Sonett Laundry Powder Colour Sensitive 1.2kg Sonett

The main active ingredient of the Sonett Laundry Powder Color neutral is organic soap, manufactured from various plant-based oils from organic cultivation– such as palm oil, rapeseed, sunflower and coconut oil – by simmering them with an alkaline solution. Soap as an active washing substance uniquely amalgamates all of the properties required for the washing process – the moistening, dissolving, and absorbing of dirt. Sugar surfactant: Sugar, starch and coconut oil are the raw materials for the sugar surfactant used. It intensifies the fat-dissolving performance of the soap and has the effect that, in case of hard water, the calcium soap being formed and the dirt are kept finely dispersed. The third active ingredient is organic Quillaja. By extracting the liquid from the bark of the South American organic Quillaja Saponaria, a stain-removing agent is obtained which is highly efficient yet gentle on the colours and develops its cleansing performance even at low temperature. Sodium carbonate is a result of calcium reacting chemically with common salt. Silicates are obtained by melting quartz sand and sodium carbonate to form a compound. Sodium carbonate and silicates both intensify the washing lye, thanks to their alkalinity and promote the removal of fatty substances in particular. Zeolite and citrate, the salt of citric acid, both bind limestone in the water and prevent deposits in the washing machine and on fabrics. Zeolite is made from the raw materials sodium silicate and sodium aluminate which are easily accessible. This silicate works according to the principle of the ion exchange device, i.e. trapping the calcium and magnesium ions the cause of hard water, thus producing soft water for washing with soap detergents. Citrate obtained by fermenting sugar-containing by-products such as molasses, binds limestone, particularly at low temperatures.
