| abstract |
The invention relates to performance improved dish washing machine detergents. Said detergents provide improved washing performance even when a smaller dosage is used at a lower temperature and for a shorter period of washing time. Like traditional dishwashing machine detergents ("cleaners") the inventive detergents can be produced in both powder or granular form or in a tablet or pourable form as well as in the form of a combined product ( a "2 in 1" product which washes and rinses, or as a "3 in 1" product, which washes, rinses, and replaces salt), containing 0.1 - 50 wt. % of one or more non-ionic surfactants which have a dynamic surface tension of less than 60 mNm<-1> at a concentration of 0.01 g/l in distilled water at a frequency of 1 Hz. |
