  • FIBROUS MATRIX OF SYNTHETIC DETERGENTS
    Publication number: 20070203043
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for forming fibers of synthetic detergents. The composition includes a synthetic wax, a primary surfactant added to the synthetic wax, and a secondary surfactant added to the synthetic wax. The present invention also relates to a method for developing fibers of synthetic detergents. The method includes adding a primary surfactant to a synthetic wax; adding a secondary surfactant to the synthetic wax; and forming the synthetic wax into fibers. In another form, the present invention relates to a fiber that includes a synthetic wax, a primary surfactant embedded in the synthetic wax, and a secondary surfactant embedded in the synthetic wax. The present invention also relates to a fibrous matrix of synthetic detergents. The fibrous matrix includes fibers formed of a synthetic wax and a primary surfactant embedded in the fibers. The fibrous matrix further includes a secondary surfactant embedded in the fibers.
