Abstract: Use of amines as bleaching efficiency boosters for textile detergent compositions, where the pK.sub.a of the amines is greater than the pH minus 1, preferably greater than the pH, particularly preferably at least 0.5 greater than the pH of the 1% by weight wash liquor obtained from the textile detergent composition.

Abstract: The microcapsules containing bleaching agents are obtainable by polymerizing monomer mixtures which comprise5-100% by weight of at least one ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic anhydride (a),0-95% by weight of at least one monoethylenically unsaturated monomer (b) different from the monomers of group (a),0-80% by weight of crosslinking monomers (c) which have at least two nonconjugated monoethylenic double bonds in the molecule, and0-20% by weight of water-soluble monoethylenically unsaturated monomers (d),where the total of components (a) to (d) is 100% by weight. The polymerization takes place in the oil phase of a stable oil-in-water emulsion in the presence of free-radical polymerization initiators, where the temperature of the polymerizing reaction mixture is, where appropriate, increased continuously or periodically during the polymerization. The oil phase contains or consists of the bleaching aid.

Abstract: Salts of aromatic hydroxy compounds are used as brighteners in acidic electroplating baths. Furthermore, acidic electroplating baths for the electrolytic deposition of metallic layers onto shaped articles comprise, as brighteners, at least one novel salt of an aromatic hydroxy compound. Finally, shaped articles are electroplated by a process using the novel acidic electroplating baths.
