Powder "Biolan": its types and features

Washing powder "Biolan" is often found in stores that sell household chemicals. We are interested in what a detergent powder should be in general according to GOST 25644-96, and whether all kinds of Biolan powder meet its requirements. Now it is produced according to TU-2381-107-00336562-2007, which makes it easier for the manufacturer to circumvent the stringent requirements of the state standard.

Expert evaluation of Biolan powder for washing machines

For the examination that was conducted in 2012, a plastic bag weighing 2 kg 400 g was taken. As a result, it was found out that Biolan powder does not have visible defects. However, it has a detergent capacity of only 34.3%, and the norm is 85%. Perhaps by 2017, manufacturers have improved the quality of Biolan.

Standard detergent composition

In the detergent powder, the following components are mandatory:

• Surfactants (surfactants): ionic and non-ionic. Combining them in different quantities, manufacturers allow the powder to wash out various impurities.
• Electrolytes, phosphates and sodium salts. Electrolytes enhance the action of surfactants. Phosphates soften water and allow PAWs to penetrate deeper into the impurities. Sodium salts, replacing phosphates, reduce the cost of powders, but reduce the degree of purification.
• Enzymes allow cleaning off protein and fatty contamination.
• Optical brighteners really do not lighten the fabric. It only seems whiter.
• Chemical brighteners really destroy the dirt and further disinfect it.
• Sulphates. Practically do not participate in washing, but only give more weight to the powder. Make it less efficient and cheaper.
• Foam regulators.

All these components are included in the detergent "Biolan". Only the exact percentage of them, of course, we do not know.

Handwash

Powder "Biolan", like all the others, it is better to pour not on the eye, but at the rate that the producer has provided. This mistress kills two birds with one stone: the excessive amount of detergent is not spent, and the hands and the respiratory tract are protected from the harmful effects of its constituents. If the word "bio" is added to the name of the powder, then it is better to wear gloves. Enzymes not only dissolve stains from food and drinks, but also actively harm the skin.

Foam, which is formed during washing, during the friction of the product captures particles of dirt, and antiresorbents do not allow it to re-adhere to the fabric. As a result, with heavy soiling, the foam seems to fall off, and the water becomes cloudy. Before washing, pre-soak thoroughly soiled items. The powder "Biolan Econom Expert" is good for processing all fabrics, except wool and natural silk.

For washing machine

During mechanical washing, detergents with reduced foaming are used. A large amount of foam can lead to depressurization of the machine and its failure. Therefore for the washing machine it is necessary to choose a powder "Biolan-automatic machine". Its additional name is "Econom Expert". If the machine is fully loaded and the laundry is dirty, then a measuring cup should be used. If the tissues are very heavily contaminated, then two doses of powder are taken. For high-quality washing, you must select the correct temperature mode. For white and very dirty objects, hot water is used, for black and other fabrics of dark colors - cold, and it is good to turn them inside out. The rest is erased in warm water. So the fabric itself will last longer, and the brightness of its coloring is the general rule of washing in Biolan and other detergents.
