Dish Wash

Dishwashing liquid, commonly referred to as dish soap or dish detergent, is a cleaning solution created especially for cleaning kitchenware and dishes. It is made to efficiently cut through grease and remove meal leftovers. Dishwashing liquids exist in a variety of formulas and smells, but their fundamental ingredients are typically the same.

The following are the main components of dishwashing liquid:

1. The main cleaning agents in dishwashing liquids are surfactants. Surfactants lessen water's surface tension, enabling it to permeate and loosen food and oil residue from dishes.

2. Proteases and amylases, two types of enzymes that aid in the breakdown of the proteins and starches found in food remnants, may be present in some dishwashing liquids.

3. Builders: To increase the cleaning power of dishwashing liquids, builders like sodium carbonate or citric acid are added. They aid in removing mineral buildup, taking on challenging stains, and preventing the development of scale on dishes and utensils.

4. Dishwashing liquids frequently include perfumes to give dishes a nice scent while being washed. However, for individuals with preferences or sensitivity, there are other unscented choices available.

5. Preservatives are added to dishwashing liquid to extend its shelf life and stop germs and mould from growing there. 

It's crucial to use dishwashing liquid according to the directions on the container because different brands and formulations may have varied usage recommendations.
