Abstract: The application describes a liquid washing or cleaning agent comprising a) an alkoxylated oxo alcohol with 7 or 8 alkoxy units and b) a polymer with a soil detachment capacity. The liquid washing or cleaning agent exhibits elevated cleaning performance, in particular on greasy soiling, and improved graying inhibition.

Abstract: The application describes a water-soluble package which comprises an agent and a water-soluble covering, wherein at least part of an exposed surface of the water-soluble package is dusted with a saccharide-containing powder. Saccharide-dusted water-soluble packages exhibit advantages in terms of their transport properties during the production and packaging process and during storage in a secondary package.

Abstract: The invention relates to detergents or cleaning agents which comprise capsules that are low in formaldehydes and/or free from formaldehyde, are storage stable and thus prevent a contamination of the detergent or cleaning agent with formaldehyde, comprising microcapsules, the capsule wall of which contains a resin which is obtained by reacting at least one aromatic alcohol or ether or derivative thereof and at least one aldehydic component which comprises at least two C-atoms per molecule, and optionally at least one (meth)acrylate-polymer, and builders and/or surfactants. Said detergent or cleaning agents enable, during application, a targeted and durable release of liquid active agents, such as, in particular scents, to the treated objects.

Abstract: The invention discloses a laundry article used for cleaning fabrics comprising a water-insoluble nonwoven substrate and coated thereon into at least one zone each a detergent composition and an enzyme-containing composition. The enzyme-containing composition comprises an enzyme embedded in a thickened matrix.

Abstract: The application describes fragrant water-soluble packaging which contains a liquid laundry detergent or cleaning composition and a water-soluble envelope. The liquid laundry detergent or cleaning composition comprises at least 10% by weight of glycerol, a second solvent, surfactant and a perfume, where the perfume contains particular amounts of perfume constituents.

Abstract: The invention relates to a washing or cleaning agent, wherein use thereof generates hydrogel layers surfaces, comprising a hydrogel former having a molecular weight less than 3500 g/Mol, wherein the hydrogel former is water-soluble at concentrations below the minimum gel formation concentration, wherein the minimum gel formation concentration is the concentration at which a yield point of at least 0.05 Pa is formed in a binary solution of water and hydrogel former at T=25° C., and wherein said minimum gel formation concentration lies below 2 wt % of hydrogel former, relative to the system consisting of water and hydrogel former. The washing or cleaning agents according to the invention enable the hydrophiliation of surfaces, and the specific and retarded releasing of active substances embedded in the hydrogel layers, such as aromatic substances or antimicrobial active substances, for example.

Abstract: The invention describes a stable liquid washing agent or liquid cleaning agent having a yield point and very good dispersing properties. The agents contain anionic and nonionic surfactants as well as inorganic salt, at a specific ratio to one another. The invention also relates to use of the liquid washing agent or liquid cleaning agent, and to a method for manufacturing it.

Abstract: The invention relates to a packaging system comprising a closable container for receiving a plurality of water-soluble film pouches and at least one scent composition carrier that can be freely positioned in the container, at least one first group of water-soluble film pouches that stores at least one washing or cleaning agent preparation containing a scent composition.

Abstract: A laundry article used for cleaning fabrics includes a water-insoluble nonwoven substrate and coated thereon into at least one zone each a detergent composition and an enzyme-containing composition. The enzyme-containing composition comprises an enzyme embedded in a matrix.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of an anionic polymer in a liquid washing or cleaning agent for inhibiting graying when washing and/or cleaning textile web materials, and acrylic acid homopolymers comprising liquid washing and cleaning agents.

Abstract: Herein a solid, scent-imparting composition is disclosed that comprises a water-soluble support, a water-soluble polymer, a malodor-absorbing compound, and a perfume. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the water-soluble support is provided as a particulate that is coated with an envelope consisting of the water-soluble polymer, the malodor-absorbing compound, and the perfume. A detergent compound may be included that is at least partly in and/or on the envelope. Washing or cleaning agents comprising the scent-imparting compositions are also described.

Abstract: The present invention is an auxiliary washing aid comprising a textile substrate coated or otherwise impregnated with a composition comprising elementary silver and/or a silver compound, non-neutralized fatty acid, and hydrogen peroxide.

Abstract: A fragrance-dispensing system comprises a wick and diffuser, wherein the diffuser surface in contact with surrounding air is larger than the wick surface in contact with the air, a container for receiving the wick, and a fragrance preparation in the container, wherein the fragrance is transported by the wick to the diffuser by capillary action. Within the capillary flow path of the fragrant substance preparation through the wick and/or diffuser, at least one repository is provided, through which the fragrant substance preparation can flow and which has at least one dye that can be dissolved by the fragrant substance preparation.

Abstract: A fragrance-dispensing system comprises a wick and diffuser, wherein the diffuser surface in contact with surrounding air is larger than the wick surface in contact with the air, a container for receiving the wick, and a fragrance preparation in the container, wherein the fragrance is transported by the wick to the diffuser by capillary action. At least sections of the diffuser include a color-changing agent that interacts with at least one substance present in the fragrance such that a color change is produced on and/or in the diffuser section when the substance comes into contact with the color changing agent.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a stain pretreatment agent containing a mixture of a short-chain and a long-chain polyethylene glycol and to the use thereof, and to a cleaning pen containing said stain pretreatment agent.
