Abstract

The purpose of the present invention is to create particulate detergents or compounds or treated raw materials which have a spherical shape (bead shape) and exhibit improved disintegration properties upon dissolution in an aqueous bath even when they have a reduced surface area. The method of the present invention is economical and allows for the suppression of costly drying steps. To this end, the complex particulate detergents or mixtures or the treated raw materials have an apparent density of more than 600 g/l and are prepared by assembling detergent compounds and/or raw materials with simultaneous or subsequent forming. This method first comprises preparing a premix containing individual raw materials and/or compounds in a solid phase at room temperature and under a pressure of 1 bar. The premix is then converted into granules by compacting forces and optionally retreated, said premix being essentially an anhydrous one. This method further includes using a liquid forming builder under forming conditions, particularly also at room temperature and under a pressure of 1 bar, wherein said builder consists of polymer swollen in a non-aqueous solution.

Description

The preparation method of granulated detergent or clean-out system
The present invention relates to prepare the method for granulated detergent or clean-out system or multicomponent component by means of fit closely prilling process, and the washing composition or the clean-out system of preparation thus.Described multicomponent component and other composition mix to divide and constitute described washing composition or clean-out system.
For a long time, there has been bulk density to be higher than granulated detergent or the clean-out system of 600g/l in the prior art.In recent years, be accompanied by the increase of bulk density, concentrating of detergent active composition and cleaning active composition occur, make that the volume of human consumer's required washing composition that is metered in each washing or cleaning process is littler, and quality also still less.The raising of laundry active or cleaning active material concentration in the raising of bulk density, especially washing composition or the clean-out system from human consumer's angle, is a cost with solubleness variation (reason is that the dissolution rate of employed washing composition is slack-off) normally.This undesirable delay dissolving is easy to form due to the gel phase when especially being dissolved in water by negatively charged ion commonly used in a series of reality and nonionogenic tenside and especially corresponding surfactant mixture.This gelation has produced when the content of tensio-active agent is 10 weight % (based on the washing composition total amount), that is to say, will produce gelation under the conventional surfactants content in washing composition or clean-out system.Rule of thumb, along with the particulate structure is fine and close more, the tendency of this formation gel is also big more.
EP 0 486 592B1 disclose particle or extruding washing composition or the clean-out system that a kind of bulk density is higher than 600g/l, and they contain at least 15 weight %, the negatively charged ion of about at the most 35 weight % and/or nonionogenic tenside.It can prepare as follows: solid-state, free flowable premixture is pressed into pencil under the high pressure of 25 to 200 crust, by means of cutting unit, bundle after will discharging from the porous stripper plate cut into predetermined granular size and rounding and make, and wherein said premixture contains the softening agent and/or the lubricant of tensio-active agent aqueous slurry preferably and/or aqueous solutions of polymers.Premixture to small part is made up of solid state component, mixes with the nonionogenic tenside that liquid parts for example at room temperature is in a liquid state in case of necessity.As mentioned above, in preferred embodiment, use aqueous compositions as softening agent and/or lubricant.But, also can use the higher organic liquid of boiling point, again they are mixed use with water in case of necessity.Yet, the processing condition in this patent unexposed anhydrous when extruding.Made extrudate or can be used as washing composition or clean-out system uses perhaps also can be then be processed to the washing composition or the clean-out system that can use with other granular or powdered components.Because particulate high compactness and relative high surfactant content, also owing to sphere or pearl (they are compared with the particle of routine, much smaller surface-area) that the human consumer liked, therefore, depend on the combination of selected tensio-active agent, above mentioned trouble may occur.
Known by International Patent Application WO-A-93/15180, the dissolution rate of this extruding washing composition can improve in the following manner, promptly uses the alkyl-sulphate of short chain in solid-state premixture, preferred C 8-to maximum C 16-alkyl-sulphate, and they are joined in the premixture in kind and the mode of determining.But, want to make in all cases the dissolution rate of all washing composition all to bring up to the degree of expection, so this measure just seems unable to do what one wishes.
