The present invention provides a means by which it is possible to sufficiently suppress an organic residue while favorably decreasing a ceria residue on a polished object to be polished obtained after being polished using a polishing composition containing ceria. The present invention relates to a composition for surface treatment, which is for a surface treatment of a polished object to be polished obtained after being polished using a polishing composition containing ceria, contains a carboxy group-containing (co)polymer having a structural unit derived from a monomer having a carboxy group or a salt group of the carboxy group, a SO.sub.x or NO.sub.y partial structure-containing compound having a partial structure represented by SO.sub.x or NO.sub.y (where x and y each independently denote a real number 1 to 5), and a dispersing medium, and has a pH of 1 or more and 8 or less.

A treatment liquid for cleaning a semiconductor wafer is a treatment liquid contains (A) a hypochlorite ion and (C) a solvent, in which pH at 25° C. is more than 7 and less than 12.0. A method for removing ruthenium and tungsten from a semiconductor wafer and cleaning the semiconductor wafer includes bringing the treatment liquid into contact with the semiconductor wafer containing ruthenium or tungsten is provided.

The disclosure provides cleaning compositions including at least one acid, at least one carbonate salt, at least one gum, at least one acid salt, and, optionally, at least one chelating agent. When exposed to an aqueous medium, the cleaning compositions may produce carbon dioxide. These cleaning compositions find use, for example, in cleaning textile fibers, such as carpets, drapery, upholstery, and the like. The disclosure provides methods of cleaning soiled textile fibers with a cleaning composition including gum arabic, at least one acid, and at least one carbonate salt.

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a method of treating a textile with an antimicrobial agent over a plurality of laundry cycles each including a wash cycle and a treatment cycle. The method includes (a) receiving a textile in a wash system for a first laundry cycle, (b) initiating a wash cycle comprising a detergent, (c) initiating a post-detergent treatment cycle comprising dosing the textile with a solution having a predetermined concentration of an antimicrobial agent that comprises a metallic ion, and (c) repeating steps (a)-(c) for each of a plurality of additional laundry cycles. The predetermined concentration is insufficient to achieve a predetermined antimicrobial efficacy for the textile due to the first laundry cycle alone but sufficient to achieve the predetermined antimicrobial efficacy for the textile due to a combination of the first laundry cycle and one or more of the plurality of additional laundry cycles.
