LOW SUDSING GRANULAR DETERGENT COMPOSITION CONTAINING OPTIMALLY SELECTED LEVELS OF A FOAM CONTROL AGENT, BLEACH ACTIVATOR/PEROXYGEN BLEACHING AGENT SYSTEM AND ENYZME

摘要

A granular detergent composition is provided. The detergent composition comprises at least about 1% by weight of a surfactant and at least about 1% by weight of a builder. The detergent composition also includes from about 6% to about 9% of a particulate foam control agent. In addition, the detergent composition includes from about 1% to about 5% of a bleach activator, from about 0.3% to about 7% of a peroxygen bleaching agent and from about 0.05% to about 0.2% of a cellulase enzyme. The bleach activator and the peroxygen bleaching agent are present in the detergent composition in a weight ratio of from about 0 .5:1 to about 4:1 in the granular detergent composition. The detergent composition produces the low level of foam required for optimal cleaning in washing machines employing a low water wash process.
