Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to liquid detergent compositions comprising anionic or nonionic surfactant, proteolytic enzyme, second enzyme, and an aromatic borate ester.
- A commonly encountered problem with protease-containing liquid detergents is the degradation of second enzymes in the composition by the proteolytic enzyme. The stability of the second enzyme upon storage in product and its effect on cleaning are impaired by the proteolytic enzyme.
- Boric acid and boronic acids are known to reversibly inhibit proteolytic enzymes. A discussion of the inhibition of one serine protease, subtilisin, by boronic acid is provided in Philipp, M. and Bender, M.L., "Kinetics of Subtilisin and Thiosubtilisin", Molecular & Cellular Biochemistry, vol. 51, pp. 5-32 (1983).
- One type of boronic acid, peptide boronic acid, is discussed as an inhibitor of trypsin-like serine proteases, especially in pharmaceuticals, in European Patent Application 0 293 881, Kettner et al., published December 7, 1988.
- German Patent 3 918 761, published June 28, 1990 discloses liquid enzyme concentrate which is said to be usable as a raw material solution for making liquid detergents and the like. The concentrate contains hydrolase, propylene glycol and boric acid or its salt.
- U.S. Patent 4,537,707, issued August 27, 1985 describes heavy duty liquid detergents containing anionic surfactants, fatty acid, builder, proteolytic enzyme, boric acid, calcium ions and sodium formate. The combination of boric acid and sodium formate is claimed to provide improved proteolytic enzyme stability in this composition, especially in the presence of a polyol. These compositions are free of lipase.
- European Patent Application 0 080 223, published June 1, 1983 describes detergent compositions containing a polyfunctional amino compound or a polyol together with a reducing alkali metal salt.
- Similarly in GB 2 079 305, published January 20, 1982, it is disclosed that enhanced enzyme stability can be obtained in a built liquid detergent by inclusion of boric acid, a polyol in the ratio of polyol to boric acid more than 1:1, and a cross-linked polyacrylate polymer. These compositions contain no lipase.
- In European Application 0 381 262, Aronson et al., published August 8, 1990, mixtures of proteolytic and lipolytic enzymes in a liquid medium have been disclosed. The stability of lipase is claimed to be improved by the addition of boron compound and a polyol having vicinal hydroxyl groups.
- It has now been found that certain aromatic borate esters are especially effective in reversibly inhibiting protease, in a HDL which also comprises detergency ingredients and a second enzyme.
- Upon dilution, such as under typical wash conditions, the proteolytic enzyme is no longer inhibited and can function (e.g. to remove protease-sensitive stains from fabrics in the wash).
- The present invention relates to a liquid detergent composition containing :
- a. an aromatic borate ester formed by the complexation of boric acid with an aromatic reagent of the structure:
- X is OH, SH, or NH₂;
- Y is CO₂H, substituted or unsubstituted CH₂OH, CH₂SH, CH₂NH₂ or
- each Z is H or a substituted or unsubstituted C₁-C₆ alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl or an aryl chain, OH or -O-R, wherein R is a C₁-C₆ alkyl chain, or an electron withdrawing group such as CN, NO₂ CHO, SO₃H, COOR wherein R is H or a C₁-C₆ alkyl chain;
- i is an integer of from 1 to 4,
- b. from about 0.0001 to 1 % of active proteolytic enzyme;
- c. a performance-enhancing amount of a detergent-compatible second enzyme;
- d. from about 1 to 80 weight % of anionic or nonionic surfactant.
- The present liquid detergent compositions contain certain essential ingredients : (a) an aromatic borate ester formed by the complexation of an aromatic reagent described herein after with boric acid or its derivatives; (b) proteolytic enzyme; (c) detergent-compatible second enzyme; (d) anionic and/or nonionic detersive surfactant.
- These compositions will most commonly be used for cleaning of laundry, fabrics, textiles, fibers, and hard surfaces. Heavy duty liquid laundry detergents are the preferred liquid detergent compositions herein.
- The present liquid detergent compositions contain an aromatic borate ester formed by the complexation of an aromatic reagent such as described herein after with boric acid or its derivatives.
- The aromatic borate ester can either be formed prior to incorporation in the detergent composition, or it can be formed in situ, by simply adding boric acid and the aromatic reagent in the detergent composition at any stage in its manufacturing process, or on top of the finished product.
