 Great book even for a seasoned pro Sep 08, 2009
I have about six feet worth of books on chemicals and formulating detergent blends, representing thousands of dollars invested. This book did more to boil down to the nuts and bolts of the blending business than any of those other books. Information that took me years to glean from countless resources was found in Urban's book... in a well organized manner. He even had a few things that I'd never thought about. I was raised in the chemical industry and have owned my own cleaning chemical company for over 20 years. I wish this book had been available back then. While I would have liked to see some "green" formulation content, it is still very MUCH a worthy investment.

Excellent work for the price Feb 25, 2009
There a few good benchmark detergent formulation books out there but most are way too expensive. This book is very informative on the techniques of blending as well as giving NUMEROUS examples to establish a platform for experimentation. The only thing I wish the book had was more of Dave's adventure in establishing his self in the business. But a quick visit to his website and an email later he was very forthcoming with details. He is a no nonsense personable guy and he organized the book well. Dave, might I suggest a second edition with some nonpetroleum ecofriendly surfactants?

 Good overwiew but really basic Oct 27, 2008
It is a good book that gives a general overview but it is very basic for any scientists or formulators in the home care bussiness

Excellent Feb 12, 2007
Practical guide to chemical compounding, with plenty of formulas. Simple and mostly non-technical. Good indexes.
