Laundry detergent compositions in the form of an article
A laundry additive article comprises surfactant, water-soluble and/or water-dispersible film-forming polymer, plasticizer, bleach, suds suppressor and Remaining Water. The article is in the form of a first flexible porous dissolvable solid structure having a dry density and having a Percent open cell content.
1. A laundry additive article consisting of by dry weight percentage:
a. from about 0.05% to about 10% surfactant;
b. from about 1% to about 50% water-soluble and/or water-dispersible film-forming polymer;
c. from about 0% to about 10% plasticizer;
d. from about 0.01% to about 50% chelant; from 0% to about 5% bleach;
e. from about 0% to about 2% bleach stabilizer; from about 0.01% to about 1% suds suppressor;
f. from about 0.1% to about 75% Remaining Water;
such that the article is in the form of a first flexible porous dissolvable solid structure having a dry density and having a Percent open cell content of from about 5% to about 99.9% and a percent elongation at maximum strain of at least 20%; and optionally:
g. from 1% to 15% pH adjusting agent;
h. from 0.1% to 10% rheology modifier; and
i. from 0.1% to 10% whitener.
2. A laundry detergent article consisting of by dry weight percentage:
a. from about 15% to about 80% anionic surfactant having a Krafft temperature of from about 20 to about 75;
b. from about 5% to about 60% film-forming water-soluble polymer;
c. from 0% to about 10% plasticizer;
d. from about 0.025% to about 1% enzyme;
e. from about 0.1% to about 75% Remaining Water;
such that the article is in the form of a first flexible porous dissolvable solid structure having a dry density and having a Percent open cell content of from about 5% to about 99.9% and a percent elongation at maximum strain of at least 20%; and optionally:
f. from 1°/0 to 15% pH adjusting agent;
g. from 0.1% to 10% rheology modifier; and
h. from 0.1% to 10% whitener.
