Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to aqueous liquid detergent compositions of the suspending type, i.e. compositions in which particles of a different density can be stably suspended. In particular, the invention relates to aqueous liquid detergent compositions of the suspending type which exhibit good cleaning performance and simultaneously impart a softening quality to the fabrics being laundered.
- Simultaneous cleaning and softening is desirable, as it provides the user with increased convenience in the laundering operation, rendering redundant the after-wash softening/rinse cycle and the separate dosing of special-purpose softening compositions.
- A number of attempts have been made to formulate fabric-washing detergent compositions which exhibit the cleaning performance as expected by the modem user and simultaneously provide sufficient softening efficacy. In the field of solid detergent compositions, proposals have been made to incorporate cationic fabric softeners in anionic detergent-based compositions by inclusion of means which overcome the natural incompatibility of anionic and cationic detergent actives due to complexation of these compounds resulting in a consequent decrease in detergency and softening efficacy.
- To our knowledge, no proposals have been made to formulate aqueous liquid compositions based on structured active systems including a combination of anionic and cationic detergent actives.
- It has now been found that long-chain fatty amines, which are suitable to impart through-the- wash softening, can be stably incorporated in aqueous liquid detergent compositions of the suspending type, provided the compositions are formulated to have a pH value above the isoelectric point of the fatty amine.
- Accordingly, the present invention provides an aqueous suspending liquid detergent composition for the cleaning and softening of fabrics which comprises:
- (a) a nonionic detergent-active material and/or an anionic derivative of a polyalkoxylated nonionic detergent-active material; and
- (b) an anionic detergent-active material other than component (a),
- (c) an effective amount of a long-chain fatty amine, the pH of said composition being above the isoelectric point of said amine.
- In general the composition also comprises one or more electrolytes as part of the active system, thereby providing the structure necessary for the suspending properties of the composition.
- The invention will now be discussed in more detail.
- Suitable nonionic detergent-actives for use in the present invention may be found in the following classes: fatty acid alkylolamides, alkylene oxide condensates of alkylphenols or primary and secondary aliphatic alcohols, alkylamines, alkyl mercaptans and amine oxides.
- The ethylene oxide condensates and mixtures of ethylene oxide condensates with fatty acid alkylolamides are preferred. Particularly suitable have been found ethylene oxides having a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance of between 11 and 15, such as C"C,5 alcohols condensed with 6-8 ethylene oxides.
- Also anionic derivatives of, in particular, polyalkoxylated nonionic detergent materials which have retained to a large extent a nonionic character, can be used instead of or in combination with nonionic detergent-actives. Suitable examples are the sulphated, phosphated or carboxylated polyalkoxylated nonionic detergent-actives, such as the alkyl and alkylaryl polyethoxy ether sulphates. Suitable alkyl polyethoxy ether sulphates have about 10 to about 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain and have an average of 1 to 12, preferably 1 to 6 ethylene oxide units.
- A wide range of anionic surfactants can be used in the compositions of the present invention.
- Suitable anionic non-soap surfactants are water-soluble salts of alkyl benzene sulphonates, alkyl sulphates, paraffin sulphonates, alpha-olefin sulphonates, alpha-sulphocarboxylates and their esters, alkyl glyceryl ether sulphonates, fatty acid monoglyceride sulphates and sulphonates, 2- acyloxy-alkane-1-sulphonates, and beta-alkoxy alkane sulphonates. Soaps are also suitable anionic surfactants.
- Especially preferred alkyl benzene sulphonates have about 9 to about 15 carbon atoms in a linear or branched alkyl chain, more especially about 11 to about 13 carbon atoms. Suitable alkyl sulphates have about 10 to about 22 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain, more especially from about 12 to about 18 carbon atoms.
- Suitable paraffin sulphonates are essentially linear and contain from about 8 to about 24 carbon atoms, more especially from about 14 to about 18 carbon atoms.
- Suitable alpha-olefin sulphonates have about 10 to about 24 carbon atoms, more especially about 14 to about 16 carbon atoms; alpha-olefin sulphonates can be made by reaction with sulphur trioxide, followed by neutralization under conditions such that any sultones present are hydrolyzed to the corresponding hydroxy alkane sulphonates. Suitable alpha-sulphocarboxylates contain from about 6 to about 20 carbon atoms; included herein are not only the salts of alpha-sulphonated fatty acids, but also their esters made from alcohols containing about 1 to about 14 carbon atoms.
