WASHING POWDERS. IN ADVERTISING MAKE-UP AND WITHOUT

Washing powders and their TV images

In the age of advertising, it is not products that are sold, but their images. Better than others - TV images. Of course, there are few sane people who, when shaping their consumer preferences, would consciously be guided by the advice of characters from commercials. Moreover, the intrusiveness of TV advertising only annoys many, and so much so that at the first hint of it, they rush to switch to another channel. Others assured themselves that they had learned not to see ads point-blank and therefore not to react. Sociologists, however, state that we make up to 90% of purchases, often without even realizing it, under the influence of advertising. And in fact, if advertising were not so effective, would a business really invest SUCH money in it?
One of the most aggressively advertised products is washing powders. This is understandable: their offer is huge, and in order to be sold, manufacturers have to pretty much push their elbows in the advertising field. FOR SALE IMAGES!
What is a good washing powder?

First of all, the detergent must be safe. After all, this is “chemistry”, and if the manufacturer does not meet the mandatory safety requirements, detergents can harm the health of the consumer not only when using them during the washing process, but also when wearing the items washed with them.
The fact that the washing powder does not pose a danger to the health of the consumer is evidenced by the Conformity Mark on its packaging (confirmation of the conformity of washing powders is mandatory and is carried out in the form of a declaration). However, on counterfeit products, which are dangerous, as they say, by definition, it is applied, of course, without a twinge of conscience and any reason for that.
It is easier to run into a fake when buying powder in a plastic bag: you will not install a line for packaging in boxes in every basement. There are cases when even ... marble chips were passed off as washing powder. In a word, when purchasing washing powder, do not forget about the increased potential danger detergents.

Safe does not mean quality

Checking quality indicators (for example, washes well or not?) is not included in the format of safety compliance confirmation. So the information "Product is certified", often used in advertising, means only that it has passed mandatory procedures security confirmation. No more. As a confirmation of high quality, this information should not be taken.
Quality- market category. It is assumed that each consumer must choose for himself a product that is optimal in terms of functionality and price. The only problem is that advertising is almost the only source of information about quality for the consumer.
Advertising is - it is advertising. The industry of images that we begin to take for a commodity. Tests leave no doubt that aggressively advertised detergents are far from always superior in efficiency to cheaper and uncommon in advertising and therefore we do not notice. And there is no sensation in this, because, from a chemical point of view, all washing powders, no matter how much they cost, consist of the same components.

We look at the composition and draw conclusions

The main components of the washing powder are indicated on its packaging.

• Surfactants (surfactants). This is a kind of synthetic "soap". Water-soluble surfactants, as washing agents, are the main component of synthetic detergents and are contained in them in a predominant amount.

• Bleachers

Washing white linen necessarily implies the presence of a chemical or optical brightener in the powder. Chemical bleaching is usually achieved by the introduction of chlorine-containing substances or peroxides, which destroy color stains, mainly plant origin(wine, tea, coffee, grass, etc.). Chlorine bleach is quite aggressive. It is wiser for allergy sufferers to use more gentle oxygen-containing agents to remove stains of plant origin and disinfect linen. Avoiding the word "bleach" that alerts consumers, their presence is often masked by the term "Active oxygen" or "Oxygen power". Optical brighteners are fluorescent substances (the so-called white dyes), which particles settle on linen, give it brightness and whiteness, create the illusion of special purity. Bleaches can be included in the powder for washing colored fabrics. The composition of children's powders should not be included.

Phosphates

Increase the effectiveness of surfactants. For what? By softening the water. The softer the water, the less the formation of lime foam and scale, the more effective the washing power of the washing powder, the higher the quality of the wash, the less money is spent.
How to deal with water hardness? For many decades (since the 1920s), phosphates have played the role of softeners, binding calcium and magnesium ions and thereby softening the water in which clothes are washed.
Until the early 1970s, phosphates were considered the optimal component of synthetic detergents and did not cause much concern. But since then, phosphates are irretrievably a thing of the past! What didn't they like? load on environment!
Environmental consequences of influence different aspects human economic activity on natural reservoirs acutely excited the Europeans, when the Rhine "suddenly" turned into, as they said then, "the sewer of Europe."
When the "fried rooster" pecked, under suspicion, and justifiably, were phosphate-containing detergents. Getting into the reservoirs with the spent soap solution, phosphates "fertilize" them, contributing to the accelerated growth of plants, and, as a result, lead to their overgrowth and waterlogging.

Of course, phosphate-containing detergents are by no means the main anthropogenic source of phosphates entering our environment. Where washing powders compete environmental impact, for example, with the use of phosphates in agricultural production?! But be that as it may, they certainly make their contribution. First of all, the negative impact of phosphate-based detergents on the environment has become apparent in Europe - due to its "crowding" and a record high proportion of the use of synthetic detergents per capita.
The debate on whether to regulate (prohibit, limit) the phosphate content in synthetic detergents is ongoing at the pan-European level long years However, even in Europe, uniform requirements have not yet been developed and regulated. So for now, the countries of Europe and the world community as a whole decide for themselves what to do. Germany, Italy, Sweden, USA, Canada and Japan are the furthest advanced with national or industry standards for phosphate. In some states, legislative prohibitions or restrictions have been introduced, in others - democratically, but persistently, a voluntary refusal to use them is promoted and stimulated.

