Description

Acyloxialkansulfonate sind anionische Tenside, die vor allem in festen Reinigungsmitteln wie beispielsweise in Stückseifen, eingesetzt werden. Die Herstellung dieser Tenside erfolgt üblicherweise nach dem Verfahren der sogenannten Direktveresterung durch Reaktion von Natrium-isethionat mit einem Überschuß einer freien Fettsäure. Bei dieser Reaktion steigt die Viskosität des Reaktionsgemisches mit zunehmender Veresterung stark an. Es hat sich daher als notwendig erwiesen, sogenannte Konsistenzregler zuzugeben, damit die hochviskose Reaktionsmasse noch ausreichend rührbar bleibt. Als derartige Konsistenzregler sind unter anderem Paraffine (EP-A-0 246 471) und freie Fettsäuren (WO 94/26866) bekannt.Acyloxyalkanesulfonates are anionic surfactants, which are mainly used in solid cleaning agents such as bar soaps. These surfactants are usually prepared by the process of so-called direct esterification by reacting sodium isethionate with an excess of a free fatty acid. In this reaction, the viscosity of the reaction mixture increases sharply with increasing esterification. It has therefore proven necessary to add so-called consistency regulators so that the highly viscous reaction mass remains sufficiently stirrable. Paraffins (EP-A-0 246 471) and free fatty acids (WO 94/26866) are known as such consistency regulators.

Auch die Verwendung von Fettsäureestern als Konsistenzregler ist bereits bekannt (EP-A-0 182 017). Gemäß dem dort beschriebenen Verfahren wird der Konsistenzregler jedoch nach Abschluß der Veresterungsreaktion so weit wie möglich abdestilliert und das Endprodukt ist im wesentlichen frei von Fettsäureestern. EP-A-0 262 420 beschreibt ebenfalls die Verwendung von Fettsäureestern als Konsistenzregler, die in diesem Fall jedoch im Endprodukt verbleiben können. Als Fettsäureester kommen hier nur solche in Frage, die sich von Alkoholen mit mindestens drei C-Atomen herleiten.The use of fatty acid esters as consistency regulators is already known (EP-A-0 182 017). According to the process described there, however, the consistency regulator is distilled as far as possible after the esterification reaction has ended and the end product is essentially free of fatty acid esters. EP-A-0 262 420 also describes the use of fatty acid esters as consistency regulators, but in this case they can remain in the end product. Only fatty acid esters that come from alcohols with at least three carbon atoms are suitable as fatty acid esters.

Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung sind Tensidmischungen bestehend im wesentlichen aus Acyloxialkansulfonat, Fettsäure und Fettsäure-C1-C2-alkylester, wobei der Gehalt an Fettsäure-C1-C2-alkylester in der Tensidmischung 0,1 bis 10 Gew.-%, bezogen auf den Gehalt an Acyloxialkansulfonat, beträgt.The present invention relates to surfactant mixtures consisting essentially of acyloxyalkanesulfonate, fatty acid and fatty acid C 1 -C 2 alkyl ester, the content of fatty acid C 1 -C 2 alkyl ester in the surfactant mixture being 0.1 to 10% by weight, based on the content of acyloxyalkanesulfonate.

Die in den erfindungsgemäßen Tensidmischungen enthaltenen Acyloxialkansulfonate haben vorzugsweise die Formel

        R1COOR2SO3M

worin R1 C5-C31-Alkyl oder C5-C31-Alkenyl, R2 C2-C4-Alkylen oder C2-C4-Alkenylen, vorzugsweise C2-Alkylen, und M ein Alkalimetall-, Erdalkalimetall-, Ammonium- oder substituiertes Ammonium-Ion bedeutet. Die Alkyl- und Alkenyl-Gruppen R1 können geradkettig oder verzweigt sein. Die Gruppe R1CO-leitet sich ab von Fettsäuren wie beispielsweise Capronsäure, Caprinsäure, Laurinsäure, Myristinsäure, Stearinsäure, Arachinsäure, Ölsäure, Linolsäure, Linolensäure, Cocosfettsäure und Talgfettsäure sowie Mischungen davon. R2 ist bevorzugt -CH2CH2-.
The acyloxyalkanesulfonates contained in the surfactant mixtures according to the invention preferably have the formula

