Definitions

  • the present invention relates to coated detergent tablets, especially those adapted for use in washing machines, and to processes for making the coated detergent tablets.
  • GB-A-0 989 683 published on 22nd April 1965, discloses a process for preparing a particulate detergent from surfactants and inorganic salts; spraying on water-soluble silicate; and pressing the detergent particles into a solid form-retaining tablet.
  • a readily water-soluble organic film-forming polymer for example, polyvinyl alcohol
  • EP-A-0 002 293 published on 13th June 1979, discloses a tablet coating comprising hydrated salt such as acetate, metaborate, orthophosphate, tartrate, and sulphate.
  • EP-A-0 716 144 published on 12th June 1996, also discloses laundry detergent tablets with water-soluble coatings which may be organic polymers including acrylic/maleic co-polymer, polyethylene glycol, PVPVA, and sugar.
  • WO9518215 published on 6th July 1995, provides water-insoluble coatings for solid cast tablets.
  • the tablets are provided with hydrophobic coatings including wax, fatty acid, fatty acid amides, and polyethylene glycol.
  • the present invention provides a means by which tablets with a core which is formed by compressing a particulate material, the particulate material comprising surfactant and detergent builder, can be provided with a hard, thin, coating so that they can be stored, shipped and handled, but the coating is broken when the tablet is in the washing machine exposing the soft core which breaks up easily and rapidly, releasing the active ingredients into the wash solution.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a tablet which completely disintegrates and disperses in alkaline or surfactant-rich solutions such as the wash liquor.
  • the object of the invention is acheived by providing a coating comprising a dicarboxylic acid, preferably wherein the length of the carbon chain of the dicarboxylic acid is from C2 to C13.
  • the coating consists essentially of dicarboxylic acid.
  • Tablets to be coated in the present invention can be prepared simply by mixing the solid ingredients together and compressing the mixture in a conventional tablet press as used, for example, in the pharmaceutical industry.
  • Any liquid ingredients for example the surfactant or suds suppressor, can be incorporated in a conventional manner into the solid particulate ingredients.
  • the principal ingredients are used in particulate form.
  • the ingredients such as builder and surfactant can be spray-dried in a conventional manner and then compacted at a suitable pressure.
  • the detergent tablets can be made in any size or shape and can, if desired, be surface treated before coating, according to the present invention.
  • a surfactant and a builder which normally provides a substantial part of the cleaning power of the tablet.
  • builder is intended to mean all materials which tend to remove calcium ion from solution, either by ion exchange, complexation, sequestration or precipitation.
  • the particulate material used for making the tablet of this invention can be made by any particulation or granulation process.
  • An example of such a process is spray drying (in a co-current or counter current spray drying tower) which typically gives low bulk densities 600g/l or lower.
  • Particulate materials of higher density can be prepared by granulation and densification in a high shear batch mixer/granulator or by a continuous granulation and densification process (e.g. using Lodige® CB and/or Lodige® KM mixers).
  • Other suitable processes include fluid bed processes, compaction processes (e.g. roll compaction), extrusion, as well as any particulate material made by any chemical process like flocculation, crystallisation sentering, etc.
  • Individual particles can also be any other particle, granule, sphere or grain.
  • the particulate materials may be mixed together by any conventional means. Batch is suitable in, for example, a concrete mixer, Nauta mixer, ribbon mixer or any other. Alternatively the mixing process may be carried out continuously by metering each component by weight on to a moving belt, and blending them in one or more drum(s) or mixer(s). A liquid spray-on to the mix of particulate materials (e.g. non-ionic surfactants) may be carried out. Other liquid ingredients may also be sprayed on to the mix of particulate materials either separately or premixed. For example perfume and slurries of optical brighteners may be sprayed. A finely divided flow aid (dusting agent such as zeolites, carbonates, silicas) can be added to the particulate materials after spraying the non-ionic, preferably towards the end of the process, to make the mix less sticky.
  • a finely divided flow aid dusting agent such as zeolites, carbonates, silicas
  • the tablets may be manufactured by using any compacting process, such as tabletting, briquetting, or extrusion, preferably tabletting.
  • Suitable equipment includes a standard single stroke or a rotary press (such as Courtoy®, Korch®, Manesty®, or Bonals®).
  • the tablets prepared according to this invention preferably have a diameter of between 40mm and 50mm, and a weight between 25 and 60 g.
  • the compaction pressure used for preparing these tablets need not exceed 5000 kN/m 2 , preferably not exceed 3000 kN/m 2 , and most preferably not exceed 1000 kN/m 2 .
  • the tablets are then coated with dicarboxylic acid so that the tablet does not absorb moisture, or absorbs moisture at only a very slow rate.
  • the coating is also strong so that moderate mechanical shocks to which the tablets are subjected during handling, packing and shipping result in no more than very low levels of breakage or attrition.
  • the coating is preferably brittle so that the tablet breaks up when subjected to stronger mechanical shock.
  • the coating material is dissolved under alkaline conditions, or is readily emulsified by surfactants. This avoids the deposition of undissolved particles or lumps of coating material on the laundry load. This may be important when the more water-insoluble dicarboxylic acids are used.
  • Water solubility is measured following the test protocol of ASTM E1148-87 entitled, "Standard Test Method for Measurements of Aqueous Solubility".
  • Suitable coating materials are C2-C13 dicarboxylic acids.
  • Particularly suitable dicarboxylic acids are selected from the group consisting of oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, pimelic acid, suberic acid, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, undecanedioic acid, dodecanedioic acid, tridecanedioic acid and mixtures thereof.
  • the detergent tablets are prepared and in whatever from they are, they are then coated according to the present invention with a coating material having a melting point preferably of from 40 °C to 200 °C.
  • the coating can be applied in a number of ways. Two preferred coating methods are a) coating with a molten material and b) coating with a solution of the material. In a), the coating material is applied at a temperature above its melting point, and solidifies on the tablet. In b), the coating is applied as a solution, the solvent being dried to leave a coherent coating.
  • the substantially insoluble material can be applied to the tablet by, for example, spraying or dipping. Normally when the molten material is sprayed on to the tablet, it will rapidly solidify to form a coherent coating.
  • substantially insoluble materials having a melting point below 40 °C are not sufficiently solid at ambient temperatures and it has been found that materials having a melting point above about 200 °C are not practicable to use.
  • the materials melt in the range from 60 °C to 160 °C, more preferably from 70 °C to 120 °C.
  • melting point is meant the temperature at which the material when heated slowly in, for example, a capillary tube becomes a clear liquid.
  • a coating of any desired thickness can be applied according to the present invention.
  • the coating forms from 1% to 10%, preferably from 1.5% to 5%, of the tablet weight.
  • the tablet coatings of the present invention are very hard and provide extra strength to the tablet.
  • the fracture of the coating in the wash is improved by adding a disintegrant in the coating.
  • This disintegrant will swell once in contact with water and break the coating in small pieces. This will improve the dissolution of the coating in the wash solution.
  • the disintegrant is suspended in the coating melt at a level of up to 30%, preferably between 5 and 20%, and most preferably between 5 and 10% by weight. Possible disintegrants are described in Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients (1986).
