Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to solid-layered bleach compositions. These bleach compositions are used to clean and disinfect soft and hard surfaces.
- the presently claimed invention solves some of these problems.
- Use of calcium hypochlorite in at least a two-part system does not leave residues that are associated with other calcium hypochlorite compositions, nor do they generate malodors typically associated with the use of chlorinated isocyanurates.
- the present invention also releases bleach faster than the typical use of halogenated hydantoins.
- the present invention also dissolves faster than typical commercial products based on calcium hypochlorite or halogenated hydantoins. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a solid-layered bleach composition that overcomes the disadvantages and shortcomings associated with prior art solid bleach compositions.
- one aspect of the present invention comprises a solid-layered bleach composition having at least two parts comprising a first part and a second part: wherein said first part comprises, a) 0.1% - 50% of a hypochlorite selected from the group consisting of calcium hypochlorite, magnesium hypochlorite and mixtures thereof; b) 20% - 60% of a builder selected from carbonate, bicarbonate, sesquicarbonate and mixtures thereof; c) 0.1% - 60% of a water-soluble polymer, wherein said water-soluble polymer is selected from the group consisting of a polycarboxylate, sulfonated carboxylate, polysulfonate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, copolymers and mixtures thereof; d) 1% - 50% of an acid selected from the group consisting of sulfonic acid, dicarboxylic acid, monocarboxylic acid, aminocarboxylic acid and
- another aspect of the present invention comprises a solid- layered bleach composition having at least two parts consisting essentially of a first part and a second part: wherein said first part consisting essentially of, a) 0.1%-50% of a hypochlorite selected calcium hypochlorite, magnesium hypochlorite and mixtures thereof; b) 20% - 60% of a builder selected from carbonate, bicarbonate, sesquicarbonate and mixtures thereof; c) 0.1% - 60% of a water-soluble polymer, wherein said water-soluble polymer is selected from the group consisting of a polycarboxylate, sulfonated carboxylate, polysulfonate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, copolymers and mixtures thereof; d) 1% - 50% of an acid selected from the group consisting of sulfonic acid, dicarboxylic acid, monocarboxylic acid, aminocarboxylic acid
- a solid- layered bleach composition having at least two parts consisting of a first part and a second part: wherein said first part consisting of, a) 0.1%-50% of a hypochlorite selected calcium hypochlorite, magnesium hypochlorite and mixtures thereof; b) 20% - 60% of a builder selected from carbonate, bicarbonate, sesquicarbonate and mixtures thereof; c) 0.1% - 60% of a water-soluble polymer, wherein said water-soluble polymer is selected from the group consisting of a polycarboxylate, sulfonated carboxylate, polysulfonate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, copolymers and mixtures thereof; d) optionally, fillers, desiccants, solid processing aids, colorants, a water-swellable polymer wherein said water-swellable polymer is selected from the group consisting

- bleach activator it is meant herein a compound which reacts with peroxygen bleach like hydrogen peroxide to form a peracid.
- the peracid thus formed constitutes the activated bleach.
- Bleach activators that are not to be used in the composition include, but are not limited to, those belonging to the class of esters, amides, imides, or anhydrides.
