Sorbent composition with polysaccharide clumping agent and boron-based cross-linking agent
DCFirst Claim
1. A substantially dry sorbent litter composition consisting essentially of a dry mix of a particulate earth substrate, a polysaccharide in an amount sufficient to improve the inherent clumping ability of the particulate earth substrate upon contact with liquid, and at least one boron-based cross-linking agent in an amount in the range of from about 0.01 to about 0.5% by weight based on the weight of the composition.

Abstract
A sorbent litter composition comprising a dry mix of a particulate earth substrate, polysaccharide in an amount sufficient to improve the inherent clumping ability of the particulate earth substrate upon contact with liquid, and at least one boron-based cross-linking agent in an amount substantially less than the polysaccharide. The invention further comprises a method for preparation of a sorbent litter composition.
