DETERGENT COMPOUNDS AND COMPOSITIONS

摘要

Detergent compounds of the formula wherein R1 is alkyl or substituted alkyl containing from about 6 to 18 carbon atoms and mixtures thereof; R2 is alkyl containing from about 8 to 18 carbon atoms and mixtures thereof or alkyl amido of the formula wherein R3 is alkyl containing from about 8 to 18 carbon atoms; Z is H or lower alkyl containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms; and Y is alkylene containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms; A1 and A2 are the same or different and are -[-CH2CH2-COOX]n -[-CH2-COOX]n -[-CH2CHOH-CH2SO3X]n or -[-CH2-CHOH-CH2-OPO3X]n wherein X is a water soluble cation and n is 1 or 2 with the proviso that if only one of A1 and A2 are selected from the anionic salt moieties above, the other is alkyl or hydroxyalkyl with 1-4 C atoms. Detergent compositions comprise, as about 1-50% by weight of the total, at least one detergent compound as specified above.
