Abstract:
The present invention relates to acrylate copolymers as soil antiredeposition agents and soil release agents in laundry processes. Further aspects of the invention are a method for preventing soil redeposition and for easier releasing soil from textiles in laundry processes and detergent formulations containing said acrylate copolymers.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of selected metal complex compounds and ligands as oxidation catalysts as well as to a process for removing stains and soil on textiles and hard surfaces. The metal complex compounds have hydrazide ligands, preferably with electron withdrawing groups in the phenyl ring adjacent to the acyl group. Further aspects of the invention are formulations comprising such metal complex compounds, novel metal complex compounds and novel ligands.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an antimicrobial cleaning composition comprising at least one sugar surfactant and a compound of the formula (I) as biocide, and to the use of the sugar surfactants for improving the activity of the biocide.
Abstract:
Disclosed are compositions comprising a) an antimicrobial agent, which is selected from the group consisting of biocides containing halogen atoms and/or containing phenolic moieties, formic acid, chlorine dioxide, chlorine dioxide generating compounds, dialdehydes; components containing an antimicrobial metal such as antimicrobial silver, and b) a polyamine, especially a polyethylenimine. The polyamine is effective as a booster for the antimicrobial agent.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of comb or block copolymers which have been prepared by controlled free radical polymerization as soil antiredeposition agents and soil release agents in laundry processes. Further aspects of the invention are a method for preventing soil redeposition and for easier releasing soil from textiles in laundry processes and detergent formulations containing said comb or block copolymers.
