Abstract
Description
L'invention se rapporte à une tablette détergente ainsi qu'à son procédé de fabrication.The invention relates to a detergent tablet and to its method of manufacturing.
On connaít diverses sortes de compositions détergentes pour le lavage de la vaisselle en machine.We know various kinds of detergent compositions for washing washing up in the machine.
On a ainsi proposé notamment des poudres ou des gels pour lave-vaisselle dont la quantité nécessaire est mesurée empiriquement par le consommateur qui les place dans le doseur dudit lave-vaisselle. Ce type de conditionnement n'est pas satisfaisant dans la mesure où le consommateur utilise la plupart du temps une trop faible ou une trop forte quantité de poudre ou de gel, conduisant ainsi soit à un mauvais lavage, soit à une surconsommation de produits.In particular, powders or gels for dishwashers have been proposed. whose quantity required is empirically measured by the consumer who place in the dispenser of said dishwasher. This type of packaging is not satisfactory since the consumer mostly uses too much too little or too much powder or gel, leading to either improper washing, or overconsumption of products.
Pour résoudre ce problème, on a proposé des tablettes dites monocouche constituées d'un mélange de composants tels que agents anti-calcaire, système enzymatique, agents de blanchiment, etc... Toutefois, ce type de tablettes présente l'inconvénient de conduire à la dissolution plus ou moins rapide et aléatoire des composants en fonction du cycle et de la température de lavage. De plus, les effets techniques des composants sont combinés de façon non rationnelle. En outre et surtout, on peut être amené à constater le dépôt d'un voile blanc sur la vaisselle, particulièrement apparent sur les verres, ce qui suggère un mauvais lavage ou rinçage et conduit à une dégradation rapide et apparente de la qualité de la vaisselle et à la perte de l'effet de transparence des verres.To solve this problem, so-called monolayer tablets have been proposed. made up of a mixture of components such as anti-scale agents, system enzymatic, bleaching agents, etc ... However, this type of tablets has the disadvantage of leading to the more or less rapid and random dissolution of components depending on the wash cycle and temperature. In addition, the effects component techniques are combined in an irrational way. Furthermore and above all, we may have to note the deposit of a white veil on the dishes, particularly noticeable on glasses, which suggests improper washing or rinsing and leads to a rapid and apparent deterioration in the quality of the dishes and the loss of the transparency effect of the glasses.
Pour résoudre ce problème, on a proposé dans le document WO 97/03177 une tablette muticouches constituée d'au moins deux couches, dont une comprend un agent de blanchiment et un activateur de blanchiment, tandis que l'autre comprend un agent anti-corrosif.To solve this problem, the document WO 97/03177 has been proposed. a multilayer tablet made up of at least two layers, one of which includes a bleach and a bleach activator, while the other includes an anti-corrosion agent.
Même si ce concept permet de séparer les deux actions, respectivement blanchiment et anticorrosion, on peut être amené à constater encore l'apparition du voile blanc sur la vaisselle et les verres en particulier. En d'autres termes, le système anti-calcaire n'a pas joué son rôle immédiatement, ou tout au moins de façon insuffisante.Even if this concept allows to separate the two actions, respectively bleaching and anticorrosion, we may still notice the appearance of white veil on dishes and glasses in particular. In other words, the anti-lime system did not play its role immediately, or at least insufficiently.
Le document EP-A-0 481 547 décrit une pastille comprenant un noyau enrobé de deux couches consécutives. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, le noyau contient l'agent de blanchiment, tandis que la couche externe est composée d'enzymes, le noyau et la couche externe étant séparés par une couche intermédiaire à base de polymère. Ce type de pastille présente dont l'inconvénient d'interrompre l'activité des différents constituants entre le moment où la couche externe est totalement dissoute et le moment où le noyau commence à se dissoudre.Document EP-A-0 481 547 describes a pellet comprising a core coated with two consecutive layers. In a preferred embodiment, the core contains the bleaching agent, while the outer layer is made up of enzymes, the nucleus and the outer layer being separated by a layer polymer-based intermediate. This type of tablet has the disadvantage to interrupt the activity of the various constituents between the moment when the layer external is completely dissolved and the moment when the nucleus begins to dissolve.
Le document DE-A-4 404 279 décrit une tablette comprenant au moins trois couches, dont la couche centrale contient un agent de blanchiment. Il est en outre mentionné que la tablette peut contenir également des activateurs de blanchiment ou encore des enzymes. Cependant, rien n'est indiqué concernant la localisation exacte de ces différents constituants, de même que la séquence de dissolution de la tablette.Document DE-A-4 404 279 describes a tablet comprising at least three layers, of which the central layer contains a bleaching agent. He is in additionally mentioned that the tablet can also contain activators of bleaching or enzymes. However, nothing is said about the exact location of these various constituents, as well as the sequence of dissolution of the tablet.
