Abstract
The invention provides a gelled hypochlorite-based cleaner in which stability is achieved by reducing or minimizing the ionic strength of the cleaner, comprising: (a) a cross-linked polyacrylate polymer; (b) an amount of an bleach-stable surfactant sufficient, in combination with said polyacrylate polymer, to result in a gel; (c) an effective amount of a source of hypochlorite, which has an ionic strength below about 5M; and (d) the balance, water.
Claims13
A gelled hypochlorite-based cleaner having enhanced chemical stability of the composition and phase stability, said cleaner consisting essentially of:
- (a) about 0.2 to about 5% of a cross-linked polyacrylate polymer;
- (b) about 0.2 to about 5% of a bleach-stable surfactant;
- (c) about 0.1 to about 10% a source of a high purity, high strength hypochlorite;
- and
- (d) the balance, water.
