Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

New stabilizers for solutions of choline hydroxide and related quaternary trialkylalkanolamines are disclosed. The stabilizers are alkyl hydroxylamines, hydrazines, hydrazides, or derivates thereof, including compounds containing more than one such functionality. The new stabilizers are effective at concentrations less than about 1000 ppm, and choline hydroxide solutions stabilized with the compounds described herein typically have Gardner Color change less than about 2.0 after six months at reasonable temperatures.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A composition comprising a quaternary trialkylalkanolamine and a stabilizer selected from the group consisting of a hydrazide with a hydroxylamino substituent, a hydrazine with a hydroxylamino substituent and a mixture thereof. 2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the quaternary trialkylalkanolamine is choline hydroxide. 3. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizer is hydrazine with a hydroxylamino substituent. 4. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the concentration of the stabilizer in the composition is not more than about 500 ppm. 5. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the concentration of the stabilizer in the composition is not more than about 300 ppm. 6. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition has a Gardner Color change less than about 2.0 after 6 months.
