The invention describes foamable compositions that do not require a propellant for delivery that are useful to treat and moisten soiled medical instruments until final cleaning can be undertaken.

Cleaning compositions including one or more non-ionic surfactants; one or more quaternary ammonium compounds; at least one citrus terpene; one or more chelating agent and water, the cleaning compositions useful for cleaning alkaline surfaces such as building gutters.

Disclosed is a cleaning composition, and methods of use and processes thereof. The cleaning composition may be used for cleaning surfaces, such as an exterior of a vehicle. The cleaning composition can interact with rain, or other source of water, to provide cleaning of the surfaces. The cleaning composition can interact with, attach to, or bond to salt, dirt, grime, oils, and the like, on the surface of a vehicle, for example, and can then gently wash the particles away using rain as a rinsing agent. The cleaning composition may include a chelating agent and a surfactant. The cleaning composition may be pH-controlled and can act as a neutralizer to the acidity in rain or other water to provide cleaning of the applied surfaces.

An aqueous cleaner composition providing good lubricity for obtaining superior cleaning and anti-streaking results on hard surfaces such as glass and stainless steel as well as plastic windows and the like. The cleaner composition includes an aqueous solution made up of water and isopropyl alcohol. Droplets of polydimethylsiloxane are dispersed within the aqueous solution for creating a lubricated surface. According to one implementation, sodium dodecyl sulfate is the surfactant which assists in soil removal. Essential oils can be added for fragrance, and colorants added for visual appearance.

The present disclosure provides methods and systems for in situ cleaning of hot gas flowpath components of a turbine engine that form portions of a hot gas flowpath extending through the turbine. The hot gas flowpath components may include a layer of accumulated contaminants on first portions thereof that form a respective portion of the hot gas flowpath. The first portions may include a thermal battier coating (TBC), and the layer of accumulated contaminants may overlie the TBC and at least partially infiltrate into the TBC. The accumulated contaminants may include CaOMgOAl2O3-SiO2 (CMAS) partial melt. The methods may include introducing an acid-including detergent into the hot gas flowpath of the turbine engine and onto the hot gas flowpath components to clean the accumulated contaminants from the first surfaces of the components.

Liquid cleansing agents with a low viscosity, containing (A) one or more kinds selected from the group consisting of N-acyl acidic amino acid and a salt thereof, (B) one or more kinds selected from the group consisting of N-acyl neutral amino acid and a salt thereof, and (C) an amphoteric surfactant can be filled in a foamer container and are cleansing agents with high cleansing power which afford fine foam discharged from a foamer container, maintain fineness, provide a good amount of lather and a smooth feeling after washing, can prevent clogging in a foamer container during use at low temperatures, and are also superior in low temperature stability.

A method for cleaning, sanitizing, and disinfecting commercial and residential HVAC system includes applying cleaning foam to coils of the HVAC system, the foam including one or more agents that break down organic and/or inorganic fouling debris into particles, the foam removing and carrying away debris from the coils.

The invention relates to a method for fighting mold, algae, and other microorganisms on various wall, floor, or ceiling surfaces infested with said organisms, and on masonry in general. The method comprises the following steps carried out consecutively: applying a first solution to the infested surface, wherein the first solution contains at least one surfactant compound; applying at least once a second solution that was basified by means of caustic soda to the infested surface, wherein the solution contains at least one hypochlorite compound; applying a third solution to the infested surface, wherein the solution contains at least hydrogen peroxide and lactic acid as active substances, and wherein the application of the third solution is continued until the foam formation on the infested surface has ended; applying a fourth solution to the infested surface, wherein the solution contains at least one quaternary ammonium compound.

A direct-foam cleaning product comprising a foam having a compression force of about 2.4 gf*mm to about 4.3 gf*mm. Such direct-foam cleaning product provides good foaming properties and surface coverage when the composition is sprayed directly onto soiled dishware. This leads to efficient cleaning of soiled dishes via a direct-foam and rinse action, which avoids traditional methods of soaking soiled dishes in detergent baths and/or scrubbing soiled dishware with a sponge or cleaning implement.
