Description

Produce the method for low density detergent composition by non-tower process
Invention field
The present invention relates to a kind of method of producing low density detergent composition by non-tower process.More particularly, the present invention relates to a kind of continuous production method, in the production process of this method, produce detergent agglomerate by adding tensio-active agent and coating in a series of mixing tanks.Method of the present invention can be produced free-pouring detergent composition, and its density can be in the regulated in wider range of consumer wants, and described product can carry out market sale.
Background of invention
In recent years, the product that receives much concern in the cloth-washing detergent industry is the concentrated type product with low dosage volume.For these so-called low dosage washing composition of favourable production, people have carried out multiple trial to produce the higher washing composition of volume density, and for example, density is 600g/l or higher.Because this low dosage washing composition can be saved resource and small packages form that can more convenient human consumer is sold, thereby its demand is increased day by day.Yet in fact, modern Betengent product answers " concentrating " to which kind of degree on earth, is still uncertain.In fact, many human consumers', particularly developing country human consumer still is a preference employing high dosage in each laundry operations.By the currently known methods of agglomeration process production modern detergent compositions, promptly the universals of Fei Tafa are, prepare its particulate apparent density through this method and are not less than 600g/l usually.Like this, the whole density that still need in agglomeration technique (as Fei Tafa), produce final composition have the modern washing composition, particularly low density detergent composition of certain handiness (as, density range is about 300-600g/l).
In general, the method for preparing washing agent particle or powder mainly comprises three types.First method relates in spray-drying tower carries out spraying drying to the aqueous detergent slurries, produces porous detergent particles (the tower method that for example, is used for low density detergent composition).Second method is included in the spray-drying tower carries out spray-dired step as first step to the aqueous detergent slurries, then, with particle and a kind of tackiness agent agglomeration such as nonionogenic tenside or anion surfactant that forms, at last, various detergent components are done mixed, produce detergent particles (for example, the tower method adds agglomeration technique, is used for high density detergent composition).In the third method, various detergent components do are mixed, after this, make itself and tackiness agent agglomeration such as nonionogenic tenside or anion surfactant, produce high density detergent composition (as, be used for the agglomeration technique of high density detergent composition).In above-mentioned three kinds of methods, the important factor of the detergent particles that control forms is described coating of particles, porosity and size distribution, the density of various raw materials, the shape of various raw materials and they chemical constitution separately.
Attempt to provide the method that can increase detergent particles or powder density in this area always.Particularly make spray-dired particle densification by the tower post treatment method.For example, one of means relate to carries out batch production, wherein, and at Marumerizer In will comprise the spraying drying of tripoly phosphate sodium STPP and sodium sulfate or granulation detergent powder carry out densification and make ball-type.Described equipment comprises substantially horizontal, unsmooth and rotatable worktable, and this worktable is positioned at the housing of perpendicular and inner wall smooth.Yet,, be not suitable for the scale operation detergent powder because this method is a kind of periodical operation process.At last, people also attempt to provide the density of the detergent particles of a kind of continuation method to increase " behind the tower (post-tower) " or spraying drying and cross.Usually, these class methods need be pulverized or grind particulate first device and increase second of pulverizing back pellet density by agglomeration and install.Though these methods by handle or densification " behind the tower " or spraying drying after particle increased density, can not reach higher at the situation lower surface promoting agent activity level that does not apply subsequently, thereby be restricted.In addition, by " behind the tower " method handle or densification from considering economically and uneconomical (cost is very high), and production process complexity.And then all aforesaid methods all relate generally to and carry out densification or processing spray-dried granules.At present, there is quite a lot of dissimilar material in the washing composition production process, to be subject to spray-drying process.For example, in the detergent composition that forms, will be difficult to realize the tensio-active agent high-content, the high-content of tensio-active agent then is to impel the feature of producing washing composition in more effective mode.Therefore, still wish to find a kind of method that is not subjected to the production detergent composition of conventional spray drying technology restriction.
For this reason, also propose the various detergent composition that make in this area and carried out agglomerant method.For example, mix in mixing tank by making zeolite and/or layered silicate, and make the detergent builders agglomeration to form free-pouring agglomerate.Though this trial explanation, aforesaid method can be used for producing detergent agglomerate; But they do not provide a kind of mechanism, illustrate that pasty state, liquid and dry-matter shape detergent raw material are agglomerated into effectively has more low-density crisp, free-pouring detergent agglomerate.
Thereby, still need to seek a kind of agglomeration method (Fei Tafa) that is used for direct by detergent raw material continuous production low density detergent composition in this area, preferably its density can realize by regulating processing conditions.Equally, still wish to find a kind of more effective, have more adaptability and more economical method so that the scale operation washing composition, the final densities of washing composition final composition is answered the tool handiness.
