Solid laundry detergent composition comprising light density silicate salt
The present invention relates to a solid laundry detergent composition comprising: (a) from 1 wt % to 40 wt % light density silicate salt having a bulk density of less than 400 g/l and a weight average particle size of less than 300 micrometers; (b) from 5 wt % to 60 wt % detersive surfactant; (c) from 0 wt % to 50 wt % carbonate salt; (d) from 0 wt % to 40 wt % sulphate salt; (e) from 0 wt % to 10 wt % phosphate builder; (f) from 0 wt % to 5 wt % zeolite builder; and (g) from 0 wt % to 15 wt % water; wherein the composition has a bulk density of 600 g/l or less.
1. A solid laundry detergent composition comprising:
(a) from 1 wt % to 40 wt % light density silicate salt having a bulk density of less than 100 g/l and a weight average particle size of less than 300 micrometers;
(b) from 5 wt % to 60 wt % detersive surfactant;
(c) from 0 wt % to 50 wt % carbonate salt;
(d) from 0 wt % to 40 wt % sulphate salt;
(e) from 0 wt % to 10 wt % phosphate builder; and
(f) from 3 wt % to 10 wt % water;
wherein: the composition has a bulk density of 600 g/l or less; the detergent composition has a cake strength of from 5N to 20N; and the composition is essentially free from zeolite builder and does not comprise nonionic detersive surfactants.
