Ever wondered, how the cleansing agents actually cleans your clothes & fabrics? Ever thought of exploring its back ground mechanism? “Yes or no” may be your response however; this blog article is a doorway to those questions. This is not purely science stuff but a common stuff that everyone wants to know because it sharpens your consumer awareness also gives more choice when you are purchasing a cleansing agent next time.

There are some physical-chemical steps involving in the process of cleaning through detergents namely wetting, emulsification, and dispersion. Surfactant increases the wetting ability of water by reducing its surface tension of the water. It emulsifies dirt and disperses the dirt & finally suspends them in the water. From the support of mechanical agitation the dirt at last dispersed into the wash water.

To run the above process, we definitely need a kind of detergent, and it can be in any form like bar, powder or liquid. Let us see what is behind these types of detergent and how it functions. Detergent cake is the first kind of detergent. Three factors play a crucial role including abrasion, alkaline power & surfactant. Abrasion is the process of wearing and scrapping away the soil & it is physical force. This process is a traditional one also eventually leads to damage to clothes. The physical power is obtained from fillers i.e., calcite, dolomite, talc, clay, feldspar. Alkaline infuses the chemical power for cleaning & surfactants is the fundamental component of cleaning detergents.

Whereas, Detergent Powder has alkaline & surfactant aspect the detergent powder doesn’t have filler component like, calcite, dolomite, talc, clay, feldspar. It means it has the chemical & mechanical power to remove the dirt or soil and no abrasion power as such in detergent bar. Due to presence of high alkali power clothes might turn into yellowish color gradually.   

Interestingly, Detergent Liquid, the celebrity of detergents has incorporated only surfactant factor but removes dirt effectively in comparison to both detergent bar & powder. Thus, now you have the freedom to choose between the three types of detergent also you have bonus information below.

Thinking outside the box is a culture for Dya-green and the manifestation of the idea is Dya-Green detergent booster. The detergent liquid carries only surfactant power, but when combined with detergent booster it surpasses the alkali power of detergent powder. As you know, this combination is already present in detergent powder which slowly turns your clothes into yellowish color after many washes. This specific disadvantage will not appear while using detergent liquid with detergent booster and moreover, it will brighten the clothes completely.
