Abstract:
A paste-form, non-phosphate detergent which is particularly suitable for the washing of heavily soiled working apparel and which generates no troublesome foam essentially contains (A) 1 to 3% by weight sodium alkyl benzene sulfonate having linear C.sub.9-13 alkyl chains, (B) 14 to 18% by weight of a linear or 2-methyl-branched, saturated, primary C.sub.12-15 alcohol containing 2 to 4 ethylene glycol ether groups, (C) 12 to 16% by weight of a linear or 2-methyl-branched, saturated, primary C.sub.12-15 alcohol containing 6 to 8 ethylene glycol ether groups, (D) 50 to 65% by weight sodium silicate having the composition Na.sub.2 O:SiO.sub.2 =1:0.8 to 1:1.5, (E) 2 to 8% by weight, based on sodium salt, of at least one complexing agent from the group consisting of nitrilotriacetic acid and polyphosphonic acids, (F) 0.5 to 2.5% by weight water-soluble polymers having a redeposition-inhibiting effect, (G) 0 to 5% by weight other nonsurfactant and non-builder detergent constituents and (H) less than 4% by weight water. The paste can be introduced into washing machines by automatic dispensing systems.
Abstract:
An agent for disinfecting stalls based on phenol or phenol derivatives, having a disinfecting action, and a solvent which penetrates the membranes of the parasitic spores, wherein a combination of perchloroethylene and a monohydroxy alcohol having 2 to 4 carbon atoms is used as said solvent.
Abstract:
A unit consisting of a cartridge provided with a base plate displaceable under pressure is used for the program-controlled dosing of paste-form detergents. The orifice of the cartridge leads into the dispensing compartment of the washing machine, more particularly into the region of a spray jet or into a region of high turbulence of the inflowing water. The detergent paste consists of nonionic surfactants liquid at temperature below 10.degree. C. or mixtures thereof and, suspended therein, builder salts and washing alkalis having a particle size in the range from 5 to 40 .mu.m.
Abstract:
A machine washing process with process-controlled dosing of water and detergent using a paste-form, phosphate-reduced or phosphate-free detergent which is substantially free from water, organic solvents and hydrotropic compounds. The paste comprises a phase liquid at a temperature below 10.degree. C. and contains a nonionic surfactant selected from the group of polyglycolether compounds and of a solid phase dispersed therein in which the particles have a mean particle size of from 5 to 40 .mu.m and less than 5% of the particles have a particle size larger than 80 .mu.m, the solid phase comprising washing alkalis, sequestering compounds and other detergent constituents and, optionally, anionic surfactants. Under the control of a process-control computer, the paste is taken from a storage container, delivered to a mixer and diluted therein with water to at least such an extent that the formation of a gel phase is avoided. The aqueous mixture is fed to a washing machine and, unless this has already happened in the mixer, is diluted with more water to a concentration of 0.5 to 10 g/l, after which the washing process is started.
