Anti-Mite Unit Dose Products

Abstract

The present invention is entitled "Anti-mite unit dose preparation". The present invention provides an anti-mite unit dose article comprising a water soluble polymer film formed into a pouch having an internal compartment enclosing a liquid laundry detergent composition therein , and the liquid laundry detergent composition is characterized in that, in 1000s ‑1 A shear rate and a high shear viscosity in the range of 100 mPa·s to 900 mPa·s measured at a temperature of 20° C., and wherein the liquid laundry detergent composition comprises a total weight of the liquid laundry detergent composition 20% to 70% of one or more non-soap surfactants and 1% to 20% of benzyl benzoate. The presence of benzyl benzoate in this amount in the unit dose product not only provides an anti-mite benefit, but also reduces liquid stringing that can lead to membrane seal failure during the manufacturing process of such unit dose products without damaging the membrane. Plasticizing properties are negatively affected.

Description

Anti-Mite Unit Dose Products technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a unit-dose article comprising a water-soluble polymer film formed into a Being a pouch having an inner compartment that encloses the liquid laundry detergent composition therein. Background technique Water-soluble unit dose preparations are becoming increasingly popular among consumers because of their ease of use and reduced Fewer accidental spills during detergent dosing in washing operations. Such water-soluble unit dose preparations typically contain a water-soluble film, the water-soluble film is preferably formed of a polyvinyl alcohol homopolymer, a polyvinyl alcohol copolymer, or a mixture thereof, the water The dissolving film is formed as a pouch containing an interior compartment that encapsulates the liquid laundry detergent composition. [0003] During manufacture of the above-described unit-dose article, the first film is deformed in the mold to form the open cavity, ...

Problems solved by technology

[0009] However, it is challenging to formulate anti-mite actives into liquid laundry detergent compositions in water-soluble unit dose formulations

First, the presence of such anti-mite actives can alter the rheological properties of liquid laundry detergent compositions and lead to more membrane seal failure events caused by liquid stringing during the manufacturing process

Furthermore, the incorporation of such anti-mite actives into liquid laundry detergent compositions can also result in a greater impact on the plasticizing properties of the film
