Abstract: The present invention relates to a laundry detergent comprising a granulated foam control composition and an anionic detersive surfactant, wherein said granulated foam control composition comprises: (a) a foam control agent comprising: i. a polydiorganosiloxane fluid comprising units of the formula where each group R, which may be the same or different, is selected from an alkyl group having 1 to 36 carbon atoms or an aryl group or aralkyl group having 1 to 36 carbon atoms, the mean number of carbon atoms in the groups R being at least 1.3; ii. a hydrophobic filler dispersed in the polydiorganosiloxane fluid; (b) an organic additive having a melting point of from about 45° C. to about 100° C. comprising a polyol ester which is a polyol esterified by carboxylate groups each having 7 to 36 carbon atoms, and which is miscible with said polydiorganosiloxane fluid; (c) a water soluble inorganic particulate carrier; (d) a cationic polymer; (e) a surfactant.

Abstract: A laundry detergent comprising a granulated foam control composition and an anionic detersive surfactant.

Abstract: Layered particles that contain a source of hydrogen peroxide, a binder material, and a bleach activator are disclosed. The disclosed layered particles have improved properties and are useful, for example, for incorporation into granular detergents. A method of improving the stability of a source of hydrogen peroxide is also disclosed.
