| 20080276973 | Detergent component for preventing precipitation of water hardness and providing soil removal properties - A cleaning composition for removing soils includes an alkyl vinyl ether-maleic acid copolymer and at least one component selected from the group consisting of sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide. The composition contains less than about | 11-13-2008 |
| 20100197558 | DEVELOPMENT OF AN ALUMINUM HYDROXYCARBOXYLATE BUILDER - A cleaning composition for removing soils includes an aluminum salt, a hydroxycarboxylate, an alkalinity source and optionally, a surfactant system. The cleaning composition has a pH of between about 9 and about 14. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20110017945 | NOVEL FORMULATION OF A WARE WASHING SOLID CONTROLLING HARDNESS - A water hardness controlling agent includes an acrylate polymer having a molecular weight of about 4,500 g/mol, an acrylate-maleic copolymer having a molecular weight of about 40,000 g/mol and a 2-phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid. A ratio of acrylate-maleic copolymer to acrylate polymer to the 2-phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid in parts per million is about 5-30:10-40:6-20. | 01-27-2011 |
| 20110021410 | NOVEL FORMULATION OF A WARE WASHING SOLID CONTROLLING HARDNESS - A water hardness controlling agent includes a polyacrylic acid or salt thereof having a molecular weight of between about 1,000 and about 50,000 g/mol, an acrylic-maleic acid copolymer or salt thereof having a molecular weight of between about 1,000 and about 100,000 g/mol and a phosphonocarboxylic acid or salt thereof. A ratio of acrylic-maleic acid copolymer or salt thereof to polyacrylic acid or salt thereof to phosphonocarboxylic acid or salt thereof in parts per million is about 1-30:10-80:6-20. | 01-27-2011 |
| 20110112007 | ALKYL POLYGLUCOSIDES AND A PROPOXYLATED-ETHOXYLATED EXTENDED CHAIN SURFACTANT - A cleaning composition includes an alkyl polyglucoside, an ethoxylated, propoxylated extended chain surfactant having between 6 and 10 carbon atoms and a cloud point of about 42° C. or less, a water conditioning agent and water. In one embodiment, the cleaning composition is substantially free of alkyl phenol ethoxylates. The cleaning composition is capable of removing soils including up to 20% proteins. | 05-12-2011 |
| 20110180112 | METHOD OF REMOVING/PREVENTING REDEPOSITION OF PROTEIN SOILS - A method and composition is provided for removing protein soil and preventing redeposition of soils onto a surface. The method includes introducing a protein-removing/anti-redeposition agent during a washing step of a wash cycle, introducing a cleaning composition during the washing step of the wash cycle, washing the surface of the substrate with the protein-removing/anti-redeposition agent and the cleaning composition during the wash cycle, and subsequently rinsing the surface of the substrate with a rinse aid. The protein-removing/anti-redeposition agent includes a poly sugar and the cleaning composition includes an alkalinity source and a surfactant component. The composition is substantially free of phosphorus-containing compounds and includes less than about 0.05% by weight alkali earth metal. | 07-28-2011 |
| 20110245129 | ACID CLEANING AND CORROSION INHIBITING COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING GLUCONIC ACID - A biodegradable acid cleaning composition for cleaning stainless steel, and other surfaces is disclosed. The composition comprises urea sulfate in combination with gluconic acid which serves as a corrosion inhibitor. The composition retains the cleaning and corrosion prevention properties of similar phosphoric acid solutions but is safe for the environment and is less expensive to produce. Applicants have surprisingly found that the traditionally alkaline corrosion inhibitor, gluconic acid, can work effectively in an acidic cleaning composition. | 10-06-2011 |
| 20110257071 | FERRIC HYDROXYCARBOXYLATE AS A BUILDER - The use of ferric hydroxycarboxylate as a chelator and builder for cleaning compositions is disclosed. The cleaning composition may be formulated for warewashing, laundering, and for other means of removing soils and includes a ferric hydroxycarboxylate, an alkalinity source and a surfactant system. The cleaning composition has a pH of between about 9 and about 12. | 10-20-2011 |
