Patent ID: 7811596

Claim:
A wet wipe comprising a substrate capable of absorbing and retaining a fluid therein, the substrate being impregnated with a cleaning composition comprising: (a) from about 0.01 to about 2% by weight, based on the weight of the wet wipe, of at least one hydroxy mixed ether of formula (I), wherein R 1 is a linear or branched alkyl moiety having 2 to 18 carbon atoms, R 2 is hydrogen or a linear or branched alkyl moiety having 2 to 18 carbon atoms, R 3 is hydrogen, R 4 is a linear or branched, alkyl and/or alkenyl moiety having 1 to 22 carbon atoms and n is a number from 1 to 50, provided that the sum of the carbon atoms in the moieties R 1 and R 2 is at least 4, and (b) at least one surfactant other than (a), selected from the group consisting of anionic surfactants, nonionic surfactants, cationic surfactants, amphoteric surfactants, zwitterionic surfactants and combinations thereof; wherein, when contacting a surface, said wet wipe provides improved cleaning and shine retention compared to wipes impregnated with alcohol ethoxylates.