German patent application DE 195 19 139A1 have recommended a kind of solution to improve individual particle on the one hand, especially the intensity of compression of extrudate, can use washing composition or clean-out system quick on request and still make on the other hand, gelation especially can not take place be not dissolved in the water lotion method of contradiction between the two, bulk density is higher than the negatively charged ion that contains at least 15 weight % of 600g/l and/or the granulated detergent or the clean-out system of nonionogenic tenside uses at least two kinds of different granular components, wherein at least a grain fraction is extruded, and another kind of not being extruded comprises the highest 15 weight % (based on various extruding component meters) that should be of content of tensio-active agent of the extruding component of soap class.Other surface active agent composition of washing composition of making or clean-out system then joins in the washing composition by the component that one or more are not extruded.Although this method has solved the problem that is easy to gelation in water lotion when the washing composition of high compactness and high surface agent content or clean-out system use, brought series of new problems again.The washing that promptly can occur decomposing and make every effort to accordingly reach or the reproducible fluctuation of cleaning performance.In addition, the detergent component through pushing is the density height not only, and dried extrudate is simultaneously also harder.Under the condition of transportation, storage and use, do not push the softer grain fraction of component and therefore bear mechanical force, the part particle is by wearing and tearing, and particle diameter diminishes, and meanwhile forms dust and fine particle.
According to a conventional method, both can use solid also can use washing composition or clean-out system composition liquid under the room temperature usually; Also the aqueous solution and/or dispersion liquid can be widely used as granulating assistant or as be used as softening agent and/or lubricant in EP 0 486592B1.The danger that this method exists is in preparing washing agent or clean-out system, has produced when dissolving in water lotion to promote the dissolved gel-like structure of delaying time again.In addition, the shortcoming that wherein water, the aqueous solution or aqueous dispersions is used as the method existence of granulating assistant especially is, in most of the cases, obtain free-pouring and the finished product stable storing, the dry aftertreatment that must waste energy, and, often to carry out necessary pulverizing and/or screening (referring to " through agglomeration and increased in size " (Size Enlargement by Agglomeration) to formed very thick agglomerate, W.Pietsch, John Wiley﹠amp; Sons, 1990, the 180 pages).Another shortcoming of this method is because the water that solid-state and water miscible component is passed through to be comprised particularly dissolves the pressure influence lower section when extruding, cause producing that particle increases and crystallization, this exerts an adverse impact to the solvability of the washing composition made again usually.
Heavy particulate one method of preparation is two step shottings in the presence of moisture granulating assistant; it wherein at first is the initial agglomerate that preparation still is plasticity in the mixing tank/pelletizer of routine; then such as nodulizer; the vane coating machine; in the device such as Marumerizer; with liquid adhesive and/or dust disposal, carry out drying subsequently usually.Granulation and the balling-up process of carrying out simultaneously for example can be carried out in being equipped with the fluid bed granulation device of rotating-disk.Here, solid-state starting raw material is fluidisation in fluidized-bed at first, join liquid adhesive in the fluidized-bed with the nozzle that points to through tangent line then and carry out agglomeration (referring to " through agglomeration and increased in size " (Size Enlargement byAgglomeration), W.Pietsch, John Wiley﹠amp; Sons, 1990, the 450 to 451 pages).In principle, this method also can be used for (fusion coating method) in the anhydrous process, and still, the advantage that can play the device of desiccation in this case simultaneously is not utilized.
At technical literature (referring to " through agglomeration and increased in size " (Size Enlargement byAgglomeration), W.Pietsch, John Wiley﹠amp; Sons, 1990, the 440-441 pages or leaves) in, two kinds of methods of under high pressure carrying out granulation are only disclosed, they can carry out under anhydrous situation fully.Described method is included in compressing tablet and roll compaction in the tabletting machine, in the method for in the end mentioning, can form compressing tablet usually, and when carrying out granulation subsequently, it is broken and the irregular product that forms.Based on this reason, in some systems, adopt so-called prebreaker, so that it is more even to carry out the shape of initial product of actual granulation or grinding steps.Then undesirable fine particle and/or coarse particles in the particle for preparing thus fallen in screening, is recycled in case of necessity in this process.
