Definitions

  • the invention relates to the use of a composition comprising a copolymer of quaternary ammonium acrylamide and acrylic acid and a multi-arm star-shaped polyalkoxylate and / or a polyester amide for reducing the adhesion of microorganisms to a hard surface or to the bacteriostatic finish of a hard surface.
  • copolymers which consist of at least one anionic vinyl monomer, one vinyl monomer having a quaternary ammonium group or one tertiary amino group, and a nonionic hydrophilic vinyl monomer or a polyfunctional vinyl monomer. These copolymers are useful as anti-soiling components in detergents and are effective, for example, against fecal contamination.
  • toilet cleaners for better lime solution are often after application for a long time, often several hours or even overnight, left to act on the ceramic.
  • the formulations are usually thickened to improve the adhesion to the ceramic. When prolonged exposure then forms on the surface of a film that is usually colored due to the product coloring and after drying is difficult to remove.
  • Biofilms consist of a thin layer of mucus (film) in which microorganisms (e.g., bacteria, algae, fungi, protozoa) are embedded. This can be not only a hygienic but also an aesthetic problem. As an antidote biocidal substances are often used. However, this is not always unproblematic in view of the ecotoxicological properties of many of these substances and the associated limitations in their application. In addition, biofilms contribute to the formation of unpleasant-smelling substances and are therefore a source of undesirable bad odors, especially in the sanitary sector.
