摘要:
A package for a treatment composition having a container; a dispensing assembly in fluid communication with the container; a treatment composition having a photoactivator, the treatment composition releasably contained in the container; and a light operatively connected to the container or the dispensing assembly. A method for treating a surface having the steps of; providing a package containing in a container a treatment composition having a photoactivator; dispensing the treatment composition onto a surface to be treated; irradiating the treatment composition with a light operatively connected to the package at a juncture in time selected from the group consisting of after the treatment composition has exited the container but before the treatment composition has exited the package, after the treatment composition has exited the package but before the treatment composition has been deposited on the surface, and after the treatment composition has been deposited on the surface.

A cleaning composition comprises a pH-switchable sudsing system and a cleansing system. The pH-switchable sudsing system comprises a primary sudsing agent in combination with a pH-switchable co- surfactant. The pH-switchable co-surfactant is selected from diamine molecules having a general formula R 1 R 2 -N-R 3 -N+ (CH 3 )X, where R 1 is a linear or branched C 8 to C 16 hydrocarbyl, R 2 is a linear or branched C 1 to C 3 hydrocarbyl, R 3 is a linear or branched C 3 to C 6 hydrocarbylene, and X is a counteranion. The tertiary amine nitrogen of the pH-switchable co-surfactant has a pKa value. When the tertiary amine nitrogen is unprotonated, the pH-switchable co-surfactant may provide a suds-boosting effect in washing solutions at a washing pH above the pK a . When the tertiary amine nitrogen is protonated, the pH-switchable co-surfactant may provide a suds-reducing benefit in rinse waters at a rinse pH below the pK a .

Novel textile finishing compositions for finishing textile articles are provided via the present invention. The textile finishing compositions disclosed herein comprise a cross-linking agent and a catalytic amount of an esterification agent. The cross-linking agents employed herein are selected from polycarboxylates such as homopolymers of ethylenically-a,b-unsaturated dicarboxylates, copolymers of all ethylenically-a,b-unsaturated dicarboxylates, and copolymers of ethylenically-a,b-unsaturated dicarboxylates polymerized with vinyl-containing monomers. Also provided via the present invention are methods for applying the aforementioned finishing compositions to textile articles.
摘要:
Photoactivators comprise a photoactive moiety and a hydrophilic moiety. The photoactivators preferably comprise less than about 35%, by weight of the photoactivator, of the photoactive moiety. The photoactivators can be activated to a photo-excited state by excitation with incident radiation of a wavelength between about 350 nm and 750 nm, preferably between about 350 nm and about 420 nm. The photoactivators further encompass those having certain chemical formulations.
摘要:
A process for purifying dry cleaning solvents from a mixture containing used dry cleaning solvents and contaminants, such as laundry soils, fabric treating agents, the process comprising the steps of: (a) obtaining a mixture comprising a lipophilic fluid and one or more contaminants; (b) chemically modifying the contaminant, (c) contacting the mixture with a purification agent, thereby changing the solubility of the contaminant in the mixture; and (d) separating the contaminant from the lipophilic fluid.
