Abstract

A composition includes a complex of cyclodextrin with isothiazolinone in a water-soluble dust-proof casing. This composition is useful as a preservative in aqueous systems.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention The invention relates to a composition comprising a complex of cyclodextrin (CD) with isothiazolinone in a water-soluble casing, and its use as a preservative.
2. The Prior Art Due to microbes, products having an aqueous phase may have a tendency to produce odors, to discolorl to form gases or to change their consistency. By using preservatives, these undesirable influences can be prevented, slowed down or reduced.

Isothiazolinones are known effective preservatives.
They are commercially available as aqueous solutions and formulations in various concentrations, for example under the brand name Kathon~ of Rohm and Haas. A mixture of 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one and 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one in the ratio of 3:1 is commercially available, for examplel as Kathon~ CG as a 1.5% strength solution or as a 14% strength solution (Kathon~ LX).

-~ Isothiazolinones have many uses. For example, they are useful for the preservation of water-containing products and for the treatment of water in recirculating systems, such as cooling towers.

Cyclodextrins are cyclic oligosaccharides constructed from 6, 7 or 8 ~ 4)-linked anhydroglucose units. The ~
or y-cyclodextrins, which are prepared by enzymatic conversion of starch, differ in the diameter of their hydrophobic cavity and are generally suitable for the inclusion of a large number of lipophilic substances.

Complexes of cyclodextrins with isothiazolinones are known from the literature. Thus, CA: lO0: 156595 describes a ~-cyclodextrin complex of the sparingly soluble biocide 2-N-octyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one.

DE 43 13 408 describes an improved water solubility for biocides having a maximum solubility of 0.15 g/l in water by inclusion into cyclodextrins. The use of these biocides for the preservation of aqueous systems is also demonstrated.
However, the actual biocide concentrations obtained are not disclosed.

The complexation of isothiazolinones with ~-CD is known from CA:120:71552p. A reduced irritation of the skin was found for the complex of 4,5-dichloro-2-N-octyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one with ~-CD. The preparation of a solid complex of ~-cyclodextrin with 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one and 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one and its use as a bactericide, fungicide and agent for controlling slime is described.
Disadvantages of the disclosed solid complex are the possible formation of dust and the resulting exposure of skin and lungs to the toxic and caustic active compound.

US Patent No. 5,559,083 discloses a mixture of isothiazolinones and branched cyclodextrins ("branched CDs") for stabilizing the active compound in aqueous solution. A
disadvantage of the disclosed liquid formulation is the risk of spilling or spattering of the active compound concentrate.
Furthermore, a certain volume has to be measured for each application.

However, there is a serious risk of contaminating people due to improper use of these prior art formulations.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

It is an object of the invention to provide a solid, dust-free formulation of isothiazolinones which can be easily measured and simply applied and which, therefore, does not create any risk to people.

The above object is achieved by a composition comprising a complex of cyclodextrin with isothiazolinone in a water-soluble dust-proof casing.

The isothiazoli.none is preferably selected from the group consisting of 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one, 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one and the mixtures thereof.

In the isothiazolinone/cyclodextrin complex, the composition according to the invention preferably contains 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one in an amount from 2% to 10%, by weight, and particularly preferably from 6% to 10%, by weight, based on the total weight of the complex.

In the isothiazolinone/cyclodextrin complex, the composition according to the invention preferably contains 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one in an amount from 0.1% to 3%, by weight, and particularly preferably from 0.5% to 1.5%, by weight, based on the total weight of the complex.

In the isothiazolinone/cyclodextrin complex, the composition according to the invention preferably contains a cyclodextrin selected from the group consisting of ~-CD, ~-CD
and the mixtures thereof. ~-CD is particularly preferred.

The isothiazolinone/cyclodextrin complexes which are present in the composition according to the invention are, if ~-cyclodextrin is used, prepared by a known process, for example in CA:120:71552p. However, the preparation can also be carried out as described, for example, in Example 1 of the present application. Corresponding complexes of isothiazolinone with y-CD can be prepared as described, for example, in Example 3 of the present application.

The isothiazolinone in the composition according to the invention is preferably a mixture of 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one and 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one.

~ -CD, ~-CD or the mixtures thereof are particularly suitable for preparing the isothiazolinone/cyclodextrin complexes which are present in the composition according to the invention. ~-CD is especially preferred.

The water-soluble dust-proof casing comprises any dust-proof water-soluble materials. Preferred are casings or bags made of a film of water-soluble material or gelatin capsules. Particularly preferred are casings or bags made of a film of water-soluble polyvinyl alcohol.

The complex of isothiazolinones and cyclodextrins is preferably packaged in a water-soluble dust-proof casing in an effective amount required for the particular application.
Also, the complex may be packaged in an amount which simplifies the measurement of the composition of the invention. Packaging is carried out so that the isothiazolinone/cyclodextrin complex cannot escape from the sealed undamaged package.

Thus, the invention also relates to a process for preparing the composition of the invention, which comprises packaging an isothiazolinone/cyclodextrin complex prepared in a manner known per se in a defined amount in a water-soluble dust-proof casing.

Prior to packaging in a water-soluble dust-proof casing, the cyclodextrin complexes can, if required, be sieved, classified pneumatically, ground, tabletted, granulated or compacted in a known manner.

The composition of the invention is preferably used as a preservative. The invention, therefore, also relates to the use of the composition of the invention as a preservative and to preservatives containing the composition of the invention.

The composition of the invention can be used, for example, for the preservation of paints, coatings, adhesives, aqueous emulsions or dispersions, cooling lubricants, aqueous wash and cleaning baths, coagulation baths for coatings, cooling water, cosmetic products, water in air conditioning systems or for controlling slime in water recirculation systems in the paper and pulp industry. Hence, the composition of the invention is added to the material to be preserved. The invention, therefore, also relates to a method for preserving products having an aqueous phase, which comprises adding an effective preservative amount of a composition of the invention to the particular product having the aqueous phase.

An effective preservative amount of the complex or of the composition will produce an amount of the active ingredient isothiazolinone dissolved in the aqueous phase ranging from 15 to 30 ppm, and preferably from 18 to 29 ppm.

Other objects and features of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description considered in connection with the Examples which discloses several embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood, however, that the Examples are designed for the purpose of illustration only and not as a definition of the limits of the invention.
