Definitions

  • This invention relates to anti-foam compositions.
  • Anti-foam compositions are widely used in industry, especially in the detergents, textile and paper industries.
  • the chemical nature of the anti-foam materials which have been suggested in the past is very diverse, but this invention is concerned with certain mixtures of polysiloxanes with defined particulate solids.
  • an anti-foam composition comprising the combination of a hydrophobic liquid and a particulate solid, characterised in that the hydrophobic liquid is a polysiloxane and the particulate solid comprises an eG, ⁇ ⁇ dialkylamide alkane, a polyvalent metal salt of an alkyl phosphoric acid or polyvalent alkali metal salt of an alkyl carboxylic acid, or a precursor of such a salt.
  • the present invention provides a further choice of anti-foam compositions which are useful for a variety of applications, but which are especially useful for producing low foaming soap and detergent compositions.
  • a detergent composition characterised by containing an anti-foam composition
  • an anti-foam composition comprising the combination of a hydrophobic liquid and a particulate solid, wherein the hydrophobic liquid is a polysiloxane and the particulate solid comprises an ⁇ , ⁇ dialkylamide alkane, a polyvalent metal salt of an alkyl phosphoric acid or a polyvalent metal salt of an alkyl carboxylic acid, or a precursor of such a salt.
  • a precursor in this context, is meant a free acid or a monovalent salt which will react with polyvalent metal ion in solution to form the desired species.
  • the particulate solid comprises an ⁇ , ⁇ dialkylamide alkane or a polyvalent metal salt of an alkyl phosphoric acid.
  • the anti-foam composition When the anti-foam composition is incorporated into a fabric washing powder and when the polysiloxane is mobile, then it will be desirable to protect the anti-foam composition, otherwise the mobile liquid will migrate away from the particulate solid, leading to deactivation of the foam-inhibiting properties. Protection techniques which are known in the detergents art are appropriate here.
  • the anti-foam composition can be encapsulated in a water-soluble or water-dispersible medium such as gelatin or polyethylene glycol, or it may be granulated on a spherical or cylindrical core of sucrose or gelatinised starch.and subsequently coated with, for example, paraffin wax.
  • the polysiloxanes used in the invention are generally alkyl polysiloxanes. These materials are well known to industrial chemists and are available in a wide range of molecular weights, the higher molecular weight materials, as is usually the case with polymers, tending to be more viscous. Polysiloxanes are available from various suppliers, for example Dow Corning Corporation of Illinois, USA, and Rhone-Poulenc Chemie, France.
  • the anti-foam composition will normally be present in detergent compositions in accordance with the invention in amounts of from 0.1 to 2%, preferably 0;.1 to 1%.
  • compositions are especially effective when incorporated into a liquid detergent and we prefer that it should be applied to liquid detergent compositions of both the structured and unstructured types.
  • the usual detergent composition components can be incorporated provided that they have no adverse reaction with the components of the anti-foam composition.
  • anionic surfactants such as alkylbenzene sulphonates, primary and secondary alkyl sulphates, secondary alkane sulphonates, soaps and olefine sulphonates can be used.
  • Nonionic surfactants either alone or in combination with anionic surfactants can also be used, the preferred nonionic surfactants being C 7 to C 24 primary or secondary alcohols ethoxylated with from 1 to 25 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of alcohol. Typical amounts of surfactant are from 3 to 25% by weight when only one species is present, and from 1 to 16% by weight when more than one is present.
  • Builders may be present in amounts of from 5 to 50% by weight.
  • Typical of the inorganic builders are sodium tripolyphosphate, sodium pyrophosphate and sodium orthophosphate, sodium carbonate and the crystalline and amorphous forms of aluminosilicates.
  • Organic builders such as sodium nitrilotriacetate, sodium citrate, sodium carboxymethyloxysuccinate, and the host of other materials have been been suggested as phosphate replacers are also appropriate.
  • sodium silicate as a corrosion inhibitor and powder structurant
  • oxygen bleaches such as sodium perborate and sodium percarbonate
  • bleach precursors such as tetraacetylethylene diamine, fluorescers, antiredeposition agents and anti- ashing agents, suds-suppressing agents other than the anti-foam compositions of this invention, and moisture.
  • compositions in powdered (granular) form although some are also suitable for incorporation into liquids.
  • optional components particularly appropriate to this form include electrolytes, hydrotropes, opacifiers, stabilising polymers, organic solvents and colourants.
  • the anti-foam composition will contain from 1 to 40% by weight of the particulate solid.
  • a soap-based fabric washing composition was prepared by standard spray-cooling and dry-dosing techniques to the following formulation.
  • Solution A was a solution of the powder alone in demineralised water at a concentration of 5 grams per litre
  • Solution B was a similar solution in which an anti-foam composition in accordance with the invention had been dispersed by ultrasonic agitation at a concentration of 0.2 grams per litre.
  • the anti-foam composition was a 20:80 mixture by weight of the calcium salt of a mixture of phosphoric acids sold under the registered trade mark "Alf 5" with a polysiloxane oil (Dow Corning's 200/1000cs). "Alf 5" contains 63% of the C16-18 monoester of phosphoric acid and 7% of the diester.
  • a structured liquid washing composition having the following formulation was prepared.
  • the pH of the composition was adjusted to 9.8.
  • compositions and two similar ones in which 0.1% and 0.2% by weight of the water were replaced, respectively with 0.1% and 0.2% by weight of a 1:9 mixture of methylene distearamide and a liquid polysiloxane having a viscosity of 1000 cs were subjected to test in the following manner.
  • a liquid detergent composition stabilised with polyacrylic acid was prepared to the following formulation:
  • compositions and two similar'ones in which 1.0% and 2.0% by weight of the water were replaced with 1.0% and 2.0% by weight respectively of a 1:9 mixture of ethylene distearamide and a polysiloxane having an average viscosity of 1000 cs to 60 000 cs were subjected to test in the following manner.
  • an antifoam in accordance with the invention is effective in the defined liquid composition, although as the inherent foam generating power of the surfactants used in this instance are greater than in Example 2, somewhat larger amounts of anti-foam are required.
