Abstract:
The present invention is directed to antiviral compositions that provide efficacy against non-envelope viruses such as noroviruses. The antiviral compositions comprise an alkyl 2-hydroxycarboxylic acid and an effective amount of a sulfonated surfactant. The composition may be used as a topical on human skin, as a hand sanitizer or as a hard surface cleaning composition.
Abstract:
Caustic-free detergent compositions are provided. Detergent compositions including an aminocarboxylate, water conditioning agent, non-caustic source of alkalinity and water beneficially do not require the use of additional surfactants and/or polymers to provide suitable detergency and prevent scale build-up on treated surfaces. The detergent compositions are used with a sanitizer to employ the caustic-free detergent compositions are particularly suitable for use as low temperature ware wash detergents that beneficially reduce scale build-up. Methods of employing the caustic-free detergent compositions are also provided.
Abstract:
Compositions and methods are provided for reducing, inhibiting, or preventing corrosion of a surface, the method comprising contacting an anticorrosion compound of Formula 1 with the surface, the anticorrosion compound of Formula 1 having a structure corresponding to:
wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5 are independently selected from hydrogen, hydroxyl, alkyl, alkoxyl, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl, and —NR8R9; R6 and R7 are independently hydrogen, a substituted alkyl, substituted alkenyl, substituted aryl, substituted alkaryl, or substituted aralkyl, wherein at least one substituent is a hydroxyl or an ether; provided that at least one of R6 and R7 is other than hydrogen; R8 and R9 are independently hydrogen, unsubstituted alkyl, unsubstituted alkenyl, unsubstituted aryl, unsubstituted alkaryl, unsubstituted aralkyl, substituted alkyl, substituted alkenyl, or substituted alkaryl, wherein at least one substituent is a hydroxyl or an ether; or any two adjacent groups of R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5 form one or more ring structures.
Abstract:
Phosphorus-free detergent compositions are provided. Detergent compositions including an aminocarboxylate, water conditioning agent, source of alkalinity and water beneficially do not require the use of additional surfactants and/or polymers to provide suitable detergency and prevent scale build-up on treated surfaces. The detergent compositions are used with a sanitizer to employ the phosphorus-free detergent compositions for use as low temperature ware wash detergents that beneficially reduce scale build-up. Methods of employing the phosphorus-free detergent compositions are also provided.
Abstract:
Compositions comprising a sugar alkoxylate and processes for preparing said compositions are provided. The compositions can be used as a bio-film inhibitor, rheology modifier, emulsion breaker, and/or emulsion inverter. Additionally, the compositions can be used in methods of breaking and/or inverting an emulsion of water and oil.
Abstract:
Disclosed are detergent compositions and methods of cleaning articles and/or membranes using the surfactants herein. Compounds, compositions, and methods for using these compounds and compositions in detergent or cleaning compositions are also provided. These compounds, compositions, and methods are particularly directed to cleaning compositions and methods that have advantageous cleaning properties at a pH of 7 or less. In particular, the compounds, compositions, and methods described herein can also be used as general surfactants in detergent compositions or in methods of cleaning articles or membranes.
