Description: SOIL RELEASE POLYMERS WITH FLUORESCENT WHITENING PROPERTIES FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to substituted or unsubstituted terephthalate ester compounds having an oligomeric or polymeric backbone incorporating particular substituted or unsubstituted polyoxyethylene moieties and having at least one fluorescent whitening end capping or fluorescent whitening pendant group. The present invention also relates to laundry cleaning compositions comprising soil release polymers of the present invention. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Products used in laundering operations contain a number of ingredients which provide certain basic benefits. For example, laundry cleaning products are formulated with detergent surfactant systems to remove a variety of soils from clothes during washing. These laundry products can also include ingredients which provide through-the-wash fabric conditioning benefits such as softening and anti-static performance. More typically, softening and anti-static benefits are provided by other fabric treatment products. These and other fabric products are added as part of the rinse cycle or else in the dryer to provide the conditioning benefit. In addition to standard cleaning, softening and anti-static benefits, laundry detergent and fabric conditioning products can also impart other desirable properties. Of these, conferring desirable soil release and whitening properties to fabrics woven from polyester fiber, or in the case of whitening agents, also to natural fibers, have been the focus of research for many years. These target synthetic fabrics are mostly co-polymers of ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid, and are sold under a number of trade names, e.g. Cacron, Fortrel, Kodel and Blue C Polyester. The hydrophobic character of polyester fabrics makes their laundering difficult, particularly as regards oily soil and oily stains. The oily soil or stain preferentially "wets" the fabric. As a result, the oily soil or stain is difficult to remove in an aqueous laundering process. To overcome this difficulty in removing such stains and soil, polyesters containing random ethylene terephthalate/polyethylene glycol (PEG) terephthalate units (e.g. MILASE T), have been used as soil release compounds in laundry detergent products. Although not straightforward, the development of improved soil release polymers having superior performance has produced agents that will efficiently absorb onto a given substrate (e.g. fabric) from a variety of application matrices (e.g. laundn liquor). The ability to readily form a deposited layer upon a fabric surface and to remain affixed long after the application process has ended is a desirable quality of both soil release agents as vsell as other laundry additives, in particular fluorescent whitening agents. The operation of brightening commercial fabrics is one of the highest value-added treatments of a laundry detergent aside from the primary role of soil removal from the fabric itself. With the aid of fluorescent whitening agents (FWA's). also referred to as optical brighteners. optical compensation of the yellow cast that develops on substrates such as fabric can be achieved. The yellow cast is produced by the absorption of short-wavelength light (violet-to-blue). With fluorescent whitening agents this lost light is in part replaced, thus a complete white is attained. This additional visible light is produced by the brightener by means of fluorescence. Optical whitening agents absorb the invisible ultraviolet portion of the daylight spectrum and convert this energy into the longer- wavelength visible position of the spectra. Fluorescent whitening, therefore, is based on the addition of light, whereas the older methods such as "blueing" is achieved by subtraction of light by the addition of blue or blue-violet dyes to textiles. One problem encountered with common fluorescent whitening agents in laundry detergent applications is their lack of inherent affinity for hydrophobic fabric or soiled cotton. Typically comprised of small highly fluorescent molecules, optical brightners are primarily modified to promote increased water solubility of the core organic structure. Because any molecular substituent added to these small, highly conjugated systems may upset the fluorescence emission profile. structural changes are made with due caution. In addition, highly planar molecules inherently clump, layer and stack instead of spreading out to form a uniform layer. Surprisingly, the molecules of the present invention allow the formulator to address this problem of low fabric affinity. By combining fluorescent whitening agents into the structure of the soil release polymers, both the desirable properties of soil release activity and optical brightening can be introduced simultaneously. It is well known to those skilled in the art that the properties which produce successful soil release agents (SRA's) are a delicate balance of several important properties. For example, the backbone of the SRA is key to providing affinity for the targeted fabric surface. When preparing molecules having soil release properties, a backbone that comprises many of the identical elements of the target fabric is not all that is necessary to produce a superior product. Manipulation of the polymer backbone structure as well as the end capping units has led to advances in soil release polymer technology. .S.

Scheibel. et alia, issued November 6. 1990: U.S. Patent 5.041.230: Borcher. Sr.. et alia, issued August 20. 1991 : and U.S. Patent 5.415.807: Gosselink. et alia, issued May 16. 1995: all incorporated herein by reference, describe soil release polymers having a wide range of utility and applications. Surprisingly, the present invention allows the formulator to combine fluorescent whitening agents with known soil release polymer technology, such as that described hereinabove. to obtain compounds that contain the desired properties of both molecules. The choice of suitable end capping unit has been a matter of close technical scrutiny by those practicing the art of soil release polymer technology. The selection of proper end capping group lends important properties to the molecule, for example, physical state (solid or liquid), solubility properties, and compatibility with adjunct materials. Additionally, formulatability (liquid or granular), hot or cold water usage are just a few of the modes in which the SRA must have compatibility. The present invention combines fluorescent whitening agents and soil release polymers in a manner that is very practical from a formulator s view point. The soil release agents are chosen for their desirable properties and then fluorescent whitening agents are attached to the molecular chain as end-capping units. The formulator may choose to terminate one or both ends of the molecule with a fluorescent end-capping unit. Alternatively, the polymer may comprise a pendant fluorescent whitening unit and have non-fluorescent whitening units as main polymer backbone end caps. In another embodiment, the formulator may have fluorescent units terminating only one or several branching chains. In addition, when the soil release polymer backbone is comprised of units that produce branching or "star" polymers, these additional "ends" may be capped with any proportion of fluorescent groups that is necessary to produce the desired properties of soil release and fluorescent whitening. Because the fluorescent whitening units are attached as endcapping groups to the supporting SRA backbone their addition to the molecule is not accomplished in a hapless or "random" manner. Although many SRA's are assembled via "random polymerization", attachment of the fluorescent whitening agent is preferably accomplished in a controlled manner in order to assure the ability to balance the level of each functionality (SRA and FWA) in the molecule. Surprisingly, the present invention allows the formulator to incorporate along with the fluorescent whitening end-capping units, other suitable end-capping units (e.g. modified lsethionate. sulfoaryl) that together prov ide for a complete delivery of both soil release and fluorescent whitening properties. The prior art discloses certain hybrids of soil release polymers and fluorescent whitening agents, in particular U.S. Patent 5.039.782. Langer. et alia. issued August 1 . 1991 : U.S. Patent 5.082.578. Langer. et alia, issued January 21. 1992 and U.S. Patent 5.164.100. Langer et alia, issued November 17. 1992. These patent publications disclose soil release agents that comprise fluorescence whitening agents randomly incorporated directly into the main chain of the backbone portion of the respective molecules. The lack of control by which these agents are introduced into the framework of the molecule limits the utility of the method. Random incorporation of fluorescent whitening agents into SRA's may not be the most efficient method of delivery on a per weight basis. The random placement of FWA units may cause polymer backbone properties that aie undesirable and also non-reproducible. Thirdly, FWA groups that are proximal to one another may have the opportunity to quench one another. It is an object of the present invention to provide soil release properties and fluorescent whitening into the same molecules in a direct and controlled way. It is an object of the present invention to provide soil release and fluorescent whitening properties into the same molecule in a manner that allows the formulator to chose a wide range of fluorescent whitening groups for use in the present invention. It is a further object of the present invention to provide soil release polymers that have optionally one or more fluorescent whitening moieties incorporated into the molecule. It is still further an object of the present invention to provide a laundry detergent composition comprising at least 0.01% of a detersive surfactant and at least 0.01% of a fluorescent whitening soil release polymer. It is an object of the present invention to provide fluorescent whitening soil release polymers that can be formulated into either solid (bar), granular or liquid laundry detergent compositions.

