A composition, kit and method useful in a multi-stage washing method for cleaning an aluminum or aluminum alloy containers while reducing hazardous exposure of workers to toxic levels of hydrogen fluoride or ammonium bifluoride employs a stable, neutralized ammonium bifluoride-containing accelerator solution for addition to an acidic wash solution.

Provided is a means capable of sufficiently removing organic residues on the surface of an object to be polished after polishing. A surface treatment composition includes a polymer having a building block represented by Formula (1) in [Chemical Formula 1], a chelating agent, and water and is used to treat the surface of an object to be polished after polishing, and the chelating agent has at least one of a phosphonic acid group and a carboxylic acid group.

In Formula (1), R.sup.1 is a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms; and R.sup.2 is a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms.

Bio-based surfactants have great opportunity for use in a variety of applications such as laundry detergents, industrial cleaners, adjuvants, and oil & gas. Surfactants in these applications can be nonionic, anionic, cationic, or amphoteric. Utilizing high oleic soybean oil as a platform chemical, a variety of surfactants and properties can be produced. While early work focused solely on surfactant use in laundry cleaning and fracking, recent work has expanded functional groups and application evaluations in hard surface cleaning.

The current invention expands on Battelle's high oleic soybean oil (HOSO) surfactant technology. Use of HOSO overcomes the limitations of regular soybean oil and significantly reduces or eliminates undesirable byproducts in most chemistries. However, with use of select reagents, a few candidates were achievable with regular epoxidized soybean oil (ESO). The HOSO surfactant platform offers several key advantages including: a highly water miscible (not typical of C18 surfactants) and water stable surfactant; ability to adjust and vary hydrophilic-lipophilic (HLB) values for stain removal performance; and increased biodegradability without toxic or persistent by-products.

The invention relates to compositions, methods of manufacture, and methods for reducing metal corrosion during alkaline cleaning. In particular, the method employs an alkylamino hydroxy acid, secondary amine, or combination thereof in alkaline cleaning of hard surfaces.

The present disclosure relates to rheology modified, low foaming aqueous antimicrobial compositions. The compositions are phase stable under acidic conditions, and do not need to be rinsed from the surface to which they are applied. The present disclosure further relates to methods of use thereof.

The present invention relates generally to detergent compositions and, more specifically, to detergent compositions containing a branched surfactant.

The present disclosure relates to cleaning compositions that are used to clean semiconductor substrates. These cleaning compositions can remove the defects/contaminants arising from previous processing on the semiconductor substrates and thereby make the substrates appropriate for further processing. The cleaning compositions described herein primarily contain at least one pH adjusting agent and at least one biosurfactant.

Described herein is a process for manufacturing ethoxylated polyethylene-imines. Also described herein are the ethoxylated polyethyleneimines and methods for using the ethoxylated polyethyleneimines.