- Suitable alkyl glyceryl ether sulphates are ethers of alcohols having about 10 to about 18 carbon atoms, more especially those derived from coconut oil and tallow. Suitable alkyl phenol polyethoxy ether sulphates have about 8 to about 12 carbon atoms in the alkyl chain and an average of about 1 to about 6 ethylene oxide units per molecule. Suitable 2-acyloxy-alkane-1-sulphonates contain from about 2 to about 9 carbon atoms in the acyl group and about 9 to about 23 carbon atoms in the alkane moiety. Suitable beta-alkyloxy alkane sulphonates contain about 1 to about 3 carbon atoms in the alkyl group and about 8 to about 20 carbon atoms in the alkane moiety.
- The alkyl chains of the foregoing non-soap anionic surfactants can be derived from natural sources such as coconut oil or tallow, or can be made synthetically, as for example by using the Ziegler or Oxo processes. Water-solubility can be achieved by using alkali metal, ammonium, or alkanolammonium cations; sodium is preferred. Mixtures of anionic surfactants are contemplated by this invention; a satisfactory mixture contains alkyl benzene sulphonate having 11-13 carbon atoms in the alkyl group and alkyl sulphate having 12 to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl group.
- Suitable soaps contain about 8 to about 18 carbon atoms, more especially about 12 to about 18 carbon atoms. Soaps can be made by direct saponification of natural fats and oils such as coconut oil, tallow and palm oil, or by neutralization of free fatty acids obtained from either natural or synthetic sources. The soap cation can be alkali metal, ammonium or alkanolammonium; sodium is preferred.
- The amount of the active detergent material may vary from 1 to 60%, preferably from 2-40% and especially preferably from 5-25%; when mixtures of e.g. anionics and nonionics are used, the relative weight ratio varies from 10:1 to 1:10, preferably from 6:1 to 1:6. When a soap is also incorporated, the amount thereof is from 1-40% by weight.
- A particularly preferred active detergent mixture is that of a water-soluble anionic sulphonate or sulphate detergent and a nonionic detergent in a weight ratio of from about 6:1 to 1:1, with or without a soap in a ratio of up to 2:1 with respect to the nonionic detergent constituent.
- In order to establish the suspending properties of the compositions according to the present invention, the inclusion of one or more electrolytes, in particular of the salting-out type, is often essential.
- It is well known that the extent to which a nonionic detergent-active or derivative thereof is salted out by a salting-out electrolyte, resulting in a certain lowering of the cloud point, is dependent upon the nature and the amount of salting-out electrolyte used. In general, the composition may contain from 1 to 60% by weight, and preferably from 3 to 50% by weight, and particularly preferably from 10 to 35% by weight of the salting-out electrolytes.
- Typical examples of such salting-out electrolytes are water-soluble builder salts, such as the alkali metal ortho-and pyrophosphates, the alkali metal tripolyphosphates, such as sodium tripolyphosphate, the alkali metal silicates, alkali metal borates, alkali metal carbonates, alkali metal sulphates, alkali metal citrates; alkali metal salts of nitrilotriacetate; alkali metal salts of carbox- ymethyloxy succinate. Instead of the alkali metal salts, the ammonium and ethanol-substituted ammonium salts can be used.
- Depending upon type and level of salting-out electrolyte used, it may be advantageous to include also a certain level of a non-salting-out electrolyte. This can be determined by routine experimentation, using the general indications below as to level and type of auxiliary electrolytes.
- Typical examples of suitable auxiliary electrolytes are alkali metal iodides, alkali metal (per)-chlorates, alkali metal rhodanides, and alkali metal nitrates, and alkali metal bromides and alkali metal chlorides. The corresponding ammonium and ethanol-substituted ammonium salts can also be used. The auxiliary electrolyte is generally used in the composition in an amount of 0.5 to 35% by weight, preferably 1 to 30% by weight, and particularly preferably 2 to 25% by weight.

- The compositions should contain from 0.5% to 15% by weight of the amine, preferably from 1% to 10% by weight and most preferably from 2% to 5% by weight.
