With n - alkyl - n - acylamino acids and myristyl / cetyl - dimethyl amine oxides thickened cleaning agent compositions

摘要

Cleaning compositions comprise: (a) an active cleaning component, present in a cleaning effective amount; and (b) a thickening system comprising an alkali metal salt of an N-alkyl-N-acyl amino acid and a mixture of myristyl and cetyl dimethyl amine oxides. In a preferred embodiment, the compositions comprise an alkali metal hypochlorite and a strong base comprising an alkali metal hydroxide and an alkali metal silicate. The thickened compositions are useful as hard surface cleaners and particularly useful as drain opening compositions; as drain opening compositions, the dimethyl amine oxide component can be up to 100 % cetyl dimethyl amine oxide.
