Abstract: Formulation components such as bleach boosting compounds selected from the group consisting of bleach boosters comprising quaternary imine cations, zwitterions, polyions having a net charge of from about +3 to about −3 and mixtures thereof, bleaching species comprising oxaziridinium cations, zwitterions, polyions having a net charge of from about +3 to about −3 and mixtures thereof, are disclosed. The bleach boosting compounds increase bleaching effectiveness even in lower temperature solutions and provides improved stability toward unwanted boosting compound decomposition.