R 1 COOR 2 SO 3 M

wherein R 1 is C 5 -C 31 alkyl or C 5 -C 31 alkenyl, R 2 C 2 -C 4 alkylene or C 2 -C 4 alkenylene, preferably C 2 alkylene, and M is an alkali metal, alkaline earth metal -, Ammonium or substituted ammonium ion means. The alkyl and alkenyl groups R 1 can be straight-chain or branched. The group R 1 CO is derived from fatty acids such as, for example, caproic acid, capric acid, lauric acid, myristic acid, stearic acid, arachic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, coconut fatty acid and tallow fatty acid and mixtures thereof. R 2 is preferably -CH 2 CH 2 -.

Die Herstellung dieser Acyloxialkansulfonate erfolgt nach an sich bekannten Verfahren durch Veresterung von mindestens einer Fettsäure mit mindestens einem Hydroxialkansulfonat (Direktveresterung). Ein solches Verfahren ist zum Beispiel in EP-A-0 585 071 (US-A-5 384 421) beschrieben. Dabei wird ein Überschuß an Fettsäure und das Salz der Hydroxialkansulfonsäure in Gegenwart eines Veresterungskatalysators bei einer Temperatur von 180 bis 240°C umgesetzt unter gleichzeitiger Entfernung von vorhandenem Wasser.These acyloxyalkanesulfonates are prepared by processes known per se by esterification of at least one fatty acid with at least one hydroxyalkanesulfonate (direct esterification). Such a method is described for example in EP-A-0 585 071 (US-A-5 384 421). An excess of fatty acid and the salt of the hydroxyalkanesulfonic acid are reacted in the presence of an esterification catalyst at a temperature of 180 to 240 ° C. with the simultaneous removal of water present.

Nach Beendigung der Veresterung wird der Überschuß an freier Fettsäure zu einem mehr oder weniger großen Teil abdestilliert. In der Praxis nimmt man bevorzugt Cocosfettsäure zur Veresterung und demzufolge verbleibt nach der Veresterung noch überschüssige freie Cocosfettsäure im Endprodukt. Bedingt durch den Anteil niederer Fettsäuren weist jedoch die Cocosfettsäure einen unangenehmen Geruch auf, so daß es notwendig ist, die Cocosfettsäure vollständig zu entfernen. Man arbeitet deshalb bevorzugt in der Weise, daß man nach Beendigung der Reaktion eine zweite Fettsäure zusetzt, wie z.B. Stearinsäure, die einen höheren Siedepunkt als die Cocosfettsäure aufweist, und destilliert dann die niedriger siedende unerwünschte freie Cocosfettsäure ab. Die Anwesenheit freier Fettsäure im Endprodukt ist deshalb erwünscht, weil das Gemisch aus Fettsäure und Acyloxialkansulfonat eine bessere Konsistenz hat und sich besser verarbeiten läßt als das Acyloxialkansulfonat allein. Die Menge an verbleibender Fettsäure beträgt im allgemeinen 1 bis 50 Gew.-%, bezogen auf den Gehalt an Acyloxialkansulfonat. Nach dem Abdestillierten der niedriger siedenden Fettsäure erfolgt dann die Zugabe des Fettsäure-C1-C2-alkylesters.After the esterification has ended, the excess of free fatty acid is distilled off to a greater or lesser extent. In practice, preference is given to using coconut fatty acid for the esterification, and consequently excess free coconut fatty acid remains in the end product after the esterification. However, due to the proportion of lower fatty acids, the coconut fatty acid has an unpleasant smell, so that it is necessary to remove the coconut fatty acid completely. It is therefore preferred to work in such a way that a second fatty acid, such as stearic acid, which has a higher boiling point than coconut fatty acid, is added after the reaction has ended. and then distills off the lower boiling unwanted free coconut fatty acid. The presence of free fatty acid in the end product is desirable because the mixture of fatty acid and acyloxyalkanesulfonate has a better consistency and is easier to process than the acyloxyalkanesulfonate alone. The amount of remaining fatty acid is generally 1 to 50 wt .-%, based on the content of acyloxyalkanesulfonate. After the lower-boiling fatty acid has been distilled off, the fatty acid C 1 -C 2 -alkyl ester is then added.

