  • the premix is metered in between two smooth rollers or with recesses of a defined shape and rolled out under pressure between the two rollers to form a sheet-like compact, the so-called Schülpe.
  • the rollers exert a high line pressure on the premix and can be additionally heated or cooled as required.
  • smooth rollers smooth, unstructured sliver belts are obtained, while by using structured rollers, correspondingly structured slugs can be produced in which, for example, certain shapes of the later particles can be specified.
  • the sliver belt is subsequently broken up into smaller pieces by a knocking-off and crushing process and can be processed into granules in this way, which can be refined by further known surface treatment processes, in particular in an approximately spherical shape.
  • the temperature of the pressing tools that is to say of the rollers, is preferably at most 150 ° C., preferably at most 100 ° C. and in particular at a maximum of 75 ° C.
  • Particularly preferred production processes work in roller compacting with process temperatures which are 10 ° C., in particular a maximum of 5 ° C. above the melting temperature or the upper temperature limit of the melting range of the binder.
  • the duration of the temperature effect in the compression area of the smooth rollers or with depressions of a defined shape is a maximum of 2 minutes and is in particular in a range between 30 seconds and 1 minute.
  • the final preparations can also be made by pelleting .
  • the premix is applied to a perforated surface and pressed through the holes by means of a pressure-producing body with plasticization.
  • the premix is compressed under pressure, plasticized, pressed through a perforated surface by means of a rotating roller in the form of fine strands and finally comminuted into granules using a knock-off device.
  • the most varied configurations of the pressure roller and perforated die are conceivable here. For example, flat perforated plates are used as well as concave or convex ring matrices through which the material is pressed using one or more pressure rollers.
  • the press rolls can also be conical in the plate devices, in the ring-shaped devices dies and press roll (s) can have the same or opposite direction of rotation.
  • An apparatus suitable for carrying out the method is described, for example, in German laid-open specification DE 3816842 A1 .
  • the ring die press disclosed in this document consists of a rotating ring die interspersed with press channels and at least one press roller which is operatively connected to its inner surface and which presses the material supplied to the die space through the press channels into a material discharge.
  • the ring die and the press roller can be driven in the same direction, so that a reduced shear stress and thus a small increase in the temperature of the premix can be achieved.
  • pelleting can also be carried out with heatable or coolable rollers in order to set a desired temperature of the premix.
  • the temperature of the pressing tools that is to say the pressure rollers or pressure rollers, is preferably at most 150 ° C., preferably at most 100 ° C. and in particular at a maximum of 75 ° C.
  • Particularly preferred production processes work in roller compacting with process temperatures which are 10 ° C., in particular a maximum of 5 ° C. above the melting temperature or the upper temperature limit of the melting range of the binder.
  • Another press agglomeration process that can be used to produce the inventive is tableting. Because of the size of the molded articles produced, it may be useful for tableting to add conventional disintegration aids, for example cellulose and its derivatives, in particular in coarser form, or crosslinked PVP in addition to the binder described above, which facilitate the disintegration of the compacts in the wash liquor.
  • the particulate press agglomerates obtained can either be used directly or aftertreated and / or prepared beforehand by customary methods.
  • the usual aftertreatments include, for example, powdering with finely divided ingredients from washing or cleaning agents, which generally further increases the bulk density.
  • a preferred aftertreatment is also the procedure according to German patent applications DE 19524287 A1 and DE 19547457 A1 , in which dusty or at least finely divided ingredients (the so-called fine fractions) are adhered to the particulate end products of the process, which serve as the core, and thus give rise to agents , which have these so-called fines as an outer shell.
  • this advantageously takes place by melting agglomeration.
  • the solid end preparations are in tablet form, these tablets preferably having rounded corners and edges, in particular for storage and transport reasons.
  • the base of these tablets can be circular or rectangular, for example.
  • Multi-layer tablets in particular tablets with 2 or 3 layers, which can also have different colors, are particularly preferred. Blue-white or green-white or blue-green-white tablets are particularly preferred.
  • the detergent tablets generally contain a disintegrant which is intended to cause the tablet to dissolve quickly or to disintegrate rapidly in the aqueous liquor.
  • a disintegrant which is intended to cause the tablet to dissolve quickly or to disintegrate rapidly in the aqueous liquor.
  • a fluidized bed was filled with powdered dodecylbenzenesulfonate sodium salt as the seed material with up to 70% of the fluidized bed capacity. Subsequently, at a soil air temperature of 160 ° C (ie a temperature of approx. 95 ° C in the fluidized bed), further surfactant powder was continuously introduced using a harvested nozzle. A 50% by weight aqueous sodium acetate solution was introduced through a second nozzle to coat the surfactant grain. The material flows were adjusted by regularly checking the discharged and classified coated granules from the fluidized bed in such a way that the acetate content in the end product was 42% by weight.
  • Example H2 was repeated using powdered coconut alcohol sulfate sodium salt (Sulfopon® 1218 G, Cognis GmbH, Dusseldorf / FRG). The coating was carried out with a 37% by weight aqueous solution of sodium citrate dihydrate. The material flows were adjusted so that the content of sodium citrate in the end product was 20% by weight.
