Calcium sequestering agents based on carbohydrates
bookPart
Present-day West-European builder systems in detergent formulations often consist of zeolite NaA together with a synthetic polycarboxylate. The latter materials are nonbiodegradable and substitutes should be considered. Carbohydrates seem attractive raw materials in this respect, since carboxylate groups that are essential for calcium binding in organic molecules can be introduced rather easily. In this paper three types of carbohydrates suitable for this purpose will be discussed. © CRF Carbohydrate Research Foundation, NL-2509 JG The Hague (The Netherlands), 1996. All
