Aus der EP-A-0392248 ist ein Reinigungsmittel bekannt, das ein Trägermaterial aus hoch saugfähigen, gequollenen Polymer-Teilchen und organischen Faserteilchen besitzt.From EP-A-0392248 a cleaning agent is known, which is a carrier material from highly absorbent, swollen polymer particles and organic Has fiber particles.

Ausgehend von dem eingangs genannten Stand der Technik liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Mittel zur schmutzhemmenden Ausrüstung für textile Flächen anzugeben, das bei vereinfachter Handhabung Umgebungsverschmutzungen vermeiden läßt. Based on the above-mentioned prior art is the Invention the task is based, a means for dirt-inhibiting Specify equipment for textile surfaces, with simplified handling Avoid environmental pollution.

Diese Aufgabe ist beim Gegenstand des Anspruches 1 gelöst. Die Wirkstofflösung kann ein Fluorcarbonharz oder ein Polysiloxan-Derivat oder weiter alternativ eine Kombination aus einer Fluorcarbonharz-Zubereitung und einem Polysiloxan-Derivat aufweisen. Zufolge der erfindungsgemäßen Zusammensetzung wird die schmutzhemmende Wirkstofflösung, wie Fluorcarbonharz, über einen Zwischenträger, wie z. B. Zellulose oder auch andere bekannte Trägerstoffe, aufgebracht. Das erfindungsgemäße Mittel wird in einfachster Weise auf den aufzurüstenden, textilen Bodenbelag aufgestreut und hiernach bspw. mittels eines Bürstengerätes in den Bodenbelag eingearbeitet. Umgebungsverschmutzungen werden hierbei vermieden. Ein weiterer Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Zusammensetzung ist das gegenüber herkömmlichen, schmutzhemmenden Mitteln verbesserte Anschmutzverhalten. Hieraus resultiert, dass ein Verschmutzungsgrad nach einer Reinigung des textilen Bodenbelages entsprechend wesentlich verringert ist, so dass nach einer Reinigung ein Verschmutzungsgrad erreicht wird, welcher dem eines mit einem herkömmlichen Reinigungsmittel behandelten Bodens entspricht. Zur weiteren Erhöhung der Reinigungswirkung kann vorgesehen sein, dass das Mittel weiter ein Textilreinigungsmittel enthält, welches bevorzugt ein Tensid oder ein Tensidgemisch aufweist. Hierbei kann es sich um ein anionisches, nichtionisches, kationisches oder auch amphoteres Tensid handeln, wobei anionische Tenside jedoch für die Reinigungswirkung effektiver sind als nichtionische oder amphotere Tenside. Hier erweist sich die erfindungsgemäße Zusammensetzung mit einem Trägermaterial wie Zellulose dahingehend als vorteilhaft, dass die an diesem angelagerten Wirkstoffe weiter wirksam bleiben. Es ist bekannt, das kationische Teilchen aufweisende Antisoil-Produkte zur Schmutzhemmung nicht mit anionischen Tensiden zur Reinigung verträglich sind. Diese neutralisieren sich in Lösungen und werden unwirksam. Die beiden Wirkstoffe brauchen ihre Ladung, um zum Einen mit den Teppichfasern (Antisoil; schmutzhemmendes Mittel) und zum Anderen mit dem Schmutz (Tensid; Reinigungsmittel) in Verbindung zu treten. Das Trägermaterial, insbesondere Zellulose hat eine unterschiedliche Affinität zu den jeweiligen Komponenten, welche demnach von dem Trägermaterial in unterschiedlicher Konzentration aufgesaugt und außen an den Fasern angelagert werden. Somit neutralisieren sich die kationischen und anionischen Teilchen nicht, wonach beide Komponenten durch das katalysatorartig wirkende Trägermaterial wirksam bleiben. In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung des Erfindungsgegenstandes ist das Trägermaterial mit Wasser versetzt, wobei weiter eine Mischung der an der Oberfläche der mit Wasser gesättigten Polymer-Teilchen angelagerten organischen Faserteilchen mit einer Wirkstofflösung vorgesehen ist. Als Trägermaterial werden beispielsweise im trockenen Zustand hoch saugfähige, danach gequollene Polymer-Teilchen -sogenannte Superabsorber- verwendet, dies zusammen mit organischen Faserteilchen, welche Faserteilchen an der Oberfläche der Polymer-Teilchen angelagert sind. Die hoch saugfähigen, gequollenen Polymer-Teilchen schaffen das notwendige Volumen und die notwendige Oberfläche durch einen hohen, in den Polymer-Teilchen gebundenen. Wasseranteil. Das Trägermaterial bzw. das absorbierende Material steht der Teppichoberfläche voll zur Verfügung. Es neigt zur Agglomerat-Bildung, so dass es nicht im Teppich "versandet". Die organischen Faserteilchen sind auf der Oberfläche der gequollenen Polymer-Teilchen angelagert. Sie sind daher sehr gut verteilt und es ist nur eine geringe Menge an organischen Faserteilchen erforderlich. Ein weiterer wesentlicher Vorteil ist darin zu sehen, dass sehr variabele Formulierungen insbesondere der schmutzhemmenden Substanz möglich sind. Bspw. können diesbezüglich Fluorcarbonharz-Zubereitungen und/oder Polysiloxan-Derivate als schmutzhemmende Mittel in Verbindung mit einem Zwischenträger der erwähnten Art zur Anwendung kommen. In weiterer Ausgestaltung ist vorgesehen, dass die Polymer-Teilchen aus einem Polyacrylat bestehen. Besonders bevorzugt ist eine quervernetzte, teilweise als Natriumsalz vorliegende Polyacrylsäure. Solche hoch saugaktiven Polymere können das mehrfache ihres eigenen Gewichtes an wässerigen Flüssigkeiten aufnehmen. Hierbei bildet sich ein Gel, dessen Beschaffenheit jedoch verschiedenartig sein kann. Solche hoch saügaktiven Polymere geben die wässerige Flüssigkeit, d. h. in aller Regel gewöhnliches Wasser, das sie aufgenommen