Abstract
Abstract Composition for a clear blue colored, stabilized liquid peroxygen bleach, suitable for household laundry use on all fabrics, whose coloring dye is rendered non-substantive to natural or synthetic fibers by the inclusion of a non-ionic surfactant as an anti-dyeing agent having an HLB value within a predetermined range.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
156 words
An acidic stabilized aqueous bleach product consisting essentially of about: a. 1.0 to 8.0 percent by weight stabilized hydrogen peroxide; b. 0.5 to 10 percent by weight of a water soluble non-ionic surfactant which is a polyethylene oxide condensate having an HLB value from about 10 to 15, said condensate being of polyethylene oxide and a member from the group consisting of alkyl phenols having alkyl groups of 6 to 12 carbon atoms, secondary alcohols having from 8 to 22 carbons, linear primary alcohols having from 8 to 22 carbon atoms, polyoxypropylene glycols having molecular weights of at least 900, fatty alcohols having from 8 to 22 carbons, and fatty acid partial esters of polyhydric alcohols having at least 4 moles of polyoxyethylene and derived from fatty acids having from 8 to 28 carbons; and c. 0.0002 to 0.002 percent by weight color stable phthalocyanine blue dye pigment powder, said product having a clear blue appearance.
