  • Patent number: 5419847
    Abstract: The present invention provides an aqueous liquid bleach composition which remains stable over an extended period of time. The liquid bleach is easily pourable since it has a relatively low viscosity. The liquid bleach generally comprises (a) from about 1% to about 25% by weight of a water-soluble bleach activator; (b) from about 0.1% to about 10% by weight of hydrogen peroxide; (c) from about 1% to about 20% by weight of a phase stabilizer; (d) from about 0.001% to about 2% by weight of a chelating agent; and (e) the balance water. The liquid bleach composition is isotropic, translucent and has a viscosity of less than about 500 cps.
