Abstract
Described are encapsulated time-release cleaning agents, comprising active agents that, when combined with an aqueous phase, have slight delay release, moderate delay release, and/or extended delay release. The invention also relates to the manufacture and use of such compositions.
Claims9
A cleaning composition, comprising:
- at least two particles, each particle comprising at least one active agent, wherein the at least two particles are adapted to release active agent at different delay release times when the cleaning composition is combined with an aqueous phase, and said particles being encapsulated with water soluble cellulose coating,
- and wherein at least one particle i) comprises at least one surfactant, and ii) has a release time providing a slight delay upon combining with the aqueous phase.
