Definitions

  • the invention relates to mixtures of alkoxylates as foam suppressant and its use in Cleaning liquors.
  • nonionic surfactants foam suppressing (foam suppressing) agents in aqueous Use cleaning liquors.
  • foam suppressing agents foam suppressing agents
  • These are in particular Addition products of ethylene oxide and / or propylene oxide Amines, longer-chain fatty alcohols or alkylphenols, Polyglycol ether formals or acetals or Block copolymers of ethylene and propylene oxide.
  • Such surfactant systems can be modified appropriately Ethylene oxide and propylene oxide proportions to the lowest possible Foam tendency and increased cleaning effect set be, an excess weight of propylene oxide the former Property, an excess weight of ethylene oxide the latter Property favors.
  • such represents Setting these properties is always a compromise and it would be desirable to have more of one property received without having to give up shares in the other.
  • In machine cleaning processes for bottles, dishes and the like in the industrial field which under high mechanical movement, is for a trouble-free Operation - as mentioned above - especially low foam Cleaning liquors (cleaning baths) required.
  • WO 91/09925 and WO 92/14808 are mixtures of alkoxylates as foam suppressants the mechanical cleaning of hard surfaces described.
  • the agent described in WO 91/09925 exists essentially from at least one fatty alcohol ethoxylate with 2 to 12 ethylene oxide units and at least one Fatty alcohol ethoxylate propoxylate with 2 to 10 ethylene oxide units and 2 to 8 propylene oxide units in Weight ratio of 10: 1 to 1:10 and that according to WO 92/14808 from 2 fatty alcohol ethoxylate propoxylates in Weight ratio of 10:90 to 90:10, one being Fatty alkyl radical 8 to 18 carbon atoms and the other 10 to Has 20 C atoms, with the proviso that the two Fatty alkyl residues in the average number of carbon atoms differ by at least 0.5. These too Leave fatty alcohol alkoxylates alone based mixtures still to be desired, especially with regard to foam behavior left.
  • the alkyl radicals and alkenyl radicals, R 1 and R 2 can be straight or branched, with preference being given to straight.
  • the alkenyl radicals preferably have 1 to 3 double bonds.
  • the numbers given for x, y and m plus n are statistical averages (average values), i.e. x, y, m and n can each be an integer or fractional number.
  • Component A) is therefore a reaction product of a fatty alcohol with first x mol ethylene oxide and then y mol propylene oxide, which can be of the type -CH 2 -CH (CH 3 ) O- or -CH (CH 3 ) -CH 2 O- , the latter being preferred.
  • Component B) is a fatty amine (primary amine) with the specified alkyl or alkenyl groups or preferably a reaction product of such a fatty amine with m plus n mol of ethylene oxide.
  • the fatty amine ethoxylates according to formula II are therefore preferred as component B).
  • alkyl and alkenyl radicals in formulas I and II are n-hexyl, n-heptyl, n-octyl, 2-ethylhexyl, iso-nonyl, n-decyl, iso-decyl, n-dodecyl, stearyl, n-eikosyl, Oleyl, cocoalkyl and tallow alkyl as well as alkyl or alkenyl mixtures, for example a mixture of C 12 alkyl to C 14 alkyl (C 12/14 ). All of the compounds according to component A) and B) are known and commercially available.
  • the production of the foam-suppressant according to the invention Means are made simply by mixing the Components A) and B) and optionally further expedient components and additives at one temperature from 15 to 50 ° C, preferably 20 to 30 ° C, and advantageously with stirring.
  • the mixtures according to the invention can be used in undiluted form Form, that is as such or, for example, for the purpose of better Dosage in the form of aqueous concentrates used are, optionally with the addition of an organic Solvent.
  • components A) and B) also added separately to the aqueous cleaning liquor become.
  • the application concentration in the aqueous liquors is advantageously 0.05 to 10 g of the mixture according to the invention per liter Cleaning liquor, preferably at 0.1 to 2 g per liter.
  • the application concentrations mentioned are non-critical Information, since the amount varies to a certain extent according to Art the surface to be cleaned and the type and extent of the Impurities.
  • the invention Mixtures of surfactants and other additives Production of customary formulations added become. These are, for example, dyes, fragrances, Corrosion inhibitors and disinfectants.
  • the known builders that optionally are complexing agents at the same time.
  • the condensed phosphates such as tripolyphosphates and Pentasodium triphosphate
  • the complexing Aminopolycarboxylic acids and their salts such as the Alkali salts of nitrilotriacetic acid and Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid
  • the complexing Hydroxycarboxylic acids and polymeric carboxylic acids such as Citric acid, tartaric acid and the like.
  • builders polyphosphonic acid salts, such as the alkali salts of aminophosphonic acid.
  • builders can also such as silicates, for example sodium metasilicate, carbonates, Bicarbonates, borates and citrates can be added.
  • the additives according to the invention can be used with the aid of such additives Surfactant mixtures are optionally converted into powder form and are used in this form.
  • the mixtures according to the invention are characterized by a high foam suppressing effect. You have one extremely low tendency to foam and tendency to foam both at low and at elevated temperatures (for Example in the range from 15 to 80 ° C) and also at a very strong fleet movement and presence foam-promoting soiling such as protein, milk, beer, Lemonade, glue or other adhesives and the like.
  • the Mixtures according to the invention also have a high Cleaning effect and a high dirt absorption capacity. This latter property allows long service life in the system until it is refilled without impairment the cleaning effect. Your good network assets and Drainage behavior enables quick dirt removal and thus a high throughput of items to be cleaned. Likewise the freedom from stains and streaks as well as high gloss of the cleaned good guaranteed.
  • the invention Mixtures are also resistant to alkali and acids and together with these they have a long shelf life.
  • the surfactant mixtures according to the invention are suitable for Foam suppression in general in cleaning liquors.
  • she are particularly suitable for alkaline fleets mechanical cleaning of hard surfaces, for example for fleets in household dishwashers and in commercial cleaning equipment. They are particularly suitable in the case of industrial cleaning systems for hard Surfaces such as crockery and bottle rinsing systems with aqueous alkaline liquors under high mechanical Fleet movements work in continuous operation, the pH values ⁇ 10 or ⁇ 12 (highly alkaline Fleets).
  • cleaning liquors essentially consist of 95 to 99 wt .-% water and 1 to 5 wt .-% sodium and / or Potassium hydroxide.
  • the agent according to the invention is also suitable for aqueous acid cleaning liquors, which are known to essentially from 50 to 80 wt .-% water and 20 to 50% by weight of preferably phosphoric acid or sulfuric acid consist.
  • the components given in the examples and comparative examples were mixed together at room temperature with stirring.
  • the mixtures according to the invention and mixtures of the prior art obtained in this way were tested for foam behavior.
  • 0.3 g of the mixture was dissolved in one liter of deionized water. 200 ml of this solution were added to the 1000 ml measuring cylinder and beaten 30 times with the perforated beating disc.
  • the resulting foam height in the measuring cylinder expressed in milliliters, represents the foam value of the mixture.
  • the mixtures according to the invention have a unexpectedly low foam level.
  • the invention Mixtures are due to their extremely low foam levels and their other advantageous properties excellent Additives, in particular, to cleaning liquors for cleaning of hard surfaces.
