COLD WATER DETERGENT COMPOSITION AND METHOD

摘要

A cold water cleaning composition containing a peroxy compound, a chelating agent, a silicate, an acrylic polymer, an anionic surfactant, an amphoteric surfactant and an ionic surfactant in a basic composition using a water soluble metal hydroxide and a water soluble metal carbonate is provided. The base for the detergent is a water soluble metal alkali such as sodium, potassium or lithium hydroxide, and a metal carbonate such as sodium, potassium or lithium carbonate.

1. A particulate precursor laundry detergent composition which is substantially free of water and which is substantially completely soluble in alkaline cold water to form a cleaning solution said composition comprising:
(a) about 2 to about 20 weight percent of an inorganic hydroxide compound; (b) about 1 to about 20 weight percent of metal carbonate; (c) about 1 to about 20 weight percent of a peroxy compound; (d) about 0.1 to about 7 weight percent of a chelating agent; (e) about 0.1 to about 7 weight percent of a metasilicate, orthosilicate or mixture thereof; (f) about 0.05 to about 7 weight percent of an acrylic polymer; (g) about 0.1 to about 10 weight percent of an anionic surfactant; (h) about 0.1 to about 12 weight percent of a nonionic surfactant; and (i) about 0.1 to about 10 weight percent of an amphoteric surfactant.
