Definitions

  • the invention is in the field of shaped detergents and relates to tablets with surfactants, builders and disintegrants which additionally contain cationic surfactants as additives.
  • Detergents are available on the market that not only clean the laundry, but also give it a special soft feel.
  • Such preparations which are often referred to as soft detergents, generally contain cationic surfactants of the tetraalkylammonium compound type, usually in combination with layered silicates, as finishing agents. Since the detergents are usually based on anionic surfactants, undesirable salt formation easily occurs in the presence of cationic surfactants, which leads to the deactivation of some of the detergent-active components and also to deposits on the fibers. Accordingly, there is a need for the manufacturer of soft detergents to maintain a balance and to use only as much cationic surfactant in the formulation as is possible without significant salt formation. As a rule, this amount is still less than 0.5% by weight. With such low application concentrations, it is of course immediately clear why the soft detergents on the market have so far been unsuccessful and have not been able to displace conventional liquid fabric softeners that are only added in the rinse cycle, i.e. after the actual laundry has been