For the purposes of the present invention substituted 1.2-phenyiene. 1.3- phenylene. and 1.4-phenylene units are defined as moieties having essentially the formula: wherein one or more R 7 moiety, can be present on any one aromatic ring, said R 7 moiety comprises a single functional group, a branching chain or a crosslinking chain. For the purposes of the present invention unsubstituted naphthalene moieties are defined as naphthalene units having no other substitutions other than the bonds linking these units to the polymer chain backbone. Examples of unsubstituted naphthalenes suitable for the present invention include compounds having essentially the formula: For the purposes of the present invention substituted naphthalene moieties are defined as naphthalene units having one or more substitutions. For example structures having the formula are examples of naphthalene units having one or more substitutions. The preferred naphthalene moieties of the present invention comprise naphthalene rings having a single substitution, for example, naphthalene rings incorporated into the main chain of the polymer backbone and having one additional moiety such as hydroxyl or -SO3~M * . or one branching chain or one crosslinking chain. Preferably R 1 is 1 ,4-phenylene. 2.6-naphthalene. 1.5 -naphthalene, substituted 1.3 -phenylene. and substituted 2.6-naphthalene. More preferred R 1 are 1.4-phenylene and substituted 1.3 -phenylene. most preferred is 1.4-phenylene. The R 1 moieties can be substituted with various moieties, for example R 7 is -OH. - CO2H. -SO3-MX crosslinking units of the formula -(A-R J -A-R 2 ) U -, -(A-R 1 - A-R 2 ) U A-. -(A-R! -A-R3) V -, -(A-R^A-R 3 )^-, -(A-R Ϊ -A-R^-, and -(A- R 1 -A-R5) W A-. For the purposes of the present invention branching units are defined as backbone-like chains comprising the units A, R l , R 2 , R 3 . and R 5 whereby these branching units terminate in a suitable non-hydrolyzable fluorescent whitening end capping group or in a suitable non-hydrolyzable non-fluorescent whitening end capping group. For the purposes of the present invention the preferred branching units comprise the basic branching moieties having the formula -(A-R'-A- R ) u (Cap), -(A-R'-A-R 2 ) u A(Cap), -(A-R»-A-R 3 ) v (Cap), -(A-R'-A-R 3 ) v A(Cap). - (A-R'-A-R 5 ) w (Cap), and -(A-R l -A-R 5 ) w A(Cap) wherein the indices u. v and w indicate the number of non-end capping units present. For example, a branching moiety having the formula -(A-R'-A-R 2 )2(Cap) wherein A is carboxy, R 1 is 1.4- phenylene and R 2 is ethyleneoxy, has the structure Typically the branching chains according to the present invention are comprised entirely of one type of basic branching unit and a suitable non- hydrolyzable capping moiety, for example, a branching chain having the structure -(A-R l -A-R 3 ) v (Cap). would only comprise -(A-R'-A-R 3 )- units, however, branching chains can also comprise a mixture of basic branching units, an example of which is a branching chain having the structure -( A-R'-A-R 5 ) W (A-R'-A- R 3 \(Cap). Mixed branching units of this type are more suitable for use in soil release polymers of the present invention having a "star" polymer branching. Star polymers are defined, for the purposes of the present invention, as soil release polymers according to the present invention that comprise moieties or other units in the polymer backbone that promote the formation of chain branching as well as soil release polymers that otherwise comprise multiple branching units. The length of the branching unit when combined with the longest, continuous poπion of the polymer backbone may in some cases have a length that is equal to the length of the main continuous substituted or unsubstituted terephthalate polymer backbone but preferably the branching moiety is moderate in length, for example, the value of the indices u, v. and w of the branching unit are less than about 22. more preferably the branching moiety is shoπ in length, the value of the indices u. v, and w are less than about 6. The branching units are terminated with a non-hydrolyzable end capping unit. The non-hydrolyzable end capping unit comprises either a non-fluorescent whitening end capping unit or a fluorescent whitening end-capping unit according to the present invention. The substituted R 1 moieties additionally comprise R 7 substituents that are crosslinking moieties having the formula -(A-R^-A-R 2 ) u -, -(A-R1 -A-R 2 ) U A-. -(A- RXA-R 3 ) V -, -(A-R ! -A-R 5 ) W -, and -(A-R ι -A-R 5 ) W A- that comprise the basic crosslinking units -(A-R 1 -A-R 2 )-. -(A-R^-A-R )A-, -(A-R^-A- R 3 )-, -(A-R 1 -A-R 3 )A-. -(A-R 1 -A-R 5 )-, and -(A-R 1 -A-R 5 )A-. For the purposes of the present invention, a crosslinking moiety may comprise a mixture of units, for example, a -(A-RΪ-A-R 5 )- unit and a -(A-RΪ-A-R 2 )- may combine to form a mixed crosslinking moiety. This may result from pre-linking these two units or from the linking of a -(A-R 1 -A-R 5 )- extending from one chain which chemically combines with a -(A-R 1 -A-R 2 )- growing or extending from a second soil release polymer chain. For the purpose of the present invention the term "crosslinking units" are defined as backbone-like chains comprising the units A. R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , and R 5 and these crosslinking units thereby connect one polymer or oligomer chain of a soil release polymer with a second polymer or oligomer chain. Crosslinking units may connect similar moieties on two separate chains. For example an R' moiety of one chain may be connected by a crosslinking unit to an R 1 moiety of a second chain. Likewise, an R 2 moiety can be connected to an R 2 moiety of a second chain. However, crosslinking can occur between two separate moieties, for example, an R 1 unit of one chain can be crosslinked to an R 2 . R 3 or R 5 unit of a second soil release polymer chain. For the purposes of the present invention the preferred