The present invention comprises chlorinated and non-chlorinated alkaline cleaning compositions for removal of proteinaceous and fatty soils at low temperature, i.e. less than 120 F., with little or no deleterious affect on cleaning performance. According to the invention, applicants have found that adding additional alkalinity makes protein removal more difficult and reducing the amount of alkalinity actually improves performance. According to the invention optimized combinations of chlorine and alkalinity components for low temperature cleaning as well as a surfactant system optimized for low temperature fatty soil removal are disclosed.

The present invention provides granules containing one or more bleaching catalysts selected from the group of manganese salts or manganese complexes and at least one binder selected from the group of acid organic compounds coated with 0.1 to 3% by weight, referring to the total amount of the granules, with a polyvinyl alcohol-containing coating, wherein the coating comprises at least 80% of polyvinyl alcohol or mixtures thereof, in relation to the total weight of the coating.

The embodiments herein disclose a hypochlorous acid based ophthalmic composition, comprising stabilized hypochlorous acid. The stabilized hypochlorous acid is added in the ophthalmic composition as an anti-microbial agent and/or a preservative. The stabilized hypochlorous acid is added in the ophthalmic composition to be utilized for contact lens solution. The stabilized hypochlorous acid is added in the ophthalmic composition in a non-toxic predetermined amount. The non toxic predetermined amount of stabilized hypochlorous acid less than 0.05% v/v. The stabilized hypochlorous acid is added in the ophthalmic composition as a preservative in a predetermined amount ranging 0.0005% v/v-0.05% v/v. The stabilized hypochlorous acid is added in the ophthalmic composition as an anti-microbial agent after determining free available chlorine. The free available chlorine in the stabilized hypochlorous acid is in a range of 50 ppm-500 ppm. The predetermined ophthalmic compositions are selected from a group consisting of eyedrop solution, eyedrop suspension, eyedrop gel and ointment. anti-microbial eye drops, eye cleansing drops, ophthalmic lubricants and contact lens solutions.

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.

An alkaline liquid cleaning composition is provided, the cleaning composition including a liquid medium having hydrogen peroxide, water, and nanoparticles dispersed in the liquid medium. The nanoparticles are insoluble in the liquid medium and exhibit an overall negative charge at the particle-liquid interface. The nanoparticles can be nanosilicates.

An automatic dishwashing cleaning composition having a new protease.

An automatic dishwashing cleaning composition having a new protease.

Solid, concentrated, multi-use, stabilized peroxygen bleach compositions are disclosed. The solid compositions employ a C6-C18 fatty acid binding system for improving shelf stability of an activated bleach composition containing a peroxygen source and a bleach activating agent. Methods of formulating and methods of use are further provided.

Corrosion inhibitors for hypochlorous acid aqueous solutions are provided and impart corrosion inhibiting effects of suppressing the generation of rust in contacted metal surfaces to hypochlorous acid aqueous solutions. Effective components of the corrosion inhibitors comprise only: an A component composed of (A1) a metal salt of formic acid and/or (A2) a metal salt of saturated carboxylic acid, wherein the number n of carbon atoms contained in the molecule is at least 2, the valence v of the acid is 1 or 2, and the value n/v obtained by dividing the number n of carbon atoms by the valence v of the carboxylic acid is 2-6; and a B component composed of a nonionic surfactant, wherein the mass ratio B/A of the B component to the A component in the effective component is 0.005-10.0.

An aqueous light duty liquid detergent formulation, is provided including water; a cleaning surfactant; and a suds enhancing additive; wherein the suds enhancing additive comprises a crosslinked cellulose ether containing 0.1 to 0.6 wt %, based on weight of the crosslinked cellulose ether, of polyether groups.
