  • Patent number: 11667871
    Abstract: A detergent composition includes a surfactant component in an amount of about 20 to about 75 weight percent actives based on a total weight of the detergent composition. The surfactant component includes an alkyl ether sulfate, an alkoxylated alcohol, and a linear alkylbenzene sulfonate. The alkyl ether sulfate is present in an amount of greater than about 20 weight percent actives based on a total weight of the surfactant component. The linear alkylbenzene sulfonate is present in an amount of less than about 40 weight percent actives based on a total weight of the surfactant component. The detergent composition also includes water present in a total amount of from about 10 to about 80 weight and an alkyl dialkylamine oxide present in an amount of from about 0.1 to about 10 weight percent actives, each based on a total weight of the detergent composition.

  • Patent number: 11542460
    Abstract: A multi-chamber single dose pack includes a first water-soluble film, a second water-soluble film adhered to the first film, a first chamber and second chamber formed by the first film and the second film, a first detergent wash composition in the first chamber, a second detergent wash composition in the second chamber, a perforated tear line between the two chambers allowing separation of the two chambers by hand without opening either chamber, and a water-soluble adhesive disposed along an outward-facing portion of either or both of the first and second films. The water-soluble adhesive is configured to allow the attachment of at least one further chamber including a further wash composition.

  • Patent number: 11492574
    Abstract: A unit dose detergent pack includes a pouch formed from a water-soluble film and a liquid detergent composition releasably disposed within the pouch. The liquid detergent composition includes at least two surfactants including from about 3 to about 20% by weight of alkyl polyglycoside and from about 15 to about 70% by weight of an additional surfactant, from about 13 to about 34% by weight of a fatty acid thereof, and less than about 30% by weight of water, with all weight percents based on a total weight of the liquid detergent composition.

  • Patent number: 8551929
    Abstract: The present invention provides unit dose detergent products, such as those in the form of compositions comprising: a water-soluble single-chamber container, such as a pouch; and a cleaning system comprising at least one detersive surfactant, and optionally one or more additional components. The invention also provides methods of production of such compositions, and methods use of such compositions in processes for cleaning dishware and/or fabrics, including garments, by introducing one or more of the unit dose products of the invention into an automatic washing machine suitable for washing dishware or laundry, whereby the cleaning system is released such that it comes into contact with a soiled article (e.g., dishware or fabrics) under conditions favoring the removal of one or more soils from the article.
