Reduced misting alkaline cleaners using elongational viscosity modifiers

摘要

Alkaline spray-on cleaners that can be delivered by pump or pressurized gas aerosol spray have been made with reduced choking mists are disclosed. The cleaning composition comprises the use of anti-mist components consisting of large anionic copolymer comprised of acrylamide and AMPS (acrylamide-sodium 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonate), and polyethylene oxide polymers that create non-Newtonian solutions. The composition also includes a surfactant, and a source of alkalinity.

主权项

1. A sprayable alkaline cleaning composition with reduced misting comprising:
(a) a source of alkalinity; (b) a surfactant; (c) an effective amount of an anti-mist component comprising an anionic copolymer comprised of acrylamide and AMPS (acrylamide-sodium 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonate) with a molecular weight of between about 800,000 and 16,000,000 daltons; and (d) water, wherein the composition is a non-Newtonian composition having a viscosity of less than about 40 centipoise.
