Description

  The present invention relates to a hard surface liquid cleaning composition and a hard surface cleaning method.

  In general, an anionic surfactant is used for a hard surface cleaner such as a bathroom cleaner composition in order to impart cleaning power to soap residue and sebum stain.

  On the other hand, the environment around the water such as the bathroom is high in humidity, and the presence of soap residue and sebum stains promotes the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria, and stains derived from bacteria such as pink stains and mold stains occur. Cheap. Since these stains are very difficult to remove, for example, bleaching and sterilization removal is performed using a strong oxidizing agent such as hypochlorous acid and an alkaline agent. Hypochlorous acid is useful because it has excellent immediate effect and can effectively remove bacteria-derived stains by cleaning in a short time, but there is a concern about the generation of chlorine and it has a unique odor, so it is easy to use. It is difficult. For this reason, in general, in order to avoid the occurrence of dirt derived from these bacteria as much as possible, it is possible to carry out frequent cleaning or daily cleaning.

  One of the conspicuous stains in a living environment such as a water environment is pink stains typified by deposits exhibiting a reddish color such as red or pink. Pink stains are particularly prominent at sites such as drains, packings, faucets, bathroom floors, and the bottoms of containers such as washbasins and shampoo bottles. Pink stains are also a nuisance stain for the cleaner because they are regenerated immediately after cleaning. Pink stains are not only difficult to remove, but also have a slimy feeling in addition to the unusual appearance. Development of a method for effectively removing pink stains and keeping the water around clean is desired.

  In order to effectively clean the microorganism-derived soil, it is conceivable to add a quaternary ammonium type cationic surfactant to the cleaning agent or treatment agent for the purpose of imparting a bactericidal effect. Patent Document 1 describes a technique in which a specific solvent and a cationic surfactant are used in combination as an antibacterial agent effective for pink stains derived from bathroom microorganisms. Further, Patent Document 2 discloses a technique for a carpet mite control detergent containing benzyl alcohol, a glycol solvent, and a cationic surfactant, and it is described that the technique of the publication has a bactericidal effect. Has been. Furthermore, Patent Literature 3 and Patent Literature 4 disclose a technique of a hard surface cleaning composition containing benzyl alcohol, a glycol solvent, and a cationic surfactant.
