Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0078914A1] Detergent particles formed from irregular colour, size and shape individual particulate components. At least two particulate components, a first component of a first colour and a second component of a second colour, the first and second components are adhered to one another, the mean particle size of at least the first or second particulate component being no more than 50% of the mean particle size of the detergent particle to give particles of desirable colour. In addition, a detergent particle having sphericity index no greater than 1.7 and/or narrow particle size distribution from particulates where one has a sphericity index greater than 1.7 or at least one of the first and second particulate components has a span of at least 2. The detergent particles are produced substantially in the absence of pressure compaction. Also provided is a method for making the detergent particles described and detergent compositions comprising these detergent particles.
