Abstract:
An aqueous decontaminating composition having a total weight, wherein the composition comprises:(A) an amount of H.sub.2 O.sub.2 less than or equal to 60% by weight, based on the total weight of said composition;(B) an amount of an RCO.sub.3 H/RCO.sub.2 H mixture, where R is methyl or ethyl, wherein there is a weight ratio of said mixture to the hydrogen peroxide, wherein the weight ratio of said mixture to the hydrogen peroxide is between 0.15/1 and 0.85/1;(C) an amount of a silver component as a source of Ag.sup.+ ions, wherein the silver component is selected from the group consisting of silver salts and complexes, wherein there is a weight ratio of said silver component to the hydrogen peroxide, wherein the weight ratio of said silver component to the hydrogen peroxide is between 0.0005/1 and 0.015/1;(D) an amount of a stabilizer, wherein there is a weight ratio of said stabilizer to the hydrogen peroxide, wherein the weight ratio of said stabilizer to the hydrogen peroxide is between 0.0005/1 and 0.025/1; andan amount of water to make up to 100% by weight.