Zeolites

As a result of the implementation of environmental policy in a number of the most environmentally advanced Western countries, a transition was made to the second generation of components that bind calcium and magnesium ions. Phosphates for water softening have been replaced by environmentally friendly phosphate-free insoluble zeolites. But systems based on phosphate-free insoluble zeolites did not become a panacea, and their age was not long.
The fact is that keyword here - "insoluble". And this “medal”, like all others, has two sides. Without dissolving, zeolites do not merge with soapy water into reservoirs, but, which is also not healthy, they are not washed out of the tissue structure, and, accumulating, make them rough. How critical this is for adults is up to adults to decide, but powders with zeolites are not suitable for washing baby clothes.
Their other drawback is that zeolite particles settle in sewer pipes, which inevitably leads to poor drainage. In Russia, systems based on phosphate-free insoluble zeolites have not yet appeared. In the 1990s, we obviously had no time for this - much more topical problems were on the agenda! But now there are optimistic signs that we are given the opportunity not to lag behind all of Europe, but to immediately jump into the next “car”, following the path of development of environmentally friendly detergents.

We will discuss below what components phosphates are replaced by in the 21st century.

• Enzymes

This is how enzymes are usually labeled on the packaging. These biologically active substances, which, by promoting the breakdown of proteins, effectively remove biological contaminants such as stains from eggs, blood, cocoa, milk, wine, proteins included in food products(sauces, ice cream, etc.). Enzymes do not withstand temperatures above 50 ° C, therefore, when washing with boiling, it is pointless to use such a powder. Baby powders should not contain enzymes (biological supplements).

• Polymers

Polymers are agents that keep the washed dirt in the powder solution and thereby prevent it from re-depositing on the fabric.

• Flavors

They give a pleasant smell to the powder and washed linen.

• Softeners

Lanolin and other softeners, as well as additives that prevent the deformation of products and retain their shape, are introduced into the composition of products for delicate fabrics (lace fabrics, cambric, knitwear, microfiber, fabrics made from mixed synthetic fibers, etc.).

• Defoamers

Abundant foam, contrary to popular belief, is not always a sign of the quality of the detergent. For automatic washing machines, it is categorically contraindicated, since it not only worsens the result of washing, but can also lead to a short circuit in electrical circuit machine and its failure. Therefore, to prevent excess foam, defoamers are introduced into the composition of powders intended for washing in automatic washing machines.

• Baby powders

The information "Baby powders" on the packaging is to ensure that these detergents do not contain any enzymes, zeolites or any bleaches. For neutralization unpleasant odors fragrances and fragrances may be present, but they work only at the washing stage and do not have a subsequent effect. Liquid is the best.

• Powders for colored laundry

May be labeled "Color". The composition includes polymers designed to prevent the removal of the dye and, if it does happen, keep it in solution to prevent staining of other things. These can be components such as "Paint Stabilizer", "Color Protection System", "Dye Transfer Inhibitor" and others.

How to choose washing powder

Choose detergents according to the type of fabric and type of soiling.
Their main characteristic - washing action - depends, in essence, on the careful selection and mixing of the above components and their chemical purity. This is where the scope for know-how (know-how) begins.
Expensive powders contain several types of enzymes, each of which specializes in removing a particular, “own” type of stain. Therefore, according to the washing ability of various contaminants, powders can differ significantly, depending on their chemical formula.
For the consumer, the main thing is to be sure that the washing powder meets the purpose, efficiency and economy that the manufacturer promises in the information given on the package. And only independent tests can guarantee the reliability and completeness of the information provided by the manufacturer to consumers.

Tests are not laundry

Functional testing of washing powders is a rather complicated procedure that not all organizations from among those that declare themselves competent in this field can afford.
But it may seem that there is nothing easier than to find out which powder does the laundry better: do not believe, they say, Aunt Asya - wash and compare yourself. But laundry is not a test.
To compare the effectiveness of washing powders objectively - not in sensations, but in numbers! - it is necessary to establish the actual, numerical values ​​​​of the values ​​\u200b\u200bof their washing ability.

Detergency, that is, the ability to wash dirt - the main functional characteristic detergents. It can be measured with extreme precision by comparing the optical properties (reflection) of a tissue sample.
However, the effectiveness of washing is determined not only by the quality of the powder itself. The result ensures the action (and interaction!) of a number of factors. This is a chemical effect on the laundry being washed (provides the washing powder itself), mechanical impact(provided by washing machine), water and temperature. So it turns out that with the same powder, laundry can be washed both better and worse, depending on the action of each of the washing factors separately and their interaction.
The purpose of the tests is to identify the effectiveness of the action on the washing result of one or another specific factor (depending on the task), as they say, “in its pure form”. But in order for the tests to be recognized as correct and their results comparable (comparable), it is necessary to provide technological conditions that distinguish qualified tests from the usual “laundry”.
Let's start with the fact that the samples of the "experimental" tissue must be of the same type, composition, size and, most importantly, absolutely equally contaminated. That is, samples of standard pollution are needed. In Russia, strips (the so-called standard impurities for determining the detergency of laundry detergents), which would be recognized in the world, are not yet produced. This is a product high technology, almost surpassing in complexity those used in the most upscale painting. There are few firms in the world that have mastered the production of standard pollution. Rostest-Moscow uses standard pollution produced by the EMPA Institute (Switzerland) and the WPC Institute (Germany).

