Abstract
Deodorant-dispensing products include volatile solid deodorant, release retardant which will cause the deodorant to vaporize slowly over an extended period of time, a binder and/or carrier or flotation agent such as paraffin or gelatin, and perhaps other ingredients such as sawdust or clay as absorbent and biodegradant material. The product may take various forms. One form is an extrudable gel which will adhere to a surface and will solidify quickly on exposure to air. Such gel can also be used as a vehicle for insecticides or insect repellents. Another product is a solid, useful for deodorizing heated malodorous organic material such as animal, fish or poultry waste which is being rendered. A further solid product for deodorizing liquid and/or fumes emitted from such liquid is floatable and can have an adjunct incorporating biodegradant for biodegrading material of the liquid. The floater can include two components, one in the form of an annulus and the second, a core received in the aperture of the annulus and carried by it. Suitable deodorants are musk xylene, vanillin, lemon oil or limonene, and 2,3 butanedione. Suitable release retardants are paradichlorobenzene, paranitrochlorobenzene, dinitrobenzene, dinitrotoluene, dinitronaphthalene, dichloronitrobenzene, dinitrochlorobenzene, and benzophenone. Biodegradants include bacterial cultures, fungi and enzymes. Nutrients for such material may also be provided.
