A cleaning compound for cleaning surfaces that includes at least one container, with each container including a peroxide and/or an alkaline reactant therein. The alkaline reactant is selected to raise the pH of the cleaning compound into the alkaline range when the peroxide and the alkaline reactant are mixed together. The cleaning compound may be a liquid or dry compound, which is applied to the surface to be cleaned.

The invention relates to a cleaning product including an inverted container assembly comprising an inverted container and a liquid dispenser attached to a bottom surface of the inverted container, and a viscous cleaning composition contained in the inverted container assembly. The present invention also relates to the use of the cleaning product for cleaning dishware.

The invention describes to compositions useful to stabilize peracetic acid, acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide compositions with polymeric phosphonic acid resins or with 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1,-diphosphonic acid associated with the interior surface of a container to stabilize the peracetic acid, acetic and hydrogen peroxide compositions.

Water-soluble refill dose articles for forming a cleanser have a water-soluble film defining a first compartment enclosing a first composition and a second compartment enclosing a second composition, which are individual separate articles or are part of an integral article. The first composition has a rheology modifier, a first surfactant, 10% or less by weight water, 20% or less by weight glycol, and the first surfactant does not activate the rheology modifier. The second compartment has an alkaline substance that when mixed with the first composition and water activates the rheology modifier to increase the viscosity of a resulting cleanser and 10% or less by weight water. When the article is diluted in water at a 1:1 to 1:20 ratio, it produces a cleanser having a viscosity within a range of 2000 cps to 50,000 cps.

The invention relates to methods and compositions for treating non-trans fats with a souring composition that acts as both a souring agent and a chelating agent. The invention also relates to methods for reducing the frequency of laundry fires with acidic GLDA.

The disclosure relates to a device for treating stains, which can be carried by a person, comprising a reservoir for receiving a chemical formulation, where the reservoir has an outlet port for dispensing the chemical formulation and where the device comprises a UV radiation source which emits its radiation in a direction essentially away from the device. The invention further relates to a method for treating spots using such a device.

The present disclosure is directed to a nonwoven product and methods of making the same. The nonwoven product includes a nonwoven material formed of a fibrous material, the nonwoven material comprising one or more plies, the nonwoven material comprising a first side, a second side, a cross direction and a machine direction, wherein the cross direction is substantially perpendicular to the machine direction, the nonwoven material comprising a number of perforations extending substantially in the cross direction and substantially in the machine direction, wherein the number of perforations extending substantially in the machine direction form a first section of the nonwoven material, the first section comprising a soap material.

An electronic-device sanitizer product and method for sanitizing cellphones, smartphones, and other portable electronic devices, that is easy to carry, easy to find when needed, and easy to use, allowing frequent cleaning, having an alcohol-free sanitizing liquid, a misting sprayer, and a microfiber material for distributing and absorbing the sanitizing liquid, all enclosed in a slim tube-shaped package that can be carried on a keyring. Optionally, the sanitizing liquid can be provided with any of a number of distinctive scents that will be imparted to the electronic device.

The invention is related to a cleaning capsule for admission to the inner part of a hot beverage system, in particular a coffee machine, whose hollow space contains a cleaning material. The cleaning capsule contains in the hollow space an inert filling material in addition to the cleaning material.

Aqueous hard surface cleaner compositions useful for removing permanent ink are disclosed. The compositions comprise 75 to 99 wt. % of water; 0.1 to 5 wt. % of a monoterpene; 0.1 to 5 wt. % of a C10-C17 fatty acid derivative; and 0.1 to 5 wt. % of one or more surfactants. The fatty acid derivative is selected from N,N-dialkyl amides, N,N-dialkyl esteramines, and N,N-dialkyl amidoamines. Preferably, a base such as sodium carbonate or monoethanolamine is also included. The invention includes concentrates comprising the non-aqueous components recited above, as well as other applications for the cleaners and concentrates such as graffiti removers and permanent ink erasers. The combination of a monoterpene and certain fatty acid derivatives, especially fatty N,N-dialkyl amides, unexpectedly enables even dilute aqueous compositions to rapidly decolorize black permanent marker from hard, non-porous surfaces.
