Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9403580A1] Non-aqueous liquid landry detergent compositions which contain a condensed phosphate builder e.g. sodium tripolyphosphate, are rendered more easily dispersed during use, particularly when dispensed using a dosing means, by including a small quantity of a water soluble salt of a hydroxycarboxylic, especially citric or tartaric, acid especially an ammonium, substituted ammonium or alkali metal salt. The compositions include a surfactant, desirably a non-ionic surfactant and may include a bleach e.g. sodium perborate or percarbonate. Desirably a polyoxyalkylene glycol, especially ethylene glycol, having a molecular weight of 100 to 1500 D is also included. The solids of the composition are preferably present as finely divided e.g. less thant 10 mu m average size, particles in the liquid components.
