Purpose liquid cleaning/micro emulsion compositions comprising triethanol amine and mixture of partially esterified fully esterified and non-esterified polyhydric alcohols

A microemulsion composition comprising:

• (a) 0.1 wt. % to 5 wt. % of a mixture of ##STR7## wherein w equals one to four, and B is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and a group represented by:
• ##STR8## wherein R is selected from the group consisting of alkyl group having 6 to 22 carbon atoms, and alkenyl groups having 6 to 22 carbon atoms, wherein at least one of the B groups is represented by said ##STR9## R' is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and methyl groups;
• x, y and z have a value between 0 and 60, provided the (x+y+z) equals 2 to 100, wherein in Formula (I) the weight ratio of monoether/diester/triester is 40 to 90/5 to 35/1 to 20, wherein the weight ratio of Formula (I) and Formula (II) is a value between 3 and 0.02;
• (b) 0.5 wt. % to 2.5 wt. % of a triethanol amine;
• (c) 0.1 wt. % to 10 wt. % of an anionic surfactant which contains sulfate or sulfonate groups;
• (d) 0.5 wt. % to 15 wt. % of a glycol ether cosurfactant;
• (e) 0.4 wt. % to 10 wt. % of a water insoluble hydrocarbon, essential oil or a perfume;
• (f) 1% to 8% of an ethoxylated/propoxylated nonionic having the formula selected from the group consisting of ##STR10## wherein R is a branched chain alkyl group having about 10 to about 16 carbon atoms, and x and y are independently numbered from 1 to 20;
• and
• (g) the balance being water.
