Description
La présente invention concerne une préformulation "buider ou "cobuilder" biodégradable pour composition détergente, à base d'un mélange polyimide et silicate.The present invention relates to a preformulation "buider or" cobuilder " biodegradable for detergent composition, based on a polyimide and silicate mixture.
On entend par "builder" ou "cobuilder" tout constituant qui améliore les performances des agents de surface d'une composition détergente."Builder" or "cobuilder" means any constituent which improves the performance of surfactants of a detergent composition.
D'une manière générale un "builder" ou "cobuilder" peut agir de multiples façons au sein du milieu lessiviel. Il peut :
- assurer l'enlèvement des ions indésirables, notamment alcalino-terreux (calcium, magnésium), par séquestration ou précipitation, pour prévenir la précipitation des tensio-actifs anioniques,
- apporter une réserve d'alcalinité et de force ionique,
- maintenir en suspension les salissures extraites,
- empêcher les incrustations minérales du linge observées en cours de lavage.
- ensure the removal of unwanted ions, in particular alkaline earth ions (calcium, magnesium), by sequestration or precipitation, to prevent precipitation of anionic surfactants,
- provide a reserve of alkalinity and ionic strength,
- keep the extracted dirt in suspension,
- prevent mineral deposits from the laundry observed during washing.
Pendant très longtemps, les tripolyphosphates ont été les builders les plus fréquemment utilisés dans les compositions détergentes et les produits de lavage. Cependant, ils sont en partie responsables de l'eutrophisation des lacs et des eaux à écoulement lent lorsqu'ils ne sont pas suffisamment éliminés par les stations d'épuration des eaux ; aussi cherche-t-on à les remplacer partiellement ou totalement.For a very long time, tripolyphosphates have been the most frequently used in detergent compositions and detergents. However, they are partly responsible for the eutrophication of the lakes and waters slow flow when not sufficiently eliminated by treatment plants waters ; so we are looking to replace them partially or completely.
Les zéolithes seules ne peuvent remplacer les tripolyphosphates; elles doivent être renforcées dans leur action par d'autres additifs.Zeolites alone cannot replace tripolyphosphates; they must be reinforced in their action by other additives.
Des copolymères d'acide acrylique et d'anhydride maléique (ou leurs sels alcalins ou d'ammonium) ont été proposés (EP 25.551) comme inhibiteurs d'incrustation. Ils présentent toutefois l'inconvénient de ne pas être biodégradables en milieu naturel.Copolymers of acrylic acid and maleic anhydride (or their alkaline salts or ammonium) have been proposed (EP 25,551) as incrustation inhibitors. They have the disadvantage of not being biodegradable in a natural environment.
Pour répondre à des impératifs de biodégradabilité, il a été proposé d'employer à titre d'agent "builder" ou "cobuilder" pour composition détergente une nouvelle gamme de composés, des polymères peptidiques et plus précisément des polymères ou copolymères d'acides aminés.To meet the requirements of biodegradability, it has been proposed to use agent title "builder" or "cobuilder" for detergent composition a new range of compounds, peptide polymers and more specifically polymers or amino acid copolymers.
En particulier, les polyaspartates et polyglutamates de sodium, intéressants pour leur biodégradabilité élevée, témoignent d'une bonne activité builder ou co-builder ( US 4 428 749). Il a été démontré que c'est la forme chargée négativement de ces composés qui est la forme active dans la formulation détergente.In particular, sodium polyaspartates and polyglutamates, which are useful for their high biodegradability, testify to a good builder or co-builder activity (US 4,428,749). It has been shown to be the negatively charged form of these compounds which is the active form in the detergent formulation.
Toutefois, l'incorporation de ces composés sous leur forme native dans des compositions détergentes ne s'avère pas satisfaisante. Au terme d'un stockage prolongé, les composés subissent des agressions chimiques au contact des autres constituants de la formulation lessivielle, comme les agents oxydants et basiques, avec pour conséquence finale leur dégradation.However, the incorporation of these compounds in their native form in detergent compositions is not satisfactory. After storage compounds are subjected to chemical attack on contact with others constituents of the detergent formulation, such as oxidizing and basic agents, with as a final consequence their degradation.
