  • Composition containing &agr;-sulfofatty acid ester and hydrotrope and methods of making and using the same
    Patent number: 6468956
    Abstract: Compositions containing a &agr;-sulfofatty acid ester and a hydrotrope. The &agr;-sulfofatty acid ester and the hydrotrope reduce the pH drift in the composition and solubilize the &agr;-sulfofatty acid ester in solution. Methods are also disclosed for making such compositions.
    Type: Grant

  • Compositions containing &agr;-sulfofatty acid esters and methods of making and using the same
    Patent number: 6288020
    Abstract: The invention includes compositions containing one or more &agr;-sulfofatty acid esters, and methods for making and using the same. At least one &agr;-sulfofatty acid ester is included in an inner portion. The invented composition can further include an outer portion which protects the &agr;-sulfofatty acid ester from di-salt formation. The resulting composition improves the stability of the &agr;-sulfofatty acid ester after manufacture, during shipping and storage, and in detergents. The invention further included detergents containing the invented composition, and methods of making such detergents.
