Abstract
Biodegradable detergent compositions comprising 1,3-propanediol are provided, and the 1,3-propanediol in the composition is biologically derived. The compositions exhibit a lower anthropogenic CO2 emission profile. Also provided are biodegradable detergent compositions comprising an ester of 1,3-propanediol. In these compositions, the ester can have at least 3% biobased carbon.
Claims20
A detergent composition comprising an ester of 1,3-propanediol, wherein the composition is biodegradable, wherein the ester is a monomer and comprises at least 3% biobased carbon, and wherein said composition has a lower anthropogenic CO2 emission profile as compared to a biodegradable composition comprising an ester of 1,3-propanediol with a bio-based carbon content of 0%.
A detergent composition comprising 1,3-propanediol, wherein the 1,3-propanediol is biologically derived, wherein the composition is biodegradable and has a lower anthropogenic CO2 emission profile as compared to a biodegradable composition comprising 1,3-propanediol with a bio-based carbon content of 0%, and wherein the 1,3-propanediol is a monomer, and comprises at least 3% biobased carbon.
