The disclosure provides compositions and methods for making a colorized solution of an aqueous disinfectant that is both stable in bulk solution and will fade to clear within a predetermined period of time after being applied to a surface, for example as a spray or film. The compositions and methods described here allow an end user to visualize both the extent of coverage and the duration of contact of the disinfectant with the surface, thereby providing more efficient disinfection of the surface.

The invention provides to a powdered composition of additives and a method of use thereof for increasing the visibility, potency and coverage of disinfectant solutions, such as bleach.

The invention relates to a method of automatic dishwashing, comprising: placing soiled wares inside a cleaning volume; providing a first cleaning composition comprising a bleach and a second cleaning composition different from the first composition; and delivering the first composition and the second composition separately to the cleaning volume to contact the soiled wares, wherein: the first composition is delivered to the cleaning volume as a mist and the second composition is delivered to the cleaning volume as a jet; and the first and second compositions are delivered to the cleaning volume at a temperature below 100° C. The invention also relates to a dishwasher and a kit for use in the inventive method.

The oxidizing and bleaching effect of peroxygen compounds at low temperatures was to be improved. This was substantially achieved through the use of organic peroxoacids under perhydrolysis conditions with compounds which form cationic groups and in which a quaternary nitrogen atom is part of a heterocyclic 5-membered functional group.

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.

Provided is the use of a lanthanide metal complex as a bleaching catalyst. In particular, the lanthanide metal complex comprises a ligand which is an aromatic compound having at least one electron withdrawing substituent and at least one nucleophilic group. Provided is also a composition containing the lanthanide metal complex.

The present invention relates to compounds which form, under perhydrolysis conditions, certain cationic organic peracids, to the use of said compounds for activating peroxygen compounds in the context of bleaching stains when washing textiles and cleaning hard surfaces, and to washing and cleaning agents that contain said compounds.

Provided are: a container for chlorine-based liquid bleaching agent composition including a resin composition containing a polyester resin (A), a pigment (B) and a polyamide resin (C), wherein a content of the polyester resin (A) is 90 to 99 mass %, and a mass ratio [(B)/(C)] of the (B) and the (C) is 1/99 to 20/80; and a bleaching agent article including a container having a chlorine-based liquid bleaching agent composition accommodated therein.

Provided is a method of producing a quaternary alkyl ammonium hypochlorite solution with an excellent storage stability. Specifically, provided is a method of producing a quaternary alkyl ammonium hypochlorite solution, the method including: a preparation step in which a quaternary alkyl ammonium hydroxide solution is prepared and the concentration of amines in the quaternary alkyl ammonium hydroxide solution is set to 20 ppm by mass or less; and a reaction step in which the quaternary alkyl ammonium hydroxide solution is brought into contact with chlorine gas, wherein the concentration of carbon dioxide of a gas phase in the reaction step is 100 ppm by volume or less and the pH of a liquid phase in the reaction step is 10.5 or more.
