Hand dishwashing detergents mildness

Liquid detergents based on Pilot Calsoft, Cal suds and Calfoam surfactants produce safe, effective suds with excellent grease-cutting properties for hand dishwashing. Detergents containing Calamide C are especially mild to sensitive skin. 

In summary, some ways to increase mildness of a hand dishwashing detergent are to... 

There are several important physical and chemical parameters that characterize a surfactant and determine how it will perform in a dishwashing detergent. These parameters inclnde its critical micelle concentration, ability to pack at an air, oil, or solid interface, and ability to lower interfacial tension. Yet another important parameter is the extent to which varions snrfactants interact with each other to provide synergistic benefits. These fundamental characteristics determine how well the surfactant or snrfactant mixture will remove grease, how well it will foam, and even how irritating/mild it will be on hands. 

Hand dishwashing liqnids are expected to clean all types of soils from dishware, have copious long-lasting foam, be mild to hands, and have a pleasant fragrance. These primary functional attributes are a result of the surfactant mixture used in the product. An excellent review of all types of surfactants used in detergents and their properties and applications is given in Ref 4. The major surfactants utilized in hand dishwashing liquids are described here.
