Definitions

  • the invention relates to an additive for use in detergents or cleaners, a process for its preparation and detergents or cleaners containing these additives.
  • Modern powder-form or granular detergents or cleaners are produced today, for example, by mixing and / or granulating additives and / or raw materials, certain proportions of the additives and raw materials also being liquid, for example as an aqueous solution or aqueous dispersion.
  • the solid additives can be obtained by spray drying. Granulation, roll compaction, extrusion or other compaction measures have been prepared. Also in the preparation of the additives, it is possible to use liquid organic substances, for example nonionic surfactants, or aqueous solutions or aqueous dispersions.
  • the essential constituents of detergents or cleaning agents include the surfactants.
  • Surfactants in particular anionic surfactants, are known to be usable both in aqueous form (as a paste) and in solid form (as a powder or additive).
  • anionic surfactants are alkylbenzenesulfonates and alkyl sulfates.
  • alkylbenzenesulfonates are important anionic surfactants with excellent washing performance, but which have the disadvantage that they have highly sticky properties, so that additives or detergents or cleaning agents with relatively high concentrations of alkylbenzenesulfonates, for example, additives having contents above 30 wt .-% alkylbenzenesulfonates , tend to stick and thus affect the flowability of the agents as well as the redissolution in aqueous liquor - especially if the agent additionally also have ethoxylated nonionic surfactants - tend to gelling.
  • detergents or cleaners are builders, which may be both inorganic and organic.
  • Inorganic builder substances such as zeolite A, which in recent years has been the preferred inorganic builder in detergents or cleaners, are incorporated into the detergents either as a (spray-dried) powder, aqueous stabilized dispersion or as a constituent of a solid, mostly granular additive
