Abstract:
A homogeneous and single-phase liquid laundry detergent contains alkyl glycoside nonionic surfactant and a detergent builder having a water solubility at 25 DEG C of less than about 55 weight percent.
Abstract:
Glycosides and polyglycosides are described having the formula R(OG)x wherein R is an aliphatic hydrocarbon radical having from 1 to 25 carbon atoms or is a radical with the formula R1(OR2)n which does not have more than 75 carbon atoms and wherein n = 0 to 24 and R1 and R2 are aliphatic hydrocarbon radicals, G is the residue of a saccharide moiety selected from the group consisting of fructose, glucose, mannose, galactose, talose, gulose, allose, altrose, idose, arabinose, xylose, lyxose, ribose or alkoxylated derivatives thereof and x is 1 to 30 which glycosides and polyglycosides inhibit oxidation and acid attack of ferrous metals.
Abstract:
Novel liquid hard surface cleaning compositions are provided in the form of a homogeneous aqueous solution which comprises a glycoside surfactant, a water miscible organic solvent, a water soluble detergent builder and water and which effectively cleans soiled hard surfaces without rinsing and without leaving an objectionable residual film on such surfaces after cleaning.
