Abstract:
1. A softening detergent composition comprising: (a) 1 to 20% by mass of clay granules comprising as a main component a smectite clay mineral represented by the following general formula (I), provided that a Na/Ca mass ratio in the granules is less than 1.0: wherein a, b, and x satisfy the formulas 0<a≦6, 0≦b≦4, 0.2≦x=12−2a−3b≦1.2; Me is at least one member of Na, K, Li, Ca, Mg and NH (b) 1.0 to 18% by mass of a nonionic surfactant; (c) 16 to 27% by mass of an anionic surfactant, provided that a salt of a fatty acid is excluded from said 16 to 27% range; (d) 10 to 35% by mass of an alkalizing agent, provided that a silicate is contained in an amount of 6% by mass or less of the softening detergent composition; and (e) 3 to 35% by mass of a crystalline aluminosilicate, wherein the composition further satisfies the following condition (ii) or both of conditions (i) and (ii):
