Encapsulated cleaning composition

A method of forming an encapsulated cleaning composition comprising a core cleaning composition comprising an ionic liquid, water present in an amount of from 10 to 50 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the core cleaning composition, and at least one of a chelant, an enzyme, and a surfactant;

• and a water-soluble film disposed about the core cleaning composition;
• wherein the water-soluble film has a disintegration time of less than 90 seconds as determined at 40° C. using distilled water according to MSTM 205 when disposed about the core cleaning composition;
• and wherein the water-soluble film remains stable for 6 months at 25° C. when disposed about the core cleaning composition, said method comprising the steps of:
• providing the core cleaning composition;
• and
• disposing the water-soluble film about the core cleaning composition.

An encapsulated cleaning composition comprising:

• A. a core cleaning composition comprising:
• an ionic liquid,
• water present in an amount of from 10 to 20 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of said core cleaning composition,
• a chelant, and
• two or more enzymes;
• and
• B. a water-soluble film disposed about said core cleaning composition;
• wherein said water-soluble film has a disintegration time of less than 90 seconds as determined at 40° C. using distilled water according to MSTM 205 when disposed about said core cleaning composition;
• and
• wherein said water-soluble film remains stable for 6 months at 25° C. when disposed about said core cleaning composition.