Le problème que se propose de résoudre l'invention est de fournir une tablette détergente multicouches permettant un lavage efficace en évitant notamment le dépôt d'un voile blanc sur la vaisselle.The problem which the invention proposes to solve is to provide a multi-layer detergent tablet for efficient washing while avoiding in particular the deposit of a white veil on the dishes.
Un autre problème que se propose de résoudre l'invention est de fournir une tablette multicouches, dont la séquence de dissolution permette notamment de séparer l'activité de l'agent de blanchiment de celle du système anti-corrosif.Another problem which the invention proposes to solve is to provide a multilayer tablet, the dissolution sequence of which allows in particular to separate the activity of the bleaching agent from that of the anti-corrosion system.
Un autre problème que se propose de résoudre l'invention est de fournir une tablette multicouches qui reste stable lors du stockage. On a en effet constaté que dans les tablettes proposées jusqu'alors, le système enzymatique était dégradé en particulier par les agents de blanchiment ou le mélange agents de blanchiment/activateurs de blanchiment.Another problem which the invention proposes to solve is to provide a multi-layer tablet which remains stable during storage. We have indeed found that in the tablets proposed until then, the enzymatic system was degraded in particular by bleaching agents or blending agents bleaching / bleaching activators.
Pour résoudre l'ensemble de ces problèmes, l'invention propose une tablette détergente constituée d'une structure sandwich en au moins trois couches superposées, respectivement
- deux couches externes ;
- une couche médiane ;
- les couches externes comprennent un agent anti-calcaire ;
- la couche médiane comprend un agent de blanchiment ;
- les couches externes présentent un temps de dissolution plus rapide que celui de la couche médiane et ont pour fonction de constituer des agents retardateurs à la dissolution de la couche médiane et donc de ses effets, en vue de permettre un prétraitement anti-calcaire de l'eau de lavage et donc l'obtention d'une eau pure pour le lavage ultérieur ;
- tout d'abord, la dissolution des deux couches externes,
- puis, lorsque les couches externes sont complètement dissoutes, la dissolution de la couche médiane.
- two outer layers;
- a middle layer;
- the outer layers include an anti-scale agent;
- the middle layer includes a bleaching agent;
- the outer layers have a faster dissolution time than that of the middle layer and have the function of constituting agents delaying the dissolution of the middle layer and therefore of its effects, with a view to allowing an anti-lime pretreatment of the washing water and therefore obtaining pure water for subsequent washing;
- first, the dissolution of the two outer layers,
- then, when the outer layers are completely dissolved, the middle layer dissolves.
Afin de permettre la dissolution rapide de l'agent anti-calcaire, et donc des couches externes, ledit agent anti-calcaire est hydraté, avantageusement préhydraté.In order to allow the rapid dissolution of the anti-scale agent, and therefore outer layers, said anti-scale agent is hydrated, advantageously prehydrated.
On pourra par exemple utiliser du tripolyphosphate préhydraté commercialisé par RHONE-POULENC sous la marque "RHODIAPHOS HPA 3,5".We can for example use prehydrated tripolyphosphate marketed by RHONE-POULENC under the brand "RHODIAPHOS HPA 3.5 ".
Selon un mode de réalisation avantageux de l'invention, et pour permettre une séquence de dissolution homogène de la tablette, les couches externes ont une composition identique.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, and to allow a homogeneous dissolution sequence of the tablet, the outer layers have a identical composition.
En pratique, la dissolution des couches externes est réalisée dans une gamme de temps comprise entre deux et sept minutes, avantageusement trois à cinq minutes.In practice, the dissolution of the outer layers is carried out in a time range between two and seven minutes, preferably three to five minutes.
De même, la dissolution de la couche médiane s'effectue dans une gamme de temps comprise entre 8 et 16 minutes, avantageusement 10 minutes.Similarly, the dissolution of the middle layer takes place in a range of time between 8 and 16 minutes, advantageously 10 minutes.
Par ailleurs, le temps de dissolution de chacune des couches varie en fonction de la dureté de la pastille. En pratique, la dureté de la pastille est choisie entre 3 et 40 kilopascals (KP), avantageusement à 10 à 25 KP. Furthermore, the dissolution time of each of the layers varies in depending on the hardness of the tablet. In practice, the hardness of the tablet is chosen between 3 and 40 kilopascals (KP), advantageously at 10 to 25 KP.
Comme déjà dit, la tablette de l'invention se présente sous forme de trois couches planes superposées l'une à l'autre par tassement de leur surface la plus large. De la sorte, la dissolution de la périphérie apparente de la couche intermédiaire lors de la première séquence est très limitée.As already said, the tablet of the invention is in the form of three flat layers superimposed on each other by compacting their most surface large. In this way, the dissolution of the apparent periphery of the layer intermediate during the first sequence is very limited.
En pratique, le poids de la tablette de l'invention est d'environ 20 grammes, le poids de chacune des couches se répartissant comme suit :
- couches externes de 5 à 7 g
- couche médiane de 6 à 10 g.
- outer layers of 5 to 7 g
- middle layer from 6 to 10 g.
