  • Process for preserving a dispersion in a metering apparatus and metering apparatus
    Patent number: 12533435
    Abstract: Shown and described here is a process for preserving a dispersion in a metering apparatus, wherein the dispersion is stored in a container (1, 101, 201) which is part of the metering apparatus, wherein an oxidant is introduced into the container (1, 101, 201). Also described are a metering apparatus configured for this process and a use of an oxidant for preserving dispersions.
    Type: Grant
