Effective, residue free washing has long been a result sought by automatic dishwasher users. Understanding the different processes and mechanisms in the wash phases of an automatic dishwashing cycle, which lead to the formation of spots and filming on dishware is important to enable the development of superior automatic dishwashing products and ensure consumer delight. This becomes critical as colder and shorter cycles become the norm, as part of the initiative of enhancing sustainability.