Nach einer Variante dieses Verfahrens kann man auf die Zugabe einer zweiten Fettsäure verzichten und destilliert den Überschuß an freier Fettsäure im Dünnschichtverdampfer bei ca. 250 bis 260°C praktisch vollkommen aus dem Reaktionsgemisch ab. Hieran anschließend erfolgt dann die Zugabe des Fettsäure-C1-C2-alkylesters.According to a variant of this process, the addition of a second fatty acid can be dispensed with and the excess of free fatty acid is distilled practically completely from the reaction mixture in a thin-film evaporator at about 250 to 260 ° C. This is followed by the addition of the fatty acid C 1 -C 2 alkyl ester.

Als Fettsäure-C1-C2-alkylester kommen vor allem die Methylester in Frage, der Fettsäurerest leitet sich im wesentlichen ab von Fettsäuren mit C5-C31-, vorzugsweise C8-C16-Alkenylgruppen. Die Menge an Fettsäurealkylester beträgt 0,1 bis 10, vorzugsweise 0,5 bis 5 Gew.-%, bezogen auf den Anteil an Acyloxialkansulfonat. Die Zugabe des Fettsäurealkylesters erfolgt, indem man das feste Reaktionsprodukt mit dem Fettsäurealkylester in geeigneten Mischvorrichtungen solange mischt, beispielsweise in einem Kneter, bis die Mischung homogen ist. Man kann den Fettsäurealkylester auch dem fertigen Reaktionsprodukt in der flüssigen Schmelze, d.h. vor dem Abkühlen zufügen oder das bereits abgekühlte Produkt wieder aufschmelzen und dann mit dem Fettsäurealkylester vermischen. In den beiden letzten Fällen erfolgt die endgültige Konfektionierung üblicherweise mit Hilfe einer Schuppenwalze oder eines Kühlbandes.The fatty acid C 1 -C 2 alkyl esters are primarily the methyl esters; the fatty acid residue is essentially derived from fatty acids with C 5 -C 31 , preferably C 8 -C 16 alkenyl groups. The amount of fatty acid alkyl ester is 0.1 to 10, preferably 0.5 to 5 wt .-%, based on the proportion of acyloxyalkanesulfonate. The fatty acid alkyl ester is added by mixing the solid reaction product with the fatty acid alkyl ester in suitable mixing devices, for example in a kneader, until the mixture is homogeneous. The fatty acid alkyl ester can also be added to the finished reaction product in the liquid melt, ie before cooling, or the already cooled product can be melted again and then mixed with the fatty acid alkyl ester. In the latter two cases, the final assembly is usually carried out using a scale roller or a cooling belt.

Das Reaktionsprodukt, das bei der Umsetzung von Fettsäure und Isethionat anfällt, enthält in Abhängigkeit von den jeweiligen Herstellbedingungen üblicherweise ca. 50 bis 99 Gew.-% an Acyloxialkansulfonat. Der Rest besteht im wesentlichen aus freier Fettsäure. Wie oben dargelegt, kann man auch die freie Fettsäure praktisch vollständig aus dem Reaktionsgmeisch abdestillieren und erhält somit Produkte, die im wesentlichen frei von Fettsäure sind. Die so erhaltenen erfindungsgemäßen Tensidmischungen werden in üblicher Weise zu Stückseifen weiterverarbeitet.The reaction product that is obtained in the reaction of fatty acid and isethionate contains, depending on the respective production conditions usually about 50 to 99% by weight of acyloxyalkanesulfonate. The rest consists essentially of free fatty acid. As stated above, the free fatty acid can also be almost completely distilled off from the reaction mixture and thus products which are essentially free of fatty acid are obtained. The surfactant mixtures according to the invention obtained in this way are processed further in the customary manner to bar soaps.
