Abstract
A non-caustic oven cleaner comprising a terpene is provided. The terpene is most preferably d-limonene. The oven cleaner further comprises effective amounts of a cleaning surfactant, a foaming agent, a stabilizer, a wetting agent and a viscosity agent. Said oven cleaner is produced by separately pre-mixing the oil phase components and the water phase components and then mixing the oil phase into the water phase. A method for safely cleaning oven residue is provided, comprising heating the oven, contacting the oven cleaner to the interior surfaces of the oven for a specified amount of time, and further rinsing said oven cleaner from the interior surfaces of the oven.
Claims14
A method for producing an oven cleaner, comprising:
- (a) premixing components miscible in oil to form an oil phase, said components comprising a terpene, a mineral seal oil surfactant miscible in oil, and a chemical stabilizer;
- (b) premixing components miscible in water to form a water phase, said water phase comprising a foaming agent, a viscosity agent, and a surfactant miscible in water;
- (c) mixing said oil phase into said water phase while agitating said water phase, wherein an "oil-out" emulsion composition is produced that inverts to a "water-out" emulsion upon application to a soiled surface.
