High performance dishwasher compositions for short dishwasher cycles and methods of making the same
Abstract:
A dishwasher composition includes at least one strong chelant, at least one weak chelant, a structural constituent, at least one surfactant, and a primary polymer. The primary polymer includes a copolymer having sulfonic acid monomer units and monomer units comprising one or more supplemental monomers, wherein the primary polymer comprises from 10 wt. % to 50 wt. % sulfonic acid monomer units and has a weight average molecular weight of less than or equal to 20,000 g/mol. The dishwasher composition can be a liquid or a gel and has a pH of from 7.0 to 9.5. Methods of washing articles include preparing a wash solution that includes water and the dishwasher composition, and contacting at least one article with the washing solution during at least a portion of a wash cycle of a commercially-available dishwasher.
