Description

~WO 95135255 P~~

r -- ~ c~ ~;,,r Technical Field The present invention relates to bleaching co",r ,~. The CulllpoaiLiulla 1S of the present invention are particularly useful for laundry bleaching.

Backaround Cu,,,~.ositiù,)s for the bleaching of laundry have been e,~tar,~;,/aly describedin the art. Bleaching cu..,~-osit;ons can be classified into peroxide bleaching Cullll~u~itiulla and hy~o~,lllul bleaching ~ u~ a. Peroxide bleaching cu",r- ,:. have the advantage over l.~poullluli bleaching Co~ usitiùl)s 2s that they are generally con ,ida,ed as being somewhat safer to fabrics, -r~' ~ ~Iy to colored fabrics. Peroxide c~ ns however have the inconveniency that they are often ul, 'Iy unstable, which makes it difficult to formulate peroxide bleaching Culll,~u~itiw~S which are sufficiently stable tobe COIlllllel~ ' ' A possible solution to this problem consists in 30 formulating cu" I,uOaitiOl)S with a high level of peroxide, to extend the "effective" period of the cu,,,, ~. A possible drawback of this solution is that cc"",osiliu"s may reach the user which still comprise a high amount of peroxide, whereby possible skin itching may occur if the user's skin comes in contact with the peroxide ~~ osilion. This itching phe,,u,,,el)ol) is quite 3s moderate and fully reversible, but is does constitute potential di;,~,o~rult for tha user.

WO95135255 r~"-J~ s 21 ~1571 Also, peroxide species are poorly effective in bleaching at lower temperatures, so that it is required to formulate activated peroxide bleaching cu~ uosiliulls for use auoss a wider range of temperatures. Activated bleaching cu~ ositiùns comprise a bleach activator, typically a peracid s precursor, which will react in an aqueous medium with hydrogen peroxide to form the coll~a~ùlldi~lg peracid. This peracid is more effective at lower temperatures.

It is thus an object of the present invention to formulate a peroxide bleaching 10 ~ ' ol, which is stable, without having to resort to usins higher amounts of peroxide, and which can be activated in a stable manner.

It is also an object of the present invention to formulate a bleaching co,,,,uosiliul~ with superior bleaching pt:rru""c-"ce.

In response we have now found that this objed can be met by formulating an aqueous emulsion of nonionic surfactants, in which benzoyl peroxide is in~ u~ ,uul ~t 'J 8enzoyl peroxide may constitute the bleaching peroxide specie alone, as it hydrolyzes in aqueous medium in ne~ ~' ,JIJ. " '~ ,e pH so 20 as to generate a peracid. But in a preferred u..~uudi..,t,,,l of the present invention, a ~" ,~u ,itiùn is formulated which comprises hydrogen peroxide in one phase of the emulsion and benzoyl peroxide in the other phase of the emulsion.

25 Bleaching .,u,,,~..u ,itiùns formulated as emulsions have been disclosed in EP
598 170. The cullr "' )s in ~170 are emulsions cul~ ill9 hydrogen peroxide in one phase and a hJdlulJhuLi~. liquid ingredient in the other phase. This hyd~u,ullùbic liquid ingredient can be a peracid precursor.

Summarv of the invention The present invention is an aqueous bleaching UU~,Uo~itiUIl in the form of an 35 emulsion cu~ ill9 a hydrophilic nonionic surfactant and a hydlu,ullouic nonionic surfactant, said emulsion further colll~JIiaill9 an effective amount ofbenzoyl peroxide.

W0 95/35255 I ~ . .'C

Detailed des4, iL~lion of the invention The cu~ o~iliolls according to the present invention are stable aqueous s emulsions of nonionic surfactants. By stable emulsion it is meant an emulsion w'nich does not ",au~s :p;- 'Iy separate into distinct layers, upon standing for at least two weeks at 20 ~C, more preferably at least six months.
As used herein, the term emulsion refers to emulsions which are obtained when smaller amounts of benzoyl peroxide are used, so that it is ~",~ .t~,ly 10 soluble in the h~dlu~ huLic nonionic surfactant, as well as suspen:lions which are obtained when the level of Benzoyl peroxide is inueased to the point where part of it is not dissolved in the hydlu~ uLic nonionic surfactant, and agyl . _ ' s of Benzoyl Peroxide are formed in the aqueous phase.