Further. If comparative tests of two detergents are carried out, two parallel machines are needed. And they must work, as they say, "nostril to nostril", "in the same breath", so that the advantages of their effectiveness do not provide any of the tested powders and the slightest odds.
The Rostest-Moscow test bench is based on extremely stable Miele washing machines. Keeping abreast of the testing process allows the equipment for recording temperature, water consumption and other parameters, which is additionally equipped with washing machines. Recording equipment and turns washing machines into a test bench.
The detergent is poured in strict accordance with the type, weight of the items to be washed and weighed to the nearest hundredth of a gram. If one powder turns out to be at least a gram more, then its activity will be higher, and therefore, the result will be predetermined not by quality, but by quantity.
An important parameter is the temperature of the water: a difference of even a few degrees, which seems to be insignificant from the point of view of household washing, certainly leads to an increase in the effect of the individual components of the washing powder, and a reduction in time chemical reactions and consequently distort the results.

Maintaining the parameters of the strictly regulated physical and chemical composition of water in both machines is ensured by the water treatment plant. And the washing time is synchronized to the second.
Even the stacking of the load on the machines is carried out "one to one": if in one of them the test sample of the fabric is placed with a fold to the hatch, then in the other it must be laid only in this way and nothing else.
At the finish, to determine the degree of washability, a measuring complex is used, which includes a spectrophotometer - an optical device that determines by the reflection coefficient how much lighter the fabric has become after washing, as well as a computer with the corresponding software. The technique fixes, making “visible”, those numerous color transitions that are not perceived by the human eye.
The use of the apparatus of mathematical statistics helps to eliminate the influence of random factors to the maximum extent possible: data processing in accordance with the Fisher test accepted in world practice leaves no doubt about the reliability and objectivity of assessing the washability of a particular contamination.
Only the fulfillment of these conditions ensures the comparability of the test results and turns the “laundry” into qualified tests.

WASH FACTORS

MECHANICAL IMPACT (WASHING EFFECT):

• ensures the interaction of linen, washing powder and water

CHEMISTRY (WASHING POWDER):

• reduces the surface tension of water
• serves as a binding agent for hardness components in water softening
• is a solvent for contaminants
• has a bleaching effect on the fabric

TEMPERATURE:

• enhances the effect of the individual components of the washing powder
• reduces the time of chemical reactions

WATER:

• moisturizes the fabric
• dissolves laundry detergent
• blurs and removes dirt
• conducts heat

Not everything is new - just refurbished old

In order not to lose in competition, commodity producers are faced with the need to throw a new product on the market as often as possible. It is in the “News” segment that the front line of the struggle for the consumer lies, to whom you always serve something fresh.
Technological progress, however, has not kept up with the unbridled desire of the manufacturer to constantly impress its consumer with something new. You can’t stock up on such a quantity of novelties, and manipulations with “reface” are used: products that are by no means newly created are presented as such by deftly giving them a new face, image. And it passes! Deception, in general, is not great, but - deception! So, a product that has been on the market for a long time, but ... with a slightly changed name, in a new package, and, of course, at a new price, is passed off as a "revolutionary new" without a twinge of conscience!
This, of course, is not only about washing powders. This technique - "Everything is new - just turned old!" - versatile in marketing. The cosmetic “rejuvenation” of the products that made the teeth sore on their lips is presented as a change in the lineup with a corresponding price increase. But in fact, it turns out that the usual and cheaper product of 2-3 years ago is no worse than such a “super novelty”.
Washing powders belong to the category of products in which it is especially difficult to surprise with something fundamentally new, since they all consist of a set of the same components. Nothing fundamentally different has yet been invented. And there is a need for continuous quality improvement.

Manufacturers of detergents, by constantly improving their quality, thereby respond to the improvement of the quality of those products, the use of which leads to the contamination of clothes and other items. The better, more durable paint colors, hair dyes and other potential contaminants of our clothes become, the greater the washing power should be. washing powders. Such a dialectic! When children drew with slate pencils, there was no need for detergents, which are indispensable now - with the advent of felt-tip pens, markers, etc.
Everything bigger problem become products in which strong dyes began to be used. Other drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) today you can paint fences!
An increase in washing ability is achieved by creating a more successful composition with the introduction of additional types of enzymes, providing increased chemical purity of the components and special thoroughness of their mixing. This becomes possible as a result of scientific research and the introduction of high technologies.

Let's talk about tests that confirm high quality detergents, on the example of cooperation in this direction with the Henkel company, which produces the world famous Persil (PERSIL).

