  • compositions of the invention possess very good detergency and bactericidal properties and further­more have very low eye and skin irritancy. They are therefore particularly valuable in household sanitizing and cleaning operations where such properties are desir­able, such as in laundry detergents and hard surface cleaners.

  • Skin irritation scores are expressed in terms of Primary Irritation Index (P.I.I.) also in accordance with the standard FIFRA method. The lower the score thus obtained, the less irritating is the formulation.
  • P.I.I. Primary Irritation Index
  • formulations A, C and D prepared in accordance with the invention are markedly superior in detergency properties, as determined in both EMPA and Krefeld detergency test, to any of comparative formulations L, M and N.

  • the liquid laundry detergent formulations of the invention are formulated as concentrates. In use the concentrate is added to the wash water in such amounts as to provide good cleaning and sanitization. It has been found that about 1/2 cup (about 4 ounces) of concen­trate per wash load (or about 4 ounces per 16 gallons), which provides a use dilution of around 1:500, is ade­quate to achieve such purposes.
