SULFOPEROXYCARBOXYLIC ACIDS, THEIR PREPARATION AND METHODS OF USE AS BLEACHING AND ANTIMICROBIAL AGENTS

摘要

The present invention relates to novel sulfoperoxycarboxylic acid compounds, and methods for making and using them. The sulfoperoxycarboxylic compounds of the invention are storage stable, water soluble and have low to no odor. Further, the compounds of the present invention can be formed from non-petroleum based renewable materials. The compounds of the present invention can be used as antimicrobials, and bleaching agents. The compounds of the present invention are also suitable for use as coupling agents.
