Description

Basic Polvsa-ccharides The present invention relates to new polysaccharides, to a process for their preparation and to their use.

Basic and cationic polysaccharides are much in demand as auxiliary agents for the manufacture of paper, as starting materials for the p;^oduction of highly active filter materials used for medical purposes and in the food industry, and as additives for hygienic and cosmetic cleansing and skin care products. As a general rule, they are the more effective the larger the number of basic and/or cationic groups they contain.

Basic polysaccharides are used inter alia as ion exchangers (US-A 4 199 485), for the preparation of acid soluble poly-saccharides (VS-A 2 623 041) and as starting materials for the synthesis of cationic polysaccharides (see US-A 2 768 162).
It is therefore desirable to be able to substitute poly-saccharides to a greater or less degree according to the individual requirements. Cellulose sulphonates have long ago been reacted with amines for producing celluloses containing nitrogen, but the degrees of substitution obtained were insufficient (e.g. 0.8~ by weight N; see Angew. Chem. 39, 1509-36 (1926)) and the yields were low (see J. Amer. Chem. Soc. 63, 1688-1691).

Cationisation of cotton for improving the dye absorption capacity for basic dyes is described in GB-PS 1 082 880 and US-A 4 178 438. The agents used for this purpose are N-methylol-chloroacetamide (GB-PS) or N-methylol-~-amino-propionamides (US-PS), which are made to react with the fibre and are then cationised with tertiary amines (GB-PS) or with alkylating agents (VS-PS). The degrees of substitution are low and the maximum amount of basic and hence quaternisable nitrogen is in both cases about 1.3% by s ~ ~ .

According to US-A 3 472 840, cationic cellulose ethers are obt~ined by the alkylation of cellulose hydroxyethyl ether with 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyl-trimethyl ammonium chloride or with 2,3-epoxypropyl-trimethyl ammonium chloride obtained therefrom in the presence of an alkali metal hydroxide. Although the alkylating agent is in many cases used in large excess, the degree of substitution does not exceed 0.4. Much the same applies to the process according to EP-A-233 336 in which the same alkylating agent is proposed for the cationisation of starch under particularly advantageous process conditions. The degree of substitution remains bel;ow 0.2.
Another variation of the process according to US-A-3 472 840 is proposed in EP-A-189 935, which leads to the formation of hydrophobic cationic cellulose ethers. Epoxy quaternary salts are again used as alkylating agents. The results are similar to those of US-A 3 472 840. Higher degrees of substitution are obtained in the cellulose ethers disclosed in US-A 2 768 162. In the examples given there, it is stated that a DS of 0.7 is obtained because a preliminary product already containing this DS is used as starting material. The process appears to be simple and practicable but the starting materials are difficult to obtain. They may be obtained by the processes according to US-A 26 23 041 and US-A 26 23 042 of alkylating celluloses and cellulose ethers with dialkylaminoethyl chloride hydrochloride. In the process according to VS-A 26 23 041, which is carried out in solution, only small proportions by weight of cellulose, based on the total quantity, can be dissolved in a highly concentrated a~ueous solution of trimethylben2yl ammonium hydroxide. This quaternary ammonium base is not only very expensive but also very difficult to regenerate from the salt formed in the process. In the process according to US-A 26 23 042, alkylation is alleged to be carried out in suspension.

This is difficult to understand since again only small quantities of cellulose are used per quantity of reaction mixture and large quantities of the quaternary ammonium base are used as in ~S-A 23 26 041. The use of similar conditions would suggest that here again at least partial solution of the cellulose takes place, as may be recognised from the small quantities of cellulose which can undergo reaction. ~he dialkylaminoethyl chloride hydrochloride used as reactant is ambivalent in its reaction under the conditions of alkylation. It is capable of reacting not only with cellulose but also with itself.
.
In all these cases there are obtained dimeric to oligomeric quaternary ammonium compounds which link pointwise with the cellulose and are capable of simulating a high degree of substitution or are only aggregated with the cellulose and can be removed with difficulty by cleaning operations.

