  • Patent number: 6803057
    Abstract: An acidic aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution is provided with improved disinfectant activity. Concentrated solutions preferably contain up to about 8 wt./wt. % H2O2 and as-used concentrations contain about 0.5% wt./wt. % H2O2. The solution also contains from 0.05 to 8.0 wt./wt. % of at least one phosphorous-based acid, e.g. phosphoric acid and/or a phosphonic acid with from 1 to 5 phosphonic acid groups, and from 0.02 to 5 wt./wt. % of at least one anionic surfactant. The surfactant is selected from C8 to C16 alkyl aryl sulfonic acids, sulfonated C12 to C22 carboxylic acids, C8 to C22 alkyl diphenyl oxide sulfonic acids, naphthalene sulfonic acids, C8 to C22 alkyl sulfonic acids, and alkali metal and ammonium salts thereof, and alkali metal C8 to C18 alkyl sulfates, and mixtures thereof. Most preferably the solution has an emulsifier and/or hydrotrope, e.g. an alkylated sulfonated diphenyl oxide salt, an alkyl aryl polyoxyethylene surfactant, and/or a polyoxyethylene surfactant.

  • Patent number: 6686324
    Abstract: A low-foaming cleaning solution and dry particulate formulation which can be diluted with water, deionized water, or mixtures thereof, to form the cleaning solution. The cleaning solution has an alkaline pH, which is preferably from about 8 to about 11.5 and consists essentially of at least one low foaming surfactant in a concentration of from about 0.005% to about 40% w/w of the total solution, at least one active oxygen releasing compound in an amount effective to produce a hydrogen peroxide concentration of from about 0.005% to about 50% w/w of the total solution, at least one builder in a concentration of from about 0.001% to about 50% w/w of the total solution, and at least one diluent selected from the group consisting of water, deionized water, and mixtures thereof.
