Abstract: A process for the production of a rheology modifier containing composition comprising the steps of: providing a rheology modifier, wherein said rheology modifier is selected from the group consisting of a water swellable polymer, a non-water soluble crystalline polymer, and mixtures thereof; providing a substantially anhydrous water-miscible liquid carrier; and dispersing said rheology modifier in said substantially anhydrous water-miscible liquid carrier to generate a slurry having a viscosity of less than 2000 mPas at 0.1 s?1 and 20° C. when measured using an AR 1000 rheometer.

Abstract: The invention relates to a multiphase liquid detergent composition comprising at least two visually distinct liquid phases and a surfactant. At least one of the visually distinct phases has a high shear viscosity between about 100 cps and 15,000 cps at 20° C., a medium shear viscosity between about 5,000 cps and about 60,000 at 20° C., and a low shear viscosity between about 10,000 cps and 500,000 cps at 20° C. The present invention further relates to methods of cleaning dishware using such multiphase liquid detergent compositions.

Abstract: A process for packing a detergent composition in a container wherein the process comprises the steps of: a. making the detergent composition in the form of a finished single fluid or a finished plurality of fluids; b. cooling the finished single fluid or at least one finished fluid of the plurality of fluids to produce a cold fluid; c. delivering the cold fluid resulting from step b) into the container using delivering means; and optionally d. subjecting the filled container resulting from step c) to ambient temperature.

Abstract: The invention relates to a multiphase liquid detergent composition comprising at least one cleaning phase and at least one benefit phase, a surfactant, and a crystalline structurant. The crystalline structurant being substantially present in a non-lamellar phase. The invention also relates to a multiphase liquid detergent composition comprising at least two visually distinct liquid phases, a surfactant, and at least two incompatible or reactive materials. The first incompatible or reactive material is distributed in a first visually distinct phase and a second incompatible or reactive material is distributed in a second visually distinct phase. The present invention further relates to methods of cleaning dishware using such multiphase liquid detergent compositions.
