Activated hydrogen peroxide disinfecting compositions are provided especially for low-foaming applications. A concentrate for dilution by an end-user is provided, which includes a hydrogen peroxide source, a non-surfactant organic sulfonic acid or salt thereof, a non-ionic surfactant, and an optional organic acid. Also provided is a ready-to-use hydrogen peroxide, disinfectant solution including a biocidal amount of hydrogen peroxide, a non-surfactant organic sulfonic acid or salt thereof, a non-ionic surfactant, water as solvent and an optional organic acid. An end-user can disinfect a surface of microorganisms by contacting the surface with the disinfecting composition for an amount of time effective to kill a majority of the microbes located on the surface.

Activated disinfectant hydrogen peroxide compositions

The present invention provides a quaternary ammonium etidronate compound (QAE) comprising a quaternary ammonium cation and an etidronate anion, having the Formula I.  A method for the preparation of such compounds is described by reacting a quaternary ammonium salt with an etidronic acid or salt thereof. Variable ratios of each reactant may also be used to form different QAE compounds. The quaternary ammonium etidronate compounds is useful in water treatment, cosmetic, hygiene, personal care, paint, coating, wood treatment, agrochemical, antimicrobial, disinfectant, or biocidal compositions; as the compound provides high anti-corrosive and biocidal properties; and low scaling properties. A water treatment composition is also described, having a QAE compound of Formula I and a water treating biocidal agent, useful in cooling towers and other recirculating water, or recreational water system.

Quaternary ammonium etidronates

Disinfectant compositions disclosed herein comprise at least one biocidal quaternary ammonium compound, hydrogen peroxide, and optionally inorganic acid and/or organic acid. Particularly, a composition comprising a biocidal quaternary ammonium chloride compound, hydrogen peroxide, and C1 to C8 carboxylic acid, mono-, di- and tricarboxylic acid enhances significantly its antimicrobial activities of either hydrogen peroxide or the quaternary ammonium chloride alone.

Disinfectant composition containing quaternary ammonium compounds

A biocide contains a hydrogen peroxide producing compound, in combination with controlled amounts of a chelating agent and a peroxide enhancing agent. In one embodiment, the composition can be used to control an algae population in a water body. The chelating agent and the peroxide enhancing agent synergistically combine with the hydrogen peroxide producing compound to increase the potency and effectiveness of the oxidizer.

Solid aquatic organism control composition and method of use

A composition comprising coated particles of a salt of pyrithione selected from the group consisting of monovalent and polyvalent pyrithione salts, and combinations thereof, partially or fully coated with a lipophilic agent. The composition is characterized by enhanced anti-fungal and anti-dandruff efficacy in shampoos. Also disclosed is a personal care composition, preferably a shampoo, containing a topical carrier and coated particles of a salt of pyrithione selected from the group consisting of monovalent and polyvalent pyrithione salts, and combinations thereof, partially or fully coated with a lipophilic agent.

Coated metal pyrithione particles for treatment of microorganisms

The present invention is directed to a water treatment composition, comprising: calcium hypochlorite coated with a coating comprising at least one hydrated or anhydrous salt. The present invention is also directed to a water treatment composition, comprising: (a) an inner core layer comprising calcium hypochlorite; (b) one or more interlayers of selected salts positioned on top of said inner core layer, and (c) one or more outer layers of selected salts positioned on top of said interlayer(s).

Coated calcium hypochlorite composition

The present invention describes a composition for stabilizing a paint or paint base composition against viscosity change, gelation and agglomeration during formulation and storage. Illustratively, an antifouling paint or paint base composition is disclosed that contains a hydrolysable acrylate resin such as copper acrylate, zinc acrylate, or silyl acrylate, a metal salt of pyrithione, cuprous oxide, and a primary stabilizing agent selected from the group consisting of benzoic acid, hydroxypyridine, metal salts of benzoic acid, and hydroxypyridine, with the proviso that said composition is essentially free of 2-hydroxypyridine N-oxide, and is also essentially free of the sodium, zinc and copper salts of 2-hydroxypyridine-N-oxide.
