Surface active mixtures contain as anionic tensides a) a mixture of inherently stable ether sulphonates (A) consisting wholly or mainly of compounds of formulae (I) and/or (II) or of their alkaline, alkaline earth, aluminium and ammonium salts, where y and z are equal to 0 or to numbers between 1 and 18, p is equal to 0, 1 or 2 and the sum (y + z + p) is a number between 12 and 18, x is equal to 0 or a whole number up to 30 and n is a number between 2 and 4, and b) at least one other compound (B) chosen from the group consisting of the ether sulphates of fatty alcohols, sulphates of fatty alcohols, ether carboxylic acids, esters of sulphosuccinic acid, acylsarcosides, acyltaurides, acylisethionates, alpha -olefin sulphonates and secondary alkyl sulphonates. These mixtures are well tolerated by the skin and possess good detergency and foaming power. |
