PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a composition for transparent detergents which can homogeneously disperse water-insoluble powder in a composition with fluidity while continuing to maintain transparency, has an excellent storage stability, and can give excellent detergency peculiar to a higher fatty acid salt-containing detergent and a refreshed feeling of use after cleansing.SOLUTION: The invention provides a composition for transparent detergents comprising the following components (A)-(E). Component (A): a higher fatty acid salt whose neutralization rate is 100%, component (B): an ampholytic surfactant, component (C): an anion thickener containing (meth)acrylic acid as a monomer component, component (D): a nonionic thickener and/or an acidic polysaccharide thickener, and component (E): water-insoluble powder. The content of the component (A) is 3 mass% or more to 20 mass% or less, the content of the component (C) is 2 mass% or more to 4 mass% or less, and the viscosity in normal temperature is 4,000 mPa s or less.COPYRIGHT: (C)2015,JPO&INPIT【課題】透明性を維持したまま、水不溶性粉体を流動性のある組成物中で均一に分散配合することができ、優れた保存安定性を有するとともに、高級脂肪酸塩配合洗浄剤特有の優れた洗浄力と洗浄後のさっぱりとした使用感が得られる透明洗浄剤用組成物の提供。【解決手段】成分(A):中和率が100%である高級脂肪酸塩、成分(B):両性界面活性剤、成分(C):(メタ)アクリル酸をモノマー成分として含む陰イオン性増粘剤、成分(D):非イオン性増粘剤および/又は酸性多糖増粘剤、並びに成分(E):水不溶性紛体を含み、前記成分(A)の含有量が3質量%以上、20質量%以下であり、前記成分(C)の含有量が2質量%以上、4質量%以下であり、常温での粘度が4,000mPa・s以下であることを特徴とする透明洗浄剤用組成物とする。【選択図】なし