crosslinking units are comprised of basic crosslinking moieties having the formula -( A-R A-R ) U -. -(A-R'-A-R 2 -A) u -. -( A-R ' -A-R 3 ) V -. -(A-R l -A-R 3 ) V A-. -(A-R>- A-R 5 ) w -. and -(A-R'-A-R 5 ) W A- wherein the indices u. v and w can have the vaiues from 1 to about 20. preferably from about 2 to about 6. For the R 1 moieties, the degree of paπial substitution with moieties other than 1.4-phenylene should be such that the soil release propeπies of the compound are not adversely affected to any great extent and that there is compatibility with the selected paπicular fluorescent whitening end capping unit. Generally the degree of partial substitution which can be tolerated will depend upon the backbone length of the compound, i.e.. longer backbones can have greater paπial substitution for 1 ,4-phenylene moieties. Usually compounds where the R 1 comprise from about 50 to 100% 1 ,4-phenylene moieties (from 0 to 50% moieties other than 1.4-phenylene) have adequate soil release activity and are compatible with any choice of one or more fluorescent whitening end capping units. The R 2 moieties are essentially ethylene, -(CH2CH 2 O) p -CH CH2- or substituted ethylene moieties of the formula — (CH0 CH 2 O) — or — (CH 2 CH(YP)— wherein the Y is C i -C4 alkyl, C 1 -C4 alkoxymethyl, -CH2θ-(CH 2 CH 2 O)p- CH2CH2-OR wherein R is C1-C4 alkyl or a crosslinking unit of the formula . crosslinking units of the formula -(A-R 1 -A-R 2 ) u -, -(A-R^A-R^-A-, -(A-R Ϊ -A- R 3 )v-, -(A-R 1 -A-R 3 ) v -A-. -(A-R 1 -A-R 5 ) w -, and -(A-R 1 -A-R 5 ) w -A- which connect the R 2 moiety of one chain to an R 1 , R 2 or R 3 moiety of a second oligomer or polymer chain. As used herein, the term "the R 2 moieties are essentially substituted ethylene moieties having C j -C^ alkyl or alkoxymethyl substituents" refers to compounds of the present invention where the R 2 moieties consist entirely of substituted ethylene moieties, or are partially replaced with other compatible moieties having the aforementioned Y moieties. Examples of preferred compatible moieties include linear C 2 - alkylene moieties such as ethylene. 1.3- propylene, 1 ,4-butylene, 1 ,5-pentylene or 1.6- hexylene. 1,2-cycloalkylene moieties such as 1.2-cyclohexylene. 1,4-cycloalkylene moieties such as 1.4- cyclohexylene and 1.4-dimethylenecyclo-hexylene. poiyoxyalkylated 1.2- hydroxyalkylene such as — CHoCH — X CH,O(CH,CH.O)p— R or alkyleneoxyalkyl moieties such as )-. wherein p is from 0 to 20. For the R 2 moieties, the degree of paπial replacement with these other compatible moieties should be such that the soil release, solubility and fluorescent whitening propeπies of the compounds are not adversely affected to any great extent. Generally, the degree of paπial replacement which can be tolerated will depend upon the soil release, solubility and fluorescent whitening propeπies desired, the backbone length of the compound, (i.e.. longer backbones generally can have greater paπial replacement), and the type of moiety involved (e.g.. greater partial substitutions with ethylene moieties generally decreases solubility). Usually, compounds where the R 2 comprise from about 20 to 100% substituted or unsubstituted ethylene moieties (from 0 to about 80% other compatible moieties) have adequate soil release activity. However, it is generally desirable to minimize such paπiai replacement for best soil release activity and solubility propeπies. (During the making of polyesters according to the present invention small amounts of polyoxyalkylene moieties (as dialkyene glycols) can be formed from glycols in side reactions and then incorporated into the polyesters). Preferably, R 2 comprises from about 80 to 100% substituted or unsubstituted ethylene moieties, and from 0 to about 20% other compatible moieties. For the R 2 moieties, more preferred substituted moieties include, 1 ,2-ethylene. 1 ,2-propylene. 1.2-butylene, 3- methoxy-l,2-propylene and mixtures thereof, most preferred R 2 substituted moieties are essentially 1 ,2-propylene moieties. The R 3 moieties are essentially the polyoxyethylene moiety -(CH^C^O - CH2CH2- or polyalkylene moieties derived from block or random copolymerization of ethylene oxide with propylene oxide and/or butylene oxide. As used herein, the term "the R 3 moieties are essentially the polyoxyethylene moiety -(CH CHoO CHoCHi-" refers to compounds of the present invention in which the R 3 moieties consist entirely of this polyoxyethylene moiety, or fuπher include other compatible moieties. The degree of inclusion of these other moieties should be such that the soil release propeπies of the compounds are not adversely affected to any great extent and that these moieties are compatible with the selected fluorescent whitening end capping moieties. Usually, in compounds of the present invention, the polyoxyethylene moiety comprises from about 50 to 100% of each R 3 moiety. (During the making of polyesters according to the present invention, very small amounts of oxyalkylene moieties may be attached to the polyoxyethylene moiety in side reactions and thus incorporated into the R 3 moieties). For the polyoxyethylene moiety, the value for q is at least 1. and is preferably at least about 9. more preferably at least about 12. The value for q usually ranges from about 12 to about 50. Typically the value for q is in the range of from about 12 to about 35. R" moieties are an optional hydrolyzable fragment which serves to provide a suitable linking of the non-hydrolyzable end capping units to the oligomeric or polymeric backbone. R 4 moieties comprise R 2 . R 3 or R 5 units. Any R"* units may be used provided the rules of chemical bonding are adhered to and that no peroxide. -N-O- or azo bonds are formed. The R 5 units are essentially the substituted alkylene or alkylene ether moieties having the structure R9 R9 I I wherein the index i has the value of 0 or 1. and R 10 is C2-Cg linear alkylene. C3- C branched alkylene.

