Hypochlorite bleach cleaners with

C10H19N, Mt 153.27, ng 1.425-1.431, df 0.815-0.823, is a clear colorless liquid with a citrus, aldehydic and lemon odor. Due to its remarkable stability in aggressive media it is used to perfume hypochlorite bleach cleaners. 

Bathroom Cleaner with Hypochlorite Bleach (Mildew Remover)... 

Also (conveniently) in many cases, the surfactant system itself is self-thickening. This is especially the case with amine oxide/soap combinations that are used with hypochlorite bleach systems, as is well known, as well as variations on this theme [37], and amine oxide/soap systems that are shown to be supplemented by polymer [38], There is also a citation for a system using alkyl ether sulfate, solvent, and electrolyte to thicken the system [39], For systems with lower surfactant levels, sometimes the addition of polymers such as hydroxyethyl cellulose [40,41] or colloidal thickeners [42] are mentioned. The targets for these cleaners tend to be in the 200-1000 cP range, especially in the 300-700 cP range. 

In Europe and Japan, most sodium hypochlorite is made by chlorine producers. The solutions are made with 12-25% sodium hypochlorite. In western Europe a large number of companies dilute, repackage, and distribute products. Within Europe, the amounts and usage patterns vary widely between countries. Overall, the largest use of sodium hypochlorite in Europe is for household and institutional bleaches, cleaners, and disinfectants. 

Household chlorine bleach is a dilute solution of sodium chlorate(i) (sodium hypochlorite). It is prepared by absorbing chlorine gas into cold sodium hydroxide solution. More concentrated solutions are used to disinfect drinking water and swimming pools. Bleach should never be mixed with other household cleaners. With bleach, acid-based cleaners produce chlorine and ammonia-based products produce toxic chloramines, for example NH2CI. 

Sold as bleach cleaners, a genuine new generation of hypochlorite-based products appeared in 1993 on the European household market. They have been introduced in different fragranced versions (eucalyptus type, lemon, lavender) and sold as gel or 2-in-1 products which clean and disinfect. The typical surfactant level may range up to 3% (where amine oxide and soap are quite often used) combined with a sodium hypochlorite content up to about 2%. 

A 5—6% sodium hypochlorite solution is sold for household purposes, of which the largest use is in laundry. Solutions of 10—15% NaOCl are sold for swimming pool disinfection, institutional laundries, and industrial purposes. Solutions of various strengths are used in household and industrial and institutional (I I) cleaners, disinfectants, and mildewcides. A small amount is used in textile mills. Sodium hypochlorite is also made on site with 30—40 g/L available chlorine for pulp bleaching, but its use is decreasing in order to reduce chloroform emissions (see Chlorine oxygen acids and salts). 

The largest use of calcium hypochlorite is for water treatment. It is also used for I I and household disinfectants, cleaners, and mildewcides. Most of the household uses have been limited to in-tank toilet bowl cleaners. In areas where chlorine cannot be shipped or is otherwise unavailable, calcium hypochlorite is used to bleach textiles in commercial laundries and textile mills. It is usually first converted to sodium hypochlorite by mixing it with an aqueous solution of sodium carbonate and removing the precipitated calcium carbonate. Or, it can be dissolved in the presence of sufficient sodium tripolyphosphate to prevent the precipitation of calcium salts. However, calcium hypochlorite is not usually used to bleach laundry and textiles because of problems with insoluble inorganic calcium salts and precipitation of soaps and anionic detergents as their calcium salts. 

Liquid household bleach is generally a 5% solution of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl). Ammonia cleansers—including general household cleansers, wax removers, glass and window cleaners, and oven cleaners — are aqueous solutions of 5-10% ammonia, NH3. Mixing bleach with cleansers containing ammonia leads to the formation of a family of potentially toxic compounds known as chloramines. These toxic gases have acrid fumes that can bum mucous membranes. Scented bleaches can mask one s natural ability to detect these harmful fumes. 

The main component of bleach is sodium hypochlorite, NaOCl, which consists of sodium ions, Na1, and hypochlorite ions, OC1. What products are formed when this compound is reacted with the hydrochloric acid, HCl, of toilet bowl cleaner ... 

Many people mix cleaners to their peril. Mixing of bleach (sodium hypochlorite) with ammonia results in the generation of mono-, di-, and tri-chloramines, as shown in Fig. 11.1.
