Abstract:
1. A liquid detergent comprising: a) from about 5% to about 20% by weight thereof of a surfactant system wherein the surfactant system comprises: i) an alkoxylated anionic surfactant having and alkoxylation degree of from 0.20 to 1.75 and a level of branching from about 5% to about 40%; and ii) an amine oxide surfactant, wherein the alkoxylated anionic to amine oxide surfactant weight ratio is from about 1:1 to about 8.5:1; b) a viscosity modifier selected from the group consisting of electrolytes, organic solvents and mixtures thereof; wherein the detergent is free of an external structurant selected from the group consisting of non-polymeric hydroxyl-containing materials, microfibrillated celluloses, polyacrylates, polysaccharides, polysaccharide derivatives and mixtures thereof, and wherein the detergent at 20° C. has a pouring viscosity of from about 2500 mPa s to about 6000 mPa s and a ratio of medium to high shear viscosity of from about 2 to about 1.
