The invention discloses a tableware detergent for dishwashers, wherein the tableware detergent comprises a 
powder detergent and a liquid detergent according to a 
mass ratio of (6-12):1, wherein the 
powder detergent comprises, by 
mass, 20-50 parts of an alkaline auxiliary agent, 10-40 parts of 
sodium percarbonate, 2-8 parts of 
tetraacetylethylenediamine, 1-4 parts of a 
nonionic surfactant, 1-3 parts of a biological 
enzyme preparation, 10-20 parts of 
sodium citrate, 1-8 parts of a chelating agent, and 2-10 parts of an 
organosilicon antifoaming agent, and the liquid detergent comprises, by weight, 25-50 parts of a 
solvent, 40-60 parts of a surfactant, 3-8.5 parts of a neutralizing agent, and 3-10 parts of water. According to the present invention, by adjusting the formula and the ratio of the 
powder detergent and the liquid detergent and controlling the foam amount during the use, the tableware detergent is suitable for dishwashers, solves the problem of too foam amount of the existing detergent, and has characteristics of strong detergency, strong wettability and good washing effect.