The colll~Juailiùlla according to the present invention are aqueous.
Ac~u~di~ly'y, the COIll~uai~iuil5 according to the present invention comprise from 10~h to 95~h by weight of the total co,,,~,u~itiun of water, preferably from 30~h to 90~h, most ~ f~dLly from 60~h to 85~h. Deionized water is 2n preferably used.

The cu~ uùsi~iùns according to the present invention are emulsions of nonionic surfactants. Said emulsions of nonionic surfactants comprise at least two nonionic surfactants. In order to form emulsions which are stable, 2s said two nonionic surfac~ants must have different HLB values (hydluiJh"
lipophilic balance), and preferably the difference in value of the HLBs of said two surfactants is at least 1, more preferably at least 3. By d~J~Iupri ' 'y co"lL,i"i,ly at least two of said nonionic surfactants with different HLBs in water, emulsions according to the present invention will be formed.
One of said nonionic surfactants used herein is a nonionic surfactant with an ,,~ HLB above 11 (herein referred to as hydrophilic nonionic surfactant), whereas the other one is a nonionic surfactant with an HLB below 10 (herein referred to as hyd~ ulJhoLic nonionic surfactant). Preferably, the 3s cun~lll~dtion ratio between hydrophilic and h~ldluplluLi~, surfactants shouldbe chosen in such a way that the weighted average of their HLB is of from 9 to 11. The weighted average HLB is defined as:

woss/3s2ss 2 1 9 1 57 1 P ~

(C/o of hydrophilic x HLB of hydrophilic) + (~/0 of hyd,ul,hubic x HLB of hydl u,uhuLicj where:

~fOofhydlu~ = [hydrophilic]/total[hydrophilic-I I Iy~lU~ Ul;~iC], ~fO of hydlu,uhubic = [hydlu~hubic] / total [hydrophilic + hydlu,uhùbic], and % of hydrophilic + ~fO hydlu~J hdbiC = 1.

10 By [hylluui,' ~ and [I;ydlu~llûbi~,] we mean the weight ~/0 con~,,t,d~iunl based on the total formula, of the hJdlu~ and hydlupl)ùbic surfactants, ~ ,.euli~oly. In addition to the above two surfactants, the cù~ usilions according to the present invention may comprise any other nonionic surfactants, but preferably the weighted average HLB, calculated with the lS additional surfactants, still falls in the specified range.

Suitable nonionic surfactants for use herein include ~" yldtud fatty alcohols. Indeed, a great variety of such alkoxylated fatty alcohols are w"""e" "y available which have very different HLB values (hydrophilic 20 lipophilic balance). The HLB values of such lh .,' ' ' nonionic surfactants depend esse "~ "y on the nature of the " ,1~';JI I and the degree of .yldtiu, ,. Hydrophilic nonionic surfactants tend to have a higher degree of alkoxylation, while h~dlu~Jhobic surfactants tend to have a lower degree of 'h .yl~lion and a long chain fatty alcohol. Surfactants c~~'ogu~s are 25 available v,/hich list a number ûf surfactants including noniûniCS, tûgether with their rt::",ec~hro HLB values.

The wlll~Josi~iùna according to the present invention comprise from 2~~6 to 70~h by weight of the total cu",,uosiliu" of said hydrophilic and h~dlu~hoL~k, 30 nonionic surfactants, preferably from 3% to 4û~h, most preferably from 4~,6 to 3û%

As an essential ingredient, the co,,,,uosilions according to the present invention further comprise an effective amount of benzoyl peroxide in the 3s hyd~u,uhubi~, phase. By effective amount, it is meant herein an amount sufflcient for the bleaching of fabrics. According to the present invention, benzoyl peroxide can be used with or without hydrogen peroxide. When it is _ _ _ _ _ .. _ . . . .. . . _ _ . . _ ..

WO 95135_55 r~ 7~7 5 5 ~ 1 used without hydrogen peroxide, it simply hydrolyzes in neutral/alkaline medium, i.e. in the bleaching liquor fommed by diluting the w~ uaiLion, of the present invention in water, so as to form peroxybenzoate which is the bleaching specie. Ar,w,di,,yly, when benzoyl peroxide is used alone, the s w",po:,itions herein comprise from 1 ~h to 20 ~h by weight of the total w~uo~ iun, preferably from 2 ~h to 10 ~h by weight.

As an " , lali ~c, benzoyl peroxide can be used herein together with hydrogen peroxide. Both i"yl.' ~t~ are prevented from reacting in the 10 wlll,uu:~;tiùn, as hydrogen peroxide is i~lW~U~ ' ' in the hydrophilic phase,while benzoyl peroxide is i,,w,~ u, ' ' in the hydlu~lluL.ic phase. Thus both illylt~di~,"t~ are kept separate until the w",~,osi~iùn is diluted in an aqueousmedium for use. Upon dilution, the emulsion stnucture is nuptured, and benzoyl peroxide is perhydrolyzed by hydrogen peroxide so as to fomm 15 peroxybenzoate. In this scenario, two moles of p~luAyb~ ' are fommed per mole of benzoyl peroxide, whereas in the previously described scenario, only one mole of pel u,~"L~I ,_ ' was fommed per mole of benzoyl peroxide.

20 Acwldi,l5~1y, when the ~ oc~ ns herein are formulated with hydrogen peroxide, they should comprise from 1 ~h to 10 ~h by weight of the total w"",ositiu" of hydrogen peroxide, preferably from 2 ~h to 4 ~h, and from 1~h to 20~h by weight of the total w,,,~u,itiu,, of benzoyl paroxide, preferably from 1 ~h to 10~h. Of course, instead of hydrogen peroxide itself, one may 25 use sources of hydrogen peroxide. Suitable sources of hydrogen peroxide for use herein include pel w, bùrld~t s, pt:, L,u, s, persulfates and the like.

We have observed that the pH of the ~f ".,l ~o~ ,s herein plays a role in the 30 chemical stability of the cu",~,o~itiùn. Acculdi.l~ly, the w",,uo~itiù,)s herein are ,ul~i".,dLly formulated at a pH of from 1 to 6, preferably 2 to 5. A varietyof suitable means can be used for adjusting the pH of the WlllpO ,itions, including organic or inorganic acids, " wld",i.,es and the like. It may be advantageous to use -lh ,old".;.,es, in particular ,,.unot,ll,a,)ola,..;.,e, 3s inasmuch as they have an additional effect of regulating the viscosity of the emulsion, without .,o..,~,u,..;~.. ,9 on its physical stability.

The uo,,,~,o~iGù,-s herein may comprise a variety of optional illylt:dit:llLa A
preferred optional feature of the cu,,,~,o,iliu,,s herein is the presence of radical scavengers, which are beneficial to the stability of the uU~l~,vosii;u~sherein. Suitable radical scavengers for use herein include the well-known s s~ ~h5tit~ mono and di hydroxy benzenes and their analogs, alkyl and aryl Udll/UAy' ' , and mixtures thereof. Preferred radical scavengers for use herein include butyl hydroxy toluene, mono-tert-butyl hydroquinone, benzoic acid, toluic acid, t-butyl catechol, be" yl_."i"e, 1,1,3-tris(2-methyl4-hydroxy-5-t-butylphenyl) butane, CO~ vl ~ 'Iy available under the trade name c Topanol CA ~3 ex ICI, as well as n-propylyallate. Radical s.~.le.-ye,a, when used, are typically present herein in amounts ranging from 0.01 ~/0 to 2 % by weight of the total COlllpG_ ~;on, preferably 0.01 ~/0 to 0.2 ~h.

It may also be useful to formulate chelants herein, which may further improve 15 the chemical stability of the co,.~pv~iliuns herein. Typical chelants useful herein include ~ho~,uhûn ' , ethylene diamine dissuccinic acid, dipicolinic acid and diethylene triamine penta acetate and the like. Suitable levels for chelants herein are ~ liaed between 0.01~~6 and 5~~0 by weight of the total CUlll,UUaitiUll. An increase in chemical stability could ba observed by a 20 synergistic action of both the previous illylud;e~l~a~ radical scavengers and chelants, combined together.

The wll,,uoai~ions herein may further comprise other optionals, including anionic and cationic surfactants, to be formulated in the hydrophilic phase 25 herein, other bleach activators to be used in mixture with benzoyl peroxide, such as acetyl triethyl citrate, builders and chelants, as well as aesthetics, including dyes and perfumes and the like.

The culllyoaitiùns according to the present invention are particularly useful 30 as laundry bleaches, including as ~ t~vdlc:la, i.e colllpua;;iuns which are dispensed and lefl to act onto fabrics before they are washed. Cu~lluuSiliOIla herein can be formulated as laundry additives to be used before or together with ~ .yell~a in an aqueous medium to boost their p~lrulllldllce, or as detergent cu""~osiliu"s per se. Culllpoa;liùn-s herein can also be used as 3s automatic or hand di~l, . ',;.,9 uu~ Joailiul~s, as hard surface cleaners, as denture cleansers, or as carpet cleaners.
