Definitions

  • This invention relates to anti-foam granules for use in detergent compositions and to a process for their preparation.
  • compositions contain a special mixture of liquid hydrocarbon with either a solid hydrocarbon or a fatty acid ester and a hydrophobic silica.
  • the anti-foam system consists of:
  • the present invention provides a detergent composition containing an anionic surfactant and/or a nonionic surfactant and anti-foam granules comprising hydrophobic silica and a mixture of at least one hydrocarbon which is liquid at room temperature and at atmospheric pressure and at least one solid hydrocarbon with a melting point in the range from 35°C to 110°C characterised in that the liquid hydrocarbon component constitutes less than 30% by weight of the total hydrocarbon and in that the silica and the mixture of liquid and solid hydrocarbons are sorbed on a core of a material producing a mechanical action on addition to water.
  • the liquid hydrocarbon component in a detergent composition according to the present invention comprises from 15-25% by weight of the total hydrocarbon.
  • the solid hydrocarbon component is preferably a petroleum jelly or a paraffin wax having a drop-melting point of 50°C or higher.
  • a second aspect of the invention provides two alternative processes for manufacturing granules for use in the compositions.
  • the invention provides first a process for the production of anti-foam granules which comprises:
  • compositions of the invention will contain both a nonionic surfactant and an anionic surfactant.
  • compositions which contain both types of surfactant produce lower amounts of foam than those which contain only anionic surfactant and consequently lower amounts of anti-foam granule will be required to control the foam.
  • Typical anionic surfactants which may be present in amounts of from about 2 to 35% by weight of the finished compositions are sodium alkylbenzene sulphonates, preferably the C l6- C l6 alkyl compounds, sodium primary and secondary alkyl sulphates, preferably the C, o -C 2z alkyl sulphates, sodium olefine sulphonates, preferably the C lo -C, 8 sulphonates and sodium alkane sulphonates.
  • Soaps of fatty acids may also be present, preferably the sodium and potassium salts of C lO -C 22 fatty acids, both saturated and unsaturated.
  • soap is the sole anionic surfactant it may be present in an amount up to about 65% by weight of the finished composition, down to about 0.2% by weight when other anionic surfactants are present.
  • Typical soaps which can be used are those formed from coconut oil, tallow, hydrogenated tallow, hydrogenated rapeseed oil and natural oils containing high proportions of oleic acid such as sunflower oil.
  • Typical nonionic surfactants are ethoxylated primary and secondary alcohols of from 8 to 25 carbon atoms containing from 3 to 25 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of alcohol. These materials may generally be present in an amount of from 1 to 25% by weight, based on the weight of the finished composition.
  • Typical detergency builders which can be used are the water-soluble phosphates, carbonates, percarbonates and aluminosilicates, particularly the sodium and potassium salts of these compounds.
  • Organic builders may also be used, examples being sodium carboxymethyloxysuccinate, sodium citrate, sodium polyacrylates and sodium nitrilotriacetate. Any of these compounds, or any other builder compound, in any suitable mixture, may be used in amounts of from 5 to 60% by weight of the finished composition.
  • Other components which will normally be present are bleaching agents, corrosion inhibitors, anti-redeposition agents, fluorescers, stabilisers and substantial proportions of water.
  • each powder was subjected to accelerated ageing by storing it in an E3 unlaminated cardboard carton for 2 or 4 weeks at 37°C and 60% relative humidity.
  • the anti-foam granules for incorporation into powders were prepared by forming a molten mixture of the liquid hydrocarbon, the solid hydrocarbon and silica and spraying the mixture onto the sorbent in a pan granulator.
