Abstract:
A solidification matrix includes a straight chain saturated carboxylic acid salt, sodium carbonate, and water. The straight chain saturated carboxylic acid salt is selected from a salt of a mono-, di-, or tri- carboxylic acid. The solidification matrix may be used, for example, in a solid detergent composition.
Abstract:
Thermally formed thermoplastic articles can be protected from stress cracking in the presence of stress cracking promoting compounds by forming a shaped article comprising a thermoplastic and a liquid hydrocarbon oil composition. We have found that the liquid hydrocarbon oil composition prevents the stress cracking promoting materials from interacting with the polymeric structure of the stressed container to prevent or inhibit stress cracking in such materials. The methods and compositions of the invention are particularly useful in preventing stress cracking in polyethylene terephthalate beverage containers during bottling operations during which the bottle is contacted with aqueous and non-aqueous materials such as cleaners and lubricants that can interact with the polyester to cause stress cracking particularly in the container base. A process for lubricating a container, such as a beverage container, or a conveyor for containers, by applying to the container or conveyor, a thin continuous, substantially non-dripping layer of a liquid lubricant. The process provides many advantages compared to the use of a conventional dilute aqueous lubricant.
Abstract:
The present invention provides for a composition suitable for removing proteinaceous material comprising water, an emulsifier, a chelating agent, one or more mineral acids, and a surfactant; wherein: the emulsifier is a polyether nonionic emulsifier or an amine oxide; the chelating agent is an alkylaminophosphonic acid, a hydroxyalkylphosphonic acid, or an alkylphosphonic acid carboxylic acid; the one or more mineral acids are present in an amount such that the pH of the composition is less than about 4.5; and the surfactant is a compound of formula (I): wherein R , R , and R are independently (C1-C6)alkyl wherein any alkyl group can be substituted with one or more (C1-C6)alkoxy or hydroxy; R is (a) or (b) wherein R and R are independently (C1-C6)alkylene, wherein any alkylene group can be substituted with one or more (C1-C6)alkoxy or hydroxy; R is (C1-C6)alkylene wherein the alkylene group can be substituted with one or more (C1-C6)alkoxy or hydroxy; q has an average value between about 1 and about 100; r has an average value between about 1 and about 100; and X is halo, RCOO , PO4 or SO4 wherein R is (C1-C6)alkyl.
