Abstract: According to the present invention there is provided a pearlescent liquid treatment composition suitable for use as a laundry or hard surface cleaning composition comprising a rheology modifier providing a pouring viscosity at 20 sec?1 of from 50 to 700 cps, a viscosity at constant low stress of 0.1 Pa which is at least 300 cps, preferably 500 cps and a pearlescent agent, said pearlescent agent having D0.99 volume particle size of less than 60 ?m.

Abstract: An alkaline detergent composition for hard surface comprises an alkaline agent (component A), a nonionic surfactant (component B), a chelating agent (component C), water (component D), at least one carboxylic acid compound (component E) selected from the group consisting of compounds represented by general formula (1) and general formula (2), and at least one anionic surfactant (component F) selected from the group consisting of surfactants represented by general formula (3) and salts thereof. Therein, the content ratio [component E (weight %)/component B (weight %)] is 1/1.5-15/1, the content ratio [component F (weight %)/component B (weight %)] is 10/1-1/5, and the pH at 25° C. is 12 or greater.

Abstract: A cleaning solution for paper making equipment includes a stabilized source of peroxide in combination with a glycol ether solvent system and an alcohol ethoxylate. The peroxide system can be hydrogen peroxide stabilized with a phosphonate such as HEDP. The glycol solvent system may be a propylene glycol ether such as dipropylene glycol methylether or tripropylene glycol methylether. This solution can be formulated with a pH from about 4 to about 12. This is used by recirculating it through a paper making equipment during a shut down procedure.

Abstract: A water-based formulation for the removal of ink comprising a detergent builder including sodium carbonate, neutralized polyacrylic acid, and an acrylic acid/maleic anhydride copolymer; a chelating agent including tetrasodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid; and a detergent/emulsifier including C9-11 Pareth 8, C6-12 Pareth 6, and PEG Cocomonium Chloride.

Abstract: A cleaning medium for use in cleaning printing forms includes either an acid solution having a pH of from 1 to 4 or a basic solution having a pH of from 10 to 14. A dispersible abrasive agent in a concentration of from 1 to 15 grams per 100 grams of the cleaning composition, a surfactant in a concentration of from 1 to 50 grams per 100 grams of the cleaning composition, an organic solvent in a concentration of from 10 to 50 grams per 100 grams of the cleaning composition, and additional water if needed are added to the acid or basic solution to form the cleaning medium. A cleaning medium in concentrate form is also provided.

Abstract: The invention concerns a liquid de-inking composition comprising at least a surfactant of polyalkoxylated terpenic origin of formula: Z—X—W—[CH—(R5)CH(R6)-O]q—A wherein: Z is a bicycloheptenyl or bicycloheptyl radical, preferably substituted by methyl radicals; X is preferably a —CH2—CH2—O— or —O—CH2—CH2—O— radical; W is a polysequence, preferably polyoxypropylene and polyoxyethylne sequence; [CH(R5)—CH(R6)—O]q is a sequence different from a polyoxyethylene, preferably polyoxypropylene sequence; A is a hydrogen atom, a hydrocarbon or functional group. Said composition can be used for de-inking paper.
