Abstract: The invention relates to a solid, textile or skin care composition which comprises a water-soluble carrier, a textile-softening clay and a textile or skin care compound. The invention especially relates to a solid, textile or skin care composition wherein the water-soluble carrier is particulate and is coated with a powder comprising the softening clay and the textile or skin care compound. The invention also relates to textile-softening detergents or cleaning agents which comprise the textile or skin care composition.

Abstract: A solid textile care composition having a water-soluble carrier, a water-soluble polymer, a textile care compound and a perfume. A solid textile care composition in which the water-soluble carrier is present in particulate form and has an envelope composed of the water-soluble polymer, the textile care compound and the perfume. Also textile care washing or cleaning compositions comprising the textile care composition.

Abstract: Fluid reservoirs which are based on polymer substrates and are capable of storing large amounts of fluids. The storage is reliable and the reemergence from the liquid reservoir is readily controllable, for example, via the temperature or via mechanical actions, to achieve retardation of the fluid release. Also, processes for producing such fluid reservoirs and also their use, for example in washing or cleaning compositions.

Abstract: A method to obtain particles which can absorb large quantities of perfume. The resulting particles are mechanically stable, flow freely, and have no tendency to stick together even when being charged with a great quantity of perfume. The perfume can be stabilized in the particles in such a way that the contained fragrances essentially do not decompose. Also disclosed are the aftertreatment of such particles as well as a detergent composition containing the inventive particles.

Abstract: A particle containing a carbonate, a sulfate, a perfume, and a layered silicate, the particle having a weight ratio of layered silicate to carbonate and sulfate combined of ?1:2. The particles, having a desirable fragrance profile, are useful in detergents, fabric softeners, and textile treatments.

Abstract: A process of making particulate foam regulating granulates by spraying an aqueous foam regulating emulsion containing 16% to 70% by weight of a foam regulating active ingredient based on paraffin wax or silicone oil, 2% by weight to 15% by weight of a nonionic and/or anionic emulsifier, and not more than 80% by weight of water onto a solid carrier material, wherein the carrier material comprises an alkali metal carbonate and a Brønsted acid.

Abstract: Particles, particularly washing, cleaning and/or care product particles, particularly washing, cleaning and/or care product particles, having a bulk weight greater than 450 g/l, particularly 500 g/l to 1200 g/l, characterized in that the particles have a compound mixture and fine-particulate surfactant particles, which have a particle diameter d50 ranging from 0.05 mm to 0.6 mm, a dust value of =0% to a maximum of 0.1%, at least 1% by weight to a maximum of 30% by weight of a surfactant, and at least 10% by weight to a maximum of 40% by weight of sodium carbonate. The indicated weights refer to the total weight of the fine-particulate surfactant particles, comprise, at least in part, discrete surfactant particles, and have a dust value ranging from =0% to =0.2%.

Abstract: Particles which comprise a specified inorganic carrier material, perfume and nonionic surfactant(s) in quantities of at least 0.1% by weight, a method for producing the particles, a detergent composition comprising the particles, and a method for washing textiles with the aid of the detergent composition.
