  • Patent number: 9546346
    Abstract: Liquid abrasive cleanser compositions sprayable through conventional manual trigger sprayers comprise a polyalkylene glycol, a nonionic surfactant, a pH adjusting agent, an abrasive, and water, wherein sprayability is made possible by the addition of the polyalkylene glycol. The compositions that are sprayable and acceptable as hard surface cleaners comprise polyethylene glycol as the polyalkylene glycol. The addition of polyethylene glycol having molecular weight of from about 4,000 to about 1,000,000 dramatically increases the sprayer output volume of liquid abrasive compositions having greater than or equal to 10 wt. % calcium carbonate. Addition of polyethylene glycol of molecular weight of from about 4,000 to about 100,000 converts otherwise non-sprayable liquid abrasive compositions into reliably sprayable compositions.

  • Publication number: 20130210695
    Abstract: A substantially streak-free no-rinse hard surface cleaner composition is disclosed that comprises nonionic surfactant, alkanolamine; hydroxide and/or silicate builder, boric acid and/or borate salts, and water. The no-rinse cleaner is virtually streak-free by virtue of the added boric acid or borate. In a preferred embodiment, the substantially streak-free no-rinse cleaner comprises amine oxide surfactant, MEA, hydroxide, ethanol, sodium tetraborate pentahydrate and/or boric acid, and water. The present invention also comprises a method for improving the filming and streaking performance of alkaline no-rinse cleaners by the addition of borate salts and/or boric acid to the conventional cleaner.
