Abstract

Consumers use whiteness as an indicator for washing performance. Graying of fabrics is especially observed after several washing cycles. To retain a high level of whiteness, even after multiple washes, BASF developed an antigraying solution that works on cotton and synthetic fabrics. The enzyme-chemistry solution increases the level of performance and convenience even at low temperatures. Using enzymes in combination with surfactants, polymers, and optical brighteners will take liquid detergents to the next level.