If high sudsing is desired, the branched-chain C\Q-C \ soaps may be used. Mixtures of anionic and nonionic surfactants are especially useful. Other conventional useful surfactants are described further herein and are listed in standard texts. Anionic surfactants can be broadly described as the water-soluble salts, particularly the alkali metal salts, of organic sulfuric reaction products having in their molecular structure an alkyl radical containing from about 8 to about 22 carbon atoms and a radical selected from the group consisting of sulfonic acid and sulfuric acid ester radicals. ( Included in the term alkyl is the alkyl poπion of higher acyl radicals.) Impoπant examples of the anionic synthetic detergents which can form the surfactant component of the compositions of the present invention are the sodium or potassium alkyl sulfates. especially those obtained by sulfating the higher alcohols (C8-18 carbon atoms) produced by reducing the glycerides of tallow or coconut oil; sodium or potassium alkyl benzene sulfonates. in whcih the alkyl group contains from about 9 to about 15 carbon atoms, (the alkyl radical can be a straight or branched aliphatic chain); sodium alkyl glyceryl ether sulfonates. especially those ethers of the higher alcohols derived from tallow and coconut oil; sodium coconut oil fatty acid monoglyceride sulfates and sulfonates: sodium or potassium salts of sulfuric acid ester of the reaction product of one mole of a higher fatty alcohol (e.g. tallow or coconut alcohols) and about 1 to about 10 moles of ethylene oxide; sodium or potassium salts of alkyl phenol ethylene oxide ether sulfates with about 1 to about 10 units of ethylene oxide per molecule and in which the alkyl radicals contain from 8 to 12 carbon atoms: the reaction products of fatty acids are derived from coconut oil sodium or potassium salts of fatty acid amides of a methyl tauride in which the fatty acids, for example, are derived from coconut oil and sodium or potassium beta-acetoxy- or beta- acetamido-alkanesulfonates where the alkane has from 8 to 22 carbon atoms. Additionally, secondary alkyl sulfates may be used by the formulator exclusively or in conjunction with other surfactant materials and the following identifies and illustrates the differences between sulfated surfactants and otherwise conventional alkyl sulfate surfactants. Non-limiting examples of such ingredients are as follows. Conventional primary alkyl sulfates (LAS), such as those illustrated above. have the general formula ROSO3-M* wherein R is typically a linear C8-22 hydrocarbyl group and M is a water solublizing cation. Branched chain primary alkyl sulfate surfactants (i.e.. branched-chain "PAS") having 8-20 carbon atoms are also know: see. for example. Eur. Pat. Appl. 439.316. Smith et al.. filed January 21. 1991. Conventional secondary alkyl sulfate surfactants are those materials which have the sulfate moiety distributed randomly along the hydrocarbyl "backbone" of the molecule. Such materials may be depicted by the structure CH 3 (CH2)n(CHOSO3-M + )(CH2) m CH3 wherein m and n are integers of 2 of greater and the sum of m + n is typically about 9 to 17. and M is a water-solublizing cation.

"Bleaching Compositions Comprising Protease Enzymes" having US Serial No. 08/322.677. both filed October 13. 1994. Amylases suitable herein, especially for. but not limited to automatic dishwashing puφoses. include, for example, α-amylases described in GB 1.296,839 to Novo: RAPIDASE®, International Bio-Synthetics. Inc. and TERMAMYL®. Novo. FUNGAMYL® from Novo is especially useful. Engineering of enzymes for improved stability, e.g., oxidative stability, is known. See. for example J. Biological Chem.. Vol. 260. No. 11. June 1985. pp 6518-6521. These prefeπed amylases herein share the characteristic of being "stability- enhanced" amylases. characterized, at a minimum, by a measurable improvement in one or more of: oxidative stability, e.g., to hydrogen peroxide / tetraacetylethylenediamine in buffered solution at pH 9-10; thermal stability, e.g., at common wash temperatures such as about 60°C; or alkaline stability, e.g., at a pH from about 8 to about 1 1. measured versus the above-identified reference-point amylase. Stability can be measured using any of the an-disclosed technical tests. See. for example, references disclosed in WO 9402597. Stability-enhanced amylases can be obtained from Novo or from Genencor International. One class of highly prefeπed amylases herein have the commonality of being derived using site-directed mutagenesis from one or more of the Baccillus amylases. especialy the Bacillus α-amylases. regardless of whether one, two or multiple amylase strains are the immediate precursors. Oxidative stability-enhanced amylases vs. the above-identified reference amylase are prefeπed for use. especially in bleaching, more preferably oxygen bleaching, as distinct from chlorine bleaching, detergent compositions herein. Such prefeπed amylases include (a) an amylase according to the hereinbefore incoφorated WO 9402597. Novo.

Enzymes for use in detergents can be stabilized by various techniques. Enzyme stabilization techniques are disclosed and exemplified in U.S. 3.600.319. August 17. 1971 , Gedge et al. EP 199,405 and EP 200.586. October 29. 1986. Venegas. Enzyme stabilization systems are also described, for example, in U.S. 3.519.570. A useful Bacillus, sp. AC 13 giving proteases, xylanases and cellulases, is described in WO 9401532 A to Novo. Enzvme Stabilizing System - Enzyme-containing, including but not iimited to. liquid compositions, herein may comprise from about 0.001% to about 10%. preferably from about 0.005% to about 8%. most preferably from about 0.01% to about 6%. by weight of an enzyme stabilizing system. The enzyme stabilizing system can be any stabilizing system which is compatible with the detersive enzyme. Such a system may be inherently provided by other formulation actives. or be added separately, e.g., by the formulator or by a manufacturer of detergent- ready enzymes. Such stabilizing systems can. for example, comprise calcium ion. boric acid, propylene glycol. shoπ chain carboxylic acids, boronic acids, and mixtures thereof, and are designed to address different stabilization problems depending on the type and physical form of the detergent composition. One stabilizing approach is the use of water-soluble sources of calcium and/or magnesium ions in the finished compositions which provide such ions to the enzymes. Calcium ions are generally more effective than magnesium ions and are prefeπed herein if only one type of cation is being used. Typical detergent compositions, especially liquids, will comprise