The doubts raised here are supported by DE-A-25 09 937, which describes a process for the cationisation of ethyl cellulose by alkylation with diethylaminoethyl chloride.
In this process, cellulose may be alkylated in the heterogeneous ph2se in the presence of ~aOH as base and only low degrees of substitution, amounting to 0.1 - 0.22, are obtained on the tertiary amino group in spite of the excess alkylating agent used. This preliminary product is then reacted with ethyl chloride to form amino substituted ethyl cellulose. Alternatively, the process may be carried out in solution with previously prepared ethyl cellulose which is then alkylated with diethylaminoethyl chloride.
Even under these more favourable conditions, the degrees of substitution are about equal under comparable conditions.
Even if attempts are made to increase the ~egree of substitution by the use of massive quantities of alkylating agent, as in Examples 4 to 6, the increase achieved is very limited, from 0.30 to 0.38. At the same time, the yield, based on the ~uantity of alkylating agent used, falls disproportionately from 38~ to 20~. Ihe results obviously 52~9 4 , . . .

approach a limiting value which cannot be exceeded even with a great increase in alkylating agent.

All the other processes discussed here are also carried out with cationising agents which are capable of reacting with themselves, with the result that the substitution on the polysaccharide is reduced and byproducts and polymers are formed which contaminate the basic or cationic poly-saccharide and may be impossible to remove. From the formulae given in US-A 34 72 840 it may be seen that poly-ether groups containing quaternary groups are grafted on cellulose and as this grafting may begin on a cell-0~
group, it may with equal probability and possibly even greater probability start with an OH~ ion since both the ion and the alkylating agent are in solution but the cellulose is in the heterogeneous phase.

Furthermore, rapid saponification to the guaternary diol may take place (see Das Papier 35, (12), 555 (1981)).
AlXylation must therefore always be followed by an elaborate process of purification and precipitation to separate the cationised cellulose from the cationic poly-ethers (see Examples 1 to 3 of US-A 34 72 840).
Added to these difficulties are the high cost and well known high toxicity of the above mentioned epoxy quaternary salts. ~he homopolymerisation and autocondensation described above with reference to the example of cationisation with dialkylaminoethyl chloride and epoxy guaternary salts also apply to all of the other alkylating agents mentioned. It is well known that the N-methylol amides of G~ 10 82 880 and US-A 41 78 438 readily react with one another to form unusable byproducts and polymers.

It has been recognised on the basis of the literature available that cationisation of polysaccharides by way of .: -: ::

~ 2~3 ~ 3~
dialkylaminoalkyl derivatives is not practicable in the technical field and alkylation has in practice therefore been carried out almost exclusively with 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyl-trimethyl ammonium chloride mentioned in VS-A
3~ 72 840 and EP-A 233 336 or the 2,3-epoxypropyl-trimethyl ammonium chloride obtained therefrom tsee Das Papier 34 ~1980) pages 575 to 579 (1980); 35 (lOA), pages V 33 - V 38 (1981); and 35 (12), pages 555 - 562 (1981)).

Whichever of the last three classes of compounds mentioned may be used, it is always necessary to observe strict safety measures on account of the high toxicity and cationic polysaccharides obtained with these compounds must be carefully separated from byproducts and all aqueous waste liguors must be worked up and disposed of on account of their content in toxic guaternary byproducts, which can only be done at great expense.

Since the excess alkylating reagent added in the quaternising reactions is used up in side reactions and cannot be recovered, high degrees of substitution could hardly be realised economically.

It was an object of the present invention to prepare basic and cationic polysaccharides having a clearly predetermined and flexibly adjustable substitution and as high a degree of substitution as possible by clearly defined reactions using as far as possible inexpensive reagents.

Esters of carboxymethyl cellulose have already been reacted with amines accordinq to VS-PS 3 904 600. Both the esterification of carboxymethyl cellulose and aminolysis of the ester, however, were carried out by ~ery expensive and complicated methods in solution. A product having the following structural element Cell-C~2CO-N~ ~ COO-C~2CH2-NEt2-~Cl was obtained from aminolysis with 2-diethylamino-p-amino benzoate. This group is unsuitable for the use of basic and cationic polysaccharide derivatives mentioned in the present invention since it is very bulky and contains a readily saponifiable ester group so that splitting off of the group HO-CH2CX2-Net2.HCl may already take place during synthesis of the compound in competition with aminolysis of the cellulose ether; further, during storage and in use in aqueous solution, the basic amino group may be split off, the activity of the polysaccharide derivative may fall and undesirable physiological effects may be produced.

