Definitions

  • the invention relates to new sulfosuccinates obtainable by reacting fatty alcohol polyethylene glycol ethers which have a narrow homolog distribution with maleic acid or maleic anhydride and subsequent sulfitation of the resulting monoesters or diesters, a process for their preparation and their use in washing, rinsing and washing ⁇ cleaning agents and products for hair and body care.
  • Sulfosuccinates which are also known as sulfosuccinic acid esters, are anionic surfactants which, due to their excellent application properties and their good dermatological compatibility, serve in the broadest sense for the production of cleaning products which come into contact with human skin.

  • sulfosuccinates To prepare the sulfosuccinates, one usually starts from fatty alcohols or their ethylene oxide addition products, which are converted into the mono- or diesters in the first step using maleic acid or maleic acid anhydride.
  • the sulfosuccinic acid esters are obtained from this by adding hydrogen sulfite to the double bond of the maleic acid esters.
  • no catalysts are required for the preparation of the sulfosuccinates, but processes are also known in which the esterification is carried out under pressure in the presence of alkali metal carbonates [P 87 / 228.300].
  • the sulfosuccinates are particularly important because they have a particularly good foaming power compared to the diesters.
  • a disadvantage is their comparatively lower water solubility, which is generally compensated for by using ethoxylated fatty alcohols as starting materials.
  • aqueous solutions of sulfosuccinates based on conventional fatty alcohol polyglycol ethers are difficult to thicken by adding viscosity regulators, which makes it extremely difficult to assemble the products produced therewith.
  • the object of the invention was therefore to provide new sulfosuccinates whose aqueous solutions have improved thickenability.

  • the fatty alcohol polyethylene glycol ethers used as feedstocks can also be derived from addition products of ethylene oxide to technical fatty alcohol fractions, for example based on coconut oil or beef tallow.
  • Sulfosuccinic acid esters in particular monoesters derived from fatty alcohol polyethylene glycol ethers of the formula (I) in which R 1 is an alkyl radical having 12 to 18 carbon atoms and n is a number from 2 to 5, are distinguished by a particularly advantageous thickening behavior of their aqueous solutions and a stable base foam and are therefore preferred.
