Detergent compositions effective for controlling hard water scale accumulation are described herein. In particular, the compositions combine a tetrapolymer with an alkaline composition to effectively prevent or remove calcium carbonate scale formations. Methods of employing the detergent compositions and of preventing scale accumulation are provided for use in alkaline warewash and other applications.

The present disclosure provides a method for preparing a microcapsule and a microcapsule prepared thereby capable of selective release of oils and preventing volatilization of oils while maintaining long-term performance by improving storage stability of the oil contained in the capsule.

A system and method for a metal sequestration composition comprising combining a galactaric salt or galactaric acid with a metalloid oxyanion, and an alkali compound. The system and method enable the production of a metal sequestration composition that either alone or in combination with other functional components (e.g.,, surfactants, solvents, pH modifiers) provide water treatment or cleaning compositions.

The disclosure provides a cleaning composition, comprising purified water, sodium ionized water, coconut oil, calcium oxide and an alkaline substance. A content of the purified water is greater than 50 wt %. A content of the sodium ionized water is 15 to 25 wt %. A content of the coconut oil is 3 to 7 wt %. A content of the calcium oxide is 0.5 to 2.5 wt %. A content of the alkaline substance is 7 to 13 wt %. The purified water, the sodium ionized water, the coconut oil and the alkaline substance account for less than or equal to 100 wt % of the total weight percentage of the cleaning composition. The disclosure further provides a preparation method of a cleaning composition.

Methods of employing the detergent compositions and of preventing scale accumulation are provided for use in alkaline warewash and other applications.

A detergent composition and a method of washing/cleaning urushiol at least partially, more typically substantially or completely off a surface of human skin or clothing. The detergent composition is typically a non-buffered composition that contains one or more C.sub.12 surfactants, typically at least a sodium lauroyl sarcosinate and the detergent composition is typically free of one or more of (1) any nonylphenol ethoxylate; (2) any pharmaceutically active drug or prodrug; (3) any salt in an amount that affects the functional characteristics of either of the solely C.sub.12 surfactants; (4) any salt in granular form; and/or (5) any ethoxylate that is a stand-alone ingredient.

Decontamination compositions useful to decontaminate potentially toxic materials, such as PAH and others, present on clothing comprise an aqueous solution of a water soluble cerium salt or a dispersion of cerium oxide in water. The decontamination composition may optionally include at least one of an oxidizer, a surfactant, a co-solvent, a chelating agent, and a polymer. Methods of decontaminating clothing involve applying the decontamination composition to the clothing.

A vehicle-cleaning system and method of cleaning a vehicle are provided, the system comprises a cleaning agent dispenser configured to administer a cleaning agent to a surface of a vehicle for cleaning, wherein the cleaning agent preferably comprises one or more nanoparticulate metal oxide. In one embodiment, the system comprises a chemical agent dispenser configured to separately administer a chemical agent to the surface of a vehicle to react with said cleaning agent to form a resultant foam. The system further comprises an electromagnetic wave emitting system for providing wavelength in a range of about 200 nm to about 380 nm to activate the nanoparticulate metal oxide.

Methods for in situ mixing of two or more different liquid compositions by employing a dynamic flow profile characterized by a ramping-up section and/or a ramping-down section.