from about 1 to about 30. preferably from about 2 to about 20. more preferably from about 8 to about 12 milhmoies ot calcium ion per liter of finished detergent composition, though variation is possible depending on factors including the multiplicity , type and levels of enzymes incoφorated Preferably water-soluble calcium or magnesium salts are employed, including for example calcium chloride, calcium hydroxide, calcium formate, calcium malate. calcium maleate. calcium hydroxide and calcium acetate, more generally , calcium sulfate or magnesium salts coπesponding to the exemplified calcium salts may be used. Fuπher increased levels of Calcium and/or Magnesium may of course be useful, for example for promoting the grease-cutting action of ceπain types of surfactant. Another stabilizing approach is by use of borate species. See Severson. U.S. 4.537.706. Borate stabilizers, when used, may be at levels of up to 10% or more of the composition though more typically, levels of up to about 3% by weight of boric acid or other borate compounds such as borax or oπhoborate are suitable for liquid detergent use. Substituted bone acids such as phenylboromc acid, butaneboronic acid, p-bromophenylboromc acid or the like can be used in place of bone acid and reduced levels of total boron in detergent compositions may be possible though the use of such substituted boron derivatives. Stabilizing systems of ceπain cleaning compositions may further compnse from 0 to about 10%. preferably from about 0.01% to about 6% by weight, of chlorine bleach scavengers, added to prevent chlorine bleach species present m many water supplies from attacking and inactivating the enzymes, especially under alkaline conditions. While chlonne levels in water may be small, typically in the range from about 0.5 ppm to about 1.75 ppm. the available chlonne in the total volume of water that comes in contact with the enzyme, for example duπng dish- or fabric-washing, can be relatively large: accordingly, enzyme stability to chlonne in-use is sometimes problematic. Since perborate or percarbonate. which have the ability to react with chlorine bleach, may present in ceπain of the instant compositions in amounts accounted for separately from the stabilizing system, the use of additional stabilizers against chlorine, may, most generally, not be essential, though improved results may be obtainable from their use. Suitable chlonne scavenger anions are widely known and readily available, and. if used, can be salts containing ammonium cations with sulfite. bisulfite, thiosulfite. thiosulfate. iodide, etc. Antioxidants such as carbamate. ascorbate. etc.. organic amines such as ethylenediaminetetracetic acid (EDTA) or alkali metal salt thereof, monoethanolamine (MEA). and mixtures thereof can likewise be used. Likewise, special enzyme inhibition systems can be incoφorated such that different enzymes have maximum compatibility. Other conventional scavengers such as bisulfate. nitrate, chloride, sources of hy drogen peroxide such as sodium perborate tetrahydrate. sodium perborate monoh drate and sodium percarbonate. as well as phosphate, condensed phosphate, acetate, benzoate. citrate, formate, lactate. malate. tartrate. salicy late. etc.. and mixtures thereof can be used if desired. In general, since the chlorine scavenger function can be performed by ingredients separately listed under better recognized functions, (e.g.. hydrogen peroxiαe sources), there is no absolute requirement to add a separate chlorine scavenger unless a compound performing that function to the desired extent is absent from an enzyme-containing embodiment of the invention; even then, the scavenger is added only for optimum results. Moreover, the formulator will exercise a chemist's normal skill in avoiding the use of any enzyme scavenger or stabilizer which is majorly incompatible, as formulated, with other reactive ingredients, if used. In relation to the use of ammonium salts, such salts can be simply admixed with the detergent composition but are prone to adsorb water and/or liberate ammonia duπng storage. Accordingly, such matenals. if present, are desirably protected in a panicle such as that described in US 4.652.392. Baginski et al. Bleaching Compounds - Bleaching Agents and Bleach Activators - The detergent compositions herein may optionally contain bleaching agents or bleaching compositions containing a bleaching agent and one or more bleach activators. When present, bleaching agents will typically be at levels of from about 1% to about 30%. more typically from about 5% to about 20%. of the detergent composition, especially for fabric laundenng. If present, the amount of bleach activators will typically be from about 0.1% to about 60%. more typically from about 0.5% to about 40% of the bleaching composition compnsing the bleaching agent-plus-bleach activator. The bleaching agents used herein can be any of the bleaching agents useful for detergent compositions in textile cleaning, hard surface cleaning, or other cleaning puφoses that are now known or become known. These include oxygen bleaches as well as other bleaching agents. Perborate bleaches, e.g., sodium perborate (e.g., mono- or tetra-hydrate) can be used herein. Another category of bleaching agent that can be used without restnction encompasses percarboxylic acid bleaching agents and salts thereof. Suitable examples of this class of agents include magnesium monoperoxy phthalate hexahydrate. the magnesium salt of metachloro perbenzoic acid. 4-nonylamιno-4- oxoperoxybutyπc acid and diperoxydodecanedioic acid. Such bleaching agents are disclosed in U.S. Patent 4.483.781. Hartman. issued November 20. 1984. U.S Patent Application 740.446. Bums et al. filed June 3. 1985. European Patent Application 0.133.354. Banks et al. published February 20. 1985. and U.S. Patent 4.412.934. Chung et al. issued November 1. 1983. Highly prefeπed bleaching agents also include 6-nony amino-6-oxoperoxycaproic acid as described in U.S. Patent 4.634.5 1. issued January 6. 