  • Powder laundry detergent product with improved cold water residue properties
    Patent number: 6284724
    Abstract: This invention provides a powder carbonate-based laundry detergent which can be utilized in cold water fabric laundering with a minimized remainder of undissolved detergent residue in the wash water. An essential aspect of the laundry detergent formulation is a content of a partially sulfated and neutralized blend of ethoxylated alcohol surfactant constituents. A preferred type of surfactant ingredient is a Neodol 23-3 derived type of blend which is 60-65 percent sulfated and neutralized.
    Type: Grant
