Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Erhöhung der Viskosität von rela­ tiv niedrig konzentrierten wäßrigen Textilweichmacher-Dispersionen auf Basis kationischer Weichmacher vom Typ der quartären Ammoniumverbindungen mit wenigstens zwei langen Alkyl-, Alkenyl- oder Acylgruppen durch Zusatz von relativ kleinen Mengen von Alkyl- oder Alkenyl-sulfat-Salzen oder von Alkyl- oder Alkenyl-Ethersulfat-Salzen mit 12-22 C-Atomen in der Alkyl- oder Alkenylgruppe.The invention relates to a method for increasing the viscosity of rela tiv low concentrated aqueous fabric softener dispersions Based on cationic quaternary ammonium compound plasticizers with at least two long alkyl, alkenyl or acyl groups by addition of relatively small amounts of alkyl or alkenyl sulfate salts, or of Alkyl or alkenyl ether sulfate salts with 12-22 carbon atoms in the alkyl or alkenyl group.

Die in Textilnachspülmitteln gebräuchlichen Textilweichmacher vom Typ der quartären Ammoniumverbindungen mit wenigstens zwei langkettigen Alkyl- oder Acylgruppen sind in Wasser wenig löslich und liegen daher auch im Bereich niedriger Konzentrationen von weniger als z. B. 10 Gew.-% in Was­ ser als Dispersion vor. Diese Dispersionen haben die Eigenschaft, daß sie zwar bei höheren Konzentrationen von mehr als 15 Gew.-% in Wasser sehr hochviskos und wenig fließfähig sind, im Bereich niedriger Konzentrationen unter 10 Gew.-%, also in den für Haushalts-Wäscheweichmacher üblichen Kon­ zentrationsbereich aber sind diese Dispersionen sehr dünnflüssig. Dies ist von Nachteil für die Lagerstabilität der Dispersionen und erschwert auch die Handhabung und Dosierung solcher Produkte. Eine Verdickung durch Zu­ satz bekannter wasserlöslicher Polymerisate wäre zwar möglich, solche Po­ lymeren haben jedoch Nachteile in ihrer Wirkung auf das weichzumachende Textilgewebe und auch in Bezug auf ihre biologische Abbaubarkeit.The textile softeners of the type used in textile rinse agents quaternary ammonium compounds with at least two long-chain alkyl or acyl groups are not very soluble in water and are therefore also in Range of low concentrations of less than e.g. B. 10% by weight in what ser as a dispersion. These dispersions have the property that they very much at higher concentrations of more than 15% by weight in water are highly viscous and have little flow, in the range of low concentrations below 10% by weight, i.e. in the con usual for household laundry softeners concentration range, however, these dispersions are very thin. This is disadvantageous for the storage stability of the dispersions and also difficult the handling and dosage of such products. A thickening through Zu Set of known water-soluble polymers would be possible, such Po However, lymeren have disadvantages in their effect on the softenable Textile fabrics and also in terms of their biodegradability.

Es bestand daher die Aufgabe, wäßrige Textilweichmacher-Zubereitungen auf Basis quartärer Ammoniumverbindungen durch geeignete, biologisch abbaubare Zusatzstoffe zu verdicken.There was therefore the task of aqueous textile plasticizer preparations Basis of quaternary ammonium compounds through suitable, biodegradable Thicken additives.

Aus DE 24 32 296 B2 war bekannt, daß Alkylethersulfate die Viskosität wäßriger Zubereitungen von Fettsäure-alkanolamin-Kondensaten erniedrigen.From DE 24 32 296 B2 it was known that alkyl ether sulfates make the viscosity more aqueous  Reduce preparations of fatty acid alkanolamine condensates.

Überraschend wurde festgestellt, daß Zusätze von Alkylsulfat-Salzen und Alkyl-Ethersulfatsalzen zu Dispersionen von Textilweichmachern des Typs der quartären Ammoniumverbindungen deren Viskosität erhöhen.It was surprisingly found that additions of alkyl sulfate salts and Alkyl ether sulfate salts to dispersions of textile softeners of the type the quaternary ammonium compounds increase their viscosity.