1987 to Bums et al. Peroxygen bleaching agents can also be used. Suitable peroxygen bleaching compounds include sodium carbonate peroxyhydrate and equivalent "percarbonate" bleaches, sodium pyrophosphate peroxyhydrate. urea peroxyhydrate. and sodium peroxide. Persulfate bleach (e.g.. OXONE. manufactured commercially by DuPont) can also be used. A prefeπed percarbonate bleach comprises dry particles having an average particle size in the range from about 500 micrometers to about 1 ,000 micrometers, not more than about 10% by weight of said particles being smaller than about 200 micrometers and not more than about 10% by weight of said particles being larger than about 1.250 micrometers. Optionally, the percarbonate can be coated with silicate, borate or water-soluble surfactants. Percarbonate is available from various commercial sources such as FMC. Solvay and Tokai Denka. Mixtures of bleaching agents can also be used. Peroxygen bleaching agents, the perborates, the percarbonates. etc.. are preferably combined with bleach activators, which lead to the in situ production in aqueous solution (i.e., during the washing process) of the peroxy acid coπesponding to the bleach activator. Various nonlimiting examples of activators are disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,915.854, issued April 10, 1990 to Mao et al. and U.S. Patent 4.412.934. The nonanoyloxybenzene sulfonate (NOBS) and tetraacetyl ethylene diamine (TAED) activators are typical, and mixtures thereof can also be used. See also U.S. 4.634.551 for other typical bleaches and activators useful herein. Highly prefeπed amido-derived bleach activators are those of the formulae: R 1 N(R 5 )C(O)R C(O)L or R 1 C(O)N(R 5 )R C(O)L wherein R 1 is an alkyl group containing from about 6 to about 12 carbon atoms. R 2 is an alkylene containing from 1 to about 6 carbon atoms. R 5 is H or alkyl. aryl. or alkaryl containing from about 1 to about 10 carbon atoms, and L is any suitable leaving group. A leaving group is any group that is displaced from the bleach activator as a consequence of the nucleophilic attack on the bleach activator by the perhydrolysis anion. A prefeπed leaving group is phenyl sulfonate. Prefeπed examples of bleach activators of the above formulae include (6- octanamido-caproyl)oxybenzenesulfonate, (6-nonanamidocaproyl)oxybenzenesul- fonate. ( 6-decanamido-caproyl ιoxybenzenesulfonate. and mixtures thereof as described in U.S. Patent 4.634.5 1. incoφorated herein by reference. Another class of bleach activators comprises the benzoxazin-type activators disclosed by Hodge et al in U.S. Patent 4.966.723. issued October 30. 1990. incoφorated herein by reference. A highly prefeπed activator of the benzoxazin- type is: Still another class of prefeπed bleach activators includes the acyl iactam activators, especially acyl caprolactams and acyl valerolactams of the formulae: wherein R° is H or an alkyl, aryl. alkoxyaryl. or alkaryl group containing from 1 to about 12 carbon atoms. Highly prefeπed Iactam activators include benzoyl caprolactam, octanoyl caprolactam. 3,5.5-trimethylhexanoyl caprolactam. nonanoyl caprolactam. decanoyl caprolactam. undecenoyl caprolactam. benzoyl valerolactam. octanoyl valerolactam. decanoyl valerolactam, undecenoyl valerolactam. nonanoyl valerolactam. 3.5.5-trimethylhexanoyi valerolactam and mixtures thereof. See also U.S. Patent 4.545.784. issued to Sanderson. October 8. 1985. incoφorated herein by reference, which discloses acyl caprolactams. including benzoyl caprolactam. adsorbed into sodium perborate. Bleaching agents other than oxygen bleaching agents are also known in the art and can be utilized herein. One type of non-oxygen bleaching agent of particular interest includes photoactivated bleaching agents such as the sulfo nated zinc and/or aluminum phthalocyanines. See U.S. Patent 4.033.718, issued July 5. 1977 to Holcombe et al. If used, detergent compositions will typically contain from about 0.025% to about 1.25%. by weight, of such bleaches, especially sulfonate zinc phthalocyanine. If desired, the bleaching compounds can be catalyzed by means of a manganese compound. Such compounds are well known in the art and include, for example, the manganese-based catalysts disclosed in U.S. Pat. 5.246.621. U.S. Pat. 5.244.594: U.S. Pat. 5.194.416: U.S. Pat. 5.1 14.606: and European Pat. App. Pub.

Other metal-based bleach catalysts include those disclosed in U.S. Pat. 4.430.243 and U.S. Pat. 5.1 14.61 1. The use of manganese with various complex ligands to enhance bleaching is also reponed in the following United States Patents: 4.728.455: 5.284.944: 5.246.612; 5.256.779: 5.280.1 17: 5.274.147: 5.153.161 : and 5.227.084. As a practical matter, and not by way of limitation, the compositions and processes herein can be adjusted to provide on the order of at least one part per ten million of the active bleach catalyst species in the aqueous washing liquor, and will preferably provide from about 0.1 ppm to about 700 ppm. more preferably from about 1 ppm to about 500 ppm, of the catalyst species in the laundry liquor. Builders - Detergent builders can optionally be included in the compositions herein to assist in controlling mineral hardness. Inorganic as well as organic builders can be used. Builders are typically used in fabric laundering compositions to assist in the removal of paniculate soils. The level of builder can vary widely depending upon the end use of the composition and its desired physical form. When present, the compositions will typically comprise at least about 1% builder. Liquid formulations typically comprise from about 5% to about 50%. more typically about 5% to about 30%. by weight, of detergent builder. Granular formulations typically comprise from about 10% to about 80%. more typically from about 15% to about 50% by weight, of the detergent builder. Lower or higher levels of builder, however, are not meant to be excluded. Inorganic or P-containing detergent builders include, but are not limited to. the alkali metal, ammonium and alkanolammonium salts of polyphosphates (exemplified by the tripolyphosphates. pyrophosphates. and glassy polymeric meta-phosphates). phosphonates. phytic acid, silicates, carbonates (including bicarbonates and sesquicarbonates), sulphates, and aluminosilicates. However, non-phosphate builders are required in some locales. Imponantly, the compositions herein function suφrisingly well even in the presence of the so- called "weak" builders (as compared with phosphates) such as citrate, or in the so- called 'underbuilt" situation that mav occur with zeolite or layered silicate builders Examples of silicate builders are the alkali metal silicates, particularly those hav ing a SιOτ Na O ratio in the range 1 6 1 to 3 2 1 and layered silicates, such as the layered sodium silicates described in U S Patent 4.664.839. issued May 12. 