Abstract: Aqueous hard surface treatment compositions necessarily comprise an alcohol constituent selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, isopropanol, n-butanol, benzyl alcohol, and mixtures thereof which alcohol constituent comprises from about 40 and 70 weight percent (“% wt”) of the total weight of the composition of which it forms a part. Preferably however the alcohol constituent is present in an amount of from about 50% wt to about 70% wt, more preferably is present in amounts of from about 60% wt to about 70% wt.

Abstract: An environmentally acceptable ready-to-use, alkaline hard surface cleaning composition comprising (preferably consisting essentially of): a detersive surfactant based on glucoside surfactants; an alkalinity constituent; optionally but in certain embodiments necessarily a detersive anionic surfactant, preferably of the sulfate and/or sulfonate type; water in an amount of at least 75% wt., preferably at least about 80% wt., and optionally one or more further optional constituents, including a polyacrylate polymer, fragrances, colorants, etc.

Abstract: Improved aqueous, alkaline hard surface cleaning compositions useful in the cleaning of hard surfaces, particularly hard surfaces bearing greasy stains or soils also provide a disinfecting and/or sanitizing benefit to the treated hard surfaces. Preferred compositions comprise amine oxide as the sole surfactant constituent, an alkalinity constituent, preferably an alkanolamine and as the sole organic solvent constituent, an alkylene glycol phenyl ether, an antimicrobially active constituent, and water, optionally further including a dye and/or fragrance composition. The compositions provide excellent cleaning of greasy soils on hard surfaces and provide a disinfecting or sanitizing benefit thereto.
Abstract: The present invention is directed to an acidic hard surface treatment composition which provides a cleaning and disinfecting benefit comprising: an acidic constituent which comprises water soluble organic acid; at least one anionic surfactant constituent; at least one nonionic surfactant constituent; at least one organic solvent constituent; optionally one or more further constituents and the balance, water. The compositions exhibit surprising efficacy against various gram positive and gram negative type pathogenic bacteria, as well as against fungi in the absence of known cationic quaternary ammonium compounds known to be effective against pathogenic bacteria, as well as other known-art antimicrobial constituents and bleach are excluded.
Abstract: Foamed polyurethane articles, such as a sponges, sheets, tapes or ribbons, blocks or other molded, extruded or cast article which foamed polyurethane articles exhibit an antimicrobial benefit and are particularly useful in the formation of cleaning articles. Processes for the manufacture of such cleaning articles based on hydrophilic polyurethane foams exhibit an antimicrobial benefit and their use are also described.
Abstract: Alkaline ready to use cleaning composition which is particularly directed for the effective removal of soap scum stains on hard surfaces and which is essentially free of a chelating agent based on a nitrogen containing organic acid compound.
Abstract: The present invention provides compositions which not only effectively kill a broad spectrum of microorganisms present on surfaces on contact but continue to kill microorganisms for a period of time thereafter.

Abstract: An improved nozzle assembly with an anti-retraction feature which is useful in conjunction with a container, such as a bottle, for the dispensing of a liquid, and particularly for the targeted delivery of a thickened liquid. The nozzle assembly is advantageously provided as an element of a combination package and delivery article useful for both storing and dispensing a liquid treatment composition which package and delivery article comprises the improved nozzle assembly. The improved nozzle assembly, especially when part of a combination package and delivery article is especially useful for the targeted delivery of a drain treatment composition used to treat slow running but especially clogged drains.
