Abstract: The invention relates to compositions which comprise one or more glycerol ethers together with one or more diol/diols and/or polyol/polyols. As a result, as well as good microbicidal effectiveness, whitening is reduced or avoided, drying-out of the skin is prevented, the moisture content is regulated and the skin is regreased to an adequate extent.

Abstract: Compositions having a combination a) of one or more glycerol monoalkyl ether(s) of the general formula R—O—CH2—CHOH—CH2OH in which R is a branched or unbranched C3-C18-alkyl group, where the alkyl group can be substituted by one or more hydroxyl and/or C1-C4-alkoxy group(s) and/or the alkyl chain can be interrupted by up to four oxygen atoms, with b) an antioxidant or two or more antioxidants as stabilizer(s), the simultaneous presence of phosphocholines and phosphocholine derivatives being excluded.

Abstract: The invention relates to a disinfectant composition which includes a) one or more 1- or 2-(C1- to C24-alkyl)glycerol ethers, b) one or more bispyridiniumalkanes and c) one or more amine oxides, and to the use of the composition for hygienic hand disinfection and for disinfectant handwashing.

Abstract: The invention relates to compositions which comprise one or more glycerol ethers together with one or more diol/diols and/or polyol/polyols. As a result, as well as good microbicidal effectiveness, whitening is reduced or avoided, drying-out of the skin is prevented, the moisture content is regulated and the skin is regreased to an adequate extent.

Abstract: Microbicidal composition for product preservation, including a microbicidal composition which comprises a) at least one formaldehyde donor compound and b) at least one antioxidant chosen from gallic esters, phenol derivatives, L-ascorbic acid, and salts and derivatives thereof, and tocopherols and derivatives thereof, and to the use thereof for the preservation of technical products, for example fuels and lubricants.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of a 1-alkyl glycerol ether of the formula (I) in which: (a) an alkyl glycidyl ether of the formula (II) in which R is an unbranched or branched C1- to C24-alkyl group, where the alkyl group may be substituted with one or more hydroxy and/or C1- to C4-alkoxy group(s) and/or the alkyl chain may be interrupted by up to four oxygen atoms, is added to: (x) a carboxylic acid having 1-10 carbon atoms; (y) an ester of a carboxylic acid having 1-10 carbon atoms; and/or (z) an anhydride of a carboxylic acid having 1-10 carbon atoms. The low-water reaction mixture containing a catalytic amount of a strong acid is reacted at a temperature of more than 40° C. to give an acylated alkyl glycerol ether; and (b) the acylated alkyl glycerol ether is reacted in order to obtain the alkyl glycerol ether of the formula (I).

Abstract: An aqueous-based composition which includes a) at least one bispyridinium alkane (for example octenidine) and b) at least one stabilizer selected from antioxidants, complexing agents, reducing agents, UV filters and photoprotective agents, in particular ?-tocopherol, and BHT. The composition can also include c) one or more auxiliaries selected from, for example, nonionic surfactants, ethers, solvents and polymers, in particular fatty alcohol alkoxylates and alkoxylated fatty acid monoglycerides. The presence of the stabilizer reduces or prevents the appearance of decomposition products of bispyridinium alkanes and, in the case of the presence of auxiliaries, of decomposition products of the auxiliaries, such as ethers and peroxides.
