The present invention relates generally to stable percarboxylic acid compositions comprising, inter alia, at least two stabilizing agents, and various uses for water treatments, including water treatments in connection with oil- and gas-field operations. The present invention also relates to slick water compositions and gel based compositions that comprise stable percarboxylic acid compositions and the use thereof in oil- and gas-field operations.

A composition for use as a hard surface cleaner, sanitizer and/or disinfectant is disclosed. The composition according to one embodiment comprises an arylsulfonic acid, a source of peroxide, an effective amount of a stabilizer and water. A method is provided of cleaning, disinfecting and/or sanitizing a hard surface, the method comprising providing the composition, providing a surface which requires cleaning and applying the composition onto the surface for a duration of time sufficiently long enough to destroy micro-organisms present on the surface.

The present invention relates generally to stable percarboxylic acid compositions comprising, inter alia, at least two stabilizing agents, and various uses for water treatments, including water treatments in connection with oil- and gas-field operations. The present invention also relates to slick water compositions and gel based compositions that comprise stable percarboxylic acid compositions and the use thereof in oil- and gas-field operations.

Stabilized hydrogen peroxide-containing compositions and methods of making same are disclosed. The compositions contain a stabilizer system made up of a disulfonate surfactant, a diester solvent, and a sulfonic acid or a salt thereof in a sufficient quantity to provide the stabilized hydrogen peroxide with an acidic pH value. The compositions are suitable for use as disinfectants, as cleaning agents, and in various personal care applications such as hair care and tooth whitening.

Stabilized compositions employing a binding system for improving shelf stability of an activated bleach composition containing a peroxygen source and a catalyst activator are disclosed. Stabilized compositions employ a binding system comprising an anionic surfactant for a solid formulation of a catalyst activator and peroxygen source to provide shelf stability for an activated bleach composition. Methods of formulating and use are further disclosed.

The present invention relates to improving the stability of a peroxide containing bleach composition. It particularly relates to such a composition for hard surface cleaning applications including toilet cleaning as well as for fabric cleaning application. It relates to an antimicrobial composition comprising a peroxide bleaching agent which in the presence of a cationic surfactant and an organic acid is more stable than has been heretofore known. This is achieved by inclusion of a stabilizer which in the present invention is a polyalkylene glycol compound.

The present application relates to encapsulated, preformed peracids and products comprising such encapsulates, as well as processes for making and using such encapsulates and products comprising such encapsulates. Such products deliver bleaching that results in superior whiteness and stain removal without the stability issues that are normally associated with certain bleaching systems.

Stabilized peroxide-containing compositions stabilized with urea and urea/chelator stabilizer blends are provided. The compositions are particularly suitable for, but not limited to, cleaning applications on surfaces within food and beverage industries which may require the use of materials that are acceptable for incidental food/food products/feed contact. Further, the stabilized compositions are particularly suitable for applications requiring materials that are generally regarded as safe (GRAS) or for applications where non-GRAS materials must be minimized. Methods of stabilizing peroxide-containing compositions and methods of using the compositions are also provided.

The invention relates to compositions containing a) one or more substances selected from the group of hydrogen peroxide and substances releasing hydrogen peroxide, b) water, d) one or more substances selected from the group consisting of hydroxypyridones and the salts thereof, characterized in that said compositions do not comprise polymers having thickening properties. The compositions are particularly characterized by the advantageous storage stability thereof.

A cleaning solution, including: a solvent; an oxidizing agent, wherein the oxidizing agent comprises a peroxide; a stabilizing system, wherein the stabilizing system comprises a first stabilizing agent and a second stabilizing agent; a surfactant; an optional colorant; and an optional fragrance.
