REMOVING PETS URIN, ODOR AND MILDEW OUT OF HAND MADE RUGS
This invention relates to isolating and removing mildew, harmful bacterial and pets urine out of handmade wool and silk rugs.
The invention consist of three procedures that describes each step of work, chemicals mixture and timing used to achieve the this process.
It saves handmade rugs from being discarded, it describes a new safe and healthy approach in cleaning handmade rugs.
REDUCED MISTING ALKALINE AND NEUTRAL CLEANING, SANITIZING, AND DISINFECTING COMPOSTIONS VIA THE USE OF HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT WATER-IN-OIL EMULSION POLYMERS
Alkaline sprayable aqueous compositions for cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting are disclosed. In particular, the sprayable compositions include an inverse emulsion polymer for modifying the viscosity of the composition and provide numerous benefits over dispersion polymer compositions used for rheology modification to reduce misting and respiratory inhalation of cleaning compositions. Compositions and methods of cleaning using the compositions having reduced amounts of airborne particulates of the composition during spray applications are provided.
COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR USE IN SURFACE DECONTAMINATION
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.
Enhancement of the sporicidal efficacy of alcohol and peroxide compositions
The present invention relates to a liquid composition comprising: a) at least one alcohol; b) at least one hydrocarbon or hydrocarbon mixture; c) at least one peroxide agent; d) water. The compositions of the invention possess antimicrobial and enhanced sporicidal properties.
Liquid surfactant-containing alkanolamine-free compositions
Liquid compositions include: a) one or more anionic surfactants and b) one or more nonionic surfactants,
wherein they comprise the surfactants of components a) and b) in a total concentration of >25% by weight, based on the total weight of the liquid composition, and are free from alkanolamines and salts thereof. Upon combination with bleaches, the liquid compositions exhibit a significantly higher bleaching efficacy than comparable alkanolamine-containing compositions.
Methods and compositions for the generation of peracetic acid on site at the point-of-use
Methods for the generation of non-equilibrium solutions of peroxyacetic acid are disclosed. These methods comprise introducing triacetin and aqueous hydrogen peroxide to water, mixing, and then adding an aqueous source of an alkali metal or earth alkali metal hydroxide. Triacetin is converted rapidly and with a high conversion rate into peracetic acid. These methods produce solutions with a high level of peracetic acid.
Moderately alkaline cleaning compositions for proteinaceous and fatty soil removal at low temperatures
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.
BURSTABLE SPORICIDAL CLEANING WIPE SYSTEM FOR C. DIFFICILE SPORES
Sanitizing and disinfecting compositions with relatively low levels of free available chlorine, with good effectiveness against microbes, included in a burstable pouch of a system also including a plurality of initially undosed (e.g., dry) wipes in a resealable package thereof. The composition may include less than 0.5% by weight hypochlorite or other free available chlorine level, with a pH less than 12. The composition is long term stable in the pouch, but upon bursting of the pouch and dosing of the wipes, exhibits only short-term stability. Because of the low level of hypochlorite, the dosed wipes exhibit improved surface compatibility and negligible “bleach” odor, while providing at least a 3-log reduction in C. diff population within 10 minutes.
Liquid formulation for treating plants and skin and method of use
An aqueous formulation for treating insects and fungal diseases on plants includes effective amounts of an HOCl-containing electrolyzed oxygenated aqueous solution, one or both of a food grade diatomaceous earth and a clinoptilolite zeolite, and one or more of a sodium magnesium fluorosilicate and a bentonite clay. The formulation, which is non-toxic to humans and pets, can be sprayed on the plants to kill insects and fungi and has a long dwell time to improve the effectiveness of the components of the formulation against insects and fungi. In particular, the formulation will kill bacteria, virus, mold, fungi, and may be used on food crops. The formulation also may be used as a plant and foliar cleaner and/or the formulation can be used to treat skin of a person to improve skin health.
Domestic dishwasher and dishwashing method
The invention relates to a method of automatic dishwashing in a dishwasher having a wash tank, comprising: in a first step, delivering a first composition to dishware in the tank in the form of a mist; and afterwards, in a second step, delivering a second composition to the dishware in the tank in the form of a jet; wherein the first and second compositions are different, the first composition comprises a bleach, and the second composition is alkaline and comprises a builder. The invention also provides a dishwasher adapted to carry out the inventive method.
