1-111. (canceled)
A hard surface cleaning composition adapted to be loaded on a cleaning wipe comprising about 0.05-5 weight percent cationic biocide as the principal biocide, a cationic biocide release agent having an ionic strength in said cleaning composition of about 1×10−2-5 mol/l and constituting about 0.04-5 weight percent of said cleaning composition, about 0.01-5 weight percent surfactant, about 0.5 to less than about 5 weight percent organic solvent, and a majority weight percent water, said cationic biocide including a quaternary ammonium compound, said cationic biocide release agent including a salt selected from the group consisting of:
- potassium citrate, sodium citrate, magnesium sulphate, sodium chloride, ammonium chloride, potassium chloride, and mixtures thereof, said surfactant including an alkyl polyglycoside, a majority of said organic solvent including a solvent selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, isopropanol, butanol, pentanol, hexanol and mixtures thereof.
An improved cleaning composition comprising:
- a. about 0.04-5% by weight of a quaternary ammonium compound,
- b. about 0.03-10% by weight of a biocide release agent,
- c. about 0.01-5% by weight of glycoside surfactant,
- d. at least about 0.05% by weight of solvent, and
- e. at least about 90% by weight of water.
An improved cleaning composition comprising:
- a. about 0.05-5% by weight of a cationic biocide,
- b. about 0.03-10% by weight of a biocide release agent,
- c. about 0.01-5% by weight of alkyl polyglycoside surfactant, and
- d. at least about 0.05% by weight of solvent,
- wherein said solvent includes at least two solvent compounds, one of said solvent compounds has a boiling point less than about 150° C. and another solvent compound has a boiling point of at least about 150° C., and the ratio of solvent having a boiling point less than about 150° C. to the amount of solvent having a boiling point greater than or equal to about 150° C. is between about 5:1 and 1:1
