Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition, preferably a laundry detergent composition or a laundry additive composition, comprising at least one bleaching agent, at least one bleach activator, at least one oxygen transfer agent, and at least one protease, wherein: the composition comprises between 20 wt. % and 50 wt. % of said at least one bleaching agent, based on the total weight of the composition; and the composition comprises between 0.001 wt. % and 2 wt. % of said at least one oxygen transfer agent, based on the total weight of the composition, wherein said at last one oxygen transfer agent is selected from the group comprising 3-methyl-1,2-benzisothiazol-1,1-dioxide, 1,2,3-Benzoxathiazine, 2,2-dioxide, and combinations thereof. The invention further relates to a method of a laundering a fabric in a laundry washing machine. It also relates to the use of the composition for the removal of stains, malodour removal, and preferably whiteness improvement.

Abstract: A bleach catalyst suitable for use in automatic dishwashing comprising a mixed metal oxide.

Abstract: A composition for use in stain removal comprising at least one probiotic, bleach, and an enrichment medium.

Abstract: A composition comprises a bleach and an optical brightener, wherein the optical brightener is selected from the substance class(es) of benzonitrile, benzoxazole, benzopyrazol as well as their derivatives and substituted compounds. The optical brightener is present in an amount of 0.001 to 1 wt %, e.g. 0.08 wt %. The composition comprises a nonionic surfactant in a ratio by weight to the optical brightener is from around 5:1 to 1000:1.

Abstract: A composition comprises a source of oxygen and a polyurethane for use in a treatment operation in cleaning a fabric material.

Abstract: A container comprises a detergent formulation. The container includes a first enclosing wall. The first enclosing wall is permeable to water. The container includes a second enclosing wall. The second enclosing wall comprises a bleaching catalyst admixture and a support material.

Abstract: A composition comprises a bleaching catalyst admixed with an insoluble support matrix.

Abstract: A structured detergent composition comprises a bleach component. The bleach component has a particle size of less than 150 ?m.

Abstract: This invention relates to aqueous enzyme-containing liquid detergents, preferably for use as a laundry booster compositions either as a pre-wash composition or in conjunction with a laundry detergent, with good enzyme stability. The stability of the enzymes is improved by the inclusion of a hydrogen peroxide destroying agent, preferably catalase.

Abstract: An aqueous cleaning composition comprising: hydrogen peroxide or a source thereof; an anionic sulfonate surfactant; a fatty acid amide; a non-ionic surfactant; and a sarcosinate compound.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a water-soluble container comprising at least one compartment prepared from a thermoformed sheet of hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) and to a process for preparing such a container.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition for use in a washing machine. The composition is characterised by a base composition that becomes active essentially during the main wash cycle of the washing machine; and by at least one particle with at least one core which contains at least one substance which becomes active essentially during the rinse cycles of the washing machine and with a coating which essentially fully encloses the core(s) and contains at least one compound whose solubility increases as the concentration of a specific compound in the surrounding medium decreases. The invention provides for means that prevent a significant dissolution of the coating or a significant detachment of the coating from the core(s) until the rinse cycles have begun. The invention also relates to a method for carrying out a wash cycle in a washing machine using the inventive composition.

Abstract: An acidic liquid peroxide bleach formulation for laundry comprising particles in stable suspension said particles comprising, as a core, at least one fatty acid and/or salt thereof, and a coating which is insoluble in the bleach formulation, but becomes rapidly soluble upon raising the pH of the environment-above about 7.

Abstract: Composition for use in a washing machine, characterized by a basic composition evolving its function essentially in the main washing cycle of the washing machine and in the form of a tablet, and at least one particle with at least one core comprising at least one substance evolving its function essentially in the rinsing cycles, and a covering substantially completely surrounding the core or cores comprising at least one compound, whose solubility increases with decreasing concentration of a specific ion in the surrounding medium, the at least one particle being placed in or on the tablet in such a way that the surface of the particle or particles is at the most in partial direct contact with the surface of the basic composition surrounding the same and the concentration of the specific ion in the local environment of the particle or particles is sufficiently high up to a substantially complete dissolving of the tablet in order to prevent a substantial dissolving of the covering or a substantial detachment of

Abstract: A laundry composition, preferably to be used in addition to a laundry detergent, comprises an acidic peroxidic liquid, and particles suspended in the liquid. The particles comprise a protective coating around a core which includes at least one active ingredient selected from a chelating agent, a dye-transfer inhibitor, an anti-fading agent, an anti-bacterial agent, a fabric softener, a transition metal compound and an optical brightener. The particles are stable in the acidic peroxidic liquid but dissolve or disperse under alkaline washing conditions. Surprisingly incorporation of active ingredient(s) into particles appears to give better washing results than the dissolution of such active ingredients in such a liquid.