International Patent Application WO-A-93/02176 has described the solid-state washing composition with high bulk density or the preparation method of clean-out system, wherein the raw material of solid-state and liquid detergent or clean-out system is mixed and simultaneously or then carry out moulding, employed solids fraction is anion surfactant and washing assistant, liquid composition is a nonionogenic tenside, wherein nonionogenic tenside normally with structure deteriorate agent for example polyoxyethylene glycol or polypropylene glycol or have 20 to 45EO ethoxylation C 8-C 18-Fatty Alcohol(C12-C14 and C12-C18) intimate mixture form exists.Liquid non-ionic surfactant preferably ethoxylation straight chain or on 2, have the alcohol of methyl branch, its carbochain has 8 to 20 carbon atoms, every mol of alcohol on average has 1 to 15 moles of ethylene oxide.Except that above-mentioned structure deteriorate agent, in principle, water also is described to be suitable as the structure deteriorate agent, but, preferably not making water, this is because when washing composition is stored, because its inner dry washing composition meeting dehydration, therefore, by the utilization structure disrupting agent, do not reach or completely lose with the desired effects that improves dissolution rate.According to this international patent application, in all known granulating methods of mixture that uses separately preparation and/or raw material, can use the nonionogenic tenside that exists with solution or dispersion and the mixture of structure deteriorate agent.Also may even preferably in according to the described pressing method of International Patent Application WO-A-91/02047 (or European patent application EP 0 486 592B1), use.Correspondingly also the aqueous solution, slurry or aqueous dispersions are used in suggestion, and as mentioned above, water does not use as the structure deteriorate agent, usually after extruding, be dried evaporation and remove.This patent does not spell out dry extrusion process; Even in an embodiment, also additionally add the aqueous solution dividually with nonionogenic tenside-structure deteriorate agent composition; Especially, the processing condition that the document is not mentioned when pushing under anhydrous situation.
European patent application EP 0 337 330 has been described under the situation that adds non-ionic compound; by granulation in mixing tank; improve the method for spray-dried detergent bulk density; described non-ionic compound is ethoxylation and/or propenoxylated nonionogenic tenside; for example has the primary alconol or the secondary alcohol that have 2 to 20 moles of alkylene oxides in 8 to 20 carbon atoms and the every mol of alcohol; especially in mixing tank, use have 2 to 6EO and the HLB value 11 or following nonionogenic tenside, also can make spent glycol and propylene glycol as non-ionic compound.
In European patent application EP 0 711 828, described the preparation method of tablet, comprised the granulated product of compacting through parcel.Encapsulate substances is water-soluble binder or the disintegrating agent of melt temperature between 35 to 90 ℃.But the principal character of this method is that compression/compressing tablet is the temperature at least 28 ℃, and in all cases, is lower than that the tackiness agent melt temperature carries out.
By the known a kind of particulate preparation method of International Patent Application WO-A-96/10071 with at least 650 grams per liter bulk densities; its surfactant content is at least 40 weight %; wherein granulating is in having the mixing tank of high shear rate; next step is finished in the temperature of room temperature to 60 ℃; the particulate granularity of using as solid feed is 0.1 to 500 micron; wherein the particulate particle size of at least 15 weight % is greater than 50 microns; but also there is very little fine particle to exist, makes solid feed have extra high surface-area.What use as tackiness agent is that (its weight ratio is 2: 8-8: 2), and can contain the water of 20 weight % at the most, nonionogenic tenside is to have 3 to 7EO C for the surfactant mixture of anion surfactant and nonionogenic tenside 12-C 15Primary alconol.Particularly preferably be, in the scope of described method, surfactant mixture contains the water of 20 weight % at the most, because can improve the viscosity of mixture thus, is easy to CONTROL PROCESS.In addition, surfactant mixture also can contain polyoxyethylene glycol.
