Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim
175 words
A detergent composition comprising: (A) from about 2% to about 15% of an alkylpolysaccharide detergent surfactant of the formula RO(R'O) y (Z) x where R is an alkyl, hydroxy alkyl, alkyl phenyl, hydroxy alkyl phenyl, alkyl benzyl, or mixtures thereof, said alkyl groups containing from about 8 to about 18 carbon atoms; where each R 1 contains from 2 to about 4 carbon atoms and y is from 0 to about 12; and where each Z is a moiety derived from a reducing saccharide containing 5 or 6 carbon atoms, and x is a number from about 1½ to about 10; (B) from about 1% to about 7% of an amine oxide detergent surfactant; (C) from about 1% to about 15% of a water-soluble fatty acid soap containing at least about 40% unsaturated soap containing from about 16 to about 22 carbon atoms; (D) from 0% to about 35% of a water-soluble detergency builder; (E) from about 0% to about 7% of a water-soluble synthetic anionic detergent surfactant; (F) from 0% to about 80% water.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
175 words
A detergent composition comprising: (A) from about 2% to about 15% of an alkylpolysaccharide detergent surfactant of the formula RO(R'O) y (Z) x where R is an alkyl, hydroxy alkyl, alkyl phenyl, hydroxy alkyl phenyl, alkyl benzyl, or mixtures thereof, said alkyl groups containing from about 8 to about 18 carbon atoms; where each R 1 contains from 2 to about 4 carbon atoms and y is from 0 to about 12; and where each Z is a moiety derived from a reducing saccharide containing 5 or 6 carbon atoms, and x is a number from about 1½ to about 10; (B) from about 1% to about 7% of an amine oxide detergent surfactant; (C) from about 1% to about 15% of a water-soluble fatty acid soap containing at least about 40% unsaturated soap containing from about 16 to about 22 carbon atoms; (D) from 0% to about 35% of a water-soluble detergency builder; (E) from about 0% to about 7% of a water-soluble synthetic anionic detergent surfactant; (F) from 0% to about 80% water.
