The invention discloses synergistic combinations of surfactant blends and cleaning compositions employing the same. In certain embodiments a surfactant system is disclosed which includes an extended anionic surfactant with novel co-surfactants including one or more of an alkyl glycerol ether, an ethoxylated alkyl glycerol ether, an alcohol ethoxylate and/or a gemini surfactant. This system forms emulsions with, and can remove greasy and oily stains, even those comprised of non-trans fats. The compositions may be used alone, as a pre-spotter or other pre-treatment or as a part of a soft surface or hard surface cleaning composition.

A detergent composition and a polishing composition are provided. The detergent composition facilitates sufficient removal of polishing agents, metal microparticles, and anticorrosives in cleaning of a semiconductor substrate and long-term maintenance of flatness of a metal wiring surface after cleaning and achieves excellent quality stability for a long period of time; and the polishing composition facilitates suppression of scratching on a polished object such as a semiconductor substrate, and reduction of filter clogging. A detergent composition containing an alkanol hydroxylamine compound represented by General Formula (1) and having a pH of 10 to 13, and a chemical-mechanical polishing composition containing the detergent composition and a polishing agent. In Formula (1), R.sup.a1 and R.sup.a2 are the same or different and each represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having from 1 to 10 carbons and having from 1 to 3 hydroxyl groups, with proviso that R.sup.a1 and R.sup.a2 are not simultaneously hydrogen atoms, and a total number of hydroxyl groups present in R.sup.a1 and R.sup.a2 is not 0.

An agrochemical composition includes an agrochemical and a surfactant that has a structure (I)-(VI). The surfactant may be described as an alkyl amidoamine glycerol surfactant, an oxide thereof, or as a quaternary ammonium compound thereof.

Embodiments of the present methods and solutions that operate to prepare a metal surface to be ready for coating or primer. The surface is operated on using mechanical or pressure impingement operation in conjunction with application of medium comprising dimethylethanolamine (DMEA) and water (DMEA diluted in water). Embodiments of the present invention can perform the wash or decontamination to leave a clean surface that provides excellent performance in durability and rust resistance after being coated or primed. Other cleaning chemicals if added may reduce the performance and interfere with the desired objective. Other surfaces are contemplated.

The present disclosure relates to a laundry sheet manufactured using polyvinyl alcohol or a polyvinyl-alcohol-based copolymer and containing a surfactant, in which the surfactant includes a main surfactant and a cosurfactant. The main surfactant includes a first main surfactant and a second main surfactant, and the first main surfactant and the second main surfactant are different from each other, each of the first main surfactant and the second main surfactant independently including a C8-C18 alkyl sulfate alkali metal salt. The cosurfactant includes two or more different surfactants, one of which is fatty acid alkyl ester alkoxylate and the remaining one of which is a nonionic surfactant.

The present invention relates generally to cleaning compositions and, more specifically, to cleaning compositions containing a polyetheramine that is suitable for removal of stains from soiled materials.
