  • Machine dishwashing detergents today have to meet a wide variety of requirements. Among other things, they should be as environmentally friendly and easy to dose and have a good cleaning performance. So the dishes after machine cleaning should not only be completely free of food particles, but also, for example, have no whitish, based on water hardness or other mineral salts stains that come from lack of wetting agent from dried water droplets.
  • Modern automatic dishwashing detergents meet these requirements by integrating cleansing, caring, water-softening and clear-rinsing active ingredients and are known to the consumer, for example, as “2in1" or "3in1" dishwashing detergents.
  • As essential for the cleaning as for the rinse aid success constituent intended for the private consumer dishwasher automatic dishwashing contain builders. On the one hand, these builders increase the alkalinity of the cleaning liquor, whereby fats and oils are emulsified and saponified with increasing alkalinity, and on the other hand reduce the water hardness of the cleaning liquor by complexing the calcium ions contained in the aqueous liquor. In the past, in particular alkali metal phosphates were used for this purpose.
