PROCESS FOR PRODUCING A PARTICULATE LAUNDRY ADDITIVE COMPOSITION FOR PERFUME DELIVERY

摘要

The invention provides a process for producing a particulate laundry additive composition. More particularly, the process produces a particulate laundry additive for perfume delivery in laundry detergent compositions, especially those in the form of granules or agglomerates. The process includes mixing a porous carrier material, typically containing perfume, and an encapsulating material, typically a carbohydrate material, to form agglomerates or an extrudate which is then sized into particles for incorporation into a detergent product. The process may be employed to produce particulate additive compositions which may be used in fabric softening and diswhashing as well as laundry detergent compositions.
