| abstract |
Powder compositions, which can be compacted into strong, water-dispersable tablets, such as laundry detergent tablets or bath bombs, are made by blending solid, particulate, preferably desalted, amphoteric surfactant, e.g. dried laurylamidopropyl betaine, with water-soluble and/or water-swellable inorganic and/or polymer particles, such as bentonite. A typical laundry tablet comprises a solid, non-hygroscopic, amidopropyl betaine, non-ionic surfactant, bentonite, builders and wash adjuvants. |
