As the other cleaning materials, detergents is the fruit of technological advances that make use of the chemical byproduct of petroleum refining, combined with other chemicals such as phosphate, silicate, dye, and fragrance ingredients.
circa 1960's, early-generation detergent appeared using surface activating chemicals (surfactants) Alkyl Benzene Sulfonate (ABS) which is able to produce foam. However, due to the difficult nature of the ABS is broken down by microorganisms in the soil surface, eventually replaced with a compound of Linear Alkyl Sulfonate (LAS) are believed to be relatively more familiar with the environment.
In many countries around the world use has been banned and replaced ABS with LAS. While in Indonesia, the rules regarding the prohibition of the use of ABS is still outstanding. Some of the reasons is the use of ABS in detergent products, among others, for their low cost, stability in the form of cream / pasta and abundant foam.
The use of soap as a cleaning agent diluted with water in mountainous areas or swamp the former residential areas often do not produce foam. This is because the nature of soap that will not produce foam when dissolved in hard water (water containing certain metals or lime). However, the use of detergent with water that is hard, will still produce an abundant foam.
Soap or detergent dissolved in water in the washing process, will form the emulsion with dirt that will be wasted when flushing. But there are mistaken opinion that the more abundant foam will make laundry soap water be cleaner.
Foam with a large surface area can indeed absorb dirt dust, but the presence of surfactant, the cleaning can be performed without the need for foam.
Deliberately formed opinion that the foam showed abundant labor resources detergent is misleading. So, the washing process does not depend on whether or not the foam or less and the number of foam produced.
The ability of these detergent cleaning power can be increased if the laundry is heated because of the power of enzymes and bleach will be effective. However, washing with hot water will cause color to fade clothing. So for colored clothes, you should not use the water warm / hot.
Use of detergents are also often cause new problems, especially for users who have a sensitive nature. Users detergents may experience skin irritation, skin rashes, or skin becomes even more heat after using detergent.
