Abstract

The invention relates to detergent formulations for textiles, comprising rhamnolipids, where the content of di-rhamnolipids predominates, and to the use of certain rhamnolipid mixture compositions and of the aforementioned detergent formulations for increasing the rate of foam formation and/or for foam stabilization, and to the use of rhamnolipids for preventing the greying of a textile.
