Why is it masculine?
Detergentes is masculine in Portuguese. While it does derive from Latin "detergens" (present participle of "detergere," meaning to wipe away), the gender retention explanation is incomplete.

The word is masculine primarily because of the "-ente" suffix pattern in Portuguese, which has become conventionally masculine, rather than solely because of Latin gender preservation.