Persil vs. Persil. Comparative tests

The Henkel company, not in words, but in deeds, demonstrating respect for its consumer, was one of the first to begin an advertising campaign of its new products with their tests in Rostest-Moscow, which should confirm the reliability of the declared properties and qualities.
The startup began testing synthetic detergent Persil "POWER PERSIL" AUTOMAT produced by a new (at that time) formula in comparison with its own product of the previous generation. The challenge was to get documentary evidence that the new product actually has a more effective cleaning power.
Coffee and tea, wine and juice, grass, chocolate, dirt, fat from hamburgers, cosmetics, carrots, tomatoes, butter... According to statistics, it is this kind of pollution that we most often annoyingly stain our things with. It is clear that the leading manufacturers of synthetic detergents compete primarily and mainly in the removal of precisely this kind of stains.
The program of comparative tests of the new product and the prototype included 20 test cycles for 15 contaminations in two temperature regimes - "Cotton 40°" and "Cotton 60°".
The processing of the obtained data according to the Fisher test stated that the new synthetic detergent Persil "POWER PERSIL" AUTOMAT is characterized by a higher washing ability: the novelty showed the result "higher" in six contaminations in comparison with the synthetic detergent produced earlier, and in nine - even " much higher"

• coffee (significantly higher)
• tea (significantly higher)
• red wine young (above)
• grass (significantly higher)
• chocolate (significantly higher)
• tomato puree (above)
• blood (above)
• grass and dirt (significantly higher)
• red wine (significantly higher)
• pigment + oil (above)
• cosmetics (significantly higher)
• colored olive oil (above)

For those who prefer manual work

For those who prefer washing by hand (as they say, "in a basin"), we present the results of comparative tests of the synthetic detergent of the new formula for hand washing SMS "Persil for hand wash (hand wash)" with the previously produced product. For six pollution, the novelty showed the result “higher”, and for five - “significantly higher”:

• coffee (above)
• tea (significantly higher)
• black currant (significantly higher)
• blueberry juice (significantly higher)
• grass (above)
• chocolate (significantly higher)
• tomato puree (above)
• blood (significantly higher)
• carrots + mashed potatoes (above)
• cosmetics (above)
• hamburger fat (above)

So if one of the above spots appeared on your things, this is not a reason to be seriously upset: in order to restore the purity that was lost, you don’t even need to mess with the washing machine. In this case, it is enough to have a basin and SMS “Persil for hand washing (hand wash)” on hand.

PERSIL vs COMPETITOR

At the next stage, the task was set more sharply: the experts were asked, as they say, to compare the newly appeared PERSIL GOLD with the best analogue available on the Russian market.
Self-assessment of products based on its comparison with analogues is provided by most quality assessment models, but enterprises are extremely reluctant to do so. Competitors often prefer not to notice each other point-blank, preferring to compare their products without risk in advertising campaigns with some abstract, hypothetical (there is even such a definition!) analogue, called slyly “ordinary”. Perhaps this is the first time that a manufacturer has offered to conduct an independent examination of the quality of its products in comparison with a really real and strongest analogue on the market.

The goal was by no means to “lower” a competitor and build your own PR on such anti-advertising - this would be contrary to the ethics of this kind of comparative tests. Therefore, what kind of powder was taken for comparison was not made public. But experts guaranteed that it was not some hypothetical analogue convenient for comparison, but a very real competitor of the same class, “weight category” and price range.
CMC Persil Gold test compared to analogue test in automatic washing machines drum type on the “cotton 60 ° C” program, after processing the results according to the Fisher test, it showed a significantly better washing ability for the following contaminants:
Textile base "Cotton":

• red paint for drawing.

Textile base "Mixed composition (polyester 65% and cotton 35%)":

• rust
• markers (orange, pink)
• hair dye (chestnut N3, medium blond N6, silver blond C10, black N1)
• paint for drawing (red, green).

Textile base "Polyester":

• rust,
• markers (orange, pink, green)
• hair dye (fiery red R15, dark chestnut N2, chestnut N3, medium blond N6, pearl blonde A10, silver blonde C10, black N1)

• paint for drawing (yellow, red, green),
• coffee (CFT BC-2),
• tea (CFT BC-3),
• black currant (CFT CS-12),
• blueberry juice (СFT CS-15),
• red wine (CFT CS-103),
• chocolate drink (СFT CS-44).

What is the hallmark of gold PERSIL

Among the "experimental" detergents was PERSIL GOLD PLUS powder. Its fundamental feature is that it is environmentally friendly - it does not contain phosphates in its composition, which are replaced by a special modified system of components that effectively work against hardness salts and, at the same time, dissolve in water without any problems.
Before launching a new environmentally friendly product on the market, the manufacturer decided to answer, as they say, the question that arises in itself among consumers: will it turn out to be worse in terms of washing ability than its predecessor, albeit less friendly to the environment? The question is, frankly, a burning one. In theory and in words, we are all sincerely for the environment! True, on one condition: if it costs nothing to us personally! If you need to take an extra step to the urn, the piece of paper ends up on the sidewalk. And if the most environmentally friendly powder turns out to be not so “washing” and less economical than non-environmentally friendly, then it will simply become uncompetitive. Such, alas, is the logic of the market. In short, consumers should be sure that by switching to an environmentally friendly detergent, they will not lose in the quality of washing.

In order not to be unfounded in promising statements, Henkel offered Rostest-Moscow to conduct an examination of the general washing ability of the powder of the PERSIL GOLD PLUS ecological formulation and, based on its results, confirm or refute the manufacturer’s statement that it is functionally not inferior to phosphate-containing products.
Tests have shown: PERSIL GOLD PLUS of a phosphate-free formulation does not lose either to its predecessor or to the most powerful analogues (its name is not reported, as required by professional ethics).

