Definitions

  • Bleaches that release active oxygen are an essential ingredient modern washing and cleaning agents. Your main job is distance stubborn stains such as tea, coffee, red wine or fruit juices from textile fibers or solid surfaces. This is done by oxidative destruction of the chromophoric system; adhering microorganisms are killed at the same time and neutralizes odors.
  • Hydrogen peroxide organic or inorganic peracid used.
  • powdered products is used as a source for active oxygen mostly used a persalt.
  • Typical examples are Sodium perborates or percarbonates or urea adducts.
  • bleach activators are often added.
  • examples for this are Tetraacetylethylenediamine (TAED), diacetyldioxohexahydrotriazine (DADHT), Pentaacetylglycose (PAG), benzoyloxybenzenesulfonate (BOBS) and Nonanoyloxybenzenesulfonate (NOBS).
  • TAED Tetraacetylethylenediamine
  • DADHT diacetyldioxohexahydrotriazine
  • PAG Pentaacetylglycose
  • BBS benzoyloxybenzenesulfonate
  • NOBS Nonanoyloxybenzenesulfonate
  • transition metals are free or complex Form catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxides.
  • the effectiveness of is unsatisfactory in most cases.
  • the addition of metal salts leads to catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, however, no bleaching effect is observed. Most is this is associated with damage to the textile fabric.
  • the appearance of free Transition metals during the washing and cleaning process is therefore undesirable. If, on the other hand, the metal salt is used in a complex form, the corresponding complex during storage and under Conditions of use to be stable to hydrolysis and oxidation Suppress side effects.
  • EP A 458 397 and 458 398 describes the use of macrocyclic Polyamines as complex ligands in multinuclear, oxygen-bridged Manganese complexes. In combination with oxidizing agents, these complexes show especially on tea stains, good bleaching properties. As a disadvantage however, the difficult to access complex ligand of the triazacyclononane type has an effect out. It is only in a multi-stage, by-product-rich manufacturing process accessible. Similar complexes are described in EP 544 519, again the Synthesis of the complex ligand is very complex and difficult on an industrial scale realize.
  • anion A are Cl - , Br - , J - , NO 3 - , ClO 4 - , NCS - , PF 6 - , RSO 3 - , RSO 4 - , SO 4 2- , BPh 4 - , OAc - .
  • Preferred anions are PF 6 - , ClO 4 - , tosylate.
  • the ligands of the formula II contained in these manganese complex salts are prepared by reacting 2- (chloromethyl) pyridinium chloride with an alkylenediamine in the presence of a phase transfer catalyst (see Synthesis, June 1992, p. 539-540) or in an analogous manner for the substituted other ligands of the formula II.
  • the manganese complex salts of the formula I are prepared in accordance with the information in Inorg. Chem. 1989, 28, 3606-3608, by oxidizing an aqueous solution containing MnCl 2 and the ligand with H 2 O 2 or analogously to that in Inorg. Chem. 1994, 33, 4105-4111 described method, in which the oxidation is carried out with ammonium peroxodisulfate.
  • the metal complexes can be either pre-washed and Detergent added or ligand and during the washing process Transition metal can be generated in situ.
  • These complex salts have catalytic properties and are capable of Bleaching performance of peracids, persalts or hydrogen peroxide in washing and To significantly increase the cleaning process.
  • the bleaching catalysts are in Combination with an oxidizing agent used.
  • Oxidizing agents that can be used are hydrogen peroxide, Alkali metal perborates, percarbonates, perphosphates or persulfates.
  • the catalysts are used in powdered products be, sodium perborate mono- or tetrahydrate, caroate in the form of the triple salt and sodium percarbonate, the latter in particular in coated form.
  • This Compounds can either with the catalysts alone or according to one preferred embodiment, additionally together with a bleach activator be used. This extends the range of applications and the germicidal properties of the formulation enhanced.
  • Bleach activators are known from numerous patent applications. Examples for this are reactive esters and amides as in GB 836,988, 864,798, 907,356, 1,003,310 and 1,519,351; EP 284,292, 331,229, 303,520, 185,522, 174,132, 120,591 and US 1,246,339, 3,332,882, 4,128,494, 4,412,934, 4,675,393, 4,751,015 and 4,397,757.
  • Tetraacetylethylenediamine is particularly preferred, Nonanoyloxibenzenesulfonate, benzoyloxibenzenesulfonate, nonanoyl and Benzoylcaprolactam, isatoic, maleic, succinic and citric anhydrides and acylated sugar or sugar derivatives, in addition alkyl or aryl nitriles.
  • peroxibenzoic acid and substituted derivatives Typical representatives are peroxibenzoic acid and substituted derivatives, aliphatic mono- and dicarboxylic acids such as pemonanoic acid, perlauric acid, 1,9-diperoxiazeldic acid and 1,12-dodecanediperic acid.
  • N, N'-phthaloylaminoperoxycarboxylic acids such as N, N'-phthaloylaminoperoxyhexanoic acid (PAP), 6-octylamino-6-oxoperoxihexanoic acid, monoperoxiphthalic acid and their Salts, 2-alkylperoxy-1,4-butanedioic acids or 4,4'-sulphonylbisperoxybenzoic acid.
  • composition of the bleach system according to the invention can vary widely Limits fluctuate and are generally between 0.0005 and 2% by weight, preferably 0.001 to 0.5% by weight of the bleaching catalyst described and 1 to 99.9995%, preferably 5 to 99.999% of an oxidizing agent from the group inorganic or organic peracids or salts, and optionally 0 to 70%, preferably 10 to 60% of a bleach activator.
  • the bleaching systems according to the invention are used in heavy-duty detergents, Multi-component detergents (modular systems), stain salts, Stain pretreatment agents, dishwasher detergents, cleaning agents for hard surfaces, disinfectants, and denture cleaners. Beside the bleach the catalysts also take on the function of dye transfer inhibitors. Usually the catalysts are in granular form for washing and Detergent added. Inorganic pelletizers can be used Salts such as sodium sulfate, chloride, phosphate or silicates can be used. In a preferred application form, they are incorporated into the activator granules.
  • granulation can be inorganic or organic auxiliaries are used, film-forming materials are preferred such as surfactants, fatty acids, celulose derivatives, or polymers.
  • the granules can additionally be provided with a coating, which on the one hand ensures their storage stability increases and interactions with other detergent ingredients during the Storage can be prevented, but also their release kinetics can be influenced.
  • the bleach system according to the invention can be used in detergents and cleaning agents in the form of a powder or as granules.
  • the detergents and cleaning agents contain usually still surface-active compounds such as anionic, non-ionic, zwitterionic, amphoteric or cationic surfactants, builders, Enzymes and additives.
