Definitions

  • the present invention relates to synthetic laundry bar compositions having improved physical properties.
  • laundry detergent bars comprising synthetic organic surfactants and detergency builders are used in the laundering of clothes.
  • Synthetic laundry bars typically comprise a synthetic anionic surfactant such as the alkali metal salt of an alkyl benzene sulfonic acid or alkali metal salt of an alkyl sulfate and one or more alkaline builders such as alkali metal polyphosphates, carbonates or silicates.
  • brittleness One common problem with a bar's physical property is brittleness. Without being limited by theory, it is believed that the addition of certain surfactants, especially alkyl sulfate. causes brittleness. Furthermore, the addition of bleach is thought to cause brittleness. When bars are too brittle, the bars break and/or crumble, especially when the bars are being transported from one location to another. The broken bars are undesirable to consumers and leads to waste of the product. Aesthetically, consumers prefer to purchase bars that are not broken. In addition, it is not preferable to have bars break into pieces while a consumer is handling the bar. It has now been found that a synthetic laundry bar composition comprising synthetic surfactant and no more than about 10% soap delivers significant improvement in the physical properties of the bar by minimizing bar brittleness, with the addition of low levels of dihydric alcohol, especially propylene glycol.
  • Such a detergent composition satisfies the need for a laundry bar composition with improved physical properties by minimizing bar brittleness.
