Abstract:
A liquid dish cleaning composition which comprises approximately by weight:a) 1% to 6% of a sodium salt of a C8-C16 linear alkyl benzene sulfonate surfactant; (b) 7% to 13% of a magnesium salt of a C8-C16 linear alkyl benzene sulfonate surfactant; (c) 4% to 12% of an ammonium or sodium salt of an ethoxylated C8-C18 alkyl ether sulfate surfactant having 1 to 30 moles of ethylene oxide; (d) 8% to 14% of an ammonium or sodium salt of an ethoxylated alkyl ether sulfate surfactant having 5 to 10 moles of ethylene oxide; (e) 3% to 10% of a betaine surfactant; (f) 0.5% to 10% of at least one solubilizing agent; (g) 0.1% to 5% of a hydroxy containing organic acid which is selected from the group consisting of orthohydroxy benzoic acid, citric acid, glycolic acid, acetic acid and lactic acid and mixtures thereof; and (h) the balance being water, wherein the composition has a pH of 3 to 6 and has a viscosity of 100 to 1,000 cps at 25Â° C. using a #21 spindle at 20 rpm as measured on a Brookfield RVTDV-II viscometer.
