Abstract:
Provided are an internal olefin sulfonate composition which is capable of sufficiently enhancing foamability, foam dissipation property free from a slimy feeling during rinsing, and a feel after cleansing and subsequent drying, and a cleansing composition containing the same. The internal olefin sulfonate composition comprises (A) an internal olefin sulfonate having 16 carbon atoms and (B) an internal olefin sulfonate having 12 carbon atoms, in which a content mass ratio of the component (A) to the component (B), (A/B), is from 10/90 to 90/10.
Abstract:
In a process of making a liquid cleaning composition, adding a gel breaker upstream of an anionic surfactant addition in the recirculatory loop of a recirculatory batch processor mitigates the viscous hexagonal phase whilst providing maximum flexibility in formulating various ingredients in the composition.
Abstract:

Abstract:
Unsaturated fatty alcohol alkoxylates, processes for making them, and methods of using them are disclosed. In one aspect, a monounsaturated fatty alcohol alkoxylate is made by reducing a metathesis-derived monounsaturated alkyl ester, followed by alkoxylation of the resulting monounsaturated alcohol. Microscopy reveals that the monounsaturated alkoxylates have isotropic and lamellar phases over a wider range of actives levels compared with their saturated analogs. This attribute expands formulating latitude for many end-use applications. The unsaturated fatty alcohol alkoxylates are valuable in, for example, agricultural solvents, nonionic emulsifiers for agricultural compositions, hard surface cleaners, laundry detergents, specialty foams, additives or surfactants for paints or coatings, and surfactant compositions for enhanced oil recovery.