Plus récemment, il a été proposé la mise en oeuvre d'un précurseur de ce nouveau type d'agent "builder", à savoir leur produit de polycondensation ( EP 511 037). Contrairement aux dérivés acides, les polyimides présentent l'avantage d'être stables en formulations détergentes pour des durées prolongées.More recently, it has been proposed to implement a precursor of this new type of "builder" agent, namely their polycondensation product (EP 511 037). Unlike acid derivatives, polyimides have the advantage of being stable in detergent formulations for extended durations.
Malheureusement, ces composés ne s'avèrent pas complètement satisfaisants sur un plan écologique, puisqu'en soit ils ne sont pas eux-mêmes biodégradables. En milieu détergent, c'est-à-dire en milieu aqueux alcalin, ils conduisent à une espèce biodégradable mais, en milieu neutre, ils demeurent sous une forme non hydrosoluble et donc non biodégradable.Unfortunately, these compounds do not prove to be completely satisfactory on an ecological plan, since in themselves they are not themselves biodegradable. In the middle detergent, i.e. in an alkaline aqueous medium, they lead to a species biodegradable but, in neutral medium, they remain in a non-water-soluble form and therefore not biodegradable.
La présente invention a précisément pour objet d'optimiser le caractère biodégradable de ce type de composé.The object of the present invention is precisely to optimize the character biodegradable from this type of compound.
Plus précisément, il a été mis au point selon l'invention une formulation particulière de celui-ci, telle que celui-ci satisfasse simultanément aux deux impératifs suivants: il demeure stable au sein de la formulation lessivielle et en milieu humide il conduit dès sa mise en contact avec un milieu aqueux de pH non alcalin à au moins une espèce hydrosoluble biodégradable et douée bien entendu d'une activité au sein de la formulation détergente. L'optimisation du caractère biodégradable n'est pas acquise aux dépens de la stabilité en formulation détergente ni de la génération subséquente de l'espèce active.More specifically, a particular formulation has been developed according to the invention of it, such that it simultaneously satisfies the following two imperatives: it remains stable in the detergent formulation and in a humid environment it brought into contact with an aqueous medium of non-alkaline pH in at least one species water-soluble biodegradable and naturally endowed with an activity within the detergent formulation. Optimization of the biodegradable character is not acquired for costs of stability in detergent formulation nor of the subsequent generation of the active species.
Par pH non alcalin, on entend désigner dans le cadre de la présente invention, un pH défavorable à l'hydrolyse du polyimide en ses sels hydrosolubles. Sont notamment couverts par cette définition les pH des milieux aqueux naturels, type eaux de rivière qui possèdent des valeurs proches de la neutralité.By non-alkaline pH is meant in the context of the present invention, a pH unfavorable to the hydrolysis of the polyimide to its water-soluble salts. Are notably covered by this definition the pH of natural aqueous media, such as river water which have values close to neutrality.
Plus particulièrement, la présente invention a pour objet un préformulation "builder" ou "cobuilder" pour composition détergente comprenant au moins un polymère polyimide en mélange avec au moins un silicate, caractérisée en ce qu'elle est susceptible de générer au moins une espèce polypeptidique hydrosoluble biodégradable lorsqu'elle entre en contact avec un milieu aqueux de pH non alcalin et en ce que le polyimide et le silicate y sont présents dans un rapport pondéral polyimide/silicate variant entre environ 40/60 et 55/45. More particularly, the subject of the present invention is a "builder" or "cobuilder" preformulation for a detergent composition comprising at least one polyimide polymer mixed with at least one silicate, characterized in that it is capable of generating at least one polypeptide species water-soluble biodegradable when it comes into contact with an aqueous medium of non-alkaline pH and in that the polyimide and the silicate are present therein in a weight ratio polyimide / silicate varying between approximately 40/60 and 55/45.
De manière inattendue, il a été mis en évidence que l'apport d'un silicate à un
polyimide et plus précisément leur mélange intime conduit à une préformulation de
comportement avantageux sur le plan de la biodégradabilité. Ce mélange des deux
composants se présente sous une forme pulvérulente, notamment sous forme de
cogranulés.
