  • Patent number: 7186675
    Abstract: Surfactant combinations containing: (a) one or more alkyl ether sulfates; (b) at least one quaternary ammonium compound corresponding to formula I: in which EO is ethylene oxide, R and R? are the same or different and represent alkyl groups, n1 is 0–30 n2 is 0–30, and A is a counterion; (c) 0 to 50% of one or more alkyl and/or aryl sulfonates; (d) 0 to 15% of one or more alkyl sulfates; and (e) 0 to 20% of one or more amphoteric surfactants, and water-based cleaning composition containing such surfactant combinations.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20030171247
    Abstract: The invention relates to a surfactant combination containing (a) one or more alkyl ether sulphates, (b) at least one quaternary ammonium compound of formula (I) which result in a substantial improvement in drying and draining quality, and optionally (c) 0-50% of one or more alkyl and/or aryl sulphonates, (d) 0-15% of one or more alkyl sulphates and/or (e) 0-20% one of more amphoteric surfactants. The surfactant combination can be used as a component of an aqueous, liquid agent for cleaning hard surfaces, particularly crockery.

  • Patent number: 6432892
    Abstract: A low-foaming clear composition for cleaning fruit, vegetables, or meat that can be diluted by the user before use and/or directly sprayed on and that shows high cleaning performance, particularly in dissolving wax, and also high wetting power. The compositions contain C4-9 alkyl polyglycosides.

  • Publication number: 20010031712
    Abstract: A surfactant combination contains (a) one or more alkyl ether sulfates, (b) one or more alkyl sulfonates in a quantity—based on the surfactant combination—of less than 50% by weight and (c) one or more amphoteric surfactants and, to improve drying and drainage behavior, may be part of a water-based liquid composition which may be used to clean hard surfaces, more particularly tableware.
