Abstract

An elastic detergent product of improved form-retaining ability during elevated temperature storage and of improved foaming power after use comprises an organic detergent which is an ammonium or lower alkanolammonium anionic organic detergent salt or a mixture of such anionic detergent with amphoteric synthetic organic detergent, gelatin and a lower di- or polyhydric alcohol. The products made, which are essentially free of water, or anhydrous, and often are of bar, cake or shaped article forms, are of improved thermal stability, allowing them to be stored at higher temperatures than comparable products, without distortion, and do not readily form inhibiting gel structures or coatings after use, which could otherwise diminish foaming power. Also within the invention is a method of making the described detergent products.