US Patent specification US 5 108 646 has described the preparation method of builder agglomerates, and wherein the tackiness agent of the silico-aluminate of 50 to 75 weight parts or crystalline layered silicate and 20 to 35 weight parts carries out agglomeration.Suitable binder mainly is full-bodied anion surfactant slurry, and they can contain the water of 90 weight % at the most.But also can use molecular weight is 1000 to 20000 polymkeric substance, and for example polyoxyethylene glycol can use these materials and conventional nonionogenic tenside equally, for example has 4 to 8EO C 9-C 16The mixture of alcohol, as long as their melt temperature is not less than 35 or 45 ℃, agglomeration is to carry out in what is called has the strong mixer of specific higher-energy input.When intake surpasses designated value, excessive agglomeration then takes place, form pasty material, when intake is lower than described amount, then can only obtain the extremely light agglomerate of fine powder or undesirable wide size-grade distribution.
In contrast, the objective of the invention is to prepare the method for a kind of granulated detergent or clean-out system or multicomponent component, described multicomponent component is mixed described washing composition of formation or clean-out system with other composition.They in addition when surface-area diminishes, especially when their (pearl shapes) spherical in shape, in the time of also being to dissolve in the water lotion, show the disintegrating property that improves.In addition, this method is economical, and need not to adopt expensive drying step.
Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide the preparation method that a kind of bulk density is higher than the granulated detergent of 600g/l or clean-out system or multicomponent component or treated raw material, described multicomponent component or treated raw material mix described washing composition of formation or clean-out system with other composition, wherein with washing composition or clean-out system mixture and/or raw material mixes and simultaneously or the shaping of then carrying out, wherein, at first prepare a kind of premixture, described premixture contains single raw material and/or mixture of planting, they exist with solid form under the pressure of room temperature and 1 crust, applying under the condition of force of compression subsequently, this premixture is made a kind of particle, and then further handle in case of necessity or process, it is characterized in that premixture is anhydrous basically, and use a kind of under molding condition, particularly room temperature and the shaping additive that under the pressure of 1 crust, is in a liquid state and exists with the polymer form of swelling in non-aqueous solution.
To this, within the scope of the invention, term " anhydrous basically " is meant liquid content, promptly is not to be respectively that the basis is below 2 weight % with the premixture in the liquid water that water of hydration and/or water of constitution form exist, preferably below 1 weight %, below 0.5 weight %.Therewith correspondingly, in the preparation process of premixture, water only can be introduced with chemistry and/or physical bond form or as the composition (but not being with liquid, solution or dispersion liquid) of raw material that exists with solid-state form under the pressure of temperature below 45 ℃ and 1 crust or mixture basically.Preferably, the total water content of premixture is no more than 15 weight %, neither exist with liquid free form at this this water, but exist with the form of chemistry and/or physical bond, particularly preferably be, in solid-state premixture, the water-content that is not attached on zeolite and/or the silicate is no more than 10 weight %, preferably be lower than 7 weight %, more preferably at most in 2 to 5 weight % scopes.
Within the scope of the invention, term " granulated detergent or clean-out system " preferably is meant there is not powdery particle, and especially granular size is less than the product of 200 micron particle.It is preferred that the particulate diameter of at least 90 weight % is at least 400 microns size distribution.In the particularly preferred embodiment of the present invention, made washing composition or clean-out system, mixture or treated raw material at least 70 weight %, preferred at least 80 weight %, more preferably reach 100 weight % and be by spherical (pearl) granulometric composition, and its particle size dispersion is that the grain diameter of at least 80 weight % is in the 0.8-2.0mm scope.In the scope of the invention, granular detergent or clean-out system also comprise the sheet body, and this sheet body has the stock size of household detergent or clean-out system, and for example weight is 15 to 40 grams, particularly 20 to 30 restrains, and diameter is about 35 to 40 millimeters.
