Abstract: A liquid surfactant composition can include a C9-C20 alkylbenzene sulfonate, a nonionic surfactant, and an anionic surfactant. The anionic surfactant can include a first alcohol ether sulfate (AES) surfactant and a second AES surfactant. The first AES surfactant can have a molecular formula of R1—O—(CH2—CH2—O)m—SO3M, wherein R1 represents a C10-C20 alkyl group, m represents a number from 6 to 8, and M represents a monovalent cation. The second AES surfactant can have a molecular formula of R2—O—(CH2—CH2—O)n—SO3M?, wherein R2 represents a C10-C20 alkyl group, n is 2 or 3, and M? represents a monovalent cation. The first AES surfactant and the second AES surfactant can be present in the liquid surfactant composition at a weight ratio to provide the liquid surfactant composition with a fresh viscosity from about 350 centipoise (cPS) to about 550 cps.

Abstract: The invention relates to a mixing device for mixing a pulverulent product, which is contained in a film sachet that is soluble in liquid, with said liquid and optionally at least one additional component. The aim of the invention is to accelerate the mixing of pulverulent products, which are packed in film sachets that are soluble in liquid, with a liquid, without the risk of creating dust. This is achieved by a sealable mixing container (2) comprising a receiving chamber (7) for the pulverulent product (9) contained in the film sachet (8), the liquid and the optional additional component. The receiving chamber (7) is equipped with fitted components (6, 6?), which act mechanically on the film sachet (8).
