What are the criteria for a good laundry detergent?

The criteria for a good laundry detergent are usually as follows:

In terms of cleaning ability

  1. Stain removal effect

– It should have a good ability to remove common stains (such as oil stains, sweat stains, blood stains, mud stains, food stains, etc.). For example, it can effectively break down oil molecules so that oil stains on clothes (such as oil stains splashed on clothes while cooking) basically disappear after washing.

– It should also have certain countermeasures for stubborn stains. For the dirt accumulated on collars and cuffs, a good laundry detergent can remove these stains under appropriate washing conditions (such as suitable water temperature and washing time) through a proper combination of surfactants and washing formulas.

  1. Wide applicability

– It can be used for different materials of clothing, including cotton, linen, polyester fiber, wool, silk, etc. For example, when washing woolen clothes, it won’t damage the wool fibers, cause shrinkage or felting due to factors like strong alkalinity of the detergent; for delicate fabrics like silk, it can also clean them gently without fading or damaging the luster and texture of the fabric.

 

In terms of safety

  1. Ingredient safety

– It should not contain harmful chemical substances such as formaldehyde, fluorescent whitening agents (some consumers have concerns about the safety of fluorescent whitening agents), phosphorus, etc. Phosphorus in particular may lead to eutrophication of water bodies and may irritate the skin if left on clothes.

– The surfactants used should be mild and cause little irritation to the skin. For example, those mainly composed of surfactants extracted from natural plants or synthetic surfactants that have undergone strict safety evaluations should be adopted so that even when hands come into direct contact with the laundry detergent during the washing process, it won’t cause allergic reactions, itching or other discomfort symptoms.

  1. Environmental protection safety

– It should have good biodegradability and can decompose relatively quickly in the natural environment to reduce pollution to the ecological environment. Its packaging materials should also be environmentally friendly, such as packaging bottles made of recyclable materials.

 

In terms of user experience

  1. Good solubility

– It can dissolve rapidly in water without agglomeration. This ensures that the laundry detergent can be evenly distributed in the water and fully play its cleaning role. For example, it can be completely dissolved in a short time even in cold water, making the washing process more convenient.

  1. Appropriate foam

– It produces an appropriate amount of foam. Excessive foam may make rinsing difficult and waste a lot of water for rinsing; while too little foam may give people the impression of insufficient cleaning power. A good laundry detergent should be able to ensure the cleaning effect while making the foam easy to rinse off.

  1. Pleasant odor

– It has a pleasant fragrance that lasts for a long time. The fragrance can be of various types, such as fresh floral fragrances (such as lavender fragrance, rose fragrance), fruity fragrances (such as lemon fragrance, strawberry fragrance), etc. Moreover, after the clothes are dried, this pleasant fragrance can be retained for a relatively long time, making the wearer feel comfortable.

  1. Good stability

– It has good stability during storage. Whether in a high-temperature or low-temperature environment, its chemical and physical properties (such as the state of the liquid, the activity of the components, etc.) will not change significantly, and there will be no phenomena such as deterioration or stratification, so that it can be used normally within the shelf life.
