Hand Dishwashing Liquid Components
When it comes to hand dishwashing liquids, consumers are looking for products that provide multiple features and benefits such as grease-cutting power, easy rinsing, pleasing foam and great feel – as well as biodegradable, plant-based and environmentally savvy technologies. Dow offers dish care solutions for formulations that improve cleaning and go beyond with multifunctional benefits.
Offer excellent cleaning
Dow has developed innovative surfactants such as TERGITOL™ 15-S-9 and ECOSURF™ SA-7 Surfactants, which are biodegradable solutions that provide high-performance cleaning.
Provide high, stable foam
For dishwashing liquid formulations with mild surfactants, TRITON™ CG-50 Surfactant provides high and stable foam properties while helping with cleaning.
Boost cleaning power
Dow’s solvents and amines such as Monoethanolamine or MIPA (monoisopropanolamine) boost the cleaning power of dishwashing liquid formulations, especially for removal of burnt-on food.
Provide richer pour
Dow’s rheology modifiers for dishwashing liquid formulations, including ACUSOL™ Millennium ER with a great combination of low-shear viscosity that enables suspension and easy pour – as well as ACUSOL™ 805S Rheology Modifier that provides richer pour performance.
Enhance foam and feel
To enhance foam and feel of dishwashing liquids, Dow offers multifunctional ingredients such as SupraCare™ 430 Polymer to improve sensorial benefits during and after use, providing excellent softness and feel on hands.
Improve drying speed
Dow also offers water-soluble, bio-based additives such as SupraCare™ 212 Polymer for dishwashing liquid formulations that provide enhanced water repellency to improve drying speed.
How do you formulate a hand dishwashing liquid with rich viscosity?
Using high surfactant levels offers superior performance but can irritate skin. Watch to learn how Dow solutions help you tackle this challenge and check out three key ingredients below.
SupraCare™ 760 Additive enables you to decrease the surfactant liquid by up to 50%, reduce the risk of skin irritation and maintain viscosity and mileage.
This polymer has a well-established toxicological profile and provides superior thickening and stabilization power.
SupraCare™ 430 Additive equips your hand dishwashing detergent with premium sensorial attributes, both during and after washing.
