Abstract: Cleaning compositions and processes for making and using same. In some examples, the cleaning composition can include about 0.02 wt % to about 26 wt % of a neutralized tall oil fatty acids; about 0.01 wt % to about 9 wt % of a solvent; and about 65 wt % to about 99.97 wt % of water, where all weight percent values are based on a combined weight of the neutralized tall oil fatty acids, the solvent, and the water.

Abstract: Spray dried emulsifier compositions are described, which have desirable emulsifying and wetting characteristics. Among other advantages, the solid particulate emulsifier compositions greatly reduce transportation costs and simplify the logistics and environmental concerns associated with shipping large volumes of solvent-containing liquids. The emulsifier comprises (1) a carboxylic acid terminated fatty amine condensate or (2) a modified tall oil or (3) a blend of (1) and (2) that is converted to its alkali or alkaline earth metal salt and spray dried.