Test 1

Persil Gold Plus in comparison with its predecessor Persil Gold, when washed on the "cotton 30 ° C" program, showed a significantly better washing ability in relation to the following soiling applied to 100% cotton textiles:

• chocolate drink (CFT CS-44).
• cherry juice (B&J)
• chocolate ice cream 1 (Asda)
• raspberry juice (Del Monte)
• chocolate milkshake (Frij)
• raspberry ice cream (Tesco)

Test 2

Persil Gold Plus compared to Persil Gold when washed on the "cotton 60 ° C" program showed a significantly better washing ability in relation to the following soiling applied to 100% cotton textiles:

• cherry juice (B&J)
• chocolate ice cream 1 (Asda)
• chocolate ice cream 2 (Carte D'or)
• chocolate ice cream 3 (Vienetta)
• raspberry juice (Del Monte)
• chocolate milkshake (Frijj)

Test 3

Persil Gold Plus in comparison with the best competing analogue when washing on the "cotton 60 ° C" program showed a significantly better washing ability in relation to the following soiling applied to 100% cotton textiles:

• tea (CFT BC-3)
• chocolate drink (CFT CS-44)

Test 4

Persil Gold Plus compared to the best competing analogue when washed on the "cotton 30 ° C" program showed a significantly better washing ability in relation to the following soiling applied to 100% polyester textiles:

• ink (Librolino)

Test 5

Persil Gold Plus compared to the best competing analogue when washed on the "cotton 60 ° C" program showed significantly better washing power in relation to the following soiling applied to 100% polyester textiles:

• sunflower oil (Golden Seed)

Test 6

Persil Gold Plus in comparison with a combination of competing analogues when washing on the "cotton 60 ° C" program showed a significantly better washing ability in relation to the following contaminants:

• raspberry ice cream (Tesco) (textile - 100% cotton)
• ink (Librolino) (textiles - both 100% cotton and 100% polyester)
• sunflower oil ("Golden Seed") (textile - 100% cotton)

Test 7

Persil Gold Plus in comparison with a combination of competing analogues when washing on the "cotton 60 ° C" program showed equal washing power in relation to the following contaminants:

• blueberry juice (CFT CS-15 standard)
• grass (CFT CS-8)
• coffee (CFT BC-2)

• As we have already said, automatic washing machines are designed to use detergents with reduced foaming. Therefore, when washing “automatically”, do not use detergents intended for hand washing, which are specially made with increased foaming. Look for powders that show either a front-loading machine or a loading hatch on the packaging. The word "matic" can be used to designate powders with reduced foaming.

• Keep in mind that excessive foaming with all the ensuing unpleasant consequences also leads to an excess of the manufacturer's recommended dosage of even special, “correct” washing powders. So when using the powder for the first time, even if it says that it is intended for washing machines, but no dosage recommendations are given, we advise you to make sure that the level of foam during washing is not higher than the top edge of the hatch (in front-loading machines). Otherwise, it is wiser to refuse to use it in the future.

• If the machine is not fully loaded, reduce the amount of detergent accordingly.

• Liquid detergents are used for washing at a temperature not exceeding 60 ° C. Their use excludes the use of a prewash cycle, so the amount of detergent recommended on the package refers directly to the main wash cycle.

• When washing in cold water, reduce the amount of detergent: since it dissolves worse than in hot water, then part of it will be wasted.

• Particular attention should be paid to children's washing powder: often the instructions for use recommend pouring children's washing powder directly into the drum directly onto the laundry, and not into a cuvette, like ordinary powders.

• It is better to dilute the conditioner with water, as it is usually thick and the washing machine does not take it completely.

Today it is difficult to imagine the process of washing without washing powder. Modern technology has taken over the routine work, making life easier for a person. The right product chosen will allow you to maintain the quality, appearance of clothing and bed linen, and also extend service life washing machine. Modern market offers a wide range of different detergents. However, not every powder is able to cope with the task. In addition to washing properties, the product must be harmless to the human body and not cause allergic reactions.

Laundry powder: types of products

Manufacturers produce powders for washing by hand and for automatic washing machines. Foaming agents differ. In the first case, it foams better, helping to enhance the action of active ingredients, allowing you to more effectively remove contaminants. Why does excess foam in the washing machine reduce the quality of washing? Strong foaming will not allow the laundry to sink into the water. A large number of bubbles can provoke a breakdown of the machine.

Depending on the type of fabric and the desired result, household chemicals for washing are produced in several versions:

1. Water softening aids.
2. Universal, designed for daily use with medium soiling and stain removal.
3. Special, designed for various fabrics, colored, white linen, silk and wool.
4. With active ingredients that allow you to cope with old stains of organic origin.

Powders for whites contain chlorine or oxygen bleaches. Special components may also be present, which, settling on the surface of the fabric, give additional whiteness. Means for colored laundry contain a large amount of enzymes.

Enzymes corrode stains of protein origin, actively cleaning the fabric.

Pure things do not lose bright colors, but washing woolen items with this product will result in loss of appearance. For such fabrics, a special powder has been developed, with a reduced amount of enzymes. There is a powder for washing black things. It does not wash off the paint and leaves a rich color.

The best washing powder machine: features and rating

There is a wide variety of detergents on the market. According to customer reviews, a rating has been selected best powders. The leading place was taken by Sarma-automatic, Bimax-automatic, Eared Nyan. Sarma is often used to wash white linen. It does an excellent job of removing dirt with the least amount of powder. Its advantage is affordable price. The composition is quite aggressive and can cause allergies.

The choice was made taking into account the following characteristics:

• Powder consumption;
• The quality of washing various stains;
• No allergic reaction;
• Quality of carrying and storage;
• Price policy.

