Definitions

  • This invention relates to a detergent composition, especially but not exclusively, to built compositions suitable for the washing of fabrics.
  • Fabric washing compositions traditionally contain one or more detergent active materials in addition to various other ingredients such as detergency builders, bleaches, fluorescers, perfumes etc. Notable applications of detergent compositions are to clean fabrics, usually by washing portable fabric items in a bowl or in a washing machine, to clean crockery and cooking utensils, again by washing in a bowl (hand dishwashing), and to clean hard surfaces such as glass, glazed surfaces, plastics, metals and enamels.
  • a number of different detergent active materials have been proposed in the art.
  • the present invention provides a built detergent composition for washing fabrics containing 2 to 50% by weight of a surfactant mixture which comprises
  • the diol and the other surfactant(s) generally give a synergistic enhancement of oily soil removal, giving greater removal of oily soil than is found with compositions of the same surfactants which are somewhat similar but outside the specified ranges.
  • composition in accordance with the invention which is rich in primary alkyl sulphate, contains some diol and possibly a small quantity of ethoxylated alcohol may possess better oily soil detergency than either primary alkyl sulphate or the diol alone yet not be as good as the ethoxylated alcohol alone.
  • compositions which is rich in primary alkyl sulphate may be preferred over the ethoxylated alcohol for other reasons, such as ability to formulate a solid product, ability to generate foam or effectiveness against other soils.
  • compositions of this invention will now be considered by turn.
  • hydrocarbyl group R in the general formula will generally be alkyl or alkenyl of 8 to 16 carbon atoms, preferably 8 to 12.
  • 1,2-Alkane diols are known compounds and can be prepared by standard methods for the preparation of diols. They can be manufactured from terminal olefins by epoxidation and then hydrolysis.
  • group R examples include cycloaliphatic groups and aromatic-aliphatic groups such as phenylethyl or dimethyl phenyl.
  • Possible primary alkyl sulphates (a), also known as sulphated fatty alcohol salts, include those of mixed alkyl chain length, in which the ratio of C12 alkyl chains to C18 alkyl chains is in the range of from 9:4 to 1:6.
  • a suitable material can be obtained from a mixture of synthetic lauryl and oleyl alcohols in appropriate proportions.
  • the solubilizing cation of the alkyl sulphates is preferably an alkali metal, notably sodium or potassium.
  • nonionic surfactant (b) is ethoxylated nonionic surfactants for which the average number of ethylene oxide residues is high enough to yield an HLB value of at least 11.0.
  • these may in particular be ethoxylated alcohols. In such compounds the alcohol generally contains from 9 to 15 carbon atoms.
  • alkyl polyglycosides of general formula R2O(R3O) t (G) x provided the value of x is sufficiently high to give an HLB of at least 11.
  • the hydrophobic group R3 is preferably aliphatic, either saturated or unsaturated, notably straight or branched alkyl, alkenyl, hydroxyalkyl or hydroxyalkenyl.
  • R3 may include an aryl group for example alkyl-aryl, alkenyl-aryl and hydroxyalkyl-aryl.
  • R is alkyl or alkenyl of 8 to 16 carbon atoms.
  • t in the general formula above is preferably zero, so that the -(RO) t - unit of the general formula is absent. In that case the general formula becomes RO(G) x
  • R3O is an ethylene oxide residue.
  • Other likely possibilities are propylene oxide and glycerol residues.
  • the value of t (which may be an average value) will preferably lie in the range from 0.5 to 3.
  • the group G is typically derived from fructose, glucose, mannose, galactose, talose, gulose, allose, altrose, idose, arabinose, xylose, lyxose and/or ribose.
  • the G is provided substantially exclusively by glucose units.
  • x which is an average, is usually termed the degree of polymerization. Desirably x varies between 1 and 8. Values of x may lie between 1 and 3, especially 1 and 1.8.
  • Polyglycosides of particular interest have x in the narrow range from 1 or 1.2 up to 1.4 or especially 1.3. If x exceeds 1.3 it preferably lies in the range 1.3 or 1.4 to 1.8.
  • R is C8 to C14 alkyl or alkenyl.
  • the surfactant mixture may be diol (i) with primary alkyl sulphate (a) diol (i) with nonionic surfactant (b) diol (i) with both of (a) and (b).
  • the amounts of (a) and (b) must comply with certain limits which require, in qualitative terms a mixture in which (a) or (b) is preponderant over the other, or a mixture in which the amounts of (a) and (b) are not too far from being equal.
  • This latter possibility is a range of 40:60 to 70:30.
  • nonionic surfactant (b) may, for example, be an ethoxylated nonionic or an alkylpolyglycoside (each as specified above) or a mixture of the two.
  • Detergent compositions of the invention may contain yet further surfactants, outside the definitions specified for (i) and (ii).
  • the proviso stated above limits the amount of non-soap anionic surfactant other than primary alkyl sulphate.
  • additional surfactants is not preferred, since it may harm the desired synergy. Consequently, the amount of any surfactants other than (i) and (ii) as defined is likely to be less than 50% by weight better less than 25% or even 10%, of the surfactant mixture.
  • Additional surfactant may be anionic, nonionic or amphoteric. Cationic surfactant is possible, especially if anionic surfactant is absent but is preferably excluded.
  • Detergent compositions of the invention also contain detergency builder. Generally the amount of detergency builder is from 7 to 70% by weight of the composition.
  • a detergent composition of this invention is in solid form, the composition is likely to contain at least 10 or 15% of builder.
  • compositions according to the invention be approximately neutral or preferably alkaline, that is when the composition is dissolved in an amount to give surfactant concentration of 1 g/l in distilled water at 25°C the pH should desirably be at least 7.5.
  • the pH will usually be greater, such as at least 9.
  • the compositions may include a water-soluble alkaline salt. This salt may be a detergency builder (as described in more detail below) or a non-building alkaline material.
  • compositions of the invention contain a detergency builder material
  • this may be any material capable of reducing the level of free calcium ions in the wash liquor and will preferably provide the compositions with other beneficial properties such as the generation of an alkaline pH and the suspension of soil removed from the fabric.
  • Examples of phosphorus-containing inorganic detergency builders when present, include the water-soluble salts, especially alkali metal pyrophosphates, orthophosphates, polyphosphates and phosphonates.
  • Specific examples of inorganic phosphate builders include sodium and potassium tripolyphosphates, orthophosphates and hexametaphosphates.
  • non-phosphorus-containing inorganic detergency builders when present, include water-soluble alkali metal carbonates, bicarbonates, silicates and crystalline and amorphous alumino silicates. Specific examples include sodium carbonate (with or without calcite seeds), potassium carbonate (with or without calcite seeds), sodium and potassium bicarbonates and silicates.
  • organic detergency builders when present include the alkali metal, ammonium and substituted ammonium polyacetates, carboxylates, polycarboxylates, polyacetyl carboxylates and polyhydroxsulphonates. Specific examples include sodium, potassium, lithium, ammonium and substituted ammonium salts of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, nitrilotriacetic acid, oxydisuccinic acid, melitic acid, benzene polycarboxylic acids and citric acid. Further possibilities are tartrate monosuccinates, tartrate disuccinates, dipicolinic acid, cheledamic acid, carboxy methyloxysuccinate and hydroxyethyliminodiacetic acid.
  • ingredients already mentioned a number of optional ingredients may also be present.
  • other ingredients which may be present in the composition are polymers containing carboxylic or sulphonic acid groups in acid form or wholly or partially neutralised to sodium or potassium salts, the sodium salts being preferred.
  • Preferred polymers are homopolymers and copolymers of acrylic acid and/or maleic acid or maleic anhydride.
  • the molecular weights of homopolymers and copolymers are generally 1000 to 150,000, preferably 1500 to 100,000.
  • the amount of any polymer may lie in the range from 0.5 to 5% by weight of the composition.
  • Other suitable polymeric materials are cellulose ethers such as carboxy methyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, hydroxy alkyl celluloses, and mixed ethers, such as methyl hydroxy ethyl cellulose, methyl hydroxy propyl cellulose, and methyl carboxy methyl cellulose. Mixtures of different cellulose ethers, particularly mixtures of carboxy methyl cellulose and methyl cellulose, are suitable.

