摘要:
A method for measuring soil in a wash liquor or other soil-containing liquid medium, the method comprising: a) a soil sensing step wherein the soil-containing liquid medium is contacted with a plurality of fuzzy-correlated soil-sensing means, each responsive to a distinct physico-chemical soil characteristic and providing one or more soil parameter measurements corresponding thereto; b) a data processing step wherein the soil parameter measurements for each sensing means are entered as input data into a model algorithm defined on the basis of an algorithm dataset comprising experimental or consumer-generated soil parameter and soil concentration information and which functions to generate predicted soil data of enhanced confidence level; and c) a communication step wherein one or more signals dependent upon the predicted soil data is issued to an output device, data store, user interface, data processor, or an appliance director or module. The invention also relates to methods for measuring the degree of soiling of a soiled article, and methods for cleaning a soiled article in a wash liquor or other liquid medium.
摘要:
A detergent tablet comprises: (a) a compressed solid body portion having at least one mold in the compressed body portion; and (b) a non-compressed, gelatinous portion integrally mounted in the mold of the compressed body portion, wherein the gelatinous portion comprising a thickening system and at least one detergent active. The thickening system preferably includes a non-aqueous diluent and a gelling agent and the detergent active is preferably selected from the group consisting of enzymes, surfactants, effervescing agents, bleaching agents, silver care agents, builders;, and mixtures thereof.

A detergent tablet comprising (a) a compressed solid body portion having at least one mold in said compressed solid body portion; (b) a non-compressed, gelatinous portion mounted in said at least one mold of said compressed solid body portion, said gelatinous portion comprising a thickening system and at least one detergent active; and wherein said non-compressed, gelatinous portion has either a yield strength of from about 5 to about 80 Pa, or has an average viscosity of from about 100 to about 12000 cP before said non-compressed, gelatinous portion is mounted in said at least one mold.
摘要:
Detergent tablets containing a compressed portion and a non-compressed portion comprising a perfume component. The non-compressed portion preferably dissolves at a faster rate than the compressed portion, which preferably contains a bleaching agent. A process for preparing the detergent tablet is also disclosed.
