As used in this disclosure, the term “essence” may refer generally to a substance in concentrated form derived from a plant, material, or the like. An essence may include linalool that may provide an appealing scent or aroma and may function as a deodorant. An essence may include linalyl acetate that may provide an appealing scent or aroma and may function as a deodorant. An essence may also include an essential oil, natural oil, perfume, or scent in an optional solution such as alcohol.
As used in this disclosure, the terms “aerosol” or “aerosolized” may refer generally to a substance being suspended in air such that it is considered fine spray. A means of aerosolizing a substance may include converting the substance into a fine spray by providing a substance of small enough particle size that the substance may be moved in a stream of gas or air such that the substance can be dispersed.
The present disclosure provides a composition which may comprise, in a mixture, approximately 82.9 wt. % ethyl alcohol, 9.8 wt. % propylene glycol, and 7.3 wt. % essence such as linalool, linalyl acetate, or as combination thereof. The ethyl alcohol, propylene glycol, and essence may be combined in an admixture.
The present disclosure provides a composition which may comprise, in a mixture, approximately 41.45 wt. % ethyl alcohol, 4.9 wt. % propylene glycol, and 3.65 wt. % essence such as linalool, linalyl acetate, or as combination thereof. The composition may be aerosilized in combination with up to at least one of 15 wt. % propane or 35 wt. % butane.
The present disclosure provides a composition which may comprise, in a mixture, 35-45 wt. % ethyl alcohol, 4-9 wt. % 1,2-propanediol, and essence such as 0.1-0.5 wt. % linalool, 0.1-0.5 wt. % linalyl acetate, or as a combination thereof.
The present disclosure provides a method of treating an environment by providing a composition which may comprise, in a mixture, 35-45 wt. % ethyl alcohol, 4-9 wt. % 1,2-propanediol, and essence. The composition may be aerosilized in combination with 0.6-1.8 wt. % dipropylene glycol, 3-17 wt. % propane, 31-39 wt. % butane and applied to an environment in an effective amount to treat the environment such that airborne bacteria and odor are illuminated.
The present disclosure provides a method of making a composition which may comprise, in a mixture, 35-45 wt. % ethyl alcohol, 4-9 wt. % 1,2-propanediol, 0.6-1.8 wt. % dipropylene glycol, 13-17 wt. % propane, and 31-39 wt. % butane.
The compositions disclosed may be aerosolized according to conventional means via the inclusion of propellants such as propane, butane, or any other suitable propellant. The compositions disclosed may be aerosolized and stored in a suitable can or bottle under pressure. The can or bottle may be opened to force the composition and propellant out as the pressurized propellant expands.
The compositions of the present disclosure may be prepared in a vessel, such as but not limited to, a batching cylinder or centrifuge, by preparing an admixture of ethyl alcohol and propylene glycol at a stirring speed ranging from about 100 revolutions per minute to about 200 revolutions per minute. The admixture may be mixed for about 5 minutes. Essence may be added to the admixture and the composition may be mixed for an additional period of time ranging from about 10 minutes to about 20 minutes. The admixture may be provided in an aerosolized spray via the introduction of butane or propane to a pressurized container such that it may be dispersed in air to sanitize and reduce odor.
In some embodiments, the pressurized container is constructed of aluminum to regulate and maintain a suitable temperature of the composition within the container. This aids in preventing the flammable contents from combusting.