A good result was shown by Bimax, who coped with the task. The powder is intended for washing various fabrics, except for wool and silk. Fairly cheap option. A small disadvantage is poor flushing granules on short wash cycles. Eared nannies, made by manufacturers for children's things. It removes stains well, does not cause allergies, dissolves at low temperatures and is well washed from fabrics.

Those who want to wash a thing with high quality at a low cost of the powder tend to this option.

Ariel - great for stains on various fabrics even in cold water. The manufacturer produces various lines for white, black, colored, children's underwear. Has a pleasant aroma. The composition includes components that protect metal elements from corrosion and scale. Active substances can cause allergies. The price is slightly higher than previous products. Frosch Color powder with German quality, created on a hypoallergenic basis, economically consumed, does not have various odors. Does not cope with old stains, has a high cost. This tool is chosen by families who care about the health of babies.

How to choose a washing powder by composition

When choosing a powder, you need to pay attention to the composition and components included in it. To choose a quality powder, you need to understand for what purposes, and in what water things will be washed. For hard water, you need to use products containing phosphates.

The composition of the powder usually includes:

1. Surface-active elements that affect the level of foaming. The best option is the content of 3 to 5% of these substances. When using these substances, it is necessary to rinse things well in order to avoid allergic reactions of the body.
2. Chemical bleaches that improve the washing of white items. Powders with elements containing chlorine are not recommended.
3. Antisorbents reduce soiling of things after washing.
4. Sulfates and phosphates, which make the water softer, enhancing the action of other active ingredients.
5. Fragrances and fragrances, saturate the linen with a pleasant smell, with poor rinsing, they can cause an allergic reaction.
6. Enzymes contribute to the destruction of mud old age, work when not high temperatures spoil silk and wool.
7. Fluorides and chlorides prevent scale and corrosion on the mechanisms of the washing machine.

Manufacturers offer various analogues of powders in the form of gels and tablet products. Such products have an increased concentration, but are effectively washed at temperatures up to 70 degrees. It is good to use them when washing colored and mixed clothes, putting the machine in the delicate wash mode.

For heavily soiled items, the washing powder must be poured directly into the drum of the machine.

For manual operations it is recommended to take a powder with increased foaming, after soaking things for 20-30 minutes. It is better to choose several products for various washings and linens than to purchase 1 universal powder. It is necessary to pay attention to packaging material. The packaging must be made of polyethylene, excluding moisture penetration.

Brand name washing powder test

To select a quality product, a test purchase of several types of powders for white linen was carried out. The test was carried out for safety for hands and tissues, as well as for the effectiveness of removing stains. The comparison was made 5 well-known brands.

Manufacturers claim that their tool is the best:

1. The brands Procter & Gamble, Henke were tested l and Stupino.
2. The top three in terms of quality are the Big Wash of Stupino, which coped with numerous stains, as well as the brands Bimax, and Ariel.

Attention, only TODAY!

Tell

Today, it is rather difficult to imagine that before the invention of washing machines, washing could take up to 15% of women's time. Now all hard work machines took over, but not many housewives can say that the washing process has become more efficient, because really good result depends on the correct choice of washing powder.

Unlike quite recently, when our great-grandmothers did laundry in best case laundry soap we have a huge selection household chemicals. Among the many advertised products, it is quite difficult to find one that is most effective for any type of pollution. It turns out that the appearance of the first potent powders is associated with the industry of World War I.

Almost a century ago, Germany began to synthesize such special substances as surfactants or detergents. These special molecules have unique qualities dual action - dissolving in water (hydrophilic) and in fats (hydrophobic). Thus, the latter are embedded in pollution, and the second hydrophilic part helps to remove it and dissolve in water.

The choice of powder according to the type of washing

There are two main types of powder products - richly foaming for delicate hand washing and with low foaming for automatic machines. It would seem that there is no significant difference between such products for hand and machine washing, because their composition is almost identical. However, it is the type of washing that needs to be paid attention in the first place, since the result obtained directly depends on it.

Powder for washing by hand

Such powders always contain additional substances for enhanced formation of washing foam. This foam not only enhances the action of the active ingredients, but also facilitates the mechanical removal of stains by hand. And it is for this reason that the use of highly foaming household chemicals is not recommended for use in washing machines.

Washing machine powder

Excess foam in the machine, oddly enough, on the contrary, can significantly reduce the quality of the entire wash. When the drum rotates, the laundry rises and falls back into the water, which in itself replaces mechanical work, however, the large foaming will keep the laundry on the surface and prevent it from completely submerging in the water. For direct loading machines, special attention should be paid to the special corresponding mark on the packaging, as an abundance of foam can leak out and lead to breakage or short circuit.

Baby washing powder

Most parents, having trusted fashion commercials, use household chemicals marked “for baby clothes” and are confident in their safety and hypoallergenicity. Such products are available for both hand and machine washing. However, you should carefully look at the composition of such products in order to avoid the content of not entirely gentle substances in them.

There are several mandatory factors that you need to pay attention to when buying laundry detergent for baby clothes:

• Fast solubility.
• The most natural composition based on baby soap.
• A minimum of flavored fragrances or their complete absence.
• Excellent water rinse.
• No harsh chemical additives.
• No phosphates, bleaches or chlorine.
• A note that the product can be used for newborns.

