Abstract: The present invention provides a laundry detergent sheet with significant improvements in solubility. That is, the invention provides a sheet of laundry detergent comprising a layer containing a detergent composition and a water-soluble substrate provided on both sides of the layer, wherein said layer comprises a water-soluble or disintegrating-in-water particle group, having an average particle diameter of 60 to 2000 &mgr;m, consisting of a particle group. The water-soluble or disintegrating-in-water particle group means less than 0.025 g of residue on a screen after 0.5 g of the particle group is introduced into 1 L water at 10° C., stirred at a revolution rate of 800 rpm for 10 minutes, and sifted through a screen of 200 mesh size.

Abstract: An economical sheetlike article for laundry whose flexibility is excellent, of which sprinkling and loss of the content are small and wherein a water-soluble substrate having a low basis weight is used. Thus, the present invention provides a sheetlike article for laundry in which a layer containing at least one composition selected from the group consisting of a detergent composition, a fiber softener composition and a bleaching agent composition, is connected with a water-soluble substrate on the both sides of the said layer, and of which the flexibility parameter calculated by a specific method is from 3 to 6.

Abstract: To provide a sheetlike article for laundry which is freed from the scattering or leak of the contents, facilitates arbitrary dispensing and exhibits excellent detergency even when used alone, sheetlike water-soluble substrates are arranged on both surfaces of a thin layer made of a doughy non-phosphate detergent composition which contains nonionic surfactant(s), alkaline agent(s) and sequestering agent(s) and has a penetration hardness at 25° C. of from 0.1 to 10 kg/cm2.
