Abstract

A stable, highly alkaline liquid warewashing emulsion composition can comprise an effective hardness sequestering amount of a sodium condensed phosphate, a detergent building amount of sodium hydroxide, an effective stain-removing amount of an inorganic source of chlorine, and an emulsion stabilizing amount of a hectorite clay thickener, which can be used in wash water at concentrations of less than about 2% to clean and destain tableware.
