Abstract: A dish rack for cleaning reusable plastic dishware can include a bottom support wall, a sidewall defining an outer frame, and a cover positionable over the bottom support wall. In some examples, the dish rack includes spaced-apart prongs extending upwardly from the bottom support wall. In use, an operator can load reusable plastic dishware on or between the prongs of the dish rack and close the cover. This can enclose the reusable plastic in a space bounded between the bottom support wall, the sidewall defining the frame, and the cover. Once loaded, the operator can insert the dishrack into the dishwasher to clean the reusable plastic dishware while retained in the dish rack. The dish rack can allow the reusable plastic dishware to be properly cleaned while minimizing or eliminating problems associated with the comparatively light reusable plastic dishware moving in response to high pressure water within the dishwasher.

Abstract: A solid fabric softening composition is disclosed which includes a quaternary ammonium fabric softening compound which is stabilized to form a solid with a mixture of a water soluble organic salt and a medium to long chain carboxylic acid. This stabilizing combination has been shown to effectively form a solid quaternary ammonium based fabric softening composition with up to as much as 70% by weight of quaternary ammonium compound. The formulations are stable at typical storage temperatures of up to 110° F. and provide fabric softening similar to and even superior to other traditional liquid formulations.
