Abstract
Cogranulates of alkalimetal tripolyphosphates and alkalimetal silicates are known as basic ingredients for machine dishwashing compositions. They can suffer from dispensability problems, and by inclusion in the cogranulates of a hydrophobing substance, such as calcium stearate, the dispensability can be improved.
Claims4
Cogranulates of alkalimetal tripolyphosphates and alkalimetal silicates with improved dispensability, said cogranulates comprising from 5 to 60 percent by weight of the alkalimetal tripolyphosphates, from 95 to 40 percent by weight of the alkalimetal silicates, and from 0.05 to 5 percent by weight of a hydrophobing substance, selected from the group consisting of paraffins, silicones, insoluble fatty acid salts and zeolites.
