Abstract: A bleach activator/complexing agent compound and multi-phase washing and cleaning agents including at least one liquid, low-water to water-free phase and at least one solid, pulverous or granular phase and containing at least one bleach activator, which is compounded with at least one complexing agent. Also disclosed are methods of using such agents in washing and cleaning.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a filament (1,13,24) for printing a washing or cleaning agent product (12,28,31), comprising a filament matrix and at least one washing or cleaning agent component bound in the filament matrix, the filament matrix is formed, at least essentially, by at least one water-soluble plastic and the at least one washing or cleaning agent component is received in the filament matrix.

Abstract: A continuous method for preparing a liquid washing or cleaning agent which includes at least one surfactant and at least one dye. In this case, the dye solution used in the method according to the invention is free of preservatives. The present invention also relates to washing or cleaning agents which are obtained by way of the method according to the invention.

Abstract: A device for producing a water-soluble shell for receiving a filling substance, the device having a basin which is filled with a melt of a shell material, wherein the shell material is polymer-containing and water-soluble and solid under normal conditions, and a male mold which is movably arranged in the region of the basin, can be automatically submerged into the melt and can be removed from the basin in order to form a water-soluble shell optionally abutting the male mold. The invention also relates to a corresponding method and a corresponding shell and a corresponding portion for use as a washing or cleaning agent.

Abstract: An apparatus for production of a water-soluble shell for holding a filling substance, having a tank filled with a melt of a shell material, wherein the shell material contains a polymer and is water-soluble and is solid under standard conditions, and a male mold movably arranged in the region of the tank and automatically lowerable into the melt and withdrawable from the tank in order to form a water-soluble shell. The invention also relates to a corresponding process and to a corresponding shell and to a corresponding portion pack for use as a washing or cleaning agent.

Abstract: A method for producing a multiphase washing or cleaning agent shaped body, including the steps of: a) providing a first free-flowing washing or cleaning agent; b) providing a second washing or cleaning agent; c) feeding the first and second washing or cleaning agent to an injector; d) introducing the first free-flowing washing or cleaning agent and the second free-flowing washing or cleaning agent into a mold by way of the injector; e) solidifying at least one of the free-flowing first and second washing or cleaning agents in the mold, forming a multiphase washing or cleaning agent shaped body; f) removing the multiphase washing or cleaning agent shaped body from the mold, wherein the first and second free-flowing washing or cleaning agent are introduced into the mold through outlet openings in the injector, which are separated. The invention also relates to multiphase shaped bodies produced by way of this method.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing liquid surfactant-containing compositions in a sequential, continuous process which makes it possible to fill multi-chamber containers simultaneously with different compositions.

Abstract: A cleaning agent, preferably a dishwashing detergent, in particular an automatic dishwashing detergent, having at least one low-water, preferably substantially water-free, gel phase, which contains at least one particular non-ionic surfactant, preferably in quantities from 0.1 to 15 wt. %, from 0.5 to 10 wt. %, in particular from 0.8 to 8.5 wt. %, particularly preferably from 1 to 7 wt. %, for example from 1.0 to 4.0 wt. %, based on the total weight of the gel phase.

Abstract: A portion unit of a cleaning agent, having a cleaning agent composition and a chamber which receives the cleaning agent composition and includes a chamber wall that delimits the chamber and has a layer thickness D. The chamber includes a main volume and at least one auxiliary volume, and the cleaning agent composition can freely enter the at least one auxiliary volume from the main volume and vice versa, wherein the chamber wall is formed in a transition region between the main volume and the at least one auxiliary volume in a substantially stepped manner. The invention additionally relates to a method for producing such a portion unit.
