Description
METHOD FOR PROVIDING LAUNDRY DETERGENT WITH CONTROL AND A LAUNDRY APPARATUS AND A LAUNDRY DETERGENT KIT
FIELD OF INVENTION
The present invention relates to a method for providing a laundry detergent to a washing cycle with control, a laundry apparatus with a programmed procedure for providing a laundry detergent, and a laundry detergent kit.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
For laundry detergent products, cleaning performance is a starting point of detergency. Soils or stains on fabrics mostly consist of mixtures of particles, fats and oils, proteins, bleachable dyes and water-soluble materials. Generally speaking, soils or stains resulted from pigments, fats, waxes, denatured proteins and dyes are generally difficult to be removed from fabrics. Washing of fabrics in water, in the broadest sense, is a complex process with interaction of various physical and chemical influences. It is believed that the cleaning effect of a washing process is up to specific interactions among surface of fabrics, soils or stains, and components of detergents.
Many consumers are struggling for various laundry performances, for example, satisfactory removal of soils or stains on fabrics, whiteness retention of white fabrics and/or prevention of color fading or transferring of colored fabrics, in addition to the fundamental cleaning effect. Most laundry detergent products are specially formulated for some certain purposes and no one laundry detergent product can fulfill all needs of those consumers. Some consumers have to store more than one laundry product for different types of fabrics or for different types of soils or stains. Other consumers just use one laundry product for all laundry loads, which will sacrifice some laundry performances or lead to much higher dosing amount of the laundry product such that certain laundry performance can be observed.
Attempts have been made to provide laundry products that can meet consumers’ needs as much as possible. One trend is to develop washing appliances or processes which can dispense different chemicals during different treatment cycles or dispense different chemicals separately during the same treatment cycle, depending on the treatment function to be performed.
A washing process for textiles in an automatic washing machine was developed, wherein active washing substances, structural substances, bleaching agents, optional catalyst, and optional soft rinse agent are maintained in separate containers and added to the washing mixture in pumpable form before or during the washing process, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4110075.
A laundry appliance which can be selectively operated in either manual or automatic modes of operation was described in US2003/0154560A1. In the automatic mode, a laundering operation is initiated upon receiving a single cycle input parameter from the user, while relying on additional operating cycle parameters established by factory preset settings or prior consumer established preferences.
A control for an automatic washer to operate the washing machine through a wash cycle determined based upon various soils or stains in the substrate load to be washed with a wash liquor in a wash zone of the washing machine was described in US2013/0263387A1. The control has a plurality of stain/soil type entries and has dispensing control over at least one wash liquor additive. The control has a user input to permit the user to customize the operation of the control with regard to the dispensing of the various wash liquor additives and a timing mechanism. The control has operational control over the particular wash cycles using the dispensing control to dispense additives to the wash liquor at selected times during the wash cycle. Such a control was also described in US2015/0368841 A.
Recently, a“smart” laundry product dispensing device and method have been developed that can provide a laundry product bespoke to a wash load, as described in WO2017211701A1. The dispensing device, which may be integral to a washing machine or stand alone, comprises a computer module configured to receive user's input concerning a laundry load, based on one or more of criteria: (I) stain identity; (II) fabric identity; (III) user requirements; and (IV) user preferences, and reservoirs containing various compositions. In response to the user’s input information, the device determines a recipe for laundry detergent product composed of one or more compositions provided from the reservoirs. Such“smart” laundry product dispensing device and method were also described in WO 2018134098A1.
It is desirable if a laundry detergent product could exhibit more satisfactory laundry performance and/or meet consumers’ laundry needs as much as possible.

Preferably, the adjunct cleaning agent is selected from chelating agent, enzyme, soil release agent, grease cleaning agent, anti-greying agent and color care agent.
Particularly, the present invention provides a method for providing a laundry detergent to a washing cycle in a washing machine, which comprises
(a) receiving a selection indication from a user based on criteria including, but not being limited to, fabric type and/or color, identity of soil or stain, user’s requirements, user’s preferences, and any combinations thereof; and
(b) determining a laundry detergent recipe and determining the adjunct cleaning agent which shall be dispensed prior to other components of the laundry detergent, in response to the user’s selections; and
(c) dispensing the adjunct cleaning agent and the other components of the laundry detergent recipe following the determination of step (b) from respective component reservoirs.

In the third aspect, the present invention provides a laundry detergent kit, which includes part I and part II,
- part I: at least one adjunct cleaning agent, which is preferably selected from chelating agent,
enzyme, soil release agent, grease cleaning agent, anti-greying agent and color care agent,

There is no particular restriction to the upper limit of the time period between the dispensing of the at least one adjunct cleaning agent and the other components. For the purpose of efficiency, it is preferable that the at least one adjunct cleaning agent is dispensed no more than 10 minutes prior to the other components of the laundry detergent. For example, the at least one adjunct cleaning agent is dispensed prior to other components of the laundry detergent by a period in the range of from 0.5 to 10 minutes, or from 0.5 to 7 minutes, or from 1 to 6 minutes, or from 1.5 to 5 minutes, or from 2 to 5 minutes.
Chelating agent
Chelating agent is known in the art for binding metal cationic ions such as Ca and Mg in water. However, it has been surprisingly found by the inventors that the chelating agent can improve the soil/stain removal performance of the laundry detergent even in deionized water. There is no particular restriction on the chelating agent that may be prior dispensed in the method according to the present invention.
Phosphorus-containing chelating agents were mostly used in the past with the advantage of being inexpensive, compatible with most detergent components (both in solid and liquid detergent formulations) and widely available. Phosphorus-containing chelating agents include for example phosphates such as sodium phosphates, polyphosphates such as sodium hexametaphosphate, and phosphonates such as hydroxyethane diphosphonic acid
(HEDP), aminotri(methylenephosphonic acid) (ATMP), ethylenediamine tetramethylene
phosphonate (EDTMP). However, phosphorus-containing chelating agents have been banned in many countries and regions for environmental reasons.
As environmentally friendly alternatives to the phosphorus-containing chelating agents,
phosphorus-free chelating agents, for example aminopolycarboxylates such
ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) or salts thereof, nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) or salts thereof, diethylene triamine pentaacetate (DTPA), imonodisuccinic acid (IDS) or salts thereof, ethylene diamine-N'N'-disuccinic acid (EDDS) or salts thereof, gluconic acid or salts thereof, methyl glycine N,N-diacetic acid (MGDA) or salts thereof, glutamic acid N,N-diacetic acid (GLDA) or salts thereof, polyasparatic acid or salts thereof have been proposed in laundry detergent products.
Preferably, the chelating agent that may be prior dispensed in the method according to the present invention comprises or consists of methyl glycine N,N-diacetic acid (MGDA) or salts thereof, glutamic acid N,N-diacetic acid (GLDA) or salts thereof, iminodisuccinic acid (IDS) or salts thereof, ethylenediaminedisuccinic acid (EDDS) or salts thereof, polyasparatic acid or salts thereof, or a combination thereof. The salts of those acids, independently from each other, may be alkali metal salts, ammonium salts or substituted ammonium salts or any combinations thereof, preferably sodium, potassium or ammonium salt or any combinations thereof, more preferably trisodium, tripotassium and/or triammonium salt or any combinations thereof, most preferably trisodium salt.
Particularly, the chelating agent that may be prior dispensed in the method according to the present invention is MGDA or a sodium, potassium or ammonium salt or any combinations thereof, more preferably MGDA or trisodium, tripotassium or triammonium salt thereof. Most preferably, the chelating agent is trisodium of MGDA. For example, the trisodium of MGDA is commercially available from BASF under trade name Trilon® M Liquid (40% aqueous solution), Trilon® M
Granules SG (a solid form) and Trilon® M Compactate (a solid form).
There is no particular restriction on the dosage of the chelating agent in the process according to the present invention. The chelating agent may be dispensed in a conventional dosage, such as an amount 3 to 6 % by weight based on the laundry detergent.
It was believed that excess chelating agent in a detergent will result in compatibility problem.
However, in the process according to the present invention, the chelating agent may be dispensed in a dosage higher than the conventional dosage, even by up to 20 times, for example 10 to 20 times, without any compatibility problem.
Enzyme
It is known that different families of enzymes are effective against different classes of soil or stain. There is no particular restriction on the enzyme that may be prior dispensed in the method according to the present invention. Useful enzymes in laundry detergent include proteases, amylases, lipases, mannanases, cellulases and pectate lyases.
Useful proteases include, but are not limited to, subtilisins from Bacillus (e.g. subtilis, lentus, licheniformis, amyloliquefaciens (BPN, BPN’), alcalophilus). Examples of commercially available detergent proteases include, but are not limited to, Alcalase®, Esperase®, Everlase®, Savinase®, Kannase® and Durazym® from NOVOZYMES A/S, and Lavergy™ Pro 104L from BASF.

Two or more species of enzymes may be prior dispensed in the method according to the present invention. It is to be understood that the two or more species of enzymes shall be stored in different component reservoirs before being dispensed in case that those species of enzymes will interact with each other if they are mixed.
In a particular embodiment according to the present invention, the enzyme is selected from proteases.
There is no particular restriction on the dosage of the enzyme in the process according to the present invention. The enzyme may be dispensed in a conventional dosage, or may be lower or higher than the conventional dosage in response to the selection indication from a user.
Soil release agent
Soil release agent is known in the art for enabling stains occurring after treatment with the soil release agent to be more easily cleaned in later washing procedures. Suitable soil release agent includes polymers typically having charged and neutral hydrophilic segments to hydrophilize the surface of hydrophobic fibers, such as polyester and nylon, and hydrophobic segments to deposit on hydrophobic fibers and remain adhered thereto through completion of washing and rinsing cycles, thereby serving as an anchor for the hydrophilic segments. There is no particular restriction on the soil release agent that may be prior dispensed in the method according to the present invention.
Examples of soil release agent include, but are not limited to, cellulose derivatives such as cellulose ether and cellulose hydroxy ethers; polyvinyl esters grafted onto polyalkylene oxides;
polyvinyl alcohols; anionic derivatives of polymers from terephthalic acid and polyethylene glycol, as described for example in E. Smulders in“Laundry Detergents” Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2002, page 88; hydrophobically modified polycarboxylate polymers as described for example in
EP0955791A1 ; or polyester copolymers based on ethylene terephthalate and/or propylene terephthalate and polyoxyethylene terephthalate units; sulfonated polyester oligomers obtained by sulfonation of an oligomer derived from ethoxylated allylic alcohol, from dimethyl terephthalate and from 1 ,2-propylene diol, containing from 1 to 4 sulfonated groups; polyester copolymers based on propylene terephthalate and polyoxyethylene terephthalate units and ending with ethyl or methyl units or polyester oligomers ending with alkylpolyethoxy groups or sulfopolyethoxy or sulfoaroyl anionic groups; sulfonated polyester copolymers derived from terephthalic, isophthalic and sulfoisophthalic acid, anhydride or diester and from a diol, as described in US 20040067865A1.
Examples of commercially available polymeric soil release agents include, but at not limited to, REPEL-O-TEX® PF594 and REPEL-O-TEX® SF-2 from Rhodia; TexCare® SRA-100 and TexCare® SRA-300 from Clariant; Marloquest® SL from Sasol, and Sokalan® SR 400 from BASF.
Grease cleaning agent
Grease cleaning agent is also known in the art, which has balanced hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties such that they can remove grease particles from fabrics and surfaces. There is no particular restriction on the grease cleaning agent that may be prior dispensed in the method according to the present invention.
Suitable grease cleaning agent include polymers, for example, but being not limited to, amphiphilic alkoxylated polymers comprising a core structure and a plurality of alkoxylate groups attached to that core structure. These may comprise alkoxylated polyalkylenimines, for example, having an inner polyethylene oxide block and an outer polypropylene oxide block. Such compounds may include, but are not limited to, ethoxylated polyethyleneimine, ethoxylated hexamethylene diamine, and sulfated derivatives thereof. Polypropoxylated derivatives may also be useful.
Anti-greying agent
It is known that redeposition of soil detached from fabrics during washing may result in greying appearance of the fabrics, which can be reduced with use of the anti-greying agent (also called
anti-redeposition agent). There is no particular restriction on the anti-greying agent that may be prior dispensed in the method according to the present invention.
Examples of anti-greying agent include cellulose ethers such as carboxymethyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, hydroxyalkyl cellulose and mixed ethers; polyethylene glycols and polypropylene glycols having a molecular weight of from about 950 to about 30,000; modified polysaccharides such as carboxylated polysaccharides; ethoxylated or propoxylated polyethylenimines with an average molecular weight Mw of from about 5,000 to about 250,000 g/mol, having 80 to 99% by weight ethylene oxide side chains based on total weight of the ethoxylated polyethylenimines, such as those commercially available under the trade mark Sokalan® HP 20 from BASF; substituted (including quaternized and oxidized) polyamine polymers, such as ethoxylated polyhexamethylene diamines which are quaternized and optionally sulfated and have an average molecular weight Mw of from about 2,000 to about 10,000 g/mol; or polycarboxylates with an average molecular weight Mw of from about 2,000 to about 100,000 g/mol, such as homo or copolymers based on acrylic acid and/or maleic acid, which are for example commercially available under the trade mark Sokalan® PA from BASF polyvinylpyrrolidone, poly(vinyl alcohol), poly(vinylpyridine-N-oxide) may also be mentioned.
In a particular embodiment according to the present invention, the anti-greying agent is selected from (i) a polycarboxylates with an average molecular weight Mw of from about 2,000 to about 100,000 g/mol, preferably homo or copolymers based on acrylic acid and/or maleic acid, and (ii) an ethoxylated polyethylenimines with an average molecular weight Mw of from about 5,000 to about 250,000 g/mol, having 80 to 99% by weight ethylene oxide side chains based on total weight of the ethoxylated polyethylenimine, and (iii) an ethoxylated polyhexamethylene diamine, quaternized and optionally sulfated, with an average molecular weight Mw of from about 2,000 to about 10,000 g/mol, and any combinations thereof.
There is no particular restriction on the dosage of the polymeric soil release agent, polymeric grease cleaning agent and the anti-greying agent in the process according to the present invention. Those agents, independently from each other, may be dispensed in a conventional dosage, or may be lower or higher than the conventional dosage in response to the selection indication from a user.
Color care agent
During washing process, a certain amount of dye molecules are often detached from colored textiles, often called as“bleeding”, which can in turn attach to other textiles, often called as“dye transferring”, which are troublesome problems. In order to counteract these undesired bleeding and/or dye transferring, color care agent such as dye fixation agent (DFA) and/or dye transfer inhibitor (DTI) are often used. There is no particular restriction on the dye fixation agent (DFA) and the dye transfer inhibitor (DTI) as the color care agent that may be prior dispensed in the method according to the present invention.
Examples of suitable dye fixation agent may be homo- or copolymers of diallyldimethylammonium chloride, a reaction product of cyanamides with aldehydes and ammonium salts, a reaction product of cyanamides with aldehydes and monoamines, a reaction product of monoamines and/or polyamines with epichlorohydrin, a reaction product of polyamines with cyanamides and
amidosulfuric acid, and any combinations thereof.
The monoamines used may be primary, secondary and tertiary amines. These may be aliphatic amines such as dialkylamines or aromatic amines. In addition, it is also possible to use nitrogen- containing heterocyclic compounds. The polyamines may be diamines, triamines, tetraamines, etc., and also N-alkylpolyamines and N,N-dialkylpolyamines.
The ammonium salts are salts of ammonia or the abovementioned monoamines or polyamines with different inorganic or organic acids.
The aldehydes are, for example, aliphatic aldehydes such as formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde, butyraldehyde; dialdehydes such as glyoxal; unsaturated aldehydes such as acrolein, crotonaldehyde, and aromatic aldehydes such as benzaldehyde.

Examples
General Procedures and Settings for the Test Laundering Process
A laundering process was simulated in lab using a Terg-o-meter (RHLQ-III, from Shanghai Bank Equipment Co. Ltd, China.) which includes six barrels with respective rotor blades as washing units, generally following GBT 13174-2008. The washing units were operated at the same stirring speed of 120 rotation per minute (rpm) and each contains 1 L water. Unless otherwise specified,
four samples of a fabric (square pieces of 10 cm x 10 cm) were immersed into water in each barrel, to which the adjunct cleaning agent and the basic detergent formulation were added, the washing cycle being carried out at 30 °C. After the washing, the samples were removed from the washing units, drained and rinsed twice in 10 L tap water for 30 seconds, followed by drying at ambient temperature overnight.
Measurement for Whiteness Change
The samples were measured photometrically before and after the laundering process in
accordance with GBT 13174-2008, by determining reflectance values (in %) representing the degrees of whiteness with a sphere reflectance spectrometer (SF 500 type with a wavelength range of 360 to 700nm, optical geometry d/8°, from Datacolor, USA) with a UV cut-off filter, at a wavelength of 457 nm. Reflectance change (AR) represents the whiteness change of a sample before and after the laundering and is used to evaluate soil/stain removal performance and/or anti graying performance of each detergent formulation and detergent dispensing method in following Examples. The measurement value as reported is given as an average of all samples of a fabric. Higher value of AR shows better soil/stain removal performance, and lower absolute value of AR shows better anti-graying performance.
The reflectance change is calculated in accordance with following equation:
AR = Rafter— Rbefore
in which
Rafter is the reflectance of the sample after the laundering process, and
Rbefore is the reflectance of the sample before the laundering process.
Measurement for Dye Transfer Inhibiting Effect
For characterization of dye transfer inhibiting effect, DE is conventionally adopted in the art, which is calculated as CIE 1976 color difference according to DIN EN ISO 11664-4 (June 2012) in accordance with following equation:
AE=(AL*2 + Aa*2 + Ab*2)1/2
in which
The values L* before, a* before, and b* before are measured on white samples before the laundering process. The values L*afier, a*afier and b* after are measured on the sample after the laundering. Standard colorimetric measurement was used to obtain L*, a* and b* values. Lower value of DE shows better dye transfer inhibiting performance.
Following materials were used as the laundry detergent components in Examples:
Following fabrics were used for tests in the Examples:
EMPA116, cotton stained with blood/milk/ink, from Swissatest Testmaterialien AG, Switzerland; WFK 10D, cotton stained with pigment/sebum, from WFK Testgewebe GmbH, Germany;
WFK 80A, white cotton from WFK Testgewebe GmbH, Germany;
WFK 30A, white polyester from WFK Testgewebe GmbH, Germany;
JB 02: cotton stained with pigment/protein, standard soiled fabric according to GB-T13174-2008, available from China research institute of daily chemical industry; and
JB 03: cotton stained with pigment/sebum, standard soiled fabric according to GB-T13174-2008; available from China research institute of daily chemical industry.
Example 1 Detergent Performance Test with the Chelating Agent
A basic detergent formulation as shown in Table 1 was used to evaluate the soil/stain removal performances. The laundering process was carried out in accordance with the general procedure
as described hereinabove in 1 liter of water with hardness of 50 ppm (50 mg/L; Ca/Mg 3:2). 1 g/L of the basic detergent formulation and 0 or 5% of T rilon® M Liquid with respect to the dosage of the basic detergent formulation were added in accordance with the specific settings as shown in Table 2 1
The laundering process was also carried out in accordance with the general procedure as described herein above in 1 liter of deionized water. 2 g/L of the basic detergent formulation and 0 or 5% of Trilon® M Liquid with respect to the dosage of the basic detergent formulation were added in accordance with the specific settings as shown in Table 2-2. Table 1
Table 2-1
It can be seen from the test results as shown in Tables 2-1 and 2-2 that addition timing of the chelating agent is important for the soil/stain removal performance. Prior addition of the chelating agent resulted in higher AR values (Test Nos. 3 and 3’), while later addition of the chelating agent resulted in lower AR value (Test Nos. 4 and 4’), both compared with the simultaneous additions of the chelating agent and the basic detergent formulation (F1) (Test Nos. 2 and 2’).
It was believed that the main function of a chelating agent in a laundry detergent is to combine or remove the hard water ions to prevent reaction between Ca, Mg and other metallic cations in hard water and surfactant anions to form insoluble compounds which precipitate onto fabrics and washing machines and are difficult to remove. It was surprisingly found that the prior addition of the chelating agent can improve the soil/stain removal performance not only in water with hardness of 50 ppm, but also in deionized water which contain no or negligible metallic cations.
Example 2 Detergent Performance Test with the Chelating Agent
Three basic detergent formulations, regular, concentrated and super concentrated, as shown in Table 3 were used to evaluate the low temperature soil/stain removal performances. The laundering process was carried out in accordance with the general procedure as described hereinabove in 1 liter of water with hardness of 250 ppm (250 mg/L; Ca/Mg 3:2). 1 g/L Trilon® M
Liquid and 2g/L of the basic detergent formulation were added in accordance with the specific settings as shown in Table 4. The washing cycle ran at 15°C for 20 mins.
Table 3
Table 4
The improvement of soil/stain removal performance by means of prior addition of the chelating agent can also be observed at a lower washing temperature.
Example 3 Detergent Performance Test with the Chelating Agent
Three basic detergent formulations, regular, concentrated and super concentrated, as shown in Table 3 were used to evaluate the soil/stain removal performances in hard water. The laundering process was carried out in accordance with the general procedure as described hereinabove in 1 liter of water with hardness of 400 ppm hardness (400 mg/L; Ca/Mg 3:2). 1 g/L Trilon® M Liquid and 2 g/L of the basic detergent formulation were added in accordance with the specific settings as shown in Table 5. The washing cycle ran for 20 mins.
Table 5
It can be seen that the improvement of soil/stain removal performance by means of prior addition of the chelating agent can be observed in case of water with a hardness of up to 400ppm.
Example 4 Detergent Performance Test with the Chelating Agent
A basic detergent formulation as shown in Table 6 was used to evaluate the soil/stain removal performances. The laundering process was carried out in accordance with the general procedure as described hereinabove in 1 liter of water with hardness of 250 ppm (250 mg/L; Ca/Mg 3:2). 1 g/L Trilon® M Liquid and 2 g/L of the basic detergent formulation were added in accordance with the specific settings as shown in Table 7.
Table 6
Table 7
It can be seen from the test results as shown in Table 7 that the prior addition of the chelating agent can significantly shorten washing time without compromise of soil/stain removal performance.
Example 5 Detergent Performance Test with the Enzyme A basic detergent formulation (F5) as shown in Table 6 was used to evaluate the soil/stain removal performances. The laundering process was carried out in accordance with the general procedure as described hereinabove in 1 liter of water with hardness of 250 ppm (250 mg/L; Ca/Mg 3:2). 0 or 0.2 g/L of Lavergy™ Pro 104L and 2 g/L of the basic detergent formulation were added in accordance with the specific settings as shown in Table 8. The washing cycle ran with three pieces of the fabric in each barrel.
Table 8
It can be seen from the test results as shown in Table 8 that addition timing of the enzyme is important for the soil/stain removal performance. Prior addition of the enzyme resulted in higher AR values (Test No. 3), while later addition of the enzyme resulted in comparative AR values (Test No.
4), both compared with the simultaneous additions of the enzyme and the basic detergent formulation (F5) (Test No. 2).
Example 6 Detergent Performance Test of the Anti-greying Agent
A basic detergent formulation as shown in Table 9 was used to evaluate the anti-greying performances. The laundering process was carried out in accordance with the general procedure as described hereinabove in 1 liter of water with hardness of 250 ppm (250 mg/L; Ca/Mg 3:2). 2 g/L of the basic detergent formulation, 0 or 5% of Sokalan® HP 20 with respect to the dosage of the basic detergent formulation, and 10g of a soil mixture were added in accordance with the specific settings as shown in Table 10.
The soil mixture consists of 75 wt% deionised water, 20 wt% clay, 3.75 wt% peanut oil (Shandong Luhua Group Co., Ltd.) and 1.25 wt% mineral oil 26#, which was prepared by adding the clay (yellow clay under the tradename of WFK clay 05023, from WFK Testgewebe GmbH, Germany) into deionized water, stirring at 6500 rpm for 10 min, and then adding the mixture of peanut oil and mineral oil slowly and homogenizing for an additional 10 min. The obtained slurry was stirred continuously until being added into the washing cycle.
Table 9
Table 10
*the values given for AR are absolute values of the calcu ated values.
It can be seen from the test results as shown in Table 10 that addition timing of the anti-greying agent is important for the anti-greying performance. Prior addition of the anti-greying agent resulted in lower AR absolute values (Test No. 3) compared with the simultaneous additions of the anti greying agent and the basic detergent formulation (F6) (Test No. 2) and the later addition of the dye transfer inhibiting agent (Test No.4).
Example 7 - Detergent Performance Test with the Dye Transfer Inhibiting Agent
A basic detergent formulation as shown in Table 11 was used to evaluate the dye transfer inhibition performances. The laundering process was carried out in accordance with the general procedure as described hereinabove in 1 liter of water with hardness of 250 ppm (250 mg/L; Ca/Mg 3:2). 2 g/L of the basic detergent formulation and a 0 or 0.3% of Sokalan® HP 66 with respect to the dosage of the basic detergent formulation, and 0.005 g/L Direct Red 83.1 were added in accordance with the specific settings as shown in Table 12. The washing cycle ran with six pieces of the fabric in each barrel.
Table 11
Table 12
It can be seen from the test results as shown in Table 12 that addition timing of the dye transfer inhibiting agent is important for the dye transfer inhibiting performance. Prior addition of the dye transfer inhibiting agent resulted in lower DE absolute values (Test No. 3) compared with the
simultaneous additions of the dye transfer inhibiting agent and the basic detergent formulation (F7) (Test No.2) and the later addition of the dye transfer inhibiting agent (Test No.4).