Son comportement peut s'expliciter comme suit : lorsque cette préformulation spécifique
de polymère polyimide entre en contact avec un taux d'humidité important, voire
rencontre un milieu aqueux non alcalin, on assiste localement au niveau des grains à un
abaissement de leur alcalinité qui induit la formation, à la surface du mélange et plus
particulièrement à la surface des cogranulés, d'une couche de silice ; avantageusement,
cette couche de silice en se constituant vient préserver le coeur des cogranulés
contenant du polyimide et du silicate n'ayant pas réagi ; de cette manière, grâce à cette
"coquille" de silice, on se réserve au niveau des polyimides une alcalinité suffisante,
générée par les silicates, pour rendre possible l'hydrolyse partielle ou totale dudit
polyimide en son ou ses sels hydrosolubles de polyaminoacides non contaminants pour
l'environnement.Unexpectedly, it has been demonstrated that the addition of a silicate to a polyimide and more precisely their intimate mixture leads to a preformulation of behavior which is advantageous in terms of biodegradability. This mixture of the two components is in powder form, in particular in the form of cogranules.
Its behavior can be explained as follows: when this specific pre-formulation of polyimide polymer comes into contact with a high level of humidity, or even encounters a non-alkaline aqueous medium, we witness locally at the level of the grains a lowering of their alkalinity which induces the formation, on the surface of the mixture and more particularly on the surface of the cogranules, of a layer of silica; advantageously, this layer of silica constituting preserves the core of the cogranules containing polyimide and unreacted silicate; in this way, thanks to this "shell" of silica, sufficient alkalinity is generated at the polyimides, generated by the silicates, to make possible the partial or total hydrolysis of said polyimide into its non-contaminating polyamino acid salt or salts. for the environment.
Ce résultat intéressant est d'autant plus surprenant que l'on aurait pu le croire irréalisable. En effet, il eut été possible que le polymère polyimide conduise de suite en ses sels hydrosolubles lors de son mélange intime avec le silicate, et plus particulièrement lorsque ce dernier se présente sous la forme d'une dispersion aqueuse concentrée. Dans cette hypothèse on se retrouvait avec une formulation détergente incluant directement les sels hydrosolubles de polyimide avec les problèmes inhérents de stabilité discutés ci-dessus. Or, de manière inattendue, il n'en est rien. On obtient à l'issue du mélange intime des deux composants, une pâte qui, séchée, conduit à une poudre dans laquelle le polyimide est présent sous sa forme d'origine.This interesting result is all the more surprising as one might have thought. impractical. Indeed, it would have been possible for the polyimide polymer to immediately lead to its water-soluble salts when it is intimately mixed with silicate, and more particularly when the latter is in the form of an aqueous dispersion concentrated. In this hypothesis we were left with a detergent formulation directly including water-soluble polyimide salts with inherent problems stability discussed above. However, unexpectedly, this is not the case. We get to the result of the intimate mixture of the two components, a paste which, dried, leads to powder in which the polyimide is present in its original form.
Par polymère polyimide, on entend désigner selon l'invention un biopolymère polyimide dont la densité de charge COO- est susceptible de s'accroítre dans le bain lessiviel.By polyimide polymer is meant according to the invention a polyimide biopolymer whose charge density COO - is likely to increase in the detergent bath.
A titre d'exemple de biopolymères polyimides pouvant être mis en oeuvre, on peut citer les polyimides dérivés de la polycondensation d'aminodiacides, notamment de l'acide aspartique ou glutamique ou des précurseurs desdits aminodiacides ; ces polymères se dissolvent dans l'eau à pH basique avec formation de fonctions COO- libres.By way of example of polyimide biopolymers which can be used, mention may be made of polyimides derived from the polycondensation of aminodiacides, in particular aspartic or glutamic acid or precursors of said aminodiacides; these polymers dissolve in water at basic pH with the formation of COO - free functions.
Ces polymères peuvent être aussi bien des homopolymères dérivés de racide aspartique ou glutamique, que des copolymères dérivés de racide aspartique et de l'acide glutamique en proportions quelconques, ou des copolymères dérivés de l'acide aspartique et/ou glutamique et d'aminoacides autres (par exemple jusqu'à 15% en poids, de préférence moins de 5% en poids, d'aminoacides autres).These polymers can be homopolymers derived from racide as well aspartic or glutamic, as copolymers derived from aspartic racide and glutamic acid in any proportions, or copolymers derived from the acid aspartic and / or glutamic and other amino acids (for example up to 15% in weight, preferably less than 5% by weight, of other amino acids).
Parmi les aminoacides copolymérisables, on peut citer la glycine, l'alanine, la valine, la leucine, l'isoleucine, la phénylalanine, la méthionine, la trypotophane, l'histidine, la proline, la lysine, l'arginine, la serine, la thréonine, la cystéine...Among the copolymerizable amino acids, there may be mentioned glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, phenylalanine, methionine, trypotophan, histidine, proline, lysine, arginine, serine, threonine, cysteine ...
Lesdits biopolymères polyimides peuvent présenter une masse moléculaire moyenne en poids de l'ordre de 2000 à 107 et généralement de l'ordre de 3.500 à 60.000.Said polyimide biopolymers can have a weight-average molecular mass of the order of 2000 to 10 7 and generally of the order of 3.500 to 60,000.
Ceux-ci, notamment les polyimides dérivés de l'acide aspartique ou glutamiques, peuvent être préparés par thermocondensation du ou desdits aminoacides en milieu sensiblement anhydre, comme décrit dans J.A.C.S., 80, 3361 (1958), J.Med.Chem. 16, 893 (1973), Polymer 23, 1237 (1982) ou dans le brevet américain n°3.052.655.These, in particular the polyimides derived from aspartic or glutamic acid, can be prepared by thermocondensation of said amino acid (s) in a substantially anhydrous medium, as described in JACS, 80 , 3361 (1958), J. Med. Chem. 16 , 893 (1973), Polymer 23 , 1237 (1982) or in U.S. Patent No. 3,052,655.
Lesdits polyimides présentent de préférence une densité de charge COO- nulle ; ils peuvent toutefois être partiellement hydrolysés (par ouverture de quelques cycles imides avec formation de carboxylates alcalins ou d'amonium).Said polyimides preferably have a COO charge density - zero; however, they can be partially hydrolyzed (by opening a few imide rings with the formation of alkali or ammonium carboxylates).
En ce qui concerne les silicates de métaux alcalins, sont utilisables de manière générale ceux déjà employés à titre d'adjuvants en formulation détergence.Regarding the alkali metal silicates, can be used general those already used as adjuvants in detergency formulation.
Toutefois, les silicates les plus avantageux dans cette application sont ceux présentant un rapport molaire SiO2/M2O compris entre 1,6 et 3,5. Ils sont commercialisés soit sous forme de solutions concentrées à 30-60% en poids environ d'extrait sec, soit sous forme de silicate en poudre atomisée et éventuellement compactée.However, the most advantageous silicates in this application are those having a SiO 2 / M 2 O molar ratio of between 1.6 and 3.5. They are sold either in the form of concentrated solutions at around 30-60% by weight of dry extract, or in the form of silicate powder, atomized and optionally compacted.

Une premiere préformulation "builder" A, selon l'invention, a été réalisée avec 150 g de PSI de l'exemple 1 et 320 g de solution de silicate de rapport 2 à 58 % d'extrait sec, soit un excès de silicate. Malaxé dans un broyeur HENRY ®, à température ambiante, le mélange poudre + liquide devient très vite une pâte puis passe par une étape liquide avant de donner une poudre collante. Cette poudre est alors passée dans une extrudeuse haute pression. Les cogranulés obtenus sont séchés au lit fluidisé. La composition des cogranulés déterminée par calcination à 950°C durant 3 h, est de 44 % en silicate, 35 % en PSI et 21 % d'eau. A first "builder" A preformulation, according to the invention, was carried out with 150 g of PSI from Example 1 and 320 g of silicate solution with a ratio of 2 to 58% of extract dry, or an excess of silicate. Mixed in a HENRY ® grinder, at temperature ambient, the powder + liquid mixture very quickly becomes a paste then goes through a liquid step before giving a sticky powder. This powder is then passed into a high pressure extruder. The cogranules obtained are dried in a fluidized bed. The composition of the cogranules determined by calcination at 950 ° C for 3 h, is 44% silicate, 35% PSI and 21% water.
