Definitions
- This invention relates to thickened liquid bleach compositions which may be suitable for sale and use as a domestic bleach.
- Pourable domestic bleach is frequently thickened by including one or more surfactants which, in the presence of electrolyte, act to thicken the solution rendering it more viscous than water. Thickening of a pourable domestic bleach helps the user to control dispensing of the composition and retards drainage from surfaces to which it is applied.
- This invention relates to such compositions which include surfactant and electrolyte to increase the viscosity.
- the compositions of the invention may be pourable or may be even more viscous so as not to be poured easily.
- a domestic bleach needs to be adequately stable so that a substantial proportion of the bleaching agent survives during storage between manufacture and use.
- Prior to this invention commercial liquid bleach products have frequently utilised hypochlorite as bleaching agent.
- US 3388069 discloses peroxide based compositions which have surface active properties due to the presence of C10-C24 amine oxides.
- Amine oxides are amphoteric surfactants and are said to have some stabilizing effect on peroxides at a pH of up to 8.0 (see Lindner col. 2 line 69). It is believed that the compositions will not thicken in the absence of the anionic surfactant.
- the compositions of Lindner do not have storage stability at higher pH: the compositions of Lindner are often stored at a rather lower pH than they are intended for use at, and an alkali is added before use.
- any attempt to make a surfactant-thickened, alkaline domestic liquid bleach product using hydrogen peroxide as the bleaching agent would encounter the potential problem that the thickening of the solution would require the presence of some electrolyte but that this electrolyte would serve to accelerate decomposition of the peroxide.
- a liquid, bleaching composition comprising an aqueous alkaline solution of pH 8.0-10.5, containing:
- a surfactant as specified above is advantageous in achieving thickening with a fairly low electrolyte concentration. This may make it possible for the electrolyte to be provided by ions which are in the composition for other reasons, without deliberate addition of salt for the sole purpose of enhancing ionic strength. Apart from considerations of peroxide stability, a benefit of a low electrolyte concentration is a reduced tendency for the product to leave streaks on a surface which is cleaned with it.
- a preferred possibility for the amphoteric surfactant is a trialkyl amine oxide with one long chain alkyl of 8 to 20 carbon atoms and two alkyl groups of 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
- the weight ratio of amine oxide:alcohol sulphate is preferably in the range from 82:18 to 65:35, better 80:20 to 65:35, even better 80:20 to 70:30.
- Alkane sulphonate is preferred over alcohol sulphate because the viscosity is less sensitive to changes in the composition, so making it easier to produce an end product with repeatable viscosity.
- the weight ratio of amine oxide to alkane sulphonate (when this is used) is preferably in the range from 80:20 to 50:50 or better 65:35, and preferably in the narrower range from 70:30 to 65:35.
- One or more further surfactants may also be included, within the scope of this invention.
- a sequestering agent may be used in an amount from 0,01 to 1% by weight. This is approximately 1.5 x 10 ⁇ 4 to 2 x 10 ⁇ 2 molar.
- a separate stabilising agent to counteract manganese may be a phosphate salt used in an amount from 0.5% up to 4% by weight, preferably 1 to 3% (reckoned as anhydrous salt). Tetrasodium pyrophosphate may be used as such a salt.
- colloidal hydrous stannic oxide Another possible stabilising agent which we have found to be effective in alkaline solution against decomposition caused by transition metals including both iron and manganese, is colloidal hydrous stannic oxide.
- This stabilising agent is preferably formed in-situ in the solution as the product of hydrolysis of a soluble tin compound.
- Various tin compounds can be added to the solution to undergo hydrolysis to form the stannic oxide, including tin sulphate, sodium stannate, tin dichloride and tin tetrachloride.
- Suitable concentrations of tin compound in the composition may lie in the range from 10 ⁇ 4 molar to 10 ⁇ 2 molar, preferably 3 x 10 ⁇ 3 to 6 x 10 ⁇ 3 molar.
- the quantity of tin compound should not be substantially greater than necessary, since excess of it can itself cause peroxide decomposition.
- An optimum concentration of the tin compound (or any stabiliser) can be determined by making test solutions with various concentrations of the stabiliser and analytically determining the amount of hydrogen peroxide remaining after a period of storage.
