Abstract: The present invention discloses an activated biocidal aqueous solution containing hydrogen peroxide (activated peroxide solution) obtainable by subjecting an initial solution of hydrogen peroxide in water to a non-thermal electrical discharge process, such as a glow discharge plasma or a corona discharge. The resulting activated peroxide solution containing 0.05 to 20% (w/w) hydrogen peroxide has a pH in the range of 2 to 4, an oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) in the range of 400 to 600 mV, and the solution when having a peroxide content in the range of 0.05% to 0.5% (w/w) has a conductivity in the range of 100 to 500 ?Siemens/cm, the solution when having a peroxide content in the range of 0.1% to 5% (w/w) has a conductivity in the range of 100 to 450 ?Siemens/cm, and the solution when having a peroxide content in the range of 5% to 20% (w/w) has a conductivity in the range of 100 to 350 ?Siemens/cm.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the biocidal use of a composition comprising hydrogen peroxide in a concentration of 0.05-50% (w/w), and a compound with a structure according to Formula 1: (OH)(2-m)(X)(O)P—[(O)p—(R?)q—(CH(Y)—CH2—O)n—R]m, or a salt thereof, wherein X is H or OH; each Y is independently H or CH3; m is 1 and/or 2; each p and q are independently 0 or 1, with the proviso that when p is 0, q is 1; each n is independently 2-10; each R? is independently an alkylene radical containing 1-18 carbon atoms; each R is independently H or an alkyl radical containing 1-18 carbon atoms; and R?+R?20; in a concentration of 0.01-60% (w/w). The composition is advantageously used for any purpose where disinfecting and/or sanitizing activity, preferably combined with cleaning and/or bleaching and/or preservative activity, is required. The present invention further discloses an especially preferred composition for biocidal use comprising hydrogen peroxide in a concentration of 0.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an activated biocidal aqueous solution containing hydrogen peroxide (activated peroxide solution) obtainable by subjecting an initial solution of hydrogen peroxide in water to a non-thermal electrical discharge process, such as a glow discharge plasma or a corona discharge. The resulting activated peroxide solution has a pH in the range of 2 to 4, a electrical conductivity of 100-400 microSiemens/cm, and an oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) in the range of 300 to 600 mV as measurable under conditions essentially without the presence of additional compounds in the solution. The biocidal activity of the solution is substantially higher than that of a common peroxide solution. The biocidal solution may be used for any purpose where disinfecting and/or sanitizing and/or cleaning and/or bleaching and/or preservative activity is required.
