Compositions containing a visible colorant and methods for cleaning and decontamination

摘要: Improved compositions containing a visible coloring agent, such as colored pigment or dye, together with polymer hydroxylated aliphate alcohol, surfactant and in some embodiments, therapeutic agent biocide, are disclosed. The detectable is readily under normal white light, provides technique for monitoring disturbed undistrubed areas on surface. of the further defined imparting color to composition that remains virtually constant upon contact contaminant change pH composition, surface other environment which it exposed. Such useful described methods cleaning and/or decontaminating surface, decontamination equipment clothing used during hazardous spill response. adherent variety different materials, including Teflon®. This makes preparations particularly non-flat curved surfaces, protective garments. compositions, particular include visually (such pigment), ethoxylate alcohol), emulsifier carboxymethyl cellulose), an extender PEG), solvent d-limonene). These may also water suitable diluent.
