Abstract: A film-forming composition for use in preparing water-soluble films that are rapidly dissolving under cold water conditions, the composition comprising a water soluble polymer material such as polyvinyl alcohol and a principal solvent, typically diol(s) or derivative of a diol. Films made from the film-forming compositions may be used to encapsulate a variety of compositions for subsequent release into an aqueous medium. Encapsulated compositions can include various laundry detergents and additives, fabric care compositions such as fabric softening compositions and dishwashing detergents among others. When used to encapsulate compositions, the solvent system used in the film-forming composition will have at least one common solvent material as the solvent system used in the encapsulated composition to improve film dissolution and to prevent problems associated with solvent migration.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an article comprising: (a) a liquid composition comprising: (i) enzyme; and (ii) from 0% to 10% (by weight of said liquid composition) free water, preferably 0% to 5% free water; and (iii) carboxylic acid comprising 5 carbon atoms or less, and 1 or 2 carboxy groups; and (iv) chelating agent; and (v) enzyme stabilizing metal ion system consisting of calcium ions and magnesium ions, present in a weight ratio of calcium ion to magnesium ion of from 1:1 to 4:1; and (vi) from 0% to 0.2% (by weight of said liquid composition) source of borate ions; and (b) a water-soluble polymeric material that is capable of being cross-linked by borate ions, preferably a water-soluble polymeric material comprising poly-vinyl alcohol.
