NOVEL WASHING METHOD WITH ELECTROCHEMICALLY ACTIVATABLE MEDIATOR COMPOUND

摘要

The aim of the invention is to improve the cleaning power of washing and cleaning agents, especially with regards to bleachable stains, while avoiding any damage to the textile treated with said washing and cleaning agents. This is achieved by an aqueous washing liquid in a device for cleaning textile substrates, containing a plurality of water in-soluble solid particles and a mediator compound, which can produce an oxidizing bleaching agent, in an electrochemical cell using electric voltage in the washing liquid.
