HEAVY DUTY LIQUID DETERGENT COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING SALTS OF ALPHA SULFONATED FATTY ACID METHYL ESTERS AND USE OF ALPHA-SULFONATEDFATTY ACID SALTS TO INHIBIT REDEPOSITION OF SOIL ON FABRIC.

摘要

Disclosed are detergent compositions comprising: (a) an 'alpha'-sulfonated alkyl ester of a fatty acid having an average of about 12-16 carbon atoms; (b) an anionic surfactant; and (c) a nonionic surfactant, and methods for preparing such compositions. Also disclosed are methods for inhibiting redeposition of soil on fabric, in which the fabric is treated with a detergent comprising a salt of an 'alpha'-sulfonated fatty acid having from about 8-22 carbon atoms.
