Abstract
Disclosed are compositions related to a substantially non-cytotoxic chlorine dioxide solution. The solution may be a thickened fluid composition. Also disclosed are methods of making and using a substantially non-cytotoxic thickened fluid compositions or solutions comprising chlorine dioxide solution. An oxidizing composition of reduced irritation is also disclosed.
Claims20
A thickened fluid composition comprising:
- a) chlorine dioxide;
- b) a thickener component;
- and
- c) an aqueous fluid,
- wherein the composition is substantially non-cytotoxic.
A fluid composition comprising:
- a) chlorine dioxide;
- and
- b) an aqueous fluid;
- wherein the composition is substantially non-cytotoxic.
A composition for generating a thickened fluid comprising substantially pure chlorine dioxide, the composition comprising a mixture of particulate chlorine-dioxide-forming reactants and a thickener component, wherein the reactants comprise a metal chlorite, an acid source, and an optional halogen source, and wherein the mixture is treated with a stabilizing component.
A method of making a substantially non-cytotoxic thickened fluid composition comprising chlorine dioxide, the method comprising the step of combining a substantially pure chlorine dioxide solution with a thickener component to form a substantially non-cytotoxic thickened fluid composition.
