Why laundry liquid capsule is better than normal type detergent now we have on market




A laundry capsule is mainly made of two parts, one is the liquid inside and another is the film outside. Why we think the laundry liquid capsule is better than normal type detergents? The reason must from the liquid inside the pouches.

Below is an ingredient of a laundry capsule. 

Ingredient
% by weight
Sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate
15-30
Sodium lauryl sulfate

15-30
Fatty alcohol    polyoxythylene ether (AEO-9)
15-30
Sodium polyacrylate

   5-10
Polyvidone(PVP)
  
   5-10
Alkali protease
1.5-3
Cellulose
  
1.5-3
Lipase
  
1.5-3

Here you can see that in the formula most are surfactant. As we all know that in laundry powder formula there are more than 50% to 70% are sodium sulfate, in laundry liquid formula there are about 70%-80% are useless water. Laundry liquid capsule formula get avoid of the disadvantage of normal type detergents from the beginning. Considering it’s active matter it can reach 60-70% which is far more higher than normal type detergents can.

 Unlike laundry powder in the processing use a lot of energy to change the liquid material into dry powder. Laundry liquid capsules using less energy in processing. When using laundry powder at home we usually put a little bit more than recommended. As we don’t know the exactly amount is ok for the laundry. This action wastes over millions dollars per year all over world.

I usually saw my mom bring a large bottle of laundry liquid pulling in the drum of washing machine. Using a gap to measure the amount and spilled to the outside on the floor. What makes laundry looks so stupid?

Thanks to laundry liquid capsule we can do laundry gracefully.

Background of Liquid Laundry Detergent Capsules

Liquid laundry detergent capsules


Liquid laundry detergent capsules first appeared on the European market in 2001. Initially a niche product category. They have now become the primary single dose laundry form.  Their largest and most established markets are the UK and  Ireland, while  France,  Italy  and  Spain  are  also  key markets.  The market presence of liquid laundry detergent capsules have a growing importance across most countries in Western Europe, as well as several countries in Central Europe.  In addition, laundry additives are also available in this product form.

The formulation of liquid laundry detergent capsules is highly concentrated: the level of surfactants (incl. soap) can be over 40%. The vast majority of liquid laundry detergent capsules are PH neutral.  The formula is water free (i.e. organic solvents are used instead).  The water soluble pouch, typically made of poly vinyl alcohol (PVA), is strong and flexible

When dry but dissolves in the washing machine when water is added, and degrades in the environment.