- An appropriate viscosity for a pourable composition having the appearance of a thick liquid is a dynamic viscosity in the range from 40 to 250 centipoise (0.05 to 0.25 Pa.sec), preferably about 100 centipoise (0.1 Pa.sec). More viscous liquids for example with viscosity in the range from 250 to 1000 centipoise or more are also within the scope of the invention.
- compositions of this invention are generally aqueous, they will usually have specific gravity close to unity. Consequently values of kinematic viscosities (in stokes) will be numerically approximately the same as values of dynamic viscosity (in poise). Dynamic viscosities expressed in Pascal.sec will be approximately 1000 times kinetic viscosities expressed in m2 .sec ⁇ 1.
- the pH of the solution is preferably in the range from 8.5 to 9.8 or 10.0. With a phosphonate stabiliser it is further preferred that the pH is in the narrower range from 9.2 to 9.8, while with colloidal stannic oxide as stabiliser it is preferable to use a slightly lower pH in the range from 8.7 to 9.3.
- a buffer may be included to maintain pH at the desired value, but this may not be necessary.
- a phosphate, if present, will give a buffering action.
- Another compound which may be used for this purpose is borax.
- the concentration of hydrogen peroxide in compositions of this invention desirably lies in the range from 2 to 10% by weight.
- Formulations were prepared containing the constituents set out in Table 1 below. The compositions were stored in plastic bottles at 37°C. At intervals aliquots were removed and titrated with potassium permanganate to determine the level of hydrogen peroxide remaining. Results are included in Table 1.
- Example 1 The procedure of Example 1 was repeated, using formulations with the same amounts of hydrogen peroxide, surfactant, perfume and dye.
- Various tin compounds were used at a concentration of 6 x 10 ⁇ 3 molar, both with and without 3.0% borax decahydrate. Glass bottles were used, which are somewhat detrimental to stability. In every case pH was 9.6 initially. Proportions of hydrogen peroxide remaining after 28 days were:- SnCl2 with borax 68% Na2SnO3 with borax 47% SnSO4 with borax 45% Na2SnO3 without borax 96% SnCl4 without borax 68%
- the thickening systems used various constituents and varied both in the properties and total amounts of materials employed.
- the thickening systems contained tallow dimethylamine oxide (AO) together with sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS), or sodium alkane sulphonate (SAS), which was a secondary alkane sulphonate derived from an n-alkane mixture which is principally C13 to C18.
- AO tallow dimethylamine oxide
- SLS sodium lauryl sulphate
- SAS sodium alkane sulphonate
- Viscosities of the formulations were measured using a Ubbelohde capillary viscometer. The results obtained are shown in the accompanying Figures.
- Figure 1 shows variation in viscosity with the proportion of SLS in an AO/SLS mixture, while the total amount of AO plus SLS is varied from 1.1% to 1.9% by weight of the composition.
- Figure 2 shows variation in viscosity for AO/SAS mixtures while the total of AO plus SAS is varied from 1.2% to 2.6% of the composition. It can be seen that the viscosity maxima are broader peaks, while the maximum viscosity is less sensitive to variation in the total amount of AO plus SAS.
- concentration of surfactant to give a viscosity of 100cS is 1.2%, and an increase from this of 0.2%, up to 1.4%, would double the viscosity to 200cS.
- 1.4% total surfactant gives a viscosity of 100cS. Increasing by 0.2% increases the viscosity to 150cS and a larger increase, to 1.8%, is required to achieve 200cS.
- Alkaline solutions of hydrogen peroxide were prepared containing surfactant, sodium chloride and stannic chloride which hydrolysed to colloidal hydrous stannic oxide.
- the quantities of surfactant and sodium chloride were such as to give viscosities well in excess of that preferred for a pourable "thick liquid” type of bleach product. Smaller quantities could be used to give a "thick liquid” type of bleach product.
- the initial concentration of hydrogen peroxide was 4% by weight.
- the solutions were made alkaline to pH 10 with sodium hydroxide.
- Stannic chloride was used at a concentration of 2.3 x 10 ⁇ 3 molar.
- the surfactant system consisted of 4.5% by weight of C12-C14 alkyl dimethyl amine oxide and 4.5% by weight sodium lauryl sulphate. This was used with a sodium chloride concentration of 95 by weight.
- the solutions were stored at 40°C and the amount of hydrogen peroxide remaining was determined at intervals. It was found that the amounts of hydrogen peroxide remaining were between 80 and 85%.
