Claims
- 1. An aqueous liquid detergent composition having a viscosity of less than 2.5 Pas at 21 s.sup.-1 after storage for two weeks at 15.degree. C. or less and comprising from 5.0 to 60% by wt. of a primary alkyl sulfate material;
- wherein the primary alkyl sulphate material is a branched sulphate in which at least 50% of the primary alkyl sulphate material is branched;
- wherein the composition further comprises a unsaturated soap from 5 to 25% by wt. as part of the surfactant system, said soap having an iodine value of greater than 70; and
- wherein mole ratio of a first cationic counterion which is sodium to a second cationic counterion which is selected from the group consisting of potassium and ammonium in the composition is from 3:1 to 1:10.
- 2. An aqueous liquid detergent composition according to claim 1, comprising from 1 to 70% by weight of a detergent active material which material includes the 0.1 to 60% by weight primary alkyl sulphate.
- 3. An aqueous liquid detergent composition according to claim 2 comprising from 10 to 40% by weight of detergent active material wherein the primary alkyl sulphate is 0.1 to 40% by weight of the composition.
- 4. An aqueous liquid detergent composition according to claim 1 which is internally structured.
- 5. An aqueous liquid detergent composition according to claim 1, wherein the alkyl sulphate material is present in a lamellar droplet phase.
- 6. An aqueous liquid detergent composition according to claim 2, wherein the alkyl sulphate material constitutes from 5% to 60% by weight of the detergent active materials.
- 7. An aqueous detergent composition according to claim 1 comprising:
- a) from 1-70% by weight of detergent active material, including the 0.1 to 60% by wt. primary alkyl sulfate;
- b) from 1-60% of a salting out electrolyte;
- c) from 0.1 to 40% of a primary alkyl sulfate; and
- d) from 0 to 4.5% of a deflocculating polymer.
