Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention relates to unit dose detergent compositions comprising a water-soluble container formed from a water-soluble film material enclosing a liquid composition with a relatively high water content. In one embodiment, the unit dose detergent composition comprises a water-soluble container formed from a water-soluble film material enclosing a liquid composition, wherein the liquid composition comprises (a) at least one surfactant, (b) at least one humectant selected from the group consisting of polyols having 3 to 9 carbon atoms, and (c) about 15 wt % to about 35 wt % of water.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A unit dose detergent composition, comprising: a water-soluble container formed from a water-soluble film material enclosing a liquid composition, wherein the liquid composition comprises: at least one alkyl ether sulfate (AES), at least one humectant selected from the group consisting of heptylene glycol, octylene glycol, and mixtures therefor, and about 15 wt % to about 35 wt % of water, and wherein the liquid composition comprises about 10 wt % to about 40 wt % of the one or more humectants. 2. The unit dose detergent composition according to claim 1 , wherein the liquid composition comprises about 5 wt % to about 25 wt % of the at least one alkyl ether sulfate (AES). 3. The unit dose detergent composition according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one alkyl ether sulfate (AES) is sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES). 4. The unit dose detergent composition according to claim 1 , wherein the water-soluble film material is selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), film forming cellulosic polymer, poly acrylic acid, polyacrylamide, polyanhydride, polysaccharide, and a mixture thereof. 5. The unit dose detergent composition according to any of claim 1 , wherein the water-soluble film material is polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). 6. The unit dose detergent composition according to claim 1 , wherein the liquid composition comprises about 25 wt % to about 35 wt % of water. 7. The unit dose detergent composition according to claim 1 , wherein the liquid composition comprises about 25 wt % of water. 8. The unit dose detergent composition according to claim 1 , wherein the liquid composition comprises about 30 wt % of water. 9. A unit dose detergent composition, comprising: a water-soluble container formed from a water-soluble film material enclosing a liquid composition, wherein the liquid composition comprises: about 15 wt % to about 30 wt % of at least one anionic surfactant and about 15 wt % to about 30 wt % of at least one nonionic surfactant, at least one humectant selected from the group consisting of butylene glycol, pentylene glycol, hexylene glycol, heptylene glycol, octylene glycol, 2-methyl-1,3-propanediol, xylitol, sorbitol, mannitol, erythritol, dulcitol, inositol, adonitol, and mixtures thereof, and about 25 wt % to about 35 wt % of water, and wherein the liquid composition comprises about 10 wt % to about 40 wt % of the one or more humectants, and wherein the at least one humectant comprises heptylene glycol, octylene glycol, or a combination thereof. 10. The unit dose detergent composition according to claim 1 , wherein the liquid composition comprises about 30 wt % to about 35 wt % of water.
