A novel ecofriendly polymer synthesized using starch, glycerol, sorbitol and maleic anhydride was found to be biodegradable having BOD to COD Ratio 0.5976. After ensuring its biodegradability and HLB Ratio we have decided to use it for the detergent formulation. The powder detergents formulated using various other components shows good performance keeping LABS percentage. The functional parameters of detergents performance are comparable and sometimes better than commercial sample ex. Surf excel. The pollution causing chemicals like LABS,EDTA,STPP are being reduced small level. This is step towards replacement petroleum products with green ecofriendly, renewable products.