- From about 0.1 to 20 %, preferably about 0.2 to 10% weight % of the aromatic borate ester can be used in the liquid detergent composition. The molar ratio of boric acid or its derivatives to aromatic reagent is preferably between about 20:1 and 1:20, more preferably between about 10:1 and 1:10, most preferably between 5:1 and 1:5.
-
- X is OH, SH, or NH₂;
- Y is CO₂H, substituted or unsubstituted CH₂OH, CH₂SH, CH₂NH₂ or
- each Z is H or a substituted or unsubstituted C₁-C₆ alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl or an aryl chain, OH or -O-R wherein R is a C₁-C₆ alkyl chain, or an electron withdrawing group such as CN, CHO, SO₃H, NO₂ or COOR wherein R is H or a C₁-C₆ alkyl chain,
- i is an integer of from 1 to 4; i.e there can be up to four substituents per aromatic ring.
- Preferably, there will be one substituent per aromatic ring (i.e. i=1) ; preferably, this substituent will be an electron withdrawing group, as defined hereinabove; preferably this electron withdrawing group will be in para position vs the X substituent.

- From about 0.05 to about 20%, most preferably about 0.2 to 10% weight % of aromatic reagent is preferred in the present liquid detergent compositions.
- The boric acid or its derivatives used in the mixture can be boric acid, borax, boric oxide, polyborates, orthoborates, pyroborates, metaborates, or mixtures thereof. Boric acid salts are of course included.
- In the present liquid detergent compositions, from about 0.001 to 20, more preferably about 0.02 to 10, most preferably 0.05 to 5, weight % of boric acid or derivatives is incorporated.
- A second essential ingredient in the present liquid detergent compositions is from about 0.0001 to 1.0, preferably about 0.0005 to 0.5, most preferably about 0.002 to 0.1, weight % of active proteolytic enzyme. Mixtures of proteolytic enzyme are also included. The proteolytic enzyme can be of animal, vegetable or microorganism (preferred) origin. More preferred is serine proteolytic enzyme of bacterial origin. Purified or nonpurified forms of this enzyme may be used.

Preferred proteolytic enzymes, then, are selected from the group consisting of SavinaseR, MaxacalR, BPN', Protease A and Protease B, and mixtures thereof. Protease B is most preferred.
- The third essential ingredient in the present liquid compositions is a performance-enhancing amount of a detergent-compatible second enzyme. By "detergent-compatible" is meant compatibility with the other ingredients of a liquid detergent composition, such as detersive surfactant and detergency builder. These second enzymes are preferably selected from the group consisting of lipase, amylase, cellulase, and mixtures thereof. The term "second enzyme" excludes the proteolytic enzymes discussed above, so each composition herein contains at least two kinds of enzyme, including at least one proteolytic enzyme.
- The amount of second enzyme used in the composition varies according to the type of enzyme and the use intended. In general, from about 0.0001 to 1.0, more preferably 0.001 to 0.5, weight % on an active basis of these second enzymes are preferably used.
- Mixtures of enzymes from the same class (e.g. lipase) or two or more classes (e.g. cellulase and lipase) may be used. Purified or non-purified forms of the enzyme may be used.
- Any lipase suitable for use in a liquid detergent composition can be used herein. Suitable lipases for use herein include those of bacterial and fungal origin. Second enzymes from chemically or genetically modified mutants are included.

- Any soil release agents known to those skilled in the art can be employed in the practice of this invention. Preferred polymeric soil release agents are characterized by having both hydrophilic segments, to hydrophilize the surface of hydrophobic fibers, such as polyester and nylon, and hydrophobic segments, to deposit upon hydrophobic fibers and remain adhered thereto through completion of washing and rinsing cycles and, thus, serve as an anchor for the hydrophilic segments. This can enable stains occurring subsequent to treatment with the soil release agent to be more easily cleaned in later washing procedures.
- Whereas it can be beneficial to utilize polymeric soil release agents in any of the detergent compositions hereof, especially those compositions utilized for laundry or other applications wherein removal of grease and oil from hydrophobic surfaces is needed, the presence of polyhydroxy fatty acid amide in detergent compositions also containing anionic surfactants can enhance performance of many of the more commonly utilized types of polymeric soil release agents. Anionic surfactants interfere with the ability of certain soil release agents to deposit upon and adhere to hydrophobic surfaces. These polymeric soil release agents have nonionic hydrophile segments or hydrophobe segments which are anionic surfactant-interactive.
