Abstract: A mixed nonionic detergent composition having a reduced viscosity at room temperature and whose aqueous solution has a substantially reduced viscosity at room temperature consisting essentially of:(a) from 40% to 60% by weight of at least one compound of the formula:R.sup.1 --O--(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O).sub.n --Hwherein R.sup.1 represents the hydrocarbon moiety of a fatty alcohol having from 6 to 18 carbon atoms and n is a number from 4 to 15, and(b) from 60% to 40% by weight of at least one compound of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.2 represents an alkyl having from 8 to 14 carbon atoms and p and q are each a number from 0 to 15, the sum of p+q being a number from 4 to 15.

Abstract: This invention relates to clear, stable aqueous or aqueous-alcoholic solutions of fat-soluble perfume oils which contain hydroxyalkylether alkoxylates as solubilizers. Said solubilizers are prepared by reacting epoxyalkanes with mono- or polyfunctional alcohols and then reacting the reaction product thereof successively with propylene oxide and ethylene oxide.

Abstract: This invention relates to a detergent composition comprising:(a) from about 40 to 60% by weight of compounds of formulaR.sup.1 --O--(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O).sub.n --H (I)wherein R.sup.1 represents a saturated or unsaturated aliphatic radical of a fatty alcohol having from about 6 to 18 carbon atoms, and n is an integer of from 4 to 15; and(b) from about 60 to 40% by weight of compounds of formula ##STR1## wherein R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 each independently represent an alkyl radical having from about 1 to 17 carbon atoms, the total number of carbon atoms in R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 being from about 8 to 18, and p and q each independently represent a number from 0 to 15, the sum of p and q being from about 4 to 15.
