Definitions
- the invention relates to detergent and / or cleaning agent mixtures in solid or also liquid to pasty form, which in practical use lead to washing liquors with pH values in the neutral to alkaline range when mixed with water.
- the field of corresponding textile detergents is particularly affected, a particular objective of the teaching according to the invention being to positively influence the washing power compared to enzyme-specific soiling.
- DE-A 39 16628 relates to the use of esters of boric acid with selected monofunctional and / or polyfunctional alcohols as a thickening component in aqueous acidic surfactant solutions. Particular emphasis is placed on the alcohol component forming the boric acid ester, primary or secondary alcohols with 8 to 22 carbon atoms, which are alkoxylated with up to 20 mol of one or more alkylene oxides with 2 to 4 carbon atoms.
- the use of, for example, 0.2 to 10% by weight of such boric acid esters in acidic aqueous surfactant solutions leads to an optimization of the flow and metering behavior of these solutions in accordance with the information in the cited literature reference. At the same time, optically clear and aging-stable aqueous solutions of the type mentioned can be obtained.

- the invention relates to the use of esters of boric acid and alkoxylated fatty alcohols having a nonionic surfactant character of natural and / or synthetic origin, in addition to or instead of conventional nonionic surfactant compounds in neutral to alkaline washing and cleaning agent mixtures, the mixing of anionic and nonionic surfactant compounds contain together with other usual valuable and auxiliary substances and are especially designed for the removal of enzyme-specific impurities.

Saturated fatty alcohols and compounds with an olefinic double bond in the fatty alcohol molecule can be of particular importance.

- Distilled fatty acids commercial product "Edenor K 12-18" from the applicant (by far the predominant proportion of fatty acids in the range C12-I8 with a content of approx. 10% by weight of olefinically unsaturated acids)
- Nonionic surfactant compound as previously stated (“Dehydol LT 7")
- the recipes for the 3 detergents WM I to III used are individually the following:
- the comparison of the numerical values shows in the predominant number of the washing results to be compared with one another the increased remission values of the washing results achieved with detergent types II and III according to the invention. It is particularly interesting that this tendency is also evident in the enzyme-free detergent formulations, although in absolute terms the washing results achieved here - predictably - are lower than when enzymes are also used.