De préférence, l'agent anti-calcaire est choisi dans le groupe comprenant le tripolyphosphate, le citrate de soude, les phosphonates organiques, les aminopolyalkylènephosphonates, les aminopolycarboxylates, les homo et/ou copolymères acryliques et maleiques acides ou sous forme neutralisées.Preferably, the anti-scale agent is chosen from the group comprising the tripolyphosphate, soda, organic phosphonates, aminopolyalkylenephosphonates, aminopolycarboxylates, homo and / or acrylic and maleic copolymers, acidic or in neutralized form.
Pour permettre l'attaque des salissures, les deux couches externes comprennent un système enzymatique constitué d'enzymes du type protéase, amylase et lipase.To allow dirt attack, the two outer layers include an enzyme system made up of protease type enzymes, amylase and lipase.
En outre, ces couches externes peuvent comprendre un agent alcalin, un agent tensioactif, un agent anti-ternissant notamment à l'égard de l'argenterie.In addition, these outer layers may include an alkaline agent, a surfactant, an anti-tarnishing agent in particular with regard to silverware.
Comme déjà dit, c'est seulement lorsque les deux couches externes sont dissoutes, que débute l'action de la couche médiane.As already said, it is only when the two outer layers are dissolved, that the action of the middle layer begins.
En tant qu'agent de blanchiment, on utilise en pratique un agent de blanchiment choisi dans le groupe comprenant le perborate de soude mono ou tétrahydraté, le percarbonate de soude et le monopersulfate de soude. As a bleaching agent, in practice a bleaching agent is used. bleaching chosen from the group comprising mono soda perborate or tetrahydrate, sodium percarbonate and sodium monopersulfate.
Néanmoins, pour permettre un blanchiment de la vaisselle plus efficace après élimination du calcaire et des salissures, la couche médiane comprend en outre un activateur de blanchiment choisi dans le groupe comprenant le tétraacétylène diamine (TAED), le pentaacétylglucose (PAG), le tétraacétylglycoluryl (TAGU).However, to allow more effective dishwashing after removal of lime and dirt, the middle layer includes in addition to a bleach activator selected from the group comprising tetraacetylene diamine (TAED), pentaacetylglucose (PAG), tetraacetylglycoluryl (TAGU).
Pour permettre la complexation des ions métalliques et amener des effets dispersants, la couche médiane comprend en outre un agent complexant choisi dans le groupe comprenant le phosphonate ou les homopolymères d'acide acrylique ou copolymères d'acide acrylique et maléique.To allow complexing of metal ions and bring effects dispersants, the middle layer further comprises a complexing agent chosen from the group comprising phosphonate or homopolymers of acrylic acid or copolymers of acrylic and maleic acid.
Pour renforcer l'activité de lavage, la couche médiane comprend également un agent alcalin.To strengthen the washing activity, the middle layer includes also an alkaline agent.
Pour éviter l'apparition de mousse, la couche médiane comprend un agent tensioactif à activité anti-mousse.To avoid the appearance of foam, the middle layer includes an agent surfactant with anti-foaming activity.
Du fait de la séparation de l'activité enzymatique de celle de blanchiment, on observe une très bonne stabilité au stockage de la tablette de l'invention. De plus, compte tenu du fait que le milieu peroxydant est sans eau libre, il n'y a que très peu de risque de perte d'oxygène actif. En d'autres termes, le système enzymatique n'est pas perturbé par le système peroxydant.Due to the separation of the enzymatic activity from that of bleaching, very good storage stability of the tablet of the invention is observed. Of more, taking into account the fact that the peroxidizing medium is without free water, there is only very little risk of loss of active oxygen. In other words, the system enzymatic is not disturbed by the peroxidizing system.
Cette caractéristique de stabilité optimisée permet de mettre en oeuvre des agents de blanchiment beaucoup plus peroxydant du type persulfate de soude ou encore composé chloré.This optimized stability characteristic makes it possible to implement much more peroxidizing bleaches such as sodium persulfate or still chlorinated compound.
L'invention concerne également le procédé de fabrication de la tablette détergente pour le lavage de la vaisselle. The invention also relates to the method of manufacturing the tablet. detergent for washing dishes.

- the mixture intended to form the central layer is then deposited on said first external layer, then the complex obtained is packed;
- then, the remaining part of the mixture forming the second outer layer is deposited on the central layer;
- finally, the tablet obtained is pressed.
Selon une caractéristique du procédé, on tasse la première couche externe et la couche centrale à une valeur de précompression comprise entre 10 kg/cm2 et 100 kg/cm2, tandis que le complexe obtenu est pressé à une valeur comprise entre 20 kg/cm2 et 400 kg/cm2.According to one characteristic of the process, the first outer layer and the central layer are packed to a precompression value of between 10 kg / cm 2 and 100 kg / cm 2 , while the complex obtained is pressed to a value of between 20 kg / cm 2 and 400 kg / cm 2 .
