AQUEOUS LIQUID COMPOSITION WITH IMPROVED VISCOSITY BEHAVIOR AND ANTI-GELLING PERFORMANCE, AND USES THEREOF

摘要

An aqueous liquid composition, which may be used as a light duty hand dishwashing composition, comprising (i) at least one surfactant, (ii) at least one polyethylene oxide-polypropylene oxide block copolymer which is present in an amount of at least 0.4 weight % based on the weight of the composition, (iii) ethanol which is present in an amount of from 0.5 to 5 weight % based on the weight of the composition, and (iv) water. The mixture of in the polyethylene oxide-polypropylene oxide block copolymer and ethanol can inhibit or prevent gelling of the composition at a temperature below 0C.
