Abstract

Liquid laundry detergent compositions provide good detergency for the cleaning of garments and textiles, as well as further providing a germicidal action to textile fabrics in a domestic laundering process. The liquid detergent compositions are aqueous compositions which comprise: PA1 A) 1-40 parts by weight of one or more anionic surfactant compositions selected from alkylethercarboxylates and alkylethersulfonates; PA1 B) 1-25 parts by weight of one or more quaternary ammonium surfactant compositions having germicidal properties; PA1 C) 3-50 parts by weight of one or more nonionic surfactant compositions selected from linear and secondary alcohol alkoxylates, alkylphenol ethoxylates, alkyl polyglycosides, amine oxides, alkanolamides; PA1 D) 0-10 parts by weight of one or more anionic co-surfactant compositions selected from alkylsulfates, alkylsulfonates, alkylethersulfates, alkylarylsulfonates, alkylarylethersulfates present in a proportion not exceeding one half of the weight of the one or more quaternary ammonium surfactant compositions having germicidal properties; PA1 wherein the weight ratios of B:A are at 1:2 or greater, PA1 with the remaining balance to 100 parts by weight…
