Abstract

Low temperature bleaching systems involving sodium perborate and an activator such as tetra acetyl ethylene diamine (TAED), with peracetic acid formation, are commonly used in Europe. Environmentally friendly bleaching agents such as carbohydrate derivatives (mono, oligo, anhydro saccharides, polyols and amino sugar acetates) could also be good products with bleaching activator properties. Correlation structure-reactivity was established; active acetyl groups were identified for each type of molecule in order to understand the effect of their nature and configuration, and to determine the role of neighbouring groups.
