Abstract
Disclosed are dry particulate compositions containing an anionic sulfonate or sulfate surfactant, fatty mono- or di-ethanolamide, alcohol, sugar and maltodextrin. The dry compositions readily disperse in water to form formulations which can form voluminous, stable, environmentally benign foams useful, for instance, in marking outdoor areas.
Claims18

- (a) 20 to 60 wt. % of at least one anionic surfactant;
- (b) 1 to 10 wt. % of at least one compound selected from the group consisting of fatty acid monoethanolamides and fatty acid diethanolamides;
- (c) 0.5 to 5 wt. % of at least one alcohol containing 8 to 18 carbon atoms;
