan ether compound may be characterized by certain molecular weights and degrees of cationic substitution. Related methods of using and making such compositions.
AUTOMATIC DISHWASHING COMPOSITION
An automatic dishwashing composition comprising polyepoxysuccinic acid (PESA) or derivatives thereof.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY PHOTORESIST REMOVING COMPOSITION AND METHOD FOR USING THE SAME
An environmentally friendly photoresist removing composition includes 20 parts by weight to 80 parts by weight of a carbonate compound, 0.5 parts by weight to 15 parts by weight of a hydramine compound, an amide compound, or an ammonium compound, 1 part by weight to 20 parts by weight of an organic base compound, and 2 parts by weight to 70 parts by weight of an alcohol ether compound.
Powdered Cleaning Composition Having Improved Dissolution
A powdered cleaning composition includes at least one acid chosen from citric acid, glycolic acid, and combinations thereof and present in an amount of from about 1 to about 30 wt % actives based on a total weight of the composition, at least one anionic surfactant present in an amount of from about 5 to about 50 wt % actives based on a total weight of the composition, and at least two fillers chosen from a salt, a sugar, and a clay and present in a total amount of from about 10 to about 80 wt % actives based on a total weight of the composition, wherein the composition comprises water in an amount of less than about 15 wt % based on a total weight of the composition, and wherein the composition has a dissolution percentage of at least about 12% after about 5 minutes in water at about 25° C.
