摘要

A detergent composition is provided containing as essential ingredients one or more surfactants, one or more builders, perborate, and a member of the group chosen from (a) acidic substances acceptable in detergent compositions and having a pK value of at least 2, and (b) compounds which in aqueous solutions of said compositions form said substance in situ, a 0.5% aqueous solution of said composition having an initial pH of 5.0-8.5, measured at room temperature. The composition may contain further usual additives, and is preferably substantially phosphate-free. Surfactants of the polyether-carboxylic acid type may be used herein advantageously.
