The present invention discloses a preparation method and application of anti-cat-and-dog allergen finishing composition solution. The preparation process is as follows: Japanese Diospyros rhombifolia Hemsl and Canangaodorata petals were washed for 3˜5 times, ground and ultrasonically treated to prepare suspension liquid; the suspension liquid was treated by microwave and then centrifuged to obtain light yellow supernate; the light yellow supernate was performed with membrane separation treatment to form a mixed extract of Japanese Diospyros rhombifolia Hemsl and Canangaodorata; the obtained mixed extract of Japanese Diospyros rhombifolia Hemsl and Canangaodorata was mixed with silver ion compound, Eucalyptus oil, fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether, sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate, sodium laurate, sodium stearate, citric acid, serine protease, pectinase, cellulase, xylanase, beta-glucanase, glycerol, cetyldimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride, chitosan, pigment, plant essence, preservative and deionized water evenly, according to a certain mass share ratio; ultrasonically vibrating the mixture at a certain temperature for a certain time, and cooling the mixture to room temperature to obtain the anti-cat-and-dog allergen finishing composition solution. The preparation method of the composition is simple, and can be used for daily spraying and wiping, and can also be used in the washing or drying process of clothes.

The invention relates to the field of removing various types of deposits from a surface, specifically to means for cleaning metallic and ceramic surfaces of industrial equipment, and can be used for removing deposits, such as oxides of metals (iron, chromium, nickel, etc.), carbonate and salt deposits, asphaltene-resin-paraffin deposits and deposits of a petroleum nature, and deposits of an organic and biological deposits. The proposed solution for removing various types of deposits contains hydrogen peroxide, complexone, an anti-foaming agent, water-soluble calixarene and water in the following ratio: hydrogen peroxide, a catalyst for decomposing peroxide compounds, an antifoaming agent, complexone, water-soluble calixarene and water in the following quantitative ratio:2-35% by mass of hydrogen peroxide; 2-20% by mass of a catalyst for decomposing peroxide compounds; 3-10% by mass of complexone; 0.1-5% by mass of surface-active agent; 0.01%-1.0% by mass of anti-foaming agent; 0.01-1% by mass of water-soluble calixarene, with the remainder being water. The technical result is an increase in the effectiveness of action of a solution (degree of cleaning) for cleaning surfaces soiled with deposits having a high content of organic substances, while simultaneously extending the field of use of said solution.
