Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 15
Claim 1
Independent Claim
46 words
A detergent composition comprising from about 20% to about 75% of a detergent surfactant; from about 1.0% to about 75% of water; and from about 0.1% to about 3.0% of an alkali metal, alkaline earth metal or ammonium salicylate; and being substantially free of phosphate materials.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
46 words
A detergent composition comprising from about 20% to about 75% of a detergent surfactant; from about 1.0% to about 75% of water; and from about 0.1% to about 3.0% of an alkali metal, alkaline earth metal or ammonium salicylate; and being substantially free of phosphate materials.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
15 words
The composition of claim 1 comprising from about 1.0% to about 2.0% of the salicylate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
13 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the salicylate is an alkali metal salicylate.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
11 words
The composition of claim 3 wherein the salicylate is sodium salicylate.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
16 words
The composition of claim 1 comprising from about 30% to about 60% of the detergent surfactant.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
16 words
The composition of claim 5 comprising from about 40% to about 50% of the detergent surfactant.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
23 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the detergent surfactant comprises an anionic surfactant which represents greater than 20% by weight of the composition.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
26 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the detergent surfactant is selected from the group consisting of anionic, nonionic, zwitterionic, semi-polar, and ampholytic surfactants, and mixtures thereof.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
23 words
The composition of claim 8 wherein the detergent surfactant is selected from the group consisting of anionic and nonionic surfactants, and mixtures thereof.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
124 words
The composition of claim 9 wherein the detergent surfactant is a mixture of a nonionic surfactant produced by the condensation of from about 5 moles to about 11 moles of ethylene oxide with one mole of a C 13 to C 16 alcohol, said nonionic surfactant being characterized by an HLB of from about 9.5 to about 15; and an anionic surfactant which is a mixture of an alkanolamine and an alkali metal salt of an alkyl benzene sulfonic acid where the alkyl group contains from about 9 to about 15 carbon atoms and wherein said alkanolamine is selected from the group consisting of mono-, di-, and triethanolamines and said alkali metal is selected from the group consisting of sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
15 words

Claim 14
Dependent Claim
16 words
The composition of claims 1 or 11 comprising from about 25% to about 50% of water.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