Une seconde préformulation "builder" B a été préparée, selon le mode opératoire décrit en exemple 2, à partir de 50 g de PSI de l'exemple 1 et de 114,8 g de solution de silicate de rapport 2 à 54 % d'extrait sec, soit un excès de silicate. La poudre, obtenue à l'issue de la réaction, est séchée une nuit à l'air puis broyée dans un broyeur HENRY®. Après tamisage on récupère la coupe entre 800 et 200µm. La composition des cogranulés déterminée par calcination est de : 34 % de PSI ; 43 % de silicate sec ; 23 % d'eau. L'analyse chimique du carbone total et de la silice donne : 35 % de PSI ; 41 % de silicate sec ; 24 % d'eau.A second "builder" B preformulation was prepared, according to the operating mode described in example 2, starting from 50 g of PSI of example 1 and 114.8 g of solution of silicate with a ratio of 2 to 54% of dry extract, an excess of silicate. The powder, obtained at the outcome of the reaction is dried overnight in air and then ground in a HENRY® mill. After sieving, the section is recovered between 800 and 200 μm. The composition of cogranules determined by calcination is: 34% PSI; 43% dry silicate; 23 % water. Chemical analysis of total carbon and silica gives: 35% PSI; 41% dry silicate; 24% water.
Une troisième préformulation "builder" C a été préparée avec 105 g de carbonate de sodium, 233,5 g de solution de silicate de sodium à 45% d'extrait sec et 290 g de PSI de l'exemple 1. Le carbonate et le PSI sont agités durant 5 minutes dans un mélangeur LODIGE®. On ajoute par petits filets le silicate et l'on continue à mélanger jusqu'à l'obtention d'une poudre humide et homogène.

The product is dried in a cold fluid bed first then at 60/70 ° C. The carbonates / carbonates + silicates ratio is 1/2.
Les performances lessivielles des préformulations préparées selon les exemples précédents ont été appréciées après incorporation de chacune de ces préformulation dans la composition de poudre à laver le linge figurant au tableau I.The washing performance of the preformulations prepared according to the examples precedents were appreciated after incorporation of each of these preformulations in the composition of the washing powder shown in table I.
A titre comparatif, les exemples présentés ci-après rendent également compte des
performances de trois lessives témoins, l'une sans agent builder quelconque, la
seconde incorporant du SOKALAN CP5 et la troisième du polyaspartate de sodium
PAsp Na (préparé par hydrolyse basique du polysuccinimide décrit en exemple 1).
L'incrustation est évaluée par passage en lave-linge de textiles de références : coton testfabric 405 et coton/polyamide krefeld 12A. Après 20 cycles de lavages à 75°C suivis de séchages, les différents échantillons sont brûlés à 950°C durant 3 heures, l'incrustation minérale est calculée à partir du taux de cendres exprimé par rapport à celui obtenu sans additif.The inlay is evaluated by washing reference textiles in the washing machine: cotton testfabric 405 and cotton / polyamide krefeld 12A. After 20 wash cycles at 75 ° C followed by drying, the different samples are burned at 950 ° C for 3 hours, the mineral inlay is calculated from the ash rate expressed in relation to that obtained without additive.
Pour apprécier la stabilité au cours du temps de l'activité anti-incrustation des
builders testés, les essais ont été réalisés à deux temps, dès la formulation de la poudre
lessivielle et après stockage de celle-ci pendant 1 mois à 40°C.
Après stockage 1 mois à 40°C, le polyaspartate de sodium perd toute activité alors que le builder B reste encore efficace après 2 mois.After storage for 1 month at 40 ° C, the sodium polyaspartate loses all activity then that builder B remains effective after 2 months.
Pour simuler différents traitements que peuvent subir des matières premières pour
la détergence, les produits sont stockés à 56 % et 90 % d'humidité relative à 20°C.
Une observation visuelle est effectuée. Elle consiste à apprécier le degré de mottage de
la poudre lessivielle après stockage. Pour les essais réalisés avec un taux d'humidité de
56%, le degré de mottage est apprécié en fonction de la coulabilité de la poudre et pour
ceux effectués avec un taux d'humidité de 90%, c'est le degré d'humidité de cette
poudre qui sert de référence.
On note que le builder A est moins sensible à l'humidité que le CP5 ou le polyaspartate de sodium. Il est très bon sous 56 % d'humidité relative et reste meilleur que les deux autres sous 90 % d'humidité relative.Note that builder A is less sensitive to humidity than CP5 or sodium polyaspartate. It is very good under 56% relative humidity and remains better than the other two at 90% relative humidity.
