Abstract: Laundry granular detergent compositions useful for hand wash and machine-assisted hand wash laundry operations. The composition contains 5% to 40% of a surfactant, the surfactant containing: 1) 60% to 95% primary anionic surfactant selected from alkylbenzene sulfonate, alkyl sulfate, and mixtures thereof; and 2) 2.5% to 18% alkyl ethoxy ether sulfate (AES) surfactant having an average of from about 1 to about 9 moles ethoxy per mole surfactant, the ratio of alkylbenzene sulfate and alkyl sulfate surfactant to alkyl ethoxy ether sulfate surfactant being within the range of from about 30:1 to about 4:1. The composition also preferably contains 2.0% to 5.5% hydroxyalkyl quaternary ammonium cationic surfactant, the ratio of alkylbenzene sulfonate and alkyl sulfate surfactant to such cationic surfactant being from 40:1 to 16:1.
