Definitions

  • the present invention relates to liquid self-thickened compositions for cleaning hard surfaces. More particularly, the present invention relates to stable acidic thickened liquid compositions typically comprising a source of active oxygen. These compositions find particular application in the cleaning of inclined hard-surfaces, such as toilet bowls and the like.
  • viscosity allows a more controlled handling, e.g., a more accurate dispensing of the product during use, as compared to a thinner product.
  • viscosity allows a better action of the product on inclined surfaces, such as toilets, bath tubs and the like, because viscosity prevents the product from running down inclined surfaces, like thinner liquids would.
  • viscosity is built up by a so-called self-thickening system as opposed to using a thickener compound for that specific purpose.
  • thickeners such as gums or polymers have at least one drawback that they affect the formula cost, while providing only one benefit, which is thickening. They do not participate to the actual cleaning of the surface and therefore represent “inert” materials. Also, some thickeners are detrimental to the physical and/or chemical stability of the products they are formulated in.
  • compositions known in the art that have the requisite viscosity characteristics.
  • most of the self-thickening surfactant systems known in the art whilst allowing to effectively increase the viscosity of liquid compositions, do have some disadvantages in use. Indeed, thickening surfactants like nonionic surfactants (nonyl phenol ethoxylates) or quaternary ammonium compounds have the disadvantage that they require to be used at high levels to achieve satisfactory viscosity, thus making their use expensive.
  • liquid self-thickened compositions especially liquid self-thickened acidic compositions, preferably comprising a source of active oxygen, having improved thickening properties at low total thickening surfactant level.
  • thickening surfactants show significant instability when formulated in liquid thickened compositions in the acidic pH range and typically in presence of a source of active oxygen, e.g., hydrogen peroxide, or a source thereof, like monopersulfate. This may also result in a loss of the total amount of active oxygen which would otherwise be available to perform bleaching action on the surface to be cleaned.
  • a source of active oxygen e.g., hydrogen peroxide, or a source thereof, like monopersulfate.
  • liquid self-thickened compositions especially liquid self-thickened acidic compositions typically comprising a source of active oxygen, which are physically and chemically stable for long storage periods.
  • a liquid composition preferably a liquid acidic composition typically comprising a source of active oxygen
  • a liquid acidic composition typically comprising a source of active oxygen
  • the present invention allows to use low level of total thickening surfactant to achieve a given viscosity.
  • a lower level of total thickening surfactants quaternary ammonium surfactants and C12-C18 alkyl and/or C12-C18 alkyl aryl sulphonate
  • quaternary ammonium surfactants and C12-C18 alkyl and/or C12-C18 alkyl aryl sulphonate is sufficient in the present invention, as compared to the level of quaternary ammonium surfactant which would otherwise be required to obtain the same thickening effect when used alone, in absence of any C12-C18 alkyl or C12-C18 alkyl aryl sulphonate, or as compared to the total level of quaternary ammonium surfactant and short chain alkyl or aryl sulphonate (e.g., xylene sulphonate) which would be required to obtain the same thickening.
  • the liquid thickened compositions according to the present invention exhibit excellent chemical and physical stability.
  • the decomposition of said source of active oxygen e.g. persulfate salt
  • the decomposition of said source of active oxygen is reduced, as compared to the same compositions but with other surfactant blends, like for instance alkylethoxylated alcohols, instead of said quaternary ammonium surfactant and C12-C18 alkyl/alkyl aryl sulphonate.
  • a further advantage of the present invention is that the liquid thickened compositions herein are transluscent, as opposed to clouded, and thus well accepted from a consumer view point. Also, the present invention allows to formulate compositions that are Newtonian. By “Newtonian” it is meant herein a composition which has the same viscosity whichever applied shear stress.
  • An additional benefit derived from said compositions is that they are low foaming, both in the sense of the amount of foam initially generated during use, as well as in terms of foam stability. This benefit adds to the ease of rinsing benefit already obtained with the "mechanistic" benefit derived from the viscosity profile of the composition. Yet another benefit of the present invention is that this thickening system leads to excellent spreading and clinging on wet surfaces.
  • compositions herein, and especially those acidic compositions typically comprising a source of active oxygen are efficient on various surfaces to clean various soils and stains.
  • preferred liquid thickened acidic compositions of the present invention when used to treat hard surfaces, especially toilet bowls, exhibit outstanding soil discoloration, soil solubilization and emulsification properties together with a germicidal action, this when used both in neat or diluted form.
  • compositions herein are less sensitive to the presence of perfumes, whereas high levels of perfume are known to have a general tendency to significantly decrease composition viscosity by changing micellar aggregation.

  • said compositions may be dispensed from a container neat onto said hard-surface, then diluted in water and left to act onto said surfaces for an effective period of time and then removed by rinsing or flushing.
  • the expression "treating" includes washing as the compositions used in the process according to the present invention comprise surfactants, optionally descaling limescale as said compositions may also be acidic, and optionally bleaching as said compositions may also comprise a source of active oxygen, preferably hydrogen peroxide and/or persulfate salts. Preferably the three treatments are performed.
  • compositions according to the present invention may be manufactured by adding the different ingredients in any order. However, the desired initial viscosity of an aqueous composition of the present invention is obtained immediately, when following a preferred mixing order for the incorporation of the different ingredients in said composition. Accordingly, the present invention further encompasses a process for the manufacture of the liquid thickened compositions of the present invention, wherein said process comprises the steps of:
  • compositions are made which comprise the listed ingredients in the listed proportions (weight %).
  • COMPOSITIONS (weight %) I II III IV V VI Curox® 4 4 - - - - Hydrogen peroxide - - 3 3 3 3 Sulfuric acid - - 6 6 6 6 6 Naphtalen di sulphonic acid 8 8 - - - - C16 trimethyl ammonium sulphate 2.3 2.5 3.1 2.9 2.7 2.7 Lauryl aryl suphonate 0.15 0.15 0.25 0.2 0.18 0.16 Hostapur SAS® - - - - - - - Perfume 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4 0.4
  • the initial viscosity of the above compositions were measured by a Carri-Med Rheomoter CLS 100 by TA instruments at fixed shear stress of 50 dyne/cm 2 at 20°C with a 4 cm diameter cone spindle.
  • 50 dyne/cm 2 as shear stress value is representative of a fluid flow occurring on an inclined surface when the product thickness on the surface is about 1 mm and the only external force is due to the gravity field, as in a toilet cleaning application.
  • compositions according to the present invention are translucent, Newtonian compositions that provide significant benefits in toilet soils cleaning both when used neat or diluted. Said compositions are stable over long periods of time. Indeed, these compositions have not more than 10% available oxygen loss after 1 month at room temperature.