haben, auch unter Druck nicht oder nur zu einem relativ geringen Teil ab. Im Rahmen der Erfindung ist bevorzugt, dass das Gel die Beschaffenheit einer körnigen Masse (Kaviarstruktur) aufweist. Hierdurch sind sehr kleine Polymer-Teilchen kugelförmiger Struktur gebildet, mit einem Durchmesser von etwa 10-1000 µm im gequollenen Zustand. Entsprechend ergibt sich eine sehr grosse Oberfläche. Die organischen Fasern können einen Durchmesser von 5-30 µm und eine Länge von 50-400 µm aufweisen. Es handelt sich hierbei bevorzugt um Zellulosefasern. Desweiteren können übliche Hilfs- und Duftstoffe, wie Konservierungsmittel, Antistatikum etc. vorgesehen sein. This object is achieved in the subject matter of claim 1. The Active ingredient solution may be a fluorocarbon resin or a polysiloxane derivative or alternatively a combination of a fluorocarbon resin formulation and a polysiloxane derivative exhibit. As a result of the composition according to the invention is the dirt-inhibiting drug solution, such as Fluorocarbon resin, via an intermediate carrier, such as. B. Cellulose or other known carriers applied. The agent of the invention is in the simplest Way to the upgraded, textile flooring sprinkled and hereafter, for example, by means of a brushing device incorporated into the flooring. environment pollution are avoided. Another Advantage of the composition of the invention is the improved over conventional, soil-inhibiting agents Soiling. This results in that a degree of contamination after cleaning the textile Floor covering significantly reduced accordingly is, so that after cleaning a pollution degree is reached, which is the one with a conventional Cleaning agent treated soil corresponds. To further increase the cleaning effect can be provided Be that means continue to be a textile cleaner contains, which preferably a surfactant or a Has surfactant mixture. This may be a anionic, nonionic, cationic or else amphoteric surfactant, with anionic surfactants however, are more effective for the cleaning action than nonionic or amphoteric surfactants. Here it turns out the composition according to the invention with a carrier material such as cellulose as beneficial to that the attached to this active ingredients continue to be effective stay. It is known to have the cationic particle Antisoil anti-soiling products not included anionic surfactants are compatible for cleaning. These neutralize themselves in solutions and become ineffective. The two active ingredients need their charge in order to One with the carpet fibers (Antisoil; Agent) and on the other hand with the dirt (surfactant; to contact. The carrier material, especially cellulose has a different one Affinity to the respective components, which accordingly of the carrier material in different concentrations sucked up and attached to the outside of the fibers. Thus, the cationic and neutralize anionic particles are not, according to which both components through the catalyst-like carrier material remain effective. In a preferred embodiment of Subject of the invention is the carrier material with water offset, whereby further a mixture of at the Surface of the water-saturated polymer particles deposited organic fiber particles with a drug solution is provided. As a carrier material for example, highly absorbent in the dry state, thereafter swollen polymer particles - so-called superabsorbent used, together with organic fiber particles, which fiber particles on the surface of Polymer particles are attached. The highly absorbent, swollen polymer particles create the necessary Volume and the necessary surface through a high, bound in the polymer particles. Water content. The carrier material or the absorbent Material is fully available on the carpet surface. It tends to agglomerate formation, so it not in the carpet "sands". The organic fiber particles are on the surface of the swollen polymer particles attached. They are therefore very well distributed and it's just a small amount of organic Fiber particles required. Another essential Advantage is to see that very variable formulations especially the soil-inhibiting substance possible are. For example. may in this regard fluorocarbon resin preparations and / or polysiloxane derivatives as Anti-dirt agents in conjunction with an intermediate carrier of the mentioned type are used. In Another embodiment provides that the polymer particles consist of a polyacrylate. Especially preferred is a crosslinked, partially as the sodium salt present polyacrylic acid. Such highly absorbent Polymers can be multiple of their own weight absorb on aqueous liquids. in this connection A gel forms, but its nature varies can be. Such highly absorbent polymers give the aqueous liquid, d. H. in all Usually ordinary water that they have taken up even under pressure not or only to a relatively small Part off. In the context of the invention is preferred that the gel is the texture of a granular mass (Caviar structure). This is very small Polymer particles formed spherical structure, with a diameter of about 10-1000 microns in the swollen Status. Accordingly, there is a very large Surface. The organic fibers can have a diameter of 5-30 μm and a length of 50-400 μm. These are preferably cellulose fibers. Furthermore, customary auxiliaries and fragrances, such as preservatives, antistatic, etc. provided be.

