There might be a connection to Roundup. Most people don't realize that Monsanto was working on making a new detergent when they found other uses for the product.

A quote from the article:

The Start of Roundup’s Discovery

Franz says the glyphosate as a herbicide story began in 1960, long before he was working in the Ag Division. “The thing that started all this off was that a couple of chemists in the Inorganic Division of Monsanto had developed a new process for making a class of compounds called tertiary aminomethylphosphonic acids. This class of compounds were of interest as sequestering agents, detergents, and complexing agents.”