1987 to H P. Rieck NaSKS-6 is the trademark for a crystalline layered silicate marketed by Hoechst (commonly abbreviated herein as "SKS-6") Unlike zeolite builders, the Na SKS-6 silicate builder does not contain aluminum NaSKS-6 has the delta-Na2Siθ5 moφhology form of layered silicate. It can be prepared by methods such as those descnbed in German DE-A-3.417.649 and DE- A-3.742.043. SKS-6 is a highly prefeπed layered silicate for use herein, but other such layered silicates, such as those having the general formula NaMSι θ2 +l y O wherein M is sodium or hydrogen, x is a number from 1 9 to 4, preferably 2. and y is a number from 0 to 20. preferably 0 can be used herein Various other layered silicates from Hoechst include NaSKS-5, NaSKS-7 and NaSKS- 1 1. as the alpha, beta and gamma forms. As noted above, the delta- Na2 ιθ5 (NaSKS-6 form) is most prefeπed for use herein. Other silicates may also be useful such as for example magnesium silicate, which can serve as a cnspening agent in granular formulations, as a stabilizing agent for oxygen bleaches, and as a component of suds control systems. Examples of carbonate builders are the alkaline eanh and alkali metal carbonates as disclosed in German Patent Application No. 2.321.001 published on November 15. 1973. Aluminosilicate builders are useful in the present invention Aluminosilicate builders are of great impoπance in most cuπently marketed heavy duty granular detergent compositions, and can also be a significant builder ingredient in liquid detergent formulations. Aluminosilicate builders include those having the empirical formula: M z (zAlO ) y ] xH2θ wherein z and y are integers of at least 6. the molar ratio of z to y is in the range from 1.0 to about 0.5. and x is an integer from about 15 to about 264. Useful aluminosilicate ion exchange matenals are commercially available. These aluminosilicates can be crystalline or amoφhous in structure and can be naturally-occurnng aluminosilicates or synthetically denved. A method for producing aluminosilicate ion exchange materials is disclosed in U.S. Patent 3.985.669. rummel. et al. issued October 12. 1 76. Prefeπed synthetic crystalline aluminosilicate ion exchange materials useful herein are available under the designations Zeolite A. Zeolite P ( B). Zeolite MAP and Zeolite X. In an especially prefeπed embodiment, the crystalline aluminosilicate ion exchange material has the formula: Na]2[(Alθ2>i2(Siθ2)i2]-xH2θ wherein x is from about 20 to about 30. especially about 27. This material is known as Zeolite A. Dehydrated zeolites (x = 0 - 10) may also be used herein. Preferably, the aluminosilicate has a panicle size of about 0.1-10 microns in diameter. Organic detergent builders suitable for the puφoses of the present invention include, but are not restricted to. a wide variety of polycarboxylate compounds. As used herein, "polycarboxylate" refers to compounds having a plurality of carboxylate groups, preferably at least 3 carboxvlates. Polycarboxylate builder can generally be added to the composition in acid form, but can also be added in the form of a neutralized salt. When utilized in salt form, alkali metals, such as sodium, potassium, and lithium, or alkanolammonium salts are prefeπed. Included among the polycarboxylate builders are a variety of categories of useful materials. One impoπant category of polycarboxylate builders encompasses the ether polycarboxylates. including oxydisuccinate, as disclosed in Berg, U.S. Patent 3.128.287. issued April 7. 1964. and Lambeπi et al. U.S. Patent 3.635.830. issued January 18. 1972. See also "TMS/TDS" builders of U.S. Patent 4,663.071. issued to Bush et al. on May 5, 1987. Suitable ether polycarboxylates also include cyclic compounds, particularly alicyclic compounds, such as those described in U.S. Patents 3.923.679; 3.835.163; 4.158.635; 4,120.874 and 4.102.903. Other useful detergency builders include the ether hydroxypolycarboxylates. copolymers of maleic anhydride with ethylene or vinyl methyl ether, 1, 3, 5-trihydroxy benzene-2, 4. 6-trisulphonic acid, and carboxymethyloxysuccinic acid, the various alkali metal, ammonium and substituted ammonium salts of polyacetic acids such as ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid and nitrilotriacetic acid, as well as polycarboxylates such as mellitic acid, succinic acid, oxydisuccinic acid, polymaleic acid, benzene 1.3.5-tricarboxylic acid, carboxymethyloxysuccinic acid, and soluble salts thereof. Citrate builders, e.g., citric acid and soluble salts thereof (particularly sodium salt), are polycarboxylate builders of particular importance for heavy duty liquid detergent formulations due to their availability from renewable resources and their biodegradability. Citrates can also be used in granular compositions, especially in combination with zeolite and/or layered silicate builders. Oxydisuccinates are also especially useful in such compositions and combinations. Mso suitable in the detergent compositions of the present invention are the 3.3-dιcarboxy-4-o\a- 1.6-hexanedιoates and the related compounds disclosed in U S Patent 4.566.984 Bush, issued January 28. 1986 Useful succinic acid builders include the C5-C20 alkyl and alkenyl succinic acids and salts thereof A particularly prefeπed compound of this type is dodecen lsuccinic acid Specific examples of succinate builders include, laurylsuccinate. mynstylsuccinate. paimitylsuccmate. 2-dodecenylsuccιnate (prefeπed). 2-pentadecenylsuccιnate. and the like. Laurylsucc ates are the prefeπed builders of this group, and are descnbed in European Patent Application 86200690 5/0.200.263. published November 5. 1986. Other suitable polycarboxylates are disclosed in U.S. Patent 4.144.226. Crutchfield et al. issued March 13, 1979 and in U.S. Patent 3.308.067. Diehl, issued March 7. 1967. See also Diehl U.S. Patent 3.723.322. Fatty acids, e.g.. C j2-C ι g monocarboxylic acids, can also be incoφorated into the compositions alone, or in combination with the aforesaid builders, especially citrate and/or the succinate builders, to provide additional builder activity Such use of fatty acids will generally result in a diminution of sudsing, which should be taken into account by the formulator. In situations where phosphorus-based builders can be used, and especially in the formulation of bars used for hand-laundenng operations, the vanous alkali metal phosphates such as the well-known sodium tnpolyphosphates. sodium pyrophosphate and sodium orthophosphate can be used.

Other Polvmenc Soil Release Agents - Any polymenc soil release agent known to those skilled in the art can optionally be employed in the compositions and processes of this invention. Polymenc soil release agents are charactenzed by having both hydrophilic segments, to hydrophilize the surface of hydrophobic fibers, such as polyester and nylon, and hydrophobic segments, to deposit upon hydrophobic fibers and remain adhered thereto through completion of washing and nnsing cycles and. thus, serve as an anchor for the hydrophilic segments This can enable stains occurring subsequent to treatment with the soil release agent to be more easily cleaned in later washing procedures.

