Abstract
Abstract A detergent additive product comprising a C5-C18 aliphatic peroxy carboxylic acid bleach precursor in water releasable combination with a non particulate flexible substrate in a weight ratio of precursor to substrate of 30:1 to 1:10. The aliphatic portion of the precursor incorporates a linear chain including and extending from the carbonyl carbon of from 6 to 10 carbon atoms. The product can also include peracetic acid precursors and other compatible organic and inorganic detergent components.