- One type of preferred soil release agent is a copolymer having random blocks of ethylene terephthalate and polyethylene oxide (PEO) terephthalate. More specifically, these polymers are comprised of repeating units of ethylene terephthalate and PEO terephthalate in a mole ratio of ethylene terephthalate units to PEO terephthalate units of from about 25:75 to about 35:65, said PEO terephthalate units containing polyethylene oxide having molecular weights of from about 300 to about 2000. The molecular weight of this polymeric soil release agent is in the range of from about 25,000 to about 55,000. See U.S. Patent 3,959,230 to Hays, issued May 25, 1976, which is incorporated by reference. See also U.S. Patent 3,893,929 to Basadur issued July 8, 1975 (incorporated by reference) which discloses similar copolymers.
- Another preferred polymeric soil release agent is a polyester with repeat units of ethylene terephthalate units containing 10-15% by weight of ethylene terephthalate units together with 90-80% by weight of polyoxyethlyene terephthalate units, derived from a polyoxyethylene glycol of average molecular weight 300-5,000, and the mole ratio of ethylene terephthalate units to polyoxyethylene terephthalate units in the polymeric compound is between 2:1 and 6:1. Examples of this polymer include the commercially available material ZelconR 5126 (from Dupont) and Milease R T (from ICI). These polymers and methods of their preparation are more fully described in U.S. Patent 4,702,857, issued October 27, 1987, to Gosselink, which is incorporated herein.
- Other suitable polymeric soil release agents include the ethyl or methyl-capped 1,2-propylene terephthalate-polyoxyethylene terephthalate polyesters of U.S. Patent 4,711,730, issued December 8, 1987, to Gosselink et al., the anionic end-capped oligomeric esters of U.S. Patent 4,721,580, issued January 26, 1988, to Gosselink, wherein the anionic end-caps comprise sulfopolyethoxy groups derived from polyethylene glycol (PEG), the block polyester oligomeric compounds of U.S. Patent 4,702,857, issued October 27, 1987 to Gosselink, having polyethoxy end-caps of the formula X-(OCH₂CH₂)n- wherein n is from 12 to about 43 and X is a C₁-C₄ alkyl, or preferably methyl, all of these patents being incorporated herein by reference.
- Additional polymeric soil release agents include the soil release agents of U.S. Patent 4,877,896, issued October 31, 1989 to Maldonado et al., which discloses anionic especially sulfoaroyl, end-capped terepthalate esters, said patent being incorporated herein by reference. The terephthalate esters contain unsymmetrically substituted oxy-1,2-alkyleneoxy untis. Included among the soil release polymers of U.S. Patent 4,877.896 are materials with polyoxyethylene hydrophile components or C₃ oxyalkylene terephthalate (propylene terephthalate) repeat units within the scope of the hydrophobe components of (b)(i) above. It is the polymeric soil release agents characterized by either, or both, of these criteria that particularly benefit from the inclusion of the polyhydroxy fatty acid amides hereof, in the presence of anionic surfactants.
- If utilized, soil release agents will generally comprise from about 0.01% to about 10.0%, by weight, of the detergent compositions herein, typically from about 0.1% to about 5%, preferably from about 0.2% to about 3.0%.

U.S. Patent 3,812,044, issued May 21, 1974, to Connor et al., incorporated herein by reference, discloses polyfunctionally - substituted aromatic chelating and sequestering agents. Preferred compounds of this type in acid form are dihydroxydisulfobenzenes such as 1,2-dihydroxy -3,5-disulfobenzene. Alkaline detergent compositions can contain these materials in the form of alkali metal, ammonium or substituted ammonium (e.g. mono-or triethanol-amine) salts. - If utilized, these chelating agents will generally comprise from about 0.1% to about 10% by weight of the detergent compositions herein. More preferably chelating agents will comprise from about 0.1% to about 3.0% by weight of such compositions.
- The compositions of the present invention can also optionally contain water-soluble ethoxylated amines having clay soil removal and anti-redeposition properties. Liquid detergent compositions which contain these compounds typically contain from about 0.01% to 5%.
