The pandemic has altered the way consumers care for their homes – they need high-performing products that provide cleanliness, safety and peace of mind as hygiene continues to be of the utmost importance. This year, Dow will utilize best in class virtual tools at the American Cleaning Institute (ACI) Virtual Summit, January 25 – 29, to connect and collaborate with customers, enabling them to experience the latest developments in the home care market and jointly drive innovation. 

During the forum, Dow will launch ACUSOL™ Prime 1 Polymer, Dow’s first-of-its-kind multifunctional, biodegradable dispersant. The groundbreaking innovation delivers enhanced performance, superior convenience and safety for people and the environment that is setting a new standard in home care.

Since the introduction of automatic dishwashing machines over 60 years ago, consumers have demanded high shine performance without compromising on spotting or filming—however, biodegradability typically lacks in these solutions. With ACUSOL™ Prime 1 Polymer, Dow sets the standard for the future of dishwashing on two fronts, unveiling a game-changing dispersant that enables multifunctional high performance while advancing sustainability.  

Unlike the current generation of minimally biodegradable dispersants, ACUSOL™ Prime 1 Polymer contains over 30% degradable carbon via OECD 302B protocol. This polymer is Dow’s first multifunctional dispersant on the market, protecting dishes against all major deposits caused by hard water and food residue.