The anhydrous swelling polymkeric substance that uses as shaping additive is those polymkeric substance that cause the gel state in anhydrous liq in the present invention.The specially suitable system that those are made up of anhydrous liq and polymkeric substance, at room temperature, in the presence of polymkeric substance, at least 20 times of this heights of viscosity ratio anhydrous liq of this system, particularly 300 to 5000 times.For example by means of the Brookfield rotational viscometer, at room temperature preferably 200 to 10000mPas, particularly 400 to 6000mPas for the viscosity of the composition that the shaping additive of mensuration promptly is made up of anhydrous liq and polymkeric substance.Under higher temperature, for example under 60 ℃, viscosity preferably with room temperature under viscosity number only different slightly, and preferably 250 to 2500mPas.Suitable liquid is that the boiling point that at room temperature is in a liquid state (under 1 crust) is above 80 ℃, particularly surpass 120 ℃ one, two or trivalent alcohol, for example n-propyl alcohol, Virahol, propyl carbinol, sec-butyl alcohol, isopropylcarbinol, ethylene glycol, 1,2-or 1, ammediol, glycerol, two-or three-ethylene glycol or-propylene glycol or its mixture, particularly glycerol and/or ethylene glycol, and the representative of the nonionogenic tenside of hereinafter mentioning that at room temperature is in a liquid state.Though known this class nonionogenic tenside has the tendency of gelation when contacting with water, when the non-aqueous solvent as the polymkeric substance in the shaping additive used in the present invention used, the finished product can not have viscosity.The polymkeric substance that produces the swelling system in this class anhydrous liq is multipolymer, polyvinyl alcohol, xanthane, starch, alginate, the amylopectin of partial hydrolysis, the starch that carries methyl ether, hydroxyethyl ether, hydroxypropyl ether and/or hydroxyl butyl ether group or the Mierocrystalline cellulose of polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyacrylic acid, vinylformic acid and toxilic acid, the starch such as the bisphosphate starch of phosphorylation, also can be inorganic polymer such as layered silicate (Schichtsilikate) and their mixture.Polyvinylpyrrolidone preferably those relative molecular weights is up to 30000, and especially the average molecular weight range is 3000 to 30000, those of for example about 10000.The preferred polymkeric substance that uses is hydroxypropylated starch and bisphosphate starch.The concentration of polymkeric substance 5 weight % to 20 weight % preferably in anhydrous liq, particularly about 6 weight % to 12 weight %.
Based on premixture to be compressed, the content of shaping additive preferably is 2 weight % at least, but is lower than 20 weight %, particularly is lower than 15 weight %, and particularly preferred content range is 3 weight % to 10 weight %.In further describing process of the present invention, for the sake of simplicity, shaping additive is represented with a kind of shaping additive or this shaping additive.Yet can use the mixture of multiple different types of shaping additive and differing formed auxiliary agent obviously.
" washing composition or clean-out system " be meant and they can be used for washing or clean, and need not mixing of common and other composition.Otherwise multicomponent mixture or mixture be meant by at least two kinds of one-tenth that usually use in washing composition or clean-out system and be grouped into, still, mixture usually only with other composition, preferably be mixed together use with other mixture." treated raw material " of the present invention is meant the raw material that particle is thinner, and they are transformed into than coarse particles by method of the present invention.Strictly speaking, in this article, when treatment agent was a kind of composition that usually uses in washing composition or clean-out system, treated raw material was a kind of mixture.
The composition of Shi Yonging is except the nonionogenic tenside that is in a liquid state under the pressure of temperature below 45 ℃ and 1 crust that exists if desired in the methods of the invention, can be powdery or granular (carefully to the coarse particles) mixture for preparing respectively, but also can be raw material, but, in all cases, under the pressure of room temperature and 1 crust, they are to exist with solid-state form.For instance, granular particle can be the pearl of spray-dried preparation or the agglomerate of prilling process etc.Except water-content, the composition of mixture is unimportant for the present invention, and water-content will limit so as mentioned above, makes premixture be substantially free of water, preferably contains the water of hydration and/or the water of constitution that are lower than 10 weight %.One preferred embodiment in, in premixture, use the mixture of overdrying.This mixture for example can prepare by spraying drying, and wherein temperature control should be regulated like this, makes the tower temperature out be higher than 100 ℃, for example 110 ℃ or more than.Can in premixture, use solid state composite equally, as liquid component, the carrier of liquid non-ionic surfactant or silicone oil and/or paraffin for example.These mixtures can contain the water of above-mentioned limited range, and wherein mixture is free-pouring, preferably also are free-pouring under minimum 45 ℃ comparatively high temps, perhaps can be transferred at least.But, particularly preferably be in premixture, use to contain 12 weight % at most, preferably contain the mixture of the water (based on premixture) of 9 weight % at most.Preferably in premixture, do not contain free-water fully, promptly not to be combined on the solid in any form, thereby the water of " existing " with liquid form because even extremely low water-content, for example counting 0.2 or 0.5 weight % based on premixture just is enough to be partly dissolved water miscible tackiness agent.Consequently reduced the fusing point or the softening temperature of the finished product and made the finished product lose free-flowing property and bulk density.
