• the polymer premix is mixed with a perfume composition in a 1:1 ratio. This polymer—perfume mix is than added to a fabric enhancer composition.
• the resulting homogenous, viscous and sticky material is held at 60° for ⁇ 2 hours before starting the agglomeration process.
• a mixture comprising 40% of the viscous, sticky sample and 60% of melted TAE80 is formed by combining and mixing with an Ultra-Turrax T25 Basic equipment (from IKA) for 5 to 10 minutes.
• 1 part of the TAE80/sticky sample is very slowly added to 0.6 parts of light soda ash using a Braun kitchen robot to form agglomerates.
• the resulting agglomerates are then used in a powder detergent.
