History
1946, first all-purpose laundry detergentIncluded surfactants and buildersCombinations became more complex
Sodium triphosphate (STP)Very effective builderUse restricted in 1960’s because it caused eutrification in rivers
New additives are continually being introduced

History
Liquid laundry detergent1970’s, became popular in the U.S.
More convenient for consumers• Easier to handle
• Do not contain bleaching agents
• Remove stains better at lower temperatures
Sales have soared above powders in last decade
Have reached 50/50 market split in the U.S.

Types of Fabrics
Fabrics require specialized soil removal
Textile versus synthetic fabricsDifferent calcium content
Wettability due to hydrophobic and hydrophilic nature
Complexing agents react differently with each type of soil
![Page 10: Colloidal and Surface Phenomena of Liquid Laundry Detergent Dan Boek Erika Indivino Katie Marso Karey Smollar April 18 th, 2002 Featured Product: Make](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062712/56649ca25503460f94961e86/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Types of Fabrics
SodiumtriphosphateEffectiveness dependent on hydrophilic/hydrophobic nature of the fiber
Efficient removal of soils from synthetic or cotton garments, which are hydrophilic
Minimal affect on hydrophobic textile fibers
Different fabric and soil types are dealt with by using a mixture of compounds in detergents

Flocculation
Water is a poor solvent with salt ions present
Chain length decreases due to poor solvency
Van der Waals forces
Flocculation and phase separation result

Decoupling Polymer
Decoupling polymerHydrophylic backbone and hydrophobic side chains
Side chains dissolve in oil
Backbone dissolves in water
Steric repulsion causes the lamellar droplets to repel, hindering flocculation

METHODS OF REMOVAL
Mechanical Energy is the primary type of removal and used to enhance anti-redeposition
Potential Energy barriers is greatest near the surface, DLVO Theory
Using Anioinc surfactant to create electrical Charge on the surfactant and fiber causing repulsion

Calcium Containing Soil
Found on textile fabric surfaces
Effective detergency is dependent on type of washing solvent used
Increases water hardness which decreases the solubility
Slight solubility can cause calcium deposit break-up
![Page 38: Colloidal and Surface Phenomena of Liquid Laundry Detergent Dan Boek Erika Indivino Katie Marso Karey Smollar April 18 th, 2002 Featured Product: Make](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062712/56649ca25503460f94961e86/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Types of Fabrics
Cotton, Synthetic, textile
Different hydrophobic/hydrophilic nature
Effective detergency is dependent of “wettability” of the cloth and the type of complexing agent used
Cleaning mixed soils on blending fabrics cause complementing effects
