liquid detergent

Fluid washing soap

Liquid detergent is a cleaning agent in fluid form, typically used for washing dishes or laundry.

Unlike bar soap or powder detergent, it dissolves readily in water and can be measured precisely: Add a capful of liquid detergent to the wash.

The term usually implies synthetic surfactants rather than traditional soap.
