First Claim
Patent Images
1. A solid detergent composition comprising:
- (a) an effective amount of a cleaning agent to provide soil removal, wherein the cleaning agent comprises at least one of;
(i) surfactant;
(ii) source of alkalinity;
(iii) water conditioning agent; and
(iv) enzyme;
(b) an effective amount of a binding agent dispersed throughout the solid detergent composition to provide the detergent composition as a solid at room temperature, the binding agent comprising a result of mixing;
(i) alkali metal carbonate;
(ii) alkali metal bicarbonate; and
(iii) water.
