  • Patent number: 9650205
    Abstract: A chelating system for inclusion in a composition at least stored in a polymer lined metal passivated steel container which provides for stability of both the composition and the container. The composition preferably is a cleaning composition including a color-changing dye or indicator. The chelating system provides for stable storage of the composition through preventing degradation of the dye/indicator over an extended storage time. The chelating system included in the composition has a low affinity for the passivation metal on the steel container which provides for stability of the polymer liner present over the passivation layer and, thus, provides for the stability of the container. A preferred combination is a cleaning composition including (a) tetrasodium iminodisuccinate as the chelant and (b) a pH sensitive color-changing dye/indicator, in combination with a PET-lined chromium passivated tin-free steel container.

  • Publication number: 20160288147
    Abstract: A fluid delivery system for dispensing fluid can include a dispenser (10), such as a trigger engine-type dispenser, configured to draw fluid up from a container to dispense a foam-like spray. The dispenser (10) can be configured to draw fluid up from a container. A dispenser body can be configured to mount the dispenser to the container. The dispenser can include a nozzle (N) having an orifice (230), and a mesh (M) material can be placed on the nozzle (N) over the orifice (230). The mesh (M) material can be formed of a polymeric material in one example, and in another example, the mesh material can be formed of a stainless steel material. A method of assembling a dispenser configured to draw fluid up from a container is also disclosed, which can include providing a dispenser body configured to mount the dispenser to the container, securing a nozzle having an orifice to the dispenser body, and securing a mesh material to the nozzle.
