Abstract

Laundry detergent compositions offering improved removal of particulate and greasy/oily soils, containing mixtures of selected nonionic and hydrolyzable cationic surfactants, together with specifically defined alkalinity sources, are disclosed. This invention permits the formulation of compositions which are alkaline in the laundry solution, and in which hydrolyzable cationic surfactants are stable during long periods of storage.
