Abstract

Abstract Stable aqueous suspensions of crystalline aluminosilicate molecular sieve particles, particularly hydrophobic crystalline siliceous molecular sieves, are provided in compositions having a consistency ranging from thin lotions to semi-solid "stick" formulations. The aqueous suspensions are maintained using hydrophilic colloids, particularly a mixture of a colloidal magnesium silicate having the structure of smectite and an alkali metal salt of the carboxymethoxy ether of cellulose.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 48 words
Composition suitable for eliminating organic odors by contact with the odor source which comprises a suspension of particles of crystalline molecular sieves in an aqueous medium comprising water, a colloidal magnesium silicate having the structure of smectite and an alkali metal salt of the carboxymethoxy ether of cellulose.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 48 words
Composition suitable for eliminating organic odors by contact with the odor source which comprises a suspension of particles of crystalline molecular sieves in an aqueous medium comprising water, a colloidal magnesium silicate having the structure of smectite and an alkali metal salt of the carboxymethoxy ether of cellulose.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 56 words
Composition according to claim 1 wherein the particles of crystalline molecular sieves are hydrophobic siliceous molecular sieves, have particle sizes in the range of 1.5 to 20 micrometers and are present in an amount of from about 1 to about 75 parts by weight on the basis that the molecular sieves are in the anhydrous state.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 40 words
Composition according to claim 2 wherein the crystalline hydrophobic siliceous molecular sieve particles are present in an amount of from about 5 to about 50 parts by weight on the basis that the molecular sieves are in the anhydrous state.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 22 words
Composition according to claim 3 wherein the hydrophobic crystalline siliceous molecular sieves have particles in the range of 1.5 to 6.0 micrometers.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 16 words
Composition according to claim 1 wherein the colloidal magnesium silicate is a colloidal magnesium aluminum silicate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 35 words
Composition according to claim 5 wherein the alkali metal salt carboxymethoxy ether of cellulose is the sodium salt and has a DP of from 200 to 1000 and a DS of from 0.38 to 1.45.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 24 words
Composition according to claim 5 wherein the colloidal magnesium aluminum silicate is present in an amount of from 0.45 to 2.5 parts by weight.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 23 words
Composition according to claim 6 wherein the DS of the sodium carboxymethoxy ether of cellulose is within the range of 0.65 to 0.90.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 43 words
Process for imparting particles of a hydrophobic crystalline siliceous molecular sieve to a surface which comprises incorporating said particle into an aqueous suspension having a composition according to claim 1, applying said suspension to said surface and removing the aqueous constituent by evaporation.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 18 words
Process according to claim 8 wherein the surface to which the particles are applied is a fibrous surface.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 80 words
Process for preparing a composition of claim 1 which comprises providing an aqueous medium, imparting to said aqueous medium a colloidal magnesium silicate having the structure of smectite and maintaining the resulting composition until the silicate is swelled and completely hydrated, adding an alkali metal salt of a carboxymethoxy ether of cellulose to the aqueous medium containing the silicate and maintaining the resultant composition until the ether is swelled and completely hydrated and thereafter adding the particles of molecular sieve.
