Claims25
A translucent combo bar comprising a fatty acid soap, a water soluble synthetic organic detergent and a translucency enhancing amount of a lower alkanol mono-amine.
The combo bar of claim further comprising a grit decreasing amount of a polyhydrophilic compound.
A translucent combo bar containing soap and a water soluble synthetic detergent comprising:
- (a) a fatty acid soap, about 40% to about 95%;
- (b) the water soluble synthetic organic detergent, about 1 to 25%;
- (c) a lower alkanol mono-amine, about 1% to about 10%;
- (d) an alkyl-aryl polyoxyalkylene carboxylic acid of formula:
- ##STR10## wherein R is an aryl, alkyl-aryl or alkyl radical, R.sub.1 through R.sub.6 are each hydrogen or a lower alkyl radical and may be the same or different, m is 1 to 3 and n is 1 to 9, about 0% to 10%;
- (e) a polyhydrophilic compound 0 to 10%;
- (f) water, about 5 to 25%.
A method of enhancing the translucency of a combo bar containing soap and a water soluble synthetic detergent comprising incorporating in said combo bar a translucency enhancing amount of a lower alkanol mono-amine.
A premix composition comprising:
- (a) a water soluble synthetic organic detergent, about 5 to 20 parts by weight;
- (b) a lower alkanol mono-amine, about 1 to about 4 parts, by weight.
- (c) an alkyl-aryl polyoxyalkylene carboxylic acid of formula:
- ##STR12## wherein R is an aryl, alkyl-aryl or alkyl radical, R.sub.1 through R.sub.6 are each hydrogen or a lower alkyl radical and may be the same or different, m is 1 to 3 and n is 1 to 9, about 0 to 4 parts, by weight.
- (d) a polyhydric compound about 0 to 8 parts, by weight.
A process for producing a translucent combo bar containing soap and a water soluble synthetic detergent comprising:
- (a) a fatty acid soap, about 40% to about 95%;
- (b) the water soluble synthetic organic detergent, about 1 to 25%;
- (c) a lower alkanol mono-amine a translucency enhancing amount of about 10 %;
- (d) an alkyl-aryl polyoxyalkylene carboxylic acid of formula:
- ##STR13## wherein R is an aryl, alkyl-aryl or alkyl radical, R.sub.1 through R.sub.6 are each hydrogen or a lower alkyl radical and may be the same or different, m is 1 to 3 and n is to 9, about 1% to 10%;
- (e) a polyhydrophilic compound 0 to 10%;
- (f) water, about 5 to 25%;
- said process comprising:
- (i) admixing components (b) through (f);
- (ii) admixing component (a) therein;
- (iii) extruding;
- and
- (iv) stamping.