  • Polyvinyl pyrrolidone of molecular weight of 10,000 to 60,000 preferably of 30,000 to 50,000 and copolymers of polyvinyl pyrrolidone with other poly pyrrolidones are suitable.
  • Polyacrylic phosphinates and related copolymers of molecular weight 1000 to 100,000, in particular 3000 to 30,000 are also suitable.
  • ingredients which may be present in the composition include fabric softening agents such as fatty amines, fabric softening clay materials, lather boosters such as alkanolamides, particularly the monoethanolamides derived from palm kernel fatty acids and coconut fatty acids, lather depressants, oxygen-releasing bleaching agents such as sodium perborate and sodium percarbonate, typically accompanied by peracid bleach precursors, organic peracids, chlorine-releasing bleaching agents such as trichloroisocyanuric acid, inorganic salts such as sodium sulphate, and, usually present in very minor amounts, fluorescent agents, perfumes including deodorant perfumes, enzymes such as cellulases, proteases, lipases and amylases, germicides and colourants.

  • the detergent compositions according to the invention may be in any suitable form including powders, bars, liquids and pastes.
  • suitable liquid compositions may be non-aqueous or aqueous, the latter being either isotropic or lamellar structured.
  • the compositions may be prepared by a number of different methods according to their physical form. In the case of granular products they may be prepared by dry-mixing, coagglomeration, spray-drying from an aqueous slurry or any combination of these methods.
  • One preferred physical form is a granule incorporating a detergency builder salt. This may be prepared by conventional granulation techniques or spray drying.
  • Another preferred physical form is a lamellar structured aqueous liquid, for heavy duty fabrics washing, in which the surfactant mixture provides structure capable of suspending particulate solids.
  • the surfactant (ii) may be nonionic surfactant (b).
  • the aqueous continuous phase of such a liquid will usually contain dissolved electrolyte. Electrolyte may be dissolved only in the aqueous continuous phase or may also be present as suspended solid particles. Particles of solid materials which are insoluble in the aqueous phase may be suspended alternatively or in addition to any solid electrolyte particles.
  • the suspended solid can comprise suspended solids which are substantially the same as the dissolved electrolyte, being an excess of same beyond the solubility limit. This solid is usually present as a detergency builder, i.e. to counteract the effects of calcium ion water hardness in the wash.
  • the suspended solid usually comprises a particulate abrasive, insoluble in the system. In that case the electrolyte, present to contribute to the structuring of the active material in the dispersed phase, is generally different from the abrasive compounds. In certain cases, the abrasive can however comprise partially soluble salts which dissolve when the product is diluted.
  • the structure is usually used for thickening the product to give consumer-preferred flow properties, and sometimes to suspend pigment particles.
