摘要 |
The invention relates to compositions and methods of treatment employing compositions comprising alkali metal monochloro (alkali metal) sulfamates. The compositions include bound hypochlorite, which can be released slowly during use, providing a shelf-stable, color-safe, odor-free cleaning (e.g., laundry) composition. The composition may include (a) 1% to about 30% by weight of a bleaching agent selected from the group consisting of sodium monochloro (sodio) sulfamate, potassium monochloro (potassio) sulfamate, lithium monochloro (lithio) sulfamate, and mixtures thereof; (b) 0.1 to about 20% by weight of a metal hydroxide or metal oxide; and (c) wherein the pH of the composition is greater than 11. The compositions can be used to treat a surface by providing stain removal that is at least comparable to a hypochlorite bleach composition while being color-safe without exhibiting any significant hypochlorite bleach odor.