The composition of the washing powder

According to the purpose of use, all household chemicals for washing can also be divided into groups:

• Auxiliary - designed for subsequent processing and softening of fabrics.
• Normal - designed for continuous washing of moderately soiled laundry.
• Strong products with active ingredients - designed for pre-soaking and removing heavy dirt and stains of various nature.
• Special - designed for washing woolen items, delicate, black and colored linen at a temperature of 30-40 degrees, may contain color fixatives.
• Universal - designed for continuous washing of linen at a temperature of 40-60 degrees for medium and high degrees of soiling and active stain removal.

Based necessary way applications, all household laundry chemicals may contain the following components:

1. Anionic surface-active elements or surfactants. Contained in almost any household chemicals, the amount of which will directly affect foaming and the efficiency of removing contaminants. The optimal amount of such substances is considered to be from 2 to 5%. Such powder formulations must be thoroughly rinsed out, otherwise they may cause skin irritations and allergic reactions.
2. Antisorbents. Cellulose compounds that prevent fabrics from absorbing future soiling after washing.
3. Bleachers (chemical and optical). Helps with washing white clothes, but destroys enzymes and is rarely included in the composition modern means. Such chemical elements contain chlorine or peroxide and are good at removing stains when pre-soaked. Chlorine is not recommended for use when washing natural fabrics. Active oxygen with peroxide in the composition allows you to keep the brightness of colored natural fabrics longer. Optical bleaches are found in almost all laundry detergents and do not effectively clean fabrics, but contain dyes that give the linen a blue tint with a white effect.
4. Synthetic flavors, phthalates or fragrances. Helps neutralize all odors chemical elements, and also attached to linen pleasant aromas. The saturation of the smell directly indicates the quality of the rinse. Highly scented products can cause allergic reactions.
5. Phosphates or sulfates. Able to soften hard water to improve the quality of the impact of other active ingredients (surfactants) and prevent the appearance of limescale and scale in the washing machine. The norm for the content of phosphates is considered to be 5-10%, however, in European countries the use of such environmentally harmful components is prohibited. To neutralize these substances, it is recommended to increase the rinse program up to 5-7 times.
6. chlorides and fluorides. Anti-corrosion components increase disinfection and oxidation processes that prevent the formation of scale and plaque in the machine. May cause severe irritation of the skin and mucous membranes.
7. Colored granules for foaming. Virtually harmless substances that increase the effectiveness of surfactant particles.
8. Enzymes or supplements. Recommended for pre-soaking difficult stains. They break down protein and fatty contaminants, which work perfectly only in cold water from 30 to 50 degrees and are completely destroyed at high temperatures. temperature conditions. These elements act very destructively on the woolen and silk fibers of the fabric.

Washing powder release forms

Today's wide range of modern products offers several forms of their release for washing:

• Granules.
• Liquid concentrate or gel.
• Powder.
• Dissolvable tablets.

Liquid laundry detergent

An alternative to powder products is the liquid concentrated composition that is popular today. Such a tool contains many times more active elements and can become very economical, despite the high price. These products may also include conditioning agents to soften fabrics at the same time.

When choosing such a tool, you should, first of all, pay attention to the percentage of water and active elements in the composition. At a low concentration, the product will not foam enough and will not effectively cope with heavy contaminants. High-quality liquid products have a slight odor, which indicates high requirements to its production.

How and what washing powder to choose?

There are several basic principles for choosing a quality laundry detergent:

• For light soiling and when washing children's clothes, use less strong detergents and in small quantities.
• For washing clothes in cold water, use compositions with enzymes, and phosphate ones in smaller quantities, as they do not dissolve well in water and remain on clothes.
• To wash stubborn dirt, it is recommended to pour the product directly into the drum of the machine, and not into a special compartment.
• Liquid gels and other easily soluble laundry detergents work effectively only at temperatures up to 60 degrees without pre-washing and are used strictly in the quantities indicated on the package.
• It is better to slightly dilute liquid products of a thick consistency with water beforehand, since the concentrate may not be completely washed out of the compartment.
• Buy a high-foaming powder for hand washing or less foaming for the machine, especially with direct loading.

If you prefer to use products with phosphates, then try to reduce their harmful effects:

1. Use a product with the lowest percentage of phosphates in the composition.
2. Reduce the soaking time and the washing process itself, dilute the product with water as much as possible and avoid contact with the skin of the hands.
3. Rinse thoroughly for about 8 times hot water at a temperature of at least 50-60 degrees.

The best washing powder

Scientific studies have shown that phosphates found in household chemicals can cause allergic reactions, irritate the mucous membranes and respiratory tract, and have a negative impact on the environment. Therefore, new generation powders and gels do not contain phosphates. However, these environmentally friendly products are more expensive.

In connection with such negative facts, phosphate-free products are currently in great consumer demand. Such products wash off pollution even at cold temperature conditions and do not leave stains from chemical components on things. All constituent components dissolve without residue in water, therefore they are completely harmless and do not require additional rinses.

Phosphate-free products are environmentally friendly and cannot cause allergic reactions even in newborns. At the same time, linen is perfectly disinfected, and pathogens and bacteria are completely destroyed. The liquid concentrate of such a product is quite economical - only 2 tsp. per kilogram of linen.

