Description

CLEANING COMPOSITIONS INCLUDING ENZYMES
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present disclosure relates to cleaning compositions comprising a specific glycoside hydrolase enzyme. The present disclosure also relates to methods of making and using such cleaning compositions. The present disclosure also relates to the use of the glycoside hydrolase enzyme.
BACKGROUND
The detergent formulator is constantly aiming to improve the performance of detergent compositions. One particular challenge is the removal of certain soils of microbial origin from surfaces such as textiles. Such soils can be sticky and difficult to remove.
Furthermore, because they are sticky they tend to adhere body soils and/or particulate soils to the surface, making soil removal difficult and having a tendency to build up over time. This may be particularly noticeable for example on collars and cuffs where incomplete cleaning may occur.
There is a need for improved cleaning compositions which provide cleaning of such soils. The present inventors have found that this problem may be ameliorated by cleaning compositions comprising certain glycoside hydrolases. Glycosyl hydrolases are enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of the glycosyl bond to release smaller sugars. There are over 100 classes of glycosyl hydrolase and many different enzymes fall within the class of glycosyl hydrolases, for .. example cellulases and xyloglucanases which can be used in cleaning compositions. Surprisingly, certain specific glycosyl hydrolases can provide particularly improved cleaning.
Glycoside hydrolases are described by Coutinho, P.M. and Henrissat, B., 1999, Carbohydrate-active enzymes: an integrated database approach, in "Recent Advances In Carbohydrate Bioengineering", H.J. Gilbert, G. Davies, B. Henrissat and B.

When in the form of a liquid, the compositions of the invention may be aqueous (typically above 2 wt% or even above 5 or 10 wt% total water, up to 90 or up to 80wt% or 70 wt% total water) or non-aqueous (typically below 2 wt% total water content).

28 liquid optional ingredients. Such a solution, dispersion or suspension will be acceptably phase stable. When in the form of a liquid, the detergents of the invention preferably have viscosity from 1 to 1500 centipoises (1-1500 mPa*s), more preferably from 100 to 1000 centipoises (100-1000 mPa*s), and most preferably from 200 to 500 centipoises (200-500 mPa*s) at 20s-1 and 21 C. Viscosity can be determined by conventional methods. Viscosity may be measured using an AR 550 rheometer from TA instruments using a plate steel spindle at 40 mm diameter and a gap size of 500 vim. The high shear viscosity at 20s-1 and low shear viscosity at 0.05-1 can be obtained from a logarithmic shear rate sweep from 0.1-1 to 25-1 in 3 minutes time at 21C. The preferred rheology described therein may be achieved using internal existing structuring with detergent ingredients or by employing an external rheology modifier. More preferably the detergents, such as detergent liquid compositions have a high shear rate viscosity of from about 100 centipoise to 1500 centipoise, more preferably from 100 to 1000 cps.

Hand dishwashing compositions have high shear rate viscosity of from 300 to 4000 cps, more preferably 300 to 1000 cps.
The cleaning and/or treatment compositions in the form of a liquid herein can be prepared by combining the components thereof in any convenient order and by mixing, e.g., agitating, the resulting component combination to form a phase stable liquid detergent composition. In a process for preparing such compositions, a liquid matrix is formed containing at least a major proportion, or even substantially all, of the liquid components, e.g., nonionic surfactant, the non-surface active liquid carriers and other optional liquid components, with the liquid components being thoroughly admixed by imparting shear agitation to this liquid combination. For example, rapid stirring with a mechanical stirrer may usefully be employed. While shear agitation is maintained, substantially all of any anionic surfactants and the solid form ingredients can be added.
Agitation of the mixture is continued, and if necessary, can be increased at this point to form a solution or a uniform dispersion of insoluble solid phase particulates within the liquid phase.
After some or all of the solid-form materials have been added to this agitated mixture, particles of any enzyme material to .. be included, e.g., enzyme granulates, are incorporated. As a variation of the composition preparation procedure hereinbefore described, one or more of the solid components may be added to the agitated mixture as a solution or slurry of particles premixed with a minor portion of one or more of the liquid components. After addition of all of the composition components, agitation of Date Recue/Date Received 2020-11-13

29 the mixture is continued for a period of time sufficient to form compositions having the requisite viscosity and phase stability characteristics. Frequently this will involve agitation for a period of from about 30 to 60 minutes.
The adjunct ingredients in the compositions of this invention may be incorporated into the composition as the product of the synthesis generating such components, either with or without an intermediate purification step. Where there is no purification step, commonly the mixture used will comprise the desired component or mixtures thereof (and percentages given herein relate to the weight percent of the component itself unless otherwise specified) and in addition unreacted starting materials and impurities formed from side reactions and/or incomplete reaction. For example, for an ethoxylated or substituted component, the mixture will likely comprise different degrees of ethoxylation/substitution.
