Abstract

The invention relates to detergents for universal and special operations, consisting of three basic modules, one anion module which contains up to 5-15 wt.% alkyl (C12) benzene sulphonate dissolved in water, one non-ionic module which has up to 10-20 wt.% fatty alcohol ethoxylate, up to 5-10 wt.% fatty alcohol alkoxylate, 0-0.2 wt.% complexing agent dissolved in demineralised water, and a solubilizer module of 45-100 wt.% dipropylene glycol and 0-55 wt.% diethanolamine or triethanolamine. The proportion of these basic modules amounts to at least 96 % of the concentrates used and/or the active substances contained in the cleaning solution, and is completed to 100 % by the addition of small amounts of specific active substances, such as anti-corrosives and/or fragrance. Due to the modular structure of the products, many possibilities exist for their universal use in households and in trade, as well as for the specific applications of surface cleaning of metals and plastics, and in the cleaning of jewellery and gems. The products contain a small number of substances, are easy to produce, and, because of the selection of materials, correspond to the best possible criteria for environmental compatibility and biodegradability.

Anionmodul, nichtionisches Modul und Lösevermittlermodul werden wie in Beispiel 1 beschrieben hergestellt. 27 - 35 Gew.% Anionmodul, 55 - 63 Gew.% nichtionisches Modul, 9,8 - 9,95 Gew.% Lösevermittlermodul sowie 0,05 - 0,2 Gew.% eines Antikorrosivums werden gemischt und mit demineralisiertem Wasser auf 100 Gew.% ergänzt. Dieses Konzentrat dient zur Reinigung von metallischen Oberflächen ( auch Aluminium). Durch den eingebauten Korrosionsinhibitor ist das Konzentrat auch in warmen ( pH-neutralen) Metallbädern einsetzbar.Example 2. Anion module, nonionic module and solubilizer module are produced as described in Example 1. 27-35% by weight of anion module, 55-63% by weight of nonionic module, 9.8-9.95% by weight of solubilizer module and 0.05-0.2% by weight of an anti-corrosive are mixed and made up to 100% with demineralized water .% added. This concentrate is used to clean metallic surfaces (including aluminum). Thanks to the built-in corrosion inhibitor, the concentrate can also be used in warm (pH-neutral) metal baths.
Die Zubereitung der Reinigungslösung ist von der jeweiligen Anwendung abhängig. Bei der Anwendung als Kaltreiniger wird 1 Teil Konzentrat in 1 , 2 oder 4 Teile Wasser eingerührt ( für öl- und fetthaltige Verunreinigungen, Konzentration abhängig vom Grad der Verschmutzung), bei der Anwendung als Warmreiniger wird 1 Teil Konzentrat in 4 - 19 Teile Wasser eingerührt. Die auf diese Weise zubereitete Reinigungslösung wird auf die zu reinigende Oberfläche aufgetragen (bzw. aufsprühen) oder die zu reinigenden Teile in die Reinigungslösung eingelegt. Nach der Einwirkungszeit (abhängig vom Grad der Verschmutzung und der Applikationsweise ( kalt / warm)) wird mit Wasser nachgespült ("klarspülen").The preparation of the cleaning solution depends on the respective application. When used as a cold cleaner, 1 part of the concentrate is stirred into 1, 2 or 4 parts of water (for oil and fat-containing impurities, concentration depending on the degree of contamination), when used as a warm cleaner, 1 part of the concentrate is stirred into 4 - 19 parts of water . The cleaning solution prepared in this way is applied (or sprayed on) to the surface to be cleaned or the parts to be cleaned are placed in the cleaning solution. After the exposure time (depending on the degree of soiling and the method of application (cold / warm)), rinse with water ("rinse off").
Bei der Anwendung als Hochdruckreiniger wird 1 Teil Konzentrat in 19 - 49 Teile Wasser eingerührt. Für eine Einphasenreinigung wird die Reinigungslösung nach Vorschrift des Herstel- lers des Hochdruckreinigers eingefüllt und appliziert. Für eine Zweiphasenreinigung wird die Reinigungslösung ( Kaltreiniger) auf die zu reinigende Oberfläche aufgebracht. Nach der Einwirkungszeit (abhängig vom Grad der Verschmutzung) mit der Hochdruckreinigerlösung (in der Regel ist eine Konzentration 1 : 49 ausreichend) nach Vorschrift des Herstellers des Hochdruckreinigers weiterverfahren ( entsprechend der Einphasenreinigung).When used as a pressure washer, 1 part of the concentrate is stirred into 19 - 49 parts of water. For a single-phase cleaning, the cleaning solution is made according to the manufacturer's instructions. of the high-pressure cleaner and applied. For a two-phase cleaning, the cleaning solution (cold cleaner) is applied to the surface to be cleaned. After the exposure time (depending on the degree of contamination) with the high-pressure cleaner solution (usually a concentration of 1:49 is sufficient), proceed according to the instructions of the manufacturer of the high-pressure cleaner (corresponding to the single-phase cleaning).
