This Draft Malawi Standard specifies requirements for two types of detergent-disinfectants based on quaternary ammonium compounds and other chemical agents (such as compatible surface-active agents and phosphates) that are miscible with water and intended for use on inanimate surfaces that have been cleaned with potable water and have had gross soil removed, and are free from visible soil.
Compounds with other nitrogen function (excl. amine-function compounds; oxygen-function amino-compounds; quaternary ammonium salts and hydroxides; lecithin and other phosphoaminolipids; carboxyamide-function compounds; amide-function compounds of carbonic acid; carboxyimide-function, imine-function or nitrile-function compounds; diazo-, azo- or azoxy-compounds; organic derivatives of hydrazine or of hydroxylamine) (HS code(s): 2929); Chemicals for purification of water (ICS code(s): 71.100.80)