Suds suppression can be of paπicular impoπance in the so-called "high concentration cleaning process" as described in U.S. 4.489.455 and 4.489.574 and in front- loading European-style washing machines. A wide variety of materials may be used as suds suppressors, and suds suppressors are well known to those skilled in the an. See. for example. Kirk Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, Third Edition. Volume 7. pages 430-447 (John Wiley & Sons. Inc.. 1979). One category of suds suppressor of particular interest encompasses monocarboxylic fatty acid and soluble salts therein. See U.S. Patent 2.954.347. issued September 27. 1960 to Wayne St. John. The monocarboxylic fatty acids and salts thereof used as suds suppressor typically have hydrocarbyl chains of 10 to about 24 carbon atoms, preferably 12 to 18 carbon atoms. Suitable salts include the alkali metal salts such as sodium, potassium, and lithium salts, and ammonium and alkanolammonium salts. The detergent compositions herein may also contain non-surfactant suds suppressors. These include, for example: high molecular weight hydrocarbons such as paraffin, fatty acid esters (e.g., fatty acid triglycerides), fatty acid esters of monovalent alcohols, aliphatic C ι -C'40 ketones (e.g., stearone), etc. Other suds inhibitors include N-alkylated amino triazines such as tri- to hexa-alkylmeiamines or di- to tetra-alkyldiamine chlortriazines formed as products of cyanuric chloride with two or three moles of a primary or secondary amine containing 1 to 24 carbon atoms, propylene oxide, and monostearyl phosphates such as monosteary! alcohol phosphate ester and monostearyl di-alkali metal (e.g., K. Na. and Li) phosphates and phosphate esters. The hydrocarbons such as paraffin and haioparaffin can be utilized in liquid form. The liquid hydrocarbons will be liquid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, and will have a pour point in the range of about -40°C and about 50°C. and a minimum boiling point not less than about 1 10°C (atmospheric pressure). It is also known to utilize waxy hydrocarbons, preferably having a melting point below about 100°C. The hydrocarbons constitute a prefeπed category of suds suppressor for detergent compositions. Hydrocarbon suds suppressors are described, for example, in U.S. Patent 4.265.779. issued May 5. 1981 to Gandolfo et al. The hydrocarbons, thus, include aliphatic, alicyclic. aromatic, and heterocvclic saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbons having from about 1 to about 70 carbon atoms. The term "paraffin." as used in this suds suppressor discussion, is intended to include mixtures of true paraffins and cyclic hydrocarbons. Another prefeπed category of non-surfactant suds suppressors comprises silicone suds suppressors. This category includes the use of polyorganosiloxane oils, such as polydimethylsiloxane. dispersions or emulsions of polyorganosiloxane oils or resins, and combinations of polyorganosiloxane with silica particles wherein the polyorganosiloxane is chemisorbed or fused onto the silica. Silicone suds suppressors are well known in the art and are. for example. disclosed in U.S. Patent 4.265.779. issued May 5, 1981 to Gandolfo et al and European Patent Application No. 89307851.9. published February 7. 1990, by Starch.

For any detergent compositions to be used in automatic laundry washing machines, suds should not form to the extent that they overflow the washing machine. Suds suppressors, when utilized, are preferably present in a "suds suppressing amount. By "suds suppressing amount" is meant that the formulator of the composition can select an amount of this suds controlling agent that will sufficiently control the suds to result in a low-sudsing laundry detergent for use in automatic laundry washing machines. The compositions herein will generally comprise from 0% to about 5% of suds suppressor.

Preferably, from about 0.5% to about 3% of fatty monocarboxylate suds suppressor is utilized. Silicone suds suppressors are typically utilized in amounts up to about 2.0%. by weight, of the detergent composition, although higher amounts may be used. This upper limit is practical in nature, due primarily to concern with keeping costs minimized and effectiveness of lower amounts for effectively controlling sudsing. Preferably from about 0.01% to about 1% of silicone suds suppressor is used, more preferably from about 0.25% to about 0.5%. As used herein, these weight percentage values include any silica that may be utilized in combination with polyorganosiloxane. as well as any adjunct materials that may be utilized.

Examples of such brighteners are disclosed in "The Production and Application of Fluorescent Brightening Agents". M. Zahradnik. Published by John Wiley & Sons. New York (1982). Specific examples of optical brighteners which are useful in the present compositions are those identified in U.S. Patent 4.790.856. issued to Wixon on December 13. 1988. These brighteners include the PHORWHITE series of brighteners from Verona. Other brighteners disclosed in this reference include: Tinopal UNPA.

Fabric Softeners - Various through-the-wash fabric softeners, especially the impalpable smectite clays of U.S. Patent 4.062.647. Storm and Nirschl. issued December 13. 1977. as well as other softener clays known in the art. can optionally be used typically at levels of from about 0.5% to about 10% by weight in the present compositions to provide fabric softener benefits concuπently with fabric cleaning. Clay softeners can be used in combination with amine and cationic softeners as disclosed, for example, in U.S. Patent 4.375.416. Crisp et al. March 1. 1983 and U.S. Patent 4.291.071. Harris et al. issued September 22, 1981. Other Ingredients - A wide variety of other ingredients useful in detergent compositions can be included in the compositions herein, including other active ingredients, carriers, hydrotropes, processing aids, dyes or pigments, solvents for liquid formulations, solid fillers for bar compositions, etc. If high sudsing is desired, suds boosters such as the C \ Q-C \ ^ alkanolamides can be incoφorated into the compositions, typically at 1%-10% levels. The C10-C14 monoethanol and diethanol amides illustrate a typical class of such suds boosters. Use of such suds boosters with high sudsing adjunct surfactants such as the amine oxides, betaines and sultaines noted above is also advantageous. If desired, soluble magnesium salts such as MgCh. MgSO4, and the like, can be added at levels of, typically. 0.1%-2%, to provide additional suds and to enhance grease removal performance. Various detersive ingredients employed in the present compositions optionally can be further stabilized by absorbing said ingredients onto a porous hydrophobic substrate, then coating said substrate with a hydrophobic coating. Preferably, the detersive ingredient is admixed with a surfactant before being absorbed into the porous substrate. In use. the detersive ingredient is released from the substrate into the aqueous washing liquor, where it performs its intended detersive function. To illustrate this technique in more detail, a porous hydrophobic silica (trademark SIPERNAT D10. DeGussa) is admixed with a proteolytic enzyme solution containing 3%-5% of C 13.15 ethoxylated alcohol (EO 7) nonionic surfactant. Typically, the enzyme/surfactant solution is 2.5 X the weight of silica. The resulting powder is dispersed with stiπing in silicone oil (various silicone oil viscosity in the range of 500- 12.500 can be used). The resulting silicone oil dispersion is emulsified or otherwise added to the final detergent matrix. By this means, ingredients such as the aforementioned enzymes, bleaches, bleacn activators, bleach catalysts, photoactivators. dyes, fluorescers. fabric conditioners and hydrolyzable surfactants can be "protected" for use in detergents, including liquid laundry detergent compositions. Liquid detergent compositions can contain water and other solvents as carriers. Low molecular weight primary or secondary alcohols exemplified by methanol. ethanoi. propanol. and isopropanol are suitable. Monohydric alcohols are prefeπed for solubilizing surfactant, but polyols such as those containing from 2 to about 6 carbon atoms and from 2 to about 6 hydroxy groups (e.g., 1.3- propanediol. ethylene glycol. glycerin, and 1.2-propanediol) can also be used. The compositions may contain from 5% to 90%, typically 10% to 50% of such carriers. The detergent compositions herein will preferably be formulated such that, during use in aqueous cleaning operations, the wash water will have a pH of between about 6.5 and about 1 1, preferably between about 7.5 and 10.5. Liquid dishwashing product formulations preferably have a pH between about 6.8 and about 9.0. Laundry products are typically at pH 9-1 1. Techniques for controlling pH at recommended usage levels include the use of buffers, alkalis, acids, etc.. and are well known to those skilled in the art.