Beispiel 3. Anionmodul, nichtionisches Modul und Lösevermittlermodul werden wie in Beispiel 1 beschrieben hergestellt. Jeweils 10 Gew.% Anionmodul, nichtionisches Modul und Lösevermittlermodul werden mit 0,4 - 1 Gew.% Duftöl gemischt und mit demineralisiertem Wasser auf 100 Gew.% aufgefüllt. Diese spezielle Reinigungslösung dient zur Beseitigung von Schmutz, Öl- und Fettrückständen auf polymerbeschichteten Gehäusen von Computern, Bildschirmen, Druckern und anderen Peripheriegeräten der EDV-Industrie. Die Reinigungslösung wird entweder mit einem handelsüblichen Pumpzerstäuber auf die zu reinigende Oberfläche aufgesprüht oder mittels eines Baumwolltuches, welches mit der Lösung befeuchtet wird, auf die zu reinigende Oberfläche aufgetragen. Bei beiden Verfahren sollte eine möglichst vollständige Flächenbedeckung erfolgen. Nach kurzer Einwirkungszeit (in der Regel und bei normaler Verschmutzung ca. 6 bis 10 Sekunden) wird im zweiten Reinigungsschritt mit einem trockenen Baumwolltuch die Oberfläche trockengewischt. Weitere Reinigungsschritte sind nicht erforderlich.Example 3. Anion module, nonionic module and solubilizer module are produced as described in Example 1. 10% by weight of anion module, nonionic module and solubilizer module are mixed with 0.4-1% by weight of fragrance oil and made up to 100% by weight with demineralized water. This special cleaning solution is used to remove dirt, oil and grease residues on polymer-coated housings of computers, monitors, printers and other peripheral devices in the IT industry. The cleaning solution is either sprayed onto the surface to be cleaned using a commercially available pump atomizer or applied to the surface to be cleaned using a cotton cloth which is moistened with the solution. Both methods should cover the area as completely as possible. After a short exposure time (usually and with normal soiling approx. 6 to 10 seconds), the surface is wiped dry with a dry cotton cloth in the second cleaning step. No further cleaning steps are required.
Beispiel 4. Anionmodul, nichtionisches Modul und Lösevermittlermodul werden wie in Beispiel 1 beschrieben hergestellt. Jeweils 10 Gew.% Anionmodul, nichtionisches Modul und Lösevermittlermodul werden mit 0,02 Gew.% Antikorrosivum und 0,4 - 1 Gew.% Duftöl gemischt und mit demineralisiertem Wasser auf 100 Gew.% aufgefüllt. Diese spezielle Reinigungslösung dient zur Beseitigung von Schmutz- und Fettrückständen auf Schmuck, Juwelen und Modeschmuck. Ebenfalls geeignet zur Reinigung von Metalluhrenarmbändern ( bei wasserdichten Uhren) und für den Einsatz in Ultraschallbädern ( bei Juwelieren). Die zu reinigenden Schmuckstücke werden in die Reinigungslösung eingelegt. Nach einer Einwirkungszeit von mindestens 10 Minuten ( bei größerer Verschmutzung entsprechend länger) können die Schmuckstücke der Reinigungslösung entnommen, unter fließendem Wasser abgespült und mit einem Baumwolltuch ( bzw. mit schwachem Luftstrom ( Fön)) getrocknet werden. In der Regel sind keine weiteren Reinigungsschritte mehr erforderlich. In der folgenden Tabelle 1 sind die Module, welche die Basis der Produkte entsprechend der Erfindung bilden, zusammenfassend dargestellt. Tabelle 2 zeigt Beispiele der Reinigungsprodukte für universelle und spezielle Anwendungen entsprechend der Erfindung. Tabelle 1Example 4. Anion module, nonionic module and solubilizer module are produced as described in Example 1. 10% by weight of anion module, nonionic module and solubilizer module are mixed with 0.02% by weight of anti-corrosive and 0.4-1% by weight of fragrance oil and made up to 100% by weight with demineralized water. This special cleaning solution is used to remove dirt and grease residues from jewelry, jewels and fashion jewelry.
