METHOD FOR CLEANING HYDROCARBON-CONTAINING SOILS FROM SURFACES

摘要

This invention is directed to an improved method for removing hydrocarbon-containing soils. The invention consists of preparing a detergent composition and applying the composition to the surface to be cleaned. Broadly, the detergent composition consists of from 1 to 99 % by weight of a polyalkoxylated amine and from 99-1 % by weight of a water-soluble surfactant. Other constituents may be added to enhance performance. The invention has desirable foamability characteristics.
