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 need for a light duty maintenance cleaning spray for hard surfaces, which result in less over-spray during application, especially when using spray applicators which provide large coverage angles, and provides more uniform coverage, especially on inclined surfaces, is met when the spray composition is formulated with low surfactant levels and thickener, and is applied as spray droplets having the desired particle size.

The present invention provides a liquid detergent composition comprising anionic surfactants, optionally one or more nonionic surfactants, polyethylene glycol, and water, and wherein the liquid detergent composition has a pH of 7.0 to 7.5, wherein the liquid detergent composition has a viscosity at 25° C. and 20 s.sup.−1 in the range of 5 to 100 mPa s.sup.−1, and wherein the liquid laundry composition has stable viscosity between a temperature range of 10 and 40° C., and wherein the composition is adapted for application with a hand-held dispensing device used for washing by hand. The liquid detergent composition has a low constant viscosity throughout the temperature range of normal use and produces a stable foamy lather.

By fluorinating 1,2,3,3-tetrachloro-1-propene (1230xd) using hydrogen fluoride as a fluorinating agent, an efficient method for producing 1,2-dichloro-3,3-difluoro-1-propene (1232xd) is provided. Through this composition including 1232xd, there are also provided an environmentally friendly composition having excellent ability to dissolve various organic matters, a method for cleaning an article using the composition, a method for producing a lubricant solution using the composition, and a method for producing a component provided with a lubricant coating film.

A cleaner composition, a cleaning aerosol, and a method for cleaning a contaminated part, in which the contaminated part, particularly a part around an automobile brake or the like, can be cleaned easily, safely, and with high efficiency and minimal environmental impact. A cleaner composition can include a component (A); cis-1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene (HCFO-1233zdZ) as a cleaning agent; and a component (B); carbon dioxide as a propellant; wherein a content of the component (B) contains 1.6 to 10 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the component (A).

A solvent composition has an oxygenated solvent and a siloxane solvent. In one embodiment, the oxygenated solvent is propylene glycol methyl ether and the siloxane solvent is hexamethyldisiloxane or octamethyltrisiloxane. In another embodiment, the solvent composition is an azeotrope of propylene glycol n-butyl ether and decamethyltetrasiloxane. The siloxane solvent can be used in any situation where one desires to remove a silicone deposit, e.g., conformal coatings, adhesives, sealants, greases, heat transfer fluids, paints, oils, etc.

The present invention relates to personal care compositions comprising malodor reduction compositions and methods of making and using such personal care compositions. Such personal care compositions comprising the malodor control technologies disclosed herein provide malodor control without leaving an undesirable scent and when perfume is used to scent such compositions, such scent is not unduly altered by the malodor control technology.

The need for a cleaning product comprising a spray dispenser and a cleaning composition, which provides improved crystalline grease cleaning and good initial sudsing, and hence reduced time to clean the dishes, is met by a cleaning product comprising a spray dispenser and a cleaning composition, the composition is housed in the spray dispenser and wherein the cleaning composition comprises alkyl polyglucoside surfactant, a co-surfactant selected from amphoteric surfactant, zwitterionic surfactant and mixtures thereof, and an organic solvent.

The need for a cleaning product comprising a spray dispenser and a cleaning composition, which provides improved polymeric grease cleaning and suds mileage, and hence reduced time to clean the dishes, is met by a cleaning product comprising a spray dispenser and a cleaning composition, the composition is housed in the spray dispenser and wherein the cleaning composition comprises anionic surfactant and alkyl polyglucoside surfactant.

Alkaline sprayable aqueous compositions for cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting are disclosed. In particular, the sprayable compositions include an alkali soluble emulsion polymer, an alkalinity source, a foaming agent, and water. Beneficially, the sprayable cleaning compositions have reduced misting and are environmentally safe for users to apply. Further the compositions exhibit less running on non-horizontal surfaces than acrylamide-based compositions.
