An object of the present invention is to provide a cleaning liquid for a semiconductor substrate, which has excellent corrosion prevention performance for a metal-containing layer. In addition, another object of the present invention is to provide a method for cleaning a semiconductor substrate.

The cleaning liquid of an embodiment of the present invention is a cleaning liquid for a semiconductor substrate that has been subjected to a chemical mechanical polishing treatment, in which the cleaning liquid includes a component A having two or more onium structures in a molecule, and water, and has a pH of 7.0 to 11.8 at 25° C.

Water-dispersible solid compositions that comprise at least one water-soluble polysaccharide, and at least one quaternary ammonium compound, amine, or protonated amine compound as an active ingredient that is absorbed by the polysaccharide are disclosed. The compositions are useful for a wide variety of applications, such as fabric softener compositions, hair care compositions, sanitizing compositions, and well bore treatment compositions.

An acidic liquid fabric care composition that includes: citric acid and/or a salt thereof; a first sulfur-containing compound selected from a sulfate compound, a bisulfate compound, or a combination thereof; a fragrance material; and water. Related methods of making and using such compositions.

The present invention provides: a cleaning liquid for semiconductor substrates having undergone CMP, the cleaning liquid being excellent in temporal stability and cleaning performance; and a method of cleaning such semiconductor substrates. A cleaning liquid of the invention contains: a first amine compound which is represented by Formula (1) and whose conjugated acid has a first acidity constant of not less than 8.5; and a second amine compound (provided that the first amine compound is excluded). The mass ratio of the first amine compound content to the second amine compound content is 1 to 100, and the cleaning liquid has pH of 6.0-12.0 at 25° C.

Described herein, are fabric care compositions comprising: an aminofunctional polysiloxance; optionally a thickening agent; and optionally a non-ionic surfactant. Methods of making and using these compositions are also described.

Effervescent compositions for preparing home care products and methods for preparing the same are disclosed. The effervescent compositions may include an effervescent base, one or more surfactants, one or more solidifying agents, and one or more disintegrant agents. The effervescent base may include one or more alkali metal carbonates and one or more acids. The one or more alkali metal carbonates and the one or more acids may be present in a weight ratio of from about 1:1 to about 5:1. The effervescent composition may be substantially free of water. The effervescent composition may have a dissolution time of from about 6 min to about 12 min. The method for preparing the effervescent composition may include contacting the effervescent base, the surfactants, the solidifying agents, and the disintegrant agents with one another to prepare a mixture, which may be a homogenous mixture.

A surface cleaning device may include a nozzle, a dust cup, a suction motor configured to draw air into the nozzle and through the dust cup, and a first deodorizer coupled to the nozzle, the first deodorizer includes a deodorizing composition having a long chain fatty acid.

Solid rinse aid compositions, methods of use, and methods of making said composition are disclosed. Rinse aid is provided by a solidification agent, a sheeting agent, a defoamer component, and a polyacrylic acid homopolymer or alkali metal salt thereof forming a solid composition. Preferred solidification agents include aromatic sulfonates. Preferred sheeting agents include one or more alcohol ethoxylates. Preferred defoamer components include a polymer compound including one or more ethylene oxide groups. The solid rinse aid compositions are preferably substantially free of sulfate and sulfate-containing compounds.

The present composition relates to effervescing compositions used in the treatment of toilets, and in particular malodours which may emanate therefrom, as well as methods of making such compositions and methods of their use. The compositions may be in pulvurent form which may be a granular form, or may be in a solid form such as a tablet.