Suitable polysaccharide esters for the preparation of the polysaccharides according to the invention include those ha~inq the structure II as described, for example, in DPS
957 938, EP 104 567 and J. App. Polym. Sci. 32 (6~ 5657-9 (1986) and especially those prepared according to DE P 38 42 947Ø Starting materials for such esters are: Polysaccharides~
including polyglycosanes such as cellulose, various '~ ' ' ' ~ ` .

2 ~ 3 ~ derivatives of cellulose such as methyl cellulose and mixed cellulose ethers such as methyl-hydroxyethyl celluloses, carboxymethyl cellulose and their various salts with sodium, potassium, calcium or ammonium ions, especially ~uaternary ammonium ions: cellulose sulphate with various counterions, e.g. of sodium, potassium, calcium, ammonium or quaternary ammonium groups; starches, dextrins, and glycogen; polyfructosanes such as inulin and graminine; polymannosanes and polygalactosanes; and mixed polysaccharides such as hemicelluloses as well as poly-xylosanes and polyarabinosanes.

Cellulose and its derivatives and starch and dextrins are preferred starting materials, the following being partic-ularly preferred: cellulose, methyl cellulose, ethylcellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose and salts and starches thereof.

Suitable amines for the preparation of the polysaccharide derivatives according to the invention are those having the general structure V. When R3 2nd/or R5 stand for H, the products obtained a~ter the reaction with IV may be insoluble in water and cap2ble of swelling in water as in the case of the structure I in which R = Ia, which indicates cross-linking. When R3 and R5 in formula V are not H, the products obtained are generally soluble in water and in some c2ses also soluble in alcohols.

The solubility of the amino- or zmmonium-polysaccharides according to the invention in alcohols or water depends both on the starting material, on the amine (see above), on the degree of substitution, on the alkylating agent and on the degree of ~uaternisation and may be adjusted according to re~uirement. Thus, for example, bis-primary diamines give rise to cross-linked, insoluble products, primary~
tertiary diamines give rise to soluble products and bifunctional alkylating agents give rise to insoluble polysaccharide derivatives.

In some cases, ~uaternised derivatives also containing carboxyl end groups may form insoluble products, especially after prolonged drying, presu~ably due to a form of "inner"
salt formation. They may, however, readily be brought into by means of small quantities of bases.

The reactions of the carbalkoxy esters of polysaccharides with amines to form amino amides and their alkylation to form cationic polysaccharides should not be carried out on completely dry polysaccharide derivatives as this frequently results in a very slow and insufficient and therefore not accurately reproducible reaction and substitution. The polysaccharides generally contain a few percentages of water so that the addition of water is not necessary in all cases but if the water content is low or unknown it is advisable to add water to the reaction mixture. Ihe amount added may be from 1 to 200% by weight, preferably from 2 to 170~ by weight, more preferably from 3 to 150% by weight, most preferably from 4 to 120% by weight, based on the quantity of polysaccharide put into ~ 5289 19 .

the process. The amount of water added is not very critical but should not be sufficient to cause unduly strong swelling or even solution of the polysaccharide as this would render control of the reaction and working up more 5 difficult.

The reaction is carried out at temperatures from 0 to 160~C, preferably at 10 to 140~C, more preferably at 15 to 125'C and most preferably at 20 to llO-C. Acids or alkalis may be added 25 catalysts in quantities of from 0.01 to 5%

-(CH2)n-C-N-R2-~ -R4 (VIII) R R

are present side by side in the s2me molecule. The anionic or cationic character predominates according to which of the two gr~ups has a greater DS.

The water-soluble cationic po]ysaccharides according to the invention are suitab]e for use as additives in hygienic and cosmetic cleansing and skin care products, as auxiliary agents for the manufacture of paper and for the treatment of textile fibres 15 to impro~e the handle thereof.

The water-so]uble cationic polysaccharides can also be used as aggregating agents.
Aggregation is understood to refer to flocculation, coagu]ation and precipitation.
Flocculating agents are processing auxiliaries which allow solid/liquid separation processes to be carried out in an economically efficient manner. With their aid it is 20 possible to improve considerably the rate of sedimentation of solids which are suspended in water and are frequently in colloidal form. Effective flocculating agents bring about almost complete flocculation of the suspended particles, thusresulting in substantial minimisation of the residual solids contents of the liquid phase. The use of flocculating agents also increases the solids content of the solid 25 phase, thus allowing mechanical dewatering of the sedimented slurries to be carried out in a technically and economically advanlageous manner.

