Abstract
A foamable composition comprising: a) at least one anionic surfactant chosen from a salt of an alkyl sulfate and a salt of an alkyl ether sulfate in an amount of about 0.01 to about 1% by weight of the composition; b) at least one glycol ether in an amount of about 0.1 to about 1.5% by weight of the composition; c) at least one alcohol in an amount of about 2 to about 6% by weight of the composition; and d) water. Also, a foamable composition comprising: a) at least one anionic surfactant chosen from a salt of an alkyl sulfate and a salt of an alkyl ether sulfate; b) at least one glycol ether; c) at least one alcohol; and d) water, wherein the composition has a run down time of greater than about 15 seconds on a vertical glass surface across a distance of 10 cm.
Description
TITLE OF THE INVENTION
FOAMING HARD SURFACE CLEANER
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0001] Hard surface cleaners are usually mostly water that include cleaning materials, fragrance, and color. Hard Surface cleaners are usually sprayed onto a surface and then wiped to clean the surface. Because hard surface cleaners are mostly water, they will drip when applied to vertical surfaces because of gravity.
FOAMING HARD SURFACE CLEANER
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0001] Hard surface cleaners are usually mostly water that include cleaning materials, fragrance, and color. Hard Surface cleaners are usually sprayed onto a surface and then wiped to clean the surface. Because hard surface cleaners are mostly water, they will drip when applied to vertical surfaces because of gravity.
[0002] This requires a person to quickly wipe the surface before the hard surface cleaner drips down the surface to be cleaned. The dripping of the hard surface cleaner does not allow for a longer residence time of the hard surface cleaner on the surface to effect more cleaning. It would be desirable to have a hard surface cleaner that could remain in place when applied to a surface.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF INVENTION
BRIEF SUMMARY OF INVENTION
[0003] A foamable composition comprising:
a) at least one anionic surfactant chosen from a salt of an alkyl sulfate and a salt of an alkyl ether sulfate in an amount of about 0.01 to about 1% by weight of the composition;
b) at least one glycol ether in an amount of about 0.1 to about 1.5 % by weight of the composition;
c) at least one alcohol in an amount of about 2 to about 6% by weight of the composition; and d) water.
a) at least one anionic surfactant chosen from a salt of an alkyl sulfate and a salt of an alkyl ether sulfate in an amount of about 0.01 to about 1% by weight of the composition;
b) at least one glycol ether in an amount of about 0.1 to about 1.5 % by weight of the composition;
c) at least one alcohol in an amount of about 2 to about 6% by weight of the composition; and d) water.
[0004] A foamable composition comprising:
a) at least one anionic surfactant chosen from a salt of an alkyl sulfate and a salt of an alkyl ether sulfate;
b) at least one glycol ether; and c) at least one alcohol; and d) water, wherein the composition has a run down time of greater than about 15 seconds, wherein the run down time is measured by providing a vertical glass surface, which is perpendicular to the earth's surface, with a first horizontal line that is 10 cm above a second horizontal line and both are parallel to the earth's surface, applying the composition to the vertical glass surface at the first horizontal line from a distance of 20 cm perpendicular to the surface, and measuring the time for the composition to run down from the first horizontal line to the second horizontal line.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF INVENTION
a) at least one anionic surfactant chosen from a salt of an alkyl sulfate and a salt of an alkyl ether sulfate;
b) at least one glycol ether; and c) at least one alcohol; and d) water, wherein the composition has a run down time of greater than about 15 seconds, wherein the run down time is measured by providing a vertical glass surface, which is perpendicular to the earth's surface, with a first horizontal line that is 10 cm above a second horizontal line and both are parallel to the earth's surface, applying the composition to the vertical glass surface at the first horizontal line from a distance of 20 cm perpendicular to the surface, and measuring the time for the composition to run down from the first horizontal line to the second horizontal line.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF INVENTION
[0005] As used throughout, ranges are used as a shorthand for describing each and every value that is within the range. Any value within the range can be selected as the terminus of the range.
[0006] All references to amounts in this specification are by active weight of the material in the total composition. The active weight of a material is the actual amount of the material not including other materials, such as water, in the form in which it is supplied.
[0007] As used throughout, the counter ion for the salt of a surfactant can be a metal ion, an ammonium ion, or an amine. Metal cations that can be used include, but are not limited to, alkali metal ions and alkaline earth ions. In some embodiments, the metal cation ion can be lithium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, or calcium. In some embodiments, the amine is triethanolamine.
[0008] The foaming composition includes at least one anionic surfactant chosen from a salt of an alkyl sulfate surfactant and a salt of an alkyl ether sulfate surfactant. In one embodiment, the surfactant is present in the composition in an amount of about 0.1 to about 1% by weight.
[0009] prises a triethanolamine alkyl In one embodiment, the surfactant comprises sulfate. In one embodiment, the alkyl is a C10 to C14 alkyl. In another embodiment the surfactant comprises a triethanolamine lauiyl sulfate. In one embodiment, the ti~ieEhanolarnine alkyl sulfate is present in an amount'of about'0.1 to about 0.3% by weight, and in another embodiment in an amount of about 0.18 to about 0.22% by weight.
[0010] In another embodiment, the surfactant comprises the salt of an alkyl ether sulfate. In one embodiment, the alkyl is a C10 to C14. In one embodiment the surfactant is a sodium lauryl ether sulfate. In one embodiment, there is an average of about 1 to about 10 moles of ethylene oxide per mole. In another embodiment, there is an average of about 2 to about 3 moles of ethylene oxide per mole. In one embodiment, the sodium lauryl ether sulfate is present in an amount of about 0.05 to about 0.2% by weight, and in another embodiment at 0.06 to about 0.08% by weight.
[0011] In addition to the anionic surfactant, the foaming composition can include an amine oxide surfactant. Amine oxide semi-polar nonionic surfactants can comprise compounds and mixtures of compounds having the formula:
Rl(C2H4O)n N30-O
wherein R1 is an alkyl, 2-hydroxyalkyl, 3-hydroxyalkyl, or 3-alkoxy-2-hydroxypropyl radical in which the alkyl and alkoxy, respectively, contain from 8 to 18 carbon atoms, R2 and R3 are each methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, 2-hydroxyethyl, 2-hydroxypropyl, or 3-hydroxypropyl, and n is from 0 to 10. Particularly preferred are amine oxides of the formula:
R
wherein R1 is a C12-16 alkyl and R2 and R3 are methyl or ethyl. Examples of the above ethylene oxide condensates, amides, and amine oxides are described in U.S.
Pat. No.
4,316,824. In one embodiment the arnine oxides comprise alkyl amine oxides and/or cocoamidopropyl amine oxide. In one embodiment, the ratio of anionic surfactant to.
