Polymeric surfactants are important part of detergent formulation. Beginning as a partial replacement for environmentally undesirable phosphates as co-builder, polymers have several important benefits that enhance the laundering process. The polymers in detergent for the function of soil release, dye-transfer inhibition and enzymes that remove stains. STPP is very important in detergent formulation due to its sequestering property. Maleic vinyl ether was the first polymer used in detergent formulation as anti-redeposition agent in 1975. The extensive usage of petroleum products develops a global pressure on petroleum products. Moreover, these materials are big threat to the safe and healthy environment. In these circumstances we restrict the use of petroleum products by replacing them with renewable resources of natural origin. These Ecofriendly polymers have been synthesized form Sugar, Starch, Glycerol, Sorbitol, on the basis of their kinetic study and analyzed for different test, the best composition is used for the replacement of petroleum product in Powder and Liquid Detergents and compared with the commercial products.
