Abstract: A cleaning composition is prepared including an anionic surfactant, a nonionic surfactant, a fatty acid, a water soluble organic solvent, a water insoluble organic solvent and sequestering agent of 2-hydroxy-3-aminopropionic-N,N-diacetic or its derivatives in the amount of about 2.0% to 8.0% by weight. The cleaning composition is particularly adapted for cleaning hard surfaces and is effective in degreasing and removing soap scum from kitchen and bathroom surfaces. The composition has a pH of about 8.5 to 12.5 and is particularly suited for acid sensitive surfaces.

Abstract: A bleaching agent is described particularly effective for low temperature bleaching of laundry while avoiding concomitant dye damage of bleach-sensitive dyed fabrics. The bleaching agent comprises particles of monoperoxyphthalic acid (MPPA) and/or a water-soluble salt thereof, said particles being at least partially coated with an effective amount of a substantially aliphatic fatty acid mixture comprised of at least 16% and no more than about 40%, by weight, of fatty acids having a chain length of from 20 to 22 carbon atoms, said mixture being substantially free of fatty acids having less than 14 carbon atoms.

Abstract: A nonaqueous liquid nonbuilt laundry detergent bleach booster composition comprising a suspension or solution of diacetyl methyl amine (DAMA) organic liquid peroxy compound precursor in liquid nonionic surfactant. The bleach booster composition comprises a nonaqueous liquid nonionic surfactant containing a stable suspension or solution of diacetyl methyl amine (DAMA) and an anti-gel and viscosity control agent. The bleach booster composition is easily pourable and readily disperses on contact with water.