Among flocculating agents a distinction must be made between primary flocculating agents and flocculation auxiliaries. Primary flocculating agents are chemical compounds which form precipitates which are poorly soluble in water. These 30 include the Fe, Al and Ca salts widely used in practice. When such compounds are added the charge of the particles in the suspension, which ha~e for the most part been stabilised by negali~le surface charges, is subsequently neutralised, as a result of wllich the electric double layer of the particles is destroyed and rapid coagulation occurs. As the h~drol~sis of Ihe inorganic compounds progresses water-satura~ed ~. - , . . . . . .

voluminous flocs a~e forrned ~ hich entrap the substances contained in Ihe water and cause them to precipita~e. Factors which have a disadvantageous effect on nocculalion using inexpensi~e inorganic metal salts are the dependence on temperalure of the fJocculation process, the requirement of a narrow pH range, the relatively low rate of sedimentation of the flocs and the formation of large volumes of slurry.

Floccu]ation auxi]iaries are cationic, anionic or neutral water-soluble polymers of high molecular weight, which do not display these disadvantages. Here as well, as a result of ionic and dipolar interactions between the polymers and the suspended particles, coagulation of the colloidal particles initially occurs. Where the molecular weights are sufficiently high the macromolecules are capable of linking several deslabilised particles to fomm rapidly sedimenting shear-resistant macroflocs.
Flocculation auxiliaAes are widely used industrially for water-conditioning and waste water treatment in the petroleum, paper, coal and ore industries as well as in some branches of the chemical industry.

The cationic polysaccharides produced according to the in~ention can advantageously be used in quantities of 0.01 - O.S~o by weight. They can be tailored for use in all fields of application according to their degree of cationisation and their molecular ~eight.

In many fields concemed with the production and storage of liquid and semi-solidproducts microorganisms present a problem as a result of their ability to multiply and their metabolism. Thus no methods are at present available for the removal of already fommed mycotoxins whule at the same time preser~ing the quality of the food concerned (H. K. Frank, SchAftenreihe des Bundes fur Lebensmit~elrecht und Lebensmittelkunde, Edition 76, 1974). The water-insoluble cationic polysaccharides produced according to the in~ention are used for the production of highly acti~e filter mateAals. For the abo~ementioned reasons these are in greatdemand in the pharmaceutical industry and the be~erage industry.

The mode of operation of filter beds is based mainly on - the mechanical screening effect, - the penetratioll effect and - the adsorplion effect.

:..

- ~ i 2Q3~3~

As a result of the mechanical screening effect coarse particles of sediment are retained on the surface of the bed. They do not penetrate into the pores. Finer particles of sediment penetrate more deeply into the bed, become entrapped in the net of material and gradually block the pores (penetration effect). Main]y as a result of the e]ectrical charges prevailing between the particles of sediment and the raw materials those sedimented substances which have penetrated into the bed areadsorbed onto the surfaces of the pores (adsorption effect). These effects are dependent on the material properties of the raw materials (kieselguhr, cellulose, cotton). The capacity of a filter bed is defined by its clarification efficiency. This is determined by the inleraction of screening, penetration and adsorption effects.
In bacterial filtration conventional filter beds disp]ay inadequate clarification efficiency due to a lack of adsorbing power.

Test filters in which a portion of the raw material cellulose was replaced by the cationic polysaccharides according to the invention were more highly effective against pyrogenic and endotoxic bacteria in bacterial filtration than fibre filters or filter beds filled with aluminium oxide.

Table 4 shows that the derivatised cellulose derivatives according to the invention produce significantly more rapid sedimentation of china clay than the commercial product, Polymer IR 125. The superiority of the new cellulose derivatives prevails even when the amount of active substance contained therein (Example 19, DS 0.25) is less than in the comparison substance. When the DS rises to 0.6, the improved effect is very mar~ed. It is surprisingly found that the basic product from Example 9 which is not quaternised also serves as excellent flocculating agent.
