Improved flexibility in incorporation of soluble salts in structured aqueous liquid detergents is provided by incorporating a surfactant with a salting-out resistance greater than or equal to 6.4 and which has an average alkyl chain length greater than 6 C-atoms provided that the liquid yields substantially no clear liquid active rich layer upon centrifuging at 750G for 20 hours at 25 DEG C. The salting-out resistance is the minimum amount in grams equivalent of trisodium nitrilotriacetate added to 1 litre of a 5% aqueous solution of the surfactant at room temperature, to achieve phase separation as evidenced by cloudiness. |
