Ring polysulfonated alkylphenoxy alkylols as detergents

摘要

Detergent active materials which are effective in the absence of phosphate builders comprise ring polysulfonated alkylphenoxy alkylols of the formula: <IMAGE> in which R is linear alkyl of 16 to 22 carbon atoms, R'' is alkylene of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, X is H or a water-soluble salt-forming cation, and m is an integer of 1 to 10.