Gegenstand der Erfindung sind daher wäßrige Textilweichmacher-Zusammen­ setzungen, dieThe invention therefore relates to aqueous fabric softener compositions settlements that

  • (A) 1-10 Gew.-% eines dispergierten kationischen Weichmachers vom Typ der quartären Ammoniumverbindungen mit wenigstens zwei Alkyl-, Alkenyl-, Acyl­ oxyalkyl- oder Acylaminoalkylgruppen mit 12-22 C-Atomen in der Alkyl-, Alkenyl- oder Acylgruppe und zur Erhöhung der Viskosität(A) 1-10% by weight of a dispersed cationic plasticizer of the type quaternary ammonium compounds with at least two alkyl, alkenyl, acyl oxyalkyl or acylaminoalkyl groups with 12-22 carbon atoms in the alkyl, Alkenyl or acyl group and to increase the viscosity
  • (B) 0,1-2 Gew.-% eines Alkyl- oder Alkenylsulfat-Salzes oder eines Alkyl- oder Alkenyl-Ethersulfat-Salzes mit 12-22 C-Atomen in der Alkyl- oder Al­ kenylgruppe enthalten.(B) 0.1-2% by weight of an alkyl or alkenyl sulfate salt or an alkyl or alkenyl ether sulfate salt with 12-22 carbon atoms in the alkyl or Al contain kenyl group.

Die erfindungsgemäßen Textilweichmacher-Zusammensetzungen weisen eine deutlich erhöhte Viskosität auf, ohne daß in dem erfindungsgemäßen Bereich die Fließfähigkeit der Zubereitungen ungünstig beeinflußt wird. Auch wie­ sen die erfindungsgemäßen Wäscheweichmacher-Dispersionen eine gute Scher­ stabilität auf. Durch Scherbeanpruchung, wie sie z. B. durch längeranhal­ tendes Pumpen der Dispersion erfolgt oder durch Lagerung der Dispersionen kommt es zwar noch zu geringfügigen Viskositätszunahmen, insgesamt zeigen die erfindungsgemäßen Weichspüler-Dispersionen jedoch eine hohe Lagersta­ bilität und ein gutes Anwendungsverhalten.The textile plasticizer compositions according to the invention have a significantly increased viscosity without being in the range according to the invention the flowability of the preparations is adversely affected. Also how The laundry softener dispersions according to the invention have good shear stability on. By shear stress as z. B. by longer lasting The pumping of the dispersion takes place or by storing the dispersions there are still slight increases in viscosity, show overall however, the fabric softener dispersions according to the invention have a high storage capacity stability and good application behavior.

Als dispergierte kationische Weichmacher vom Typ der quartären Ammonium­ verbindungen (QAV) eignen sich alle hierfür bekannten QAV mit wenigstens zwei langkettigen Alkyl-, Alkenyl- oder Acylgruppen. Beispiele solcher Verbindungen sind z. B. das Distearyl-dimethyl-ammonium-chlorid oder das 1-Methyl-(1-stearoylamino)-ethyl-2-heptadecyl-imidazolinium-methosul-fat.As a dispersed cationic quaternary ammonium plasticizer connections (QAV) are suitable for all known QAV with at least two long chain alkyl, alkenyl or acyl groups. Examples of such Connections are e.g. B. the distearyl-dimethyl-ammonium chloride or 1-methyl- (1-stearoylamino) ethyl-2-heptadecyl-imidazolinium methosul-fat.

Besonders bevorzugt sind erfindungsgemäße Textilweichmacher-Zusammenset­ zungen, die als QAV eine Verbindung der Formel ITextile plasticizer compositions according to the invention are particularly preferred tongues, which as QAV a compound of formula I

