摘要:
Linen treatment compositions and linen processes are disclosed which help to prevent iron deposition from wash water, and/or redeposition after iron containing stain (such as blood) removal by alkaline detergents. The linen treatment composition is a combination of a hydroxycarboxylic acid and an acid source, which may be organic or inorganic. The invention provides for effective iron control in a phosphorus-free formula that is also free of toxic or hazardous chemicals and includes sustainable, environmentally friendly ingredients, while still providing effective iron control.

A detergent dispensing cartridge for use in a washing machine. The washing machine is for cleaning a soiled substrate. The treatment of the moistened substrate is with a formulation comprising a multiplicity of polymeric particles. Said formulation is free of organic solvents.
摘要:
Fibrillation of certain cellulosic fibres has been widely studied, and fibrillation can be utilised to improve fabric performance, for example strength, absorbency, surface area together with handle and opacity. However, it believed that keratinous fibres such as wool have not been treated in this way. The invention seeks to provide a fibrillated keratinous fibre fabric and a method of fibrillating natural fibres. A textile fabric of keratinous fibre is disclosed characterised by the presence of fibrils, micro-fibrils and proto-fibrils. The fibrils may be further characterised as having diameters in the range 3 mum to 5 mum and by having lengths in the range 25 mum to 60 mum. Preferably, the fabric is a woven, knitted, non-woven or composite fabric. A method of treating natural fibres is also disclosed which comprises:- a pre-treatment to remove surface lipid materials or scales, e.g. using an oxidising agent; a treatment to remove or partially remove intercellular cement, e.g. using an enzyme; and the application of mechanical agitation under aqueous conditions, e.g. hydroentanglement, to complete fibrillation.

In der ersten Verfahrensstufe werden die Textilien in einer Waschflotte, die höchstens 0,3 g Phosphor pro Liter als Phosphat enthält, gewaschen. Die Waschflotte wird durch Auflösen von phosphatarmen oder phosphatfreien Waschmitteln in Wasser erhalten. In der zweiten Verfahrensstufe werden die Textilien mit einem sauer eingestellten flüssigen Mittel behandelt. Dadurch werden die in der ersten Verfahrensstufe eventuell gebildeten Inkrustationen aufgelöst und die Textilien ausserdem mit einem Textilweichmacher ausgerüstet.

摘要:
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for wet-cleaning, in professional or household washing machine equipment, and subsequent drying in a tumbler dryer, of garments made of protein-fibers (animal based fibers) such as wool, cashmere, silk and other sensitive fibers. Using water and certain additives instead of organic solvents, these compositions enable the cleaning, including oil stains removal, and subsequent drying without incurring dimensional changes, shrinkage, surface damages, dye or color loss of dry clean only labeled garments or other delicate garments labeled for special care.
摘要:
A method for dry-cleaning articles such as fabrics and clothing in carbon dioxide. The article includes a stained portion or region, which is pretreated with a pretreatment composition prior to initiating the cleaning cycle. The pretreatment step is followed by contacting the pretreated article to be cleaned with a liquid dry cleaning composition for a time sufficient to clean the article. The liquid dry-cleaning composition comprises a mixture of carbon dioxide, a surfactant, and an organic co-solvent. After the contacting step, the article is separated from the liquid dry cleaning composition. The pretreatment composition, in a preferred embodiment, comprises at least one of (a) a surfactant; (b) d-limonene, and (c) a C12-C15 alkane co-solvent. Preferably the pretreatment composition comprises at least two, and in some particularly preferred embodiments, the pretreatment composition comprises all three, of the aforesaid ingredients.

摘要:
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Behandlung von Fasermaterial. Um ein Verfahren zur Behandlung von Fasermaterial zur Verfügung zu stellen, das eine umweltschonende Reinigung und Aufbereitung von Fasermaterial erlaubt, ist gemäß der Erfindung vorgesehen, daß Fasermaterial, insbesondere Kammzug, Textilien, Vliesstoffe und Wollfaserbündel, zunächst in einer lösungsmittelunterstützten Reinigungsphase gereinigt, anschließend in einer Vakuumtrocknungsphase getrocknet und danach in einer Plasmabearbeitungsphase oberflächenmodifiziert werden. Die gemäß der Erfindung vorgeschlagene Vorrichtung (100,200) zur Behandlung von Fasermaterial weist dazu einen Reinigungsbehälter (102,202), einen Vakuumtrockner (104,204) und einen Plasmabearbeitungsbehälter (106,206) auf.