Shown that surprisingly water is attached to the sort of solid feed or is combined in is inessential anything but in the sort of solid state composite.Therefore, think to be attached to hereinafter for example water on zeolite or the silicate of the washing assistant described in detail that the water that especially is attached in zeolite A, zeolite P or MAP and/or the X zeolite is not very crucial.On the contrary preferably, in premixture, preferably contain water in other solid state component that is attached to non-described washing assistant below the 3 weight %.Therefore, in embodiments of the present invention, preferably the content of combination water should be no more than 10 weight % and/or should not be no more than 7 weight % with the content of zeolite and/or silicate bonded water in the premixture, is preferably 2 to 5 weight % at the most.Here, particularly advantageous is that premixture does not contain not and washing assistant bonded water fully.But, be difficult to technically realize that reason is in the ordinary course of things, always can be brought into the water of trace by raw material and mixture.
In the solid state composite that in premixture, uses, except at room temperature liquid shaping additive, the components contents that is non-water liquid state under the temperature below 45 ℃ is preferably to reaching 10 weight %, preferably to reaching 6 weight % (in each case based on the premixture meter).In premixture; the preferred solid state composite that contains the nonionogenic tenside that under the pressure of temperature below 45 ℃ and 1 crust, is in a liquid state usually that uses; they can prepare separately by any known method, for example the spray method of spray-drying process, shotting or carrier pearl.But by this method preparation example as containing about 10 weight % at the most, below the preferred 10 weight %, more preferably 8 weight %, for example premixture of the nonionogenic tenside of 1-5 weight % (based on final washing composition meter) at the most.
Contain above-mentioned form water and/or as liquid vehicle, especially as the mixture of nonionogenic tenside carrier liquid under the room temperature (be it contain at room temperature be in a liquid state composition and can use according to the present invention) preferably do not have and be lower than 45 ℃ softening temperature.Similarly, the single raw material of using separately preferably has at least 45 ℃ softening temperature.Preferably the fusing point that has of single raw material of all that use in premixture and mixture or softening temperature preferably are at least 50 ℃ all more than 45 ℃.
In one of the present invention preferred embodiment, mixture that all use in premixture and single raw material at least 80 weight %, preferred at least 85 weight %, more preferably the softening temperature of at least 90 weight % or fusing point are more much higher than the temperature that is issued in the forming technology condition.In the reality, single from the economic angle consideration, forming temperature all is not higher than 150 ℃, preferably is not higher than 120 ℃.Therefore, the employed mixture of at least 80 weight % and single softening temperature or fusing point of planting raw material are higher than 150 ℃ under normal pressure (1 crust).
Except solid is formed and the shaping additive that at room temperature is in a liquid state, premixture can contain the nonionogenic tenside that 10 weight % at the most are in a liquid state under the pressure of temperature below 45 ℃ and 1 crust, especially be generally used for the alcohol alcoxylates of washing composition or clean-out system, the C chain length that for example has is 8 to 20, and particularly every mol of alcohol on average has the Fatty Alcohol(C12-C14 and C12-C18) or the oxo alcohol of 3 to 7 ethylene oxide units.The addition of liquid non-ionic surfactant should guarantee that premixture still exists with free flowable form.If add this liquid non-ionic surfactant in premixture, adding so preferably will be separated from each other the shaping additive of a liquid non-ionic surfactant and a disintegration in technology.In one of the present invention preferred embodiment, liquid non-ionic surfactant is in the successive production process, especially adds to flow of powder by nozzle and is absorbed.