The main advantages of using phosphate-free powders:

• High efficiency at any temperature.
• Harmless to any type of fabric.
• Good solubility in water and complete rinsing.
• Unlimited period of use.
• Lack of smell.
• Absence negative impact on the epithelium.
• Preventing the formation of destructive scale and limescale in machines.
• Economic consumption when using.

Video review of experts on washing powders

A detailed video will help you learn how to choose the right composition for washing in an automatic machine with various contaminants:

Washing powder is one of the frequently advertised products. But the most the best advertisement, this is the one that the hostesses pass to each other as advice. So our readers tell us which washing powders, in their opinion, are worth buying.

Tony
I wash with caress .... I'm satisfied .....

trendy
I buy liquid Ariel - the one where you need to draw this liquid into the lid and put it right into the drum. very satisfied!

Kores
I also buy Ariel. I tried a lot and Ariel, and Persil, and Omo, and Dixan, and Coral. Different types powders and tablets, and liquid products. After a long use of Persil for white linen, I bought Ariel and still immediately saw the difference - Ariel washes better. For colored linen, I always buy liquid products. In this regard, I like Persil gel. So for white linen, I have Ariel in the first place, then Persil. I can't say for color yet. I have been using Persil for a very long time, I want to buy Ariel. Try. The last time I washed it with liquid Ariel was about two years ago. And for woolen things I always buy woolite.

No longer Baby
Tide is nothing, but somehow I washed light-colored trousers and the blue crumbs did not dissolve in the powder and were imprinted on the trousers with specks, though it was still in my first year in my first year, everything was once and was not known, but in general a good expensive powder, I like the smell.

Expectant mother
And I really, really, really like Arieldi, well, I'm very satisfied.

anochka
Tide doesn't like it at all. Too much optical brightener, laundry blue-gray. Ariel likes it, but once bought a fake one. I recently made a discovery, bought Sarma-automatic powder, for white linen, it costs a penny, so everything was snow-white after it. I want to buy more, only he has gone somewhere (I bought in Auchan). More powder "E"

not bad

Gallka
Tried a lot of different brands. Good memories from Ariel, Persil. From Tide, alas, negative emotions. Now, oddly enough, I got hooked on the new Dosya with the smell, in my opinion, of the Alpine meadows. And you don't need an air conditioner. But I already miss Persil.

Sakhalinochka
I would gladly exchange a 9kg pack of Tide for a blue pack of "Gloss" powder, which was sold 20 years ago by a German production. Well, this is not a powder - a real fairy tale. And what is "Gloss" now? I want to cry, honestly. And 5 years ago there was such a powder produced in St. Petersburg (in my opinion this city stood on a pack) "Henko". But now I don't see it for sale. I can not find a GOOD powder for colored laundry for an automatic machine. Recently I use the Myth-fresh color. But he's not the same as he used to be.

Alessia
Reflect, Australian powder in red bags. Super!!!

Irochka
omo but him. Unfortunately, sellers do not like. When I visit Russia, I always buy two or three packs to take with me. And also powder "E", also made according to English technology (usually Polish production) is decent.

Gallka
After E, the underwear smells strange! I stopped using it after the first try.

Ksyu_SHA
Recently, I really like Polish powders with the addition of soap: Lanza and Vizir. Washes well and clothes smell delicious

Asmodej
Ariel, and automatic, and for hand washing ....

adg-val
BiMax for vending machine Like. And recently I bought Vanish stain remover in a jar. I add now when washing or sometimes I soak white. Removes even old stains and yellowness from white fabrics.

VANILLA
Ariel or Persil.

Lie
I use Witte Reus very satisfied I like it a lot

Lena, just Lena
Previously, I only washed Persil Sensitive, but now I don’t see it. It was much more pleasant for the body (I am allergic to chemicals), and without a corrosive smell. Now I'm washing with Ariel, but I'm not very happy. I didn’t like the board at all, except that the price is good

Eclair
and I wash with liquid powders. super. I forgot what the company is called, there is such a green frog on the logo, but Frolsh remembered.

Hedgehog
Washing powder - Denis or Myth (to be honest, well, I don’t see the difference between cheap and Ariel), especially when washing in a typewriter.

Oroya
Washing powder - after all, Ariel, I see the difference in myself, I tried it different variants and now only Ariel

Isolde
For washing I use only Luxus, at one time I still bought Reflect or something like that, but I haven’t seen it on sale for a long time

natusick
for children - BiMax Baby, when it runs out of Persil Sensitive, for white - BiMAx Professional, for color - Dosia, liquid Persil, for wool - Cashmere. To all this Calgon, if stains, then Vanish

Marinula
Another cool product Woolane (Woolane) like so, I have sweaters like new ones I only wash with them, but I like liquid more

Assol
I wash Ariel in cold water - 35 * and noticed an amazing effect. greasy kitchen towels and collars on men's shirts wash much better than when I washed at 60 *. Just exceptionally wonderful and nothing sheds. And there was a time when I, crazy, washed at 90 *, sort of like almost boiling. The electricity consumption is huge, but the effect is worse and the laundry had to be sorted by color. And now I erase blue - white - pink all together.

aniger
Girls, and I, now, have been "hooked" on Dosya for three years now. For both machine and hand wash. It seems to me that, in any case, he is no worse, and, in my opinion, better than Tide and Ariel. Washes almost everything, rinses well. I keep the remains of Ariel in a locker for my brother, who simply does not recognize other powders ...