enthalten, in der im Mittel 2 bis 3 der Gruppen R1 bis R4 eine Acyloxyal­ kylgruppe der Formel R5CO(OCnH2n)x- aufweisen, in der R5CO eine Acylgruppe mit 12-22 C-Atomen, n = 2 oder 3 und x = 1 bis 10 sein kann und daneben eine Alkylgruppe mit 1-4 C-Atomen und/oder eine Hydroxy(alkoxy)-alkylgrup­ pe der Formel H-(OCnH2n)x-, in der n = 2 oder 3 und x = 1 bis 10 sein kann, und A(-) ein Chlorid oder ein CH3OSO3 (-) - Anion ist. Bevorzugt sind dabei Verbindungen der Formel I, in der x = 1 und n = 2 ist und die sich von Triethanolamin ableiten. Solche QAV lassen sich z. B. durch Umsetzung von Triethanolamin mit Fettsäureestern und anschließende Quaternierung des Umsetzungsprodukts mit Methylchlorid oder Dimethylsulfat herstellen. Als Acylgruppe können dabei solche von natürlichen oder synthetischen Fettsäu­ ren mit 12-22 C-Atomen oder von technischen Gemischen pflanzlicher oder tierischer Fettsäuren, z. B. von Palmölfettsäure oder von Talgfettsäure abgeleitete Acylgruppen enthalten sein. Die Umesterung von Triethanolamin mit Fettsäureestern führt, auch wenn sie im Molverhältnis 1 : 2 bis 1 : 3 durchgeführt wurde, zu Gemischen von Mono-, Di- und Triestern des Trietha­ nolamins, die bezüglich des Gehalts an Acyloxyethylgruppen nur im Mittel dem Umsetzungsverhältnis entsprechen.contain, in which on average 2 to 3 of the groups R 1 to R 4 have an acyloxyalkyl group of the formula R 5 CO (OC n H 2n ) x -, in which R 5 CO an acyl group having 12-22 carbon atoms, n = 2 or 3 and x = 1 to 10 and in addition an alkyl group with 1-4 carbon atoms and / or a hydroxy (alkoxy) alkyl group of the formula H- (OC n H 2n ) x -, in which n = 2 or 3 and x = 1 to 10, and A (-) is a chloride or a CH 3 OSO 3 (-) anion. Compounds of the formula I in which x = 1 and n = 2 and which are derived from triethanolamine are preferred. Such QAV can e.g. B. by reacting triethanolamine with fatty acid esters and subsequent quaternization of the reaction product with methyl chloride or dimethyl sulfate. As an acyl group, those of natural or synthetic fatty acids with 12-22 carbon atoms or of technical mixtures of vegetable or animal fatty acids, eg. B. from palm oil fatty acid or tallow fatty acid derived acyl groups. The transesterification of triethanolamine with fatty acid esters, even if it was carried out in a molar ratio of 1: 2 to 1: 3, leads to mixtures of mono-, di- and triesters of triethanolamine which correspond to the reaction ratio only on average in terms of the content of acyloxyethyl groups.

Als Komponente (B) eignen sich die Schwefelsäuremonoester-Salze von Fett­ alkoholen mit 12-22 C-Atomen oder von Ethylenoxid-Addukten von 1-6 Mol Ethylenoxid an solche Fettalkohole. Als Fettalkohole eignen sich hierfür synthetische, auch geringfügig methylverzweigte, gesättigte primäre Alko­ hole wie sie z. B. durch Hydroformylierung aus Alpha-Olefinen oder durch Ziegler-Aufbausynthese aus Ethylen zugänglich sind. Bevorzugt geeignet sind aber die Sulfatsalze und Ethersulfatsalze von gesättigten und unge­ sättigten natürlichen Fettalkoholen, wie sie durch Hydrierverfahren aus entsprechenden Fettsäureestern erhältlich sind z. B. auch technische Fett­ alkoholschnitte, wie sie aus Kokos- oder Talgfettsäure-estern hergestellt werden. Die Alkylsulfate und Alkylethersulfate sollen als wasserlösliche Salze, bevorzugt als Alkali-, Magnesium- oder Ammoniumsalze, vorliegen.The sulfuric acid monoester salts of fat are suitable as component (B) alcohols with 12-22 carbon atoms or from ethylene oxide adducts of 1-6 mol Ethylene oxide to such fatty alcohols. Suitable as fatty alcohols for this synthetic, also slightly methyl-branched, saturated primary alcohol get like z. B. by hydroformylation from alpha olefins or by Ziegler synthesis from ethylene are accessible. Preferably suitable but are the sulfate salts and ether sulfate salts of saturated and unsaturated saturated natural fatty alcohols, such as those obtained from hydrogenation processes corresponding fatty acid esters are available, for.
