Abstract

See full text

A non-bleaching laundry detergent composition, wherein the solids content comprises an active surfactant, at least about 70 wt. % of a water soluble alkaline carbonate, e.g., sodium carbonate, a minor amount of a polymeric polycarboxylate, e.g., an acrylic acid polymer, and a minor amount of elemental zinc in the form of a water soluble salt, e.g., a hydrated or anhydrous zinc sulfate, such as zinc sulfate heptahydrate or monohydrate, based on the total weight of solids in the composition. Incorporation of a polymeric polycarboxylate and zinc ions in the foregoing laundry detergent composition containing carbonate ions has the effect of significantly reducing fabric encrustation caused by the precipitation of calcium carbonate.
