2), because the Krafft's point of MES self is higher, caused the dissolution in low temperature of these two kinds of MES particles poor.
3) technique process complexity, production efficiency is lower, and production capacity is subject to larger restriction.
Therefore, how developing that a kind of technique is simple, the preparation method of energy-conserving and environment-protective, powdery MES product that production efficiency high and low temperature solvability is good, MES is applied in washing powder, is a difficult problem urgently to be resolved hurrily.