But premixture also contains at least a raw material or the mixture that plays above-mentioned shaping additive effect.The shaping additive that exists with anhydrous swelling polymer form can mix with all the other components of premixture before forming step.When forming by pressing steps or by means of compressing tablet or other pressing process, this is especially preferred.Also can be at shaping, be sprayed at shaping additive on the premixture or be added drop-wise in the premixture, by granulation formation the time, this is especially preferred especially.The temperature of shaping is room temperature or the temperature that energy input produced by former preferably, yet premixture and the shaping additive that separately adds at shaping if desired can be heated to higher temperature equally, for example 35 to 80 ℃, wherein 45 to 65 ℃ temperature is particularly advantageous.
Proof advantageously, in the processing step of compression molding, shaping additive uniform distribution as much as possible in material to be compressed.Do not wish to be confined to this theory, the inventor's viewpoint is, by under the processing condition of compression, make shaping additive (binder form) uniform distribution in premixture, make solid state composite and the single raw material that exists in case of necessity so be wrapped up by tackiness agent, then adhere to each other, almost these are little by a lot of to cause the finished product made, be made up of the individual particle that tackiness agent adheres to each other, tackiness agent then plays the preferred thin sealing coat between these individual particles.In the ideal pattern, this structure image is cellular, has filled up solid matter (mixture or single raw material of planting) in the nest chamber of honeycomb.With water, cold water when contact for example, for example in the initial stage of machine washing process, the almost moment dissolving or decompose of this thin sealing coat; Surprisingly, when shaping auxiliary agent itself at room temperature can not be dissolved in the water fast, also such situation can appear.But, preferably use such shaping additive, promptly they are in following test method, and the concentration in 1 premium on currency is under the situation of 8 shaping additives that restrain, and they are 30 ° of almost all dissolvings in 90 seconds.Yet it is favourable in some cases, controlling i.e. delay dissolving by additive.
Shaping additive must be this class material that has adhesion characteristic under forming temperature.This point also is important for the kind of the shaping additive that select to use and consumption in addition, promptly after forming step, the bonding characteristic of the finished product inside can not lost, guarantee the bonding of the finished product thus, but the finished product originally there is not viscosity under common storage and transportation conditions.Surprisingly, when being in a liquid state shaping additive under using room temperature, no matter the finished product of acquisition still under 30 ℃ of the temperature that raises slightly, promptly all can not become agglutinating at summer temp with under storage and transportation conditions at room temperature.
The mixing of washing composition or clean-out system mixture and/or raw material and while or the shaping of carrying out subsequently can be undertaken by general method, wherein apply for example granulation of compression pressure, compacting as roll-in or extruding or compressing tablet (adding under the conventional disintegrating agent situation in case of necessity) or granulation.Wherein, also spray-dired particle can be used as the prefabricated mixture in the premixture, but the present invention is not limited thereto.On the contrary, preferably do not use spray-dired particle according to method of the present invention, this is because having the superfine raw material of dust-like component according to the present invention also is easy-to-handle, and need not to carry out compound in advance, spraying drying for example.
Basically anhydrous processing method not only can make peroxygen bleach loss of activity not when handling, and can be therefore peroxygen bleach and bleach activator be processed in the particle together, and can seriously not lose its activity.
