Dish Care

Dish CareLubrizol providesinnovative solutions to deliver superior Dish Care consumer experience. Our technologies allow to formulate high performance manual and automatic dishwashing detergents..

Our Noverite™ SR100 ester is a readily biodegradable technology to enhance tough soil removal for hand dishwashing liquids.

Our Rheology technologies such as Carbopol® and Novethix™ polymers can be used to deliver:
Nice texture and smooth flow for difficult-to-thicken and mild formulas
Suspension of decorative or functional particles
Reduced plastic packaging and water transport by using dilutable refills

Our Noverite™ K-700 polymers can be used in automatic dishwashing detergents to provide anti-filming and anti-spotting performance through chelation, dispersion and crystal growth inhibition. 

We also offer a number of anionic, nonionic, amphoteric, and cationic surfactants for excellent detergency and foaming properties.

We leverage innovation, polymer science, formulation expertise and testing capabilities to create high-performance solutions and contribute to achieving superior dish care consumer experience.

Formulation Name Formulation Number Description
Clear Manual Dish Gel

This high clarity manual dish detergent with gel consistency catches the attention of consumers who desire sparkling clean kitchen dishes. Novethix™ HC 200 polymer ensures the delivery of high aesthetics and rheological performance without affecting the stability of the formulation. Synergistic thickening with sodium chloride allows for optimized cost-in-use formulations. This unique gel dish formulation is essential to maintain good kitchen hygiene.
Dilutable 3-5x Concentrate Hand Dishwashing Liquid Refill

Reduce plastic packaging and water transport by using this hyperconcentrate hand dishwashing liquid refill. This nature-derived formula is clear and easy to pour, it is readily dilutable in water by hand shaking. Novethix™ HC220S polymer builds viscosity upon dilution, to provide a nice texture and smooth flow to the diluted hand dishwashing liquid. Chemoxide™ CAW surfactant combined with SLES produces a product with copious and rich foam.
Dish Pre-Treatment Spray Cleaner

This alkaline degreasing spray gel sticks to surfaces for improved contact time and efficacy. Novethix™ L-10 polymer enables the clear and rich gel texture with shear-thinning rheology for excellent sprayability and no drip on vertical surfaces. This spray gel can be used for pre-treatment of heavily soiled dishes or hard surfaces, for easy removal of encrusted food residues on pans, pots, ovens and grills.
Economy Manual Dishwashing Liquid

Novethix™ HC 200 polymer can be used in conjunction with electrolytes to deliver cost effective rheology control along with crystal clear, premium quality aesthetics in low-cost detergent formulations.
Hand Dishwashing Liquid with Suspended Beads (EU)

The purpose of this formulation is to demonstrate the benefits of Carbopol® Aqua 30 polymer in a hand dishwashing liquid. This polymer imparts efficient thickening with shear thinning rheology to this formulation. It provides reduce splashing, desired flow properties and excellent clarity. In addition, it delivers suspension of insoluble materials such as encapsulated active ingredients, silicones, pearlizing agents, scrubs or air bubbles. These attributes improve the overall product quality and consumer visual perception.
High Clarity, Glucoside Containing Manual Dish Detergent

Sparkling dishes with pleasant sensory as a goal can be achieved with Novethix™ HC200 polymer. High clarity and smooth flowing glucoside surfactant based manual dishwash can be economically thickened with Novethix™ HC200 polymer. The combination of Sulfochem™ ES-70US surfactant and Chemoxide™ LO surfactant provides excellent cleaning power in the formulation. This formulation yields an excellent quality product with unique visual appearance.
High Clarity, Smooth Flowing Economy Dishwashing Liquid

Deliver high clarity and smooth flow properties in a low cost hand dishwashing liquid by using Novethix™ HC200 polymer. In addition, Sulfochem™ ES-70US surfactant, Chemoxide™ LO surfactant and Chembetaine™ C surfactant provide a quality foam profile and excellent cleaning capability. These features improve the overall product quality and provide unique visual appeal when applied to a cleaning sponge. The product has excellent hold out and does not disappear into the sponge.
Low Solids, High Clarity Economy Dishwashing Liquid

Deliver high clarity and rich smooth flow properties in a 10 weight % surfactant dishwashing liquid formulation by using Novethix™ HC200 polymer.  Sulfochem™ ES-70US surfactant is a high active, cost effective surfactant which provides excellent flash foaming and cleaning performance. Chemoxide™ LO surfactant increases cleaning performance and enhances the removal of particulates. These features improve the overall product quality and provide unique visual appeal when applied to cleaning sponge or directly to washing sink water.
Low Surfactant Hand Dishwashing Liquid with Suspended Beads

Carbopol® Aqua 30 polymer delivers stable suspension of insoluble materials such as decorative beads, encapsulated active ingredients, pearlizing agent or abrasives. This rheology modifier provides excellent clarity, shear-thinning rheology and smooth flow to this low surfactant detergent. Carbopol Aqua 30 polymer is used in this easy-to-pour hand dishwashing liquid to provide suspension of Vectortec™ A2 Millicapsules enriched with Vitamin E.
Nature-Based Dishwashing Liquid

This high efficiency manual hand dish wash formula features non-ethoxylated surfactants and is based on a high level of vegetable based ingredients. Sulfochem™ CS-BZ surfactant is dervied from whole coconut oil made without palm kernel derviatives which provides excellent flash foaming and cleaning performance. Chembetaine™ ACB surfactant provides equally good formaing in hard and soft water and works synergistically with the other ingredients to improve overall mildness. Chemoxide™ CAW surfactant adds high flash foam, increases cleaning performance and enhances the removal of particulates.
Nature-Based High Clarity Dishwashing Liquid

This high efficiency manual hand dish wash formula features a high level of vegetable derived ingredients yielding a high RCI score. Novethix™ HC200 polymer provides high clarity, smooth flowing rheology to this ”natural” dishwashing liquid. Sulfochem™ ES-70US surfactant  is a high active, cost effective surfactant which provides excellent flash foaming and cleaning performance. Chembetaine™ ACB surfactant provides equally good foaming in hard and soft water and works synergistically with the other ingredients to improve overall mildness.  Chemoxide™ CAW surfactant adds high flash foam, increases cleaning performance and enhances the removal of particulates.
