Abstract

Abstract A bleaching composition comprising an inorganic peroxide capable of releasing hydrogen peroxide in aqueous solution and an activating agent represented by the following general formula ##EQU1## wherein R stands for an alkyl group having 1 to 16 carbon atoms, a halogen- or hydroxyl-substituted alkyl group having 1 to 16 carbon atoms or a substituted aryl group, B designates a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, M represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or an alkali metal, and n is an integer of at least 1 when M is an alkyl group or n is an integer of at least 2 when M is a hydrogen atom or an alkali metal.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 163 words
A bleaching composition capable of being dissolved in water, consisting essentially of from 0.1 to 60 percent by weight of an inorganic peroxide capable of releasing hydrogen peroxide in aqueous solution, and from 0.1 to 50 percent by weight of an activating agent having the formula ##EQU4## wherein R is ClCH 2 --, CH 3 --, HOCH 2 --, ##EQU5## phenyl or methoxycarbonyl-substituted phenyl; B is hydrogen or alkyl having one to 3 carbon atoms; M is hydrogen, alkyl having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or an alkali metal; and n is an integer from 1 to 100, with the proviso that when M is hydrogen or alkali metal, n is at least 2; the weight ratio of said activating agent to said inorganic peroxide being in the range of 1:9 to 9:1; the balance of said composition is water-soluble anionic surfactant, or water-soluble nonionic surfactant, or water-soluble neutral inorganic detergent builder salt, or water-soluble alkaline inorganic detergent builder salt, or mixtures thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 163 words
A bleaching composition capable of being dissolved in water, consisting essentially of from 0.1 to 60 percent by weight of an inorganic peroxide capable of releasing hydrogen peroxide in aqueous solution, and from 0.1 to 50 percent by weight of an activating agent having the formula ##EQU4## wherein R is ClCH 2 --, CH 3 --, HOCH 2 --, ##EQU5## phenyl or methoxycarbonyl-substituted phenyl; B is hydrogen or alkyl having one to 3 carbon atoms; M is hydrogen, alkyl having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or an alkali metal; and n is an integer from 1 to 100, with the proviso that when M is hydrogen or alkali metal, n is at least 2; the weight ratio of said activating agent to said inorganic peroxide being in the range of 1:9 to 9:1; the balance of said composition is water-soluble anionic surfactant, or water-soluble nonionic surfactant, or water-soluble neutral inorganic detergent builder salt, or water-soluble alkaline inorganic detergent builder salt, or mixtures thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 20 words
A bleaching composition according to claim 1, in which said activating agent is selected from the group consisting of ##EQU6##
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 14 words
A bleaching composition according to claim 1, in which n is 5 to 30.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 31 words
A bleaching composition according to claim 1, in which the inorganic peroxide is selected from the group consisting of aqueous hydrogen peroxide, sodium perborate, sodium percarbonate, sodium peroxypyrophosphate and sodium peroxysilicate.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 29 words
A bleaching composition according to claim 1, in which the weight ratio of said activating agent to said inorganic peroxide is within a range of from 3:7 to 7:3.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 30 words
A bleaching composition as claimed in claim 1 containing from 0.1 to 50 percent by weight of said surfactant and from 20 to 99 percent by weight of said salt.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 77 words
A bleaching composition as claimed in claim 1 in which the amount of said inorganic peroxide is from 1 to 40 percent by weight, the amount of said activating agent is from 0.5 to 30 percent by weight, the amount of said surfactant is from 1 to 20 percent by weight, and the amount of said salt is from 30 to 90 percent by weight, all percentages being based on the total weight of the bleaching composition.