In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the compression molding of this method is undertaken by agglomeration step, wherein makes premixture carry out the agglomeration granulation in to this equipment that is fit to, and the shaping additive of above-mentioned definition plays tackiness agent.This granulation process can be carried out continuously or intermittently.Preferably the solids fraction with premixture to be compressed is placed on earlier in the tablets press (mixing tank also can be used as tablets press), if desired by adding the dust that the liquid non-ionic surfactant bonding may exist, and introduces shaping additive in tablets press.For example determine by revolution and the residence time and temperature by the kind of shaping additive and amount and machinery and operating parameters for desirable particulate average particle size particle size.Suitable tablets press for example is granulation dish, going barrel, have ploughshare mixing tank (the Pflugscharmischer) (manufacturers: Firma Loedige of knife mill ), have rotation mixing vessel and vortex generator superpower mixing tank (Firmen Laeis Bucher for example Or Eirich ), have intensive mixer (the Firma LIPP Mischtechnik for example of cutting head Or Imcatec -, Drais -, Fukae -or the Forberg-mixing tank) and the so-called Rotorcoater that has level and tilt to 50 ° rotating disk (Firma Glatt ).Taking second place suitable is Loedige CB-mixing tank, FirmaPK-Niro Sawtooth mixing tank, Ballestra Chain type mixing tank and Hosokawa -or Schugi -mixing tank.Fluidized-bed or horizontal mixer instance such as Nautamixer Also be relatively to be fit to.In this embodiment; method of the present invention is preferably carried out in room temperature or under the temperature definite by the energy input of mixing tank or tablets press; that is to say no independent heating steps, as for example international patent application WP 94/13779 and wherein quote described in the prior.In this respect; the advantage of the inventive method is to adopt two step comminution granulations; the method of in European patent application EP 0 367 339, describing for example; wherein at first in super mixer, suppress saccharoid; compressed granulate in slow-speed mixer and tablets press then, and use anhydrous swollen polymkeric substance can in single stage, compress granulation.
Detergent tablet of the present invention can prepare by conventional tabletting method, for example 200 * 10 5Pa to 1500 * 10 5Eccentric or rotation compacting under the Pa pressing pressure.
In the preferred embodiment of the inventive method; at first under the temperature that room temperature extremely raises slightly; preferably under the temperature of room temperature to 35 ℃, the solids that will be used for preparing solid-state and free flowable premixture at first mixes mutually at the mixing tank and/or the tablets press of routine.Compression step of the present invention is finished by the extruding to the premixture of such acquisition, as for example described in European patent EP 0,486 592 B1 or International Patent Application WO-A-93/02176 and the WO-A-94/09111.Wherein, under pressure, premixture is pressed into pencil, the bundle that will discharge from porous nozzle plate (Lochform) cuts into predetermined granular size with cutting unit.All even solid-state premixture contain usually make mixture pressure or under the effect of specific operation plasticity softening and become squeezable softening agent and/or lubricant.The especially anion surfactant that can mention this according to European patent EP 0486 592B1 is alkylbenzene sulfonate and/or (fat) alkyl-sulphate for example, but also can be for example polymeric polycarboxylate of polymkeric substance.Yet the method according to this invention can be abandoned using this known solid plasticizer and/or lubricant fully, because shaping additive defined above can be fulfiled the function of lubricant.Shaping additive is avoided or has been reduced adhesion on appts wall and compression set at least.This is not only applicable to the processing in forcing machine, and is equally applicable to for example in the mixing tank/tablets press of continuous operation or the processing in the roll.
To this, in above-mentioned patent and patent application, clearly explained actual pressing method.In a preferred embodiment of the present invention; preferred continuously premixture be transported to planetary rolling extrusion machine or double-shafted extruder or be furnished with in the twin-screw extruder of running in the same way or antiport, wherein its housing and its extruding granulation head can be heated to predetermined extrusion temperature.Under the shearing action of extruder screw, at pressure, under the preferred at least 25 bar pressure effects with premixture according to equipment therefor with high, also may hang down a little throughputs and compress, plastify, and be squeezed into the pencil shape by the porous nozzle plate in the extruder head, then, preferably extrudate is chopped near spherical to columned granular particle by means of the chopping mechanism of rotation.In this case, the Shu Changdu of the aperture of porous nozzle plate and cutting is determined by selected size.In this embodiment, can successfully prepare the particle that predetermined particle size is arranged basically uniformly, can adapt with the application target of expection in this absolute granular size.Generally, particle diameter preferably is 0.8 centimetre to the maximum.Here, importantly provide a kind of millimetre-sized, for example 0.5 to 5 millimeter, preferred 0.8 to 3 millimeter preparation with single-size size.In an important embodiment, the length of the primary granule of chopping is about 1 with the diameter ratio: 1-3: 1.In addition, extruding/compacting also can be at the low pressure extrusion machine, for example Kahl press or Bextruder In carry out.
