Abstract
A light duty liquid detergent with desirable cleansing properties and mildness to the human skin comprising five essential surfactants: a water soluble nonionic surfactant, a C.sub.8-18 ethoxylated alkyl ether sulfate anionic surfactant, a C.sub.10-20 paraffin sodium sulfonate surfactant, an alkyl sulfate surfactant, and a betaine surfactant.
Claims6
A clear light duty liquid cleaning composition which consisting essentially of approximately by weight:
- (a) 12% to 15% of an alkali metal salt of a C.sub.12-18 paraffin sulfonate;
- (b) 3% and 5% of an alkali metal salt of a C.sub.8-18 ethoxylated alkyl ether sulfate;
- (c) 3% to 5% of a betaine surfactant;
- (d) 11% to 12% of a nonionic surfactant;
- (e) 0to 12% of at least one solubilizing agent;
- (f) 2% to 5% of an ammonium salt of an alkyl sulfate surfactant;
- (g) 0 to 10% of a supplemental solubilizing agent;
- and
- (h) the balance being water, said composition having a minimum foam height of 150 mls after 55 rotations at 40.degree. C. as measured by a foam volume test using 0.75 grams of said composition per liter of water having a hardness of 300 ppm and 10 grams of corn oil per liter of said water having said hardness of 300 ppm;
- and wherein said composition does not contain any choline or more than 0.25 wt. % of a perfume and is not a microemulsion.
