  • Patent number: 6534464
    Abstract: An &agr;-sulfofatty acid ester and polyalkoxylated alkanolamide composition and method. The &agr;-sulfofatty acid ester is formed into an ester portion, and the polyalkoxylated alkanolamide is formed into an alkanolamide portion. Both portions can optionally include other detergent components. Each portion comprises a plurality of particles, such as a powder or beads, pellets, granules, and the like. Each portion is formed separately, and then the portions are mixed. The portions can be combined in any suitable ratios, according to the desired properties of the final composition.

  • Patent number: 6509310
    Abstract: Compositions and methods for a composition comprising at least one &agr;-sulfofatty acid ester in a first portion and at least one basic material in a second, different portion. After preparing the first and second portions separately, the first and second portions are joined to form a final composition. The first and second portions are joined together to form the final composition in a manner to minimize contact, thereby reducing the formation of additional di-salts, and thereby improving the properties of the composition.