    • Aus dem Diagramm in Fig. 1 ist zu erkennen, dass insbesondere im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen, in flüssiger Form aufgebrachten schmutzhemmenden Mitteln W das erfindungsgemäße, mit einem Trägermaterial versehene, schmutzhemmende Mittel WT über einen Zeitraum von mehreren Wochen die Wiederanschmutzung des behandelten Teppichbodens besser hemmt. So entspricht der Verschmutzungsgrad Delta E der Lösung WT über einen ersten Anschmutzungszeitraum A' etwa dem 0,5 bis 0,8 fachen des der bekannten Lösung W. Nach einer ersten Reinigung R' wird mit dem Mittel WT etwa ein Verschmutzungsgrad Delta E erreicht, welcher dem eines mit einem herkömmlichen Reinigungsmittel H behandelten Teppichbodens entspricht.From the diagram in Fig. 1 it can be seen that in particular compared to conventional, in liquid Form applied dirt-repellent agents W the invention, provided with a carrier material, Dirt-repellent agent WT over a period of several Week the re-soiling of the treated carpet better inhibits. So corresponds the degree of pollution Delta E of the solution WT over a first soiling period A 'about 0.5 to 0.8 times the known solution W. After a first Cleaning R 'is using the agent WT reaches about a degree of pollution Delta E, which the one with a conventional cleaning agent H treated carpet corresponds.

    Wie das Balkendiagramm in Fig. 2 zeigt, ist das Anschmutzverhalten eines mit einem Mittel WT behandelten Teppichbodens gegenüber einem mit einem herkömmlichen, schmutzhemmenden Mittel W behandelten Boden wesentlich verbessert. Insbesondere nach mehreren Anschmutzungsphasen (A' bis A'''') und Reinigungsphasen (R' bis R'''') zeigen sich deutliche Unterschiede.As the bar graph in Fig. 2 shows, the soiling behavior is one with one Medium WT treated carpet compared to one a conventional, dirt-repellent agent W treated Soil improved significantly. Especially after several soiling phases (A 'to A' '' ') and purification phases (R 'to R' '' ') show clear differences.

    Durch die wesentlich verringerte Anschmutzung ist auch der Verschmutzungsgrad Delta E nach einer Reinigung (R' bis R'''') entsprechend wesentlich verringert, so dass nach einer Reinigung ein Verschmutzungsgrad Delta E erreicht wird, welcher dem eines mit einem herkömmlichen Reinigungsmittel H behandelten Bodens entspricht.Due to the significantly reduced soiling is also the degree of pollution Delta E after a cleaning (R ' to R '' '') correspondingly substantially reduced, so that after cleaning, a degree of pollution Delta E is reached, which is the one with a conventional Detergent H treated soil corresponds.

    Zur weiteren Erhöhung der Reinigungswirkung kann das Mittel WT mit weiteren Tensiden versehen sein. So kann eine beispielhafte Mischung WT' bestehen aus: 4,9525 Anteile Wasser 0,0225 Anteile Konservierungsmittel 0,0250 Anteile Acrylat 24,8500 Anteile Wasser 1,4500 Anteile Reinigungsmittel (bevorzugt Tenside) 32,5000 Anteile Wirkstofflösung (schmutzhemmende Substanz, bspw. Fluorcarbonharz) 0,2000 Anteile Parfümöl 1,0000 Anteile Konservierungsmittel 35,0000 Anteile Trägermaterial (bspw. Zellulose). To further increase the cleaning effect, the agent WT may be provided with further surfactants. So an exemplary mix WT 'can consist of: 4.9525 Proportions of water 0.0225 Proportions of preservative 0.0250 Proportions of acrylate 24.8500 Proportions of water 1.4500 Proportions of cleaning agent (preferably surfactants) 32.5000 Proportions of active ingredient solution (soil-inhibiting substance, for example fluorocarbon resin) 0.2000 Proportions of perfume oil 1.0000 Proