Abstract
Aqueous, liquid, multiphase, surfactant-containing cleaning composition having at least two continuous phases, having at least one lower aqueous phase I and an upper aqueous phase II immiscible with the lower phase I and which can be temporarily converted into an emulsion by shaking, wherein the composition contains one or more hydrophobic components and up to about 5% by weight of sodium hexametaphosphate. The compositions are useful as hard surface cleaners.
Claims80
An aqueous, liquid, multiphase, surfactant-containing cleaning composition having at least two continuous phases, which comprises at least one lower aqueous phase I and an upper aqueous phase II immiscible with the lower phase I and which can be temporarily converted into an emulsion by shaking, wherein the composition comprises one or more hydrophobic components and more than 0% up to about 5% by weight of sodium hexametaphosphate.
An aqueous, liquid, multiphase, surfactant-containing cleaning composition having at least two continuous phases, which comprises at least one lower aqueous phase I and an upper aqueous phase II immiscible with the lower phase I and which can be temporarily converted into an emulsion by shaking, wherein the composition comprises 0.1% to 20% by weight of one or more hydrophobic dialkyl ethers containing identical or different C4-14 alkyl groups.
A method of cleaning a hard surface comprising shaking an aqueous, liquid, multiphase, surfactant-containing cleaning composition having at least two continuous phases, which comprises at least one lower aqueous phase I and an upper aqueous phase II immiscible with the lower phase I and which can be temporarily converted into an emulsion by shaking, wherein the composition comprises one or more hydrophobic components, to form a temporary emulsion, and applying an cleaning-effective amount of said composition to the hard surface.
