Abstract

A peroxide delivery system is produced. The peroxide delivery system includes a dry powder that releases the peroxide quickly and completely when needed. The peroxide delivery system may be produced by combining a liquid peroxide or peroxide solution with an inorganic solid support that is inert to the peroxide and is capable of adsorbing large amounts of the liquid peroxide or peroxide solution while remaining dry to the touch. Methods of combining the inorganic solid support with the liquid peroxide or peroxide solution are disclosed. The peroxide delivery system can be formulated in preparations of powders, liquids, foams, sprays, gels, ointments, creams, sticks, or pastes that can be utilized in a variety of applications such as cleaning, stain removal and antiseptic products, for example.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A delivery system for at least one peroxide compound comprising:
a) a hydrophilic inorganic solid support selected from the group consisting of precipitated silica, fumed silica and mixtures thereof, wherein the hydrophilic inorganic solid support is inert to the at least one peroxide compound and is capable of adsorbing a liquid while remaining dry to the touch; and
b) the at least one peroxide compound, wherein the at least one peroxide compound is a liquid peroxide or is in a liquid solution and is capable of being adsorbed by the hydrophilic inorganic solid support;
whereby the at least one peroxide compound is adsorbed by the hydrophilic inorganic solid support while the hydrophilic inorganic solid support remains dry to the touch, thereby forming a dry to the touch delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound; wherein the delivery system comprises at least one stabilizer for the at least one peroxide compound; and
wherein the at least one peroxide compound has an initial active oxygen content and wherein the at least one peroxide compound retains at least 80% of the initial active oxygen content after storage for 1 week at 50° C.

2. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrophilic inorganic solid support has a pH less than 6.

3. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 1 wherein the hydrophilic inorganic solid support comprises less than 50 ppm of any individual contaminant selected from the group consisting of Al, Ca, Fe, K, Mg, Ti, and Zr.

4. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one peroxide compound comprises a solution of hydrogen peroxide in water.

5. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 4 wherein the solution of hydrogen peroxide in water comprises at least 70% hydrogen peroxide.

6. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 5 wherein the solution of hydrogen peroxide in water comprises at least 50% hydrogen peroxide.

7. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 1 , wherein the fumed silica has a pH less than 6.

8. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 1 wherein the fumed silica comprises less than 50 ppm of any individual contaminant selected from the group consisting of Al, As, Ba, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Ni, P, Pb, Sb, Si, Sn, Sr, Ti, V, W, Zn, and Zr.

9. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 1 wherein the fumed silica comprises less than 50 ppm of any individual contaminant selected from the group consisting of Al, Ca, Fe, K, Mg, Ti, and Zr.

10. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 1 , wherein the fumed silica comprises less than 10 ppm of any individual contaminant selected from the group consisting of Al, Ca, Fe, K, Mg, Ti, and Zr.

11. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 1 wherein the at least one peroxide compound comprises a solution of hydrogen peroxide in water.

12. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 11 , wherein the solution of hydrogen peroxide in water comprises at least 0.001% by weight of the stabilizer for the hydrogen peroxide.

13. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 11 wherein the solution of hydrogen peroxide in water comprises at least 70% hydrogen peroxide.

14. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 1 wherein the liquid peroxide weight or the liquid solution weight comprises at least 70% of the total delivery system weight.

15. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 1 wherein the liquid peroxide weight or the liquid solution weight comprises at least 50% of the total delivery system weight.

16. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one peroxide compound is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen peroxide, peracetic acid, perborates, percarbonates, organic peroxides, persulfate salts, peroxyacids, and mixtures thereof.

17. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one stabilizer is selected from the group consisting of stannates, polyols, diols, carboxylates, phosphates, pyrophosphates, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and salts thereof, amine-substituted organophosphonic acids and their salts, adipic acid and salts thereof, phosphoric acid and salts thereof, succinic acid and salts thereof, butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), phenols, and mixtures thereof.

18. The delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one peroxide compound has an initial active oxygen content and wherein the at least one peroxide compound retains at least 90% of the initial active oxygen content after storage for 1 week at 50° C.

19. A delivery system for at least one peroxide compound comprising:
a) hydrophilic fumed silica, wherein the fumed silica is inert to the at least one peroxide compound, is capable of adsorbing up to 70% of a liquid by weight of the delivery system while remaining dry to the touch, has a pH less than 6, and contains less than 50 ppm of any individual contaminant selected from the group consisting of Al, Ca, Fe, K, Mg, Ti, and Zr; and
b) the at least one peroxide compound wherein the at least one peroxide compound is a liquid peroxide or is a solution of the at least one peroxide compound in liquid and is capable of being adsorbed by the fumed silica;
whereby up to 70% of the liquid peroxide or the solution of the at least one peroxide compound in liquid by weight of the delivery system is adsorbed by the hydrophilic fumed silica while the hydrophilic fumed silica remains dry to the touch, thereby forming a dry to the touch delivery system for the at least one peroxide compound; wherein the delivery system comprises at least 0.0001% of at least one stabilizer for the at least one peroxide compound; and
wherein the at least one peroxide compound has an initial active oxygen content and wherein the at least one peroxide compound retains at least 80% of the initial active oxygen content after storage for 1 week at 50° C.

20. A delivery system for hydrogen peroxide comprising:
