Abstract

A B S T R A C T

A method for packaging a stain removing agent in paste form in capsules, characterised in that using gelatine as a starting material for capsules which can be deformed by the action of pressure a basically anhydrous composition of the stain removing agent in paste form is selected substan-tially avoiding low molecular weight alcohols.

Description

~0427S4 An apparatus has already been proposed for taking up in portions a stain removing agent, preferably in paste form, in the case of which the stain removing agent is enclosed in capsules which can be deformed ~y the action of pressure and which are placed, preferably separately, in receiving troughs of a receiving plate and covered by a covering foil extending over the receiviny plate.
The aim of the present invention is to propose a method in accordance with which the stain removing agent in paste form can be filled into the capsules, that is to say providi~g the basic requirements for the use of the previously proposed apparatus.
The solution to this problem involves difficulties even as regards the choice of the material of the capsules.-The plastic foils offered for the production of cap-sules are generally not suitable for the packaging of stain re-moving agents in paste form. Stain removing agents must in fact comprise solvents for the stains to be removed which usually ; comprise grease or fat. If the stain removing agents are to be of universal application, use can be made of hydrocarbons or chlorinated hydrocarbons as solvents which make up up to 64~ of the paste. These solvents however attack the plastics offered for production of the capsules, that is to say they cause swelling and diffusion occurs.
There are naturally such plastics in existence as can withstand the attack of such hydrocarbons or chlorinated hydrocarbons but however these plastics are much too expensive in production and further processing for them to be suitable for use in a mass-produced article as represented by stain removing capsules.

1~)4~7S9 ~ s a capsule material for packaging chemical products, more particularly pharmaceutical pro~ucts and medicaments, the use of gelatine has already been proposed. ~lowever, gelatine also is not generally suitable for the packaging in capsules of stain removing agents in paste form. Since stain removing agents in paste form comprise low molecular weight alcohols, the gelatine is dissolved by such alcohols and in any case, even if this should not occur, it must be expected that such alcohols will diffuse to the outside through the gelatine capsule so that the composition of the stain removing agent in paste form is changed in an unintended manner.
Naturally stain removing agents have been proposed which do not comprise any alcohols. ~owever the range of use of such stain removing agents is so extraordinarily limited that they have hardly found any practical application.
In order to attain the aim forming the basis of the ; invention, it is therefore necessary to suit the capsule material to the composition of the stain removing agent in such a manner that the capsule material is not attacked by the stain removing agent or, respectively, its components and it is also necessary to ensure that components of the stain removing agent cannot diffuse through the capsule material.
It is only when these requirements are fulfilled that it is possible to maintain the efficacy of the stain removing agent in paste form even in the case of packaging in capsules which can be deformed by the action of pressure.
In accordance with the invention as a material for the capsules use is made of gelatine and for the stain removing agent in paste form a substantially anhydrous composition is employed substantially avoiding any low molecular weight alcohols.

Althougll there exists the possibility of hardening gelatine, such gelatinc is still sensitive to moisture and can therefore not be used for the packaging of conventional stain removing agents in paste form.
Since air generally contains moisture, it may occur, for example in the case of storage of such stain removing agent capsules that they are affected on the outside by the atmos-pheric moisture and, for example in a packaging bottle, sticked to each other. Experience has, however, shown that this effect from the outside never proceeds so far that the capsules become unusable. In order, however, to avoid such unpleasant handling of the capsules it is to be recommended that the capsules should be packaged in accordance with the previous proposal individually in push-through type packages.
` Preferably the composition of the stain removing agent in paste form is selected as follows using gelatine as capsule material:
cyclohexanol5% to 7%
isopropanol0% to 3%
` 20 toluene15% to 25%
1,2-dichloroethane 0% to 20%
l,l,l-trichloroethane 40% to 65%
perfume 0% to 0.5 pulverulent solids 6% to 10%
In the following examples given, which only repre-sent a selection from a number of possible compositions, gelatine is always employed as the capsule material:
