This invention provides substantially spherical, micron and submicron sized alkali metal bicarbonate particles. When combined with a liquid medium, the alkali metal bicarbonate particles have an exceptional capability to form a flowable slurry which demonstrates long term stability.

Micron sized bicarbonate particles and slurrys containing the same

A slurry comprising (a) sodium bicarbonate, (b) sodium chloride, and (c) water, in a weight ratio of (a)/(b) of about 2.5:1 to about 3.5:1, wherein upon further dilution of said slurry with additional water, the amount of sodium bicarbonate and sodium chloride which dissolves into said additional water is in the same ratio as said of (a)/(b) in said slurry before said additional dilution.

Sodium bicarbonate/sodium chloride micronized slurry

A pool buffer composition comprising about 90 to 91% by weight sodium bicarbonate; about 6.5% to about 7.5% by weight sodium carbonate; and at least one binder and/or clarifier. The composition is preferably in granular of compressed tablet form and is most advantageously used in the pool water filtration system slightly upstream of the introduction point of a chlorine pool treatment product introduction point. The product is especially advantageously used substantially simultaneously with the introduction of the chlorine pool treatment product.

Pool buffering composition and method of use

A composition comprising a conventional surfactant, a gemini surfactant and a polymeric soil release agent. The conventional surfactant comprises a hydrophilic group and a hydrophobic group. The gemini surfactant comprises two surfactant moieties attached to each other by a spacer moiety; each surfactant moiety having at least one hydrophilic group and at least one hydrophobic group. The polymeric soil release agent can be any conventional polymeric soil release agent, but preferably comprising PET-POET copolymer. The compositions are useful as surfactant additive packages, detergents and fabric softeners.

Enhancement of soil release with gemini surfactants

Novel liquid detergent compositions are provided which contain a high purity amphoteric surfactant, one or more anionic surfactants and a nonionic foam boosting compound.

Liquid detergent composition

Aqueous fertilizer composition concentrates comprising potassium and optionally azote, phosphorous and sulfur are stabilized with a mixture of guar and xanthan gum; present a high content in nutrients; and can be used in drip irrigation systems without clogging.

Stable aqueous fertilizer composition concentrate comprising potassium

This invention relates to activated charcoal granule compositions which can be dry spread and 'watered-in' to a site to reduce undesirable biological activity of deleterious organic compounds. When wet, these granules disperse very rapidly with a large dispersion area to original granule diameter ratio. The granules have high loadings of charcoal, i.e., from about 60 to about 95 weight percent and contain from about 5 to about 40 weight percent of a surfactant system which exhibits excellent dispersing; rewetting; and binding properties.

Dry spreadable water dispersible granule compositions

This invention relates to the use of activated charcoal granule compositions which, when dry spread and 'watered-in' to a site, reduces undesirable biological activity of deleterious organic compounds. When wet, these granules disperse very rapidly with a large dispersion area to original granule diameter ratio. The granules have high loadings of charcoal, i.e., from about 60 to about 95 weight percent and contain from about 5 to about 40 weight percent of a surfactant system which exhibits excellent dispersing; rewetting; and binding properties.

Application of dry spreadable water dispersible granule compositions

A method for enhancing solid, nonionic surfactant aqueous dissolution rates by spray-coating from about 1 to less than 70 weight percent of diammonium sulfate with the surfactants and the compositions produced thereby.
