Abstract: Solid laundry detergents, dishwashing detergents and cleaners which are obtained by combining nonionic surfactants with a melting point in the range from 35 to 70° C. and a viscosity, measured in accordance with the Brookfield method (10 rpm, spindel 1, temperature 10° C. above melting point), of less than 5000 mPas, and inorganic or organic carriers are described.

Abstract: Mixtures comprising: (a) a gemini surfactant of the formula (I)

Abstract: The invention relates to gemini surfactants, optionally in combination with ingredients customary in dishwashing detergents and cleaners, optionally with further nonionic surfactants and anionic surfactants, and to the use of such gemini surfactants for improving the wetting behavior and the compatibility with plastics, for the simplified preparation of solid cleaners and as foam-suppressing surfactant in rinse aid formulations.

Abstract: Cleaning compositions containing hydroxy mixed ethers of the general formula (I) are described:

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the production of waterless detergent granules, wherein technical mixtures of alkyl and/or alkenyloligoglycosides and fatty alcohols are reduced to a residual fatty alcohol content of 30 wt. % maximum, and the resulting melt is mixed with detergent additives in a mixer.

Abstract: The invention relates to gemini surfactants, optionally in combination with ingredients customary in rinse aids, optionally with further nonionic surfactants and anionic surfactants, and to the use of the gemini surfactants for improving the wetting behavior in rinse aids.

Abstract: A perfume composition containing: (a) from about 69 to 99% by weight of a disintegrator; (b) from about 1 to 31% by weight of a perfume; (c) up to about 15% by weight of a builder; and (d) up to about 15% by weight of a surfactant, all weights being based on the total weight of the composition, and wherein the composition is in solid form.

Abstract: The invention relates to highly ethoxylated hydroxy mixed ethers, alone or in conjunction with customary detergent and cleaning product ingredients, together if desired with further nonionic surfactants and anionic surfactants, and to the use of such hydroxy mixed ethers for improving wetting behavior and plastics compatibility.

Abstract: The present invention relates to laundry detergent and cleaning product tablets which are distinguished both by high hardness, and thus stability in transit and on handling, and excellent disintegration properties. This advantageous profile of properties is achieved by the tablets comprising fatty alcohol alkoxylates and alkyl polyglycosides in the ratio defined by the invention.

Abstract: The invention relates to detergent tablets which are characterized in that they contain tenside granulates obtained by granulating and compacting non-ionic hydroxy mixed-ether-type tensides in the presence of disintegrants.

Abstract: The invention relates to solid detergents containing hydroxy mixed-ether-type non-ionic tensides.

Abstract: A surfactant composition containing: (a) from about 5 to 50% by weight of an alkyl and/or alkenyl oligoglycoside; (b) from about 5 to 30% by weight of an alcohol polyglycol ether; (c) optionally, up to about 50% by weight of a fatty acid and/or fatty acid alkali metal salt; and (d) remainder, up to 100% by weight, of a builder, all weights being based on the total weight of the composition, and wherein the composition is in granular form.

Abstract: The invention relates to gemini surfactants, optionally in combination with ingredients customary in laundry detergents, dishwashing detergents and cleaners, optionally with further nonionic surfactants and anionic surfactants, and to the use of such gemini surfactants for improving the wetting behavior and the compatibility with plastics, for the simplified preparation of solid cleaners and as foam-suppressing surfactant in rinse aid formulations.

Abstract: Surfactant mixtures in solid form which have a core and a shell, where the core comprises at least one nonionic surfactant, are proposed.

Abstract: A cleaning composition for use in cleaning textile, hair and skin, the composition containing: (a) an esterquat; and (b) aloe.

Abstract: A surfactant composition containing: (a) from about 75 to 97% by weight of an alkyl sulfate; and (b) from about 3 to 25% by weight of an alkenyl sulfate, all weights being based on the weight of the composition, and wherein the surfactant composition is in granular form.

Abstract: Processes for preparing light-colored alkyl and/or alkenyl oligoglycoside mixtures are disclosed. The processes disclosed include providing an initial mixture of an alk(en)yl oligoglycoside and a rheology-modifying agent, the mixture having a viscosity of from 10 to 1000 mPas at a temperature of from 85 to 130° C., and a water content of less than 2% by weight, based on the alk(en)yl oligoglycoside; and bleaching the initial mixture at a temperature of from 85 to 130° C. to form a light-colored surfactant mixture having a water content of less than 2% by weight, based on the alk(en)yl oligoglycoside. Also disclosed is the use of such mixtures in cleaning compositions, such as detergents, washing and dishwashing compositions.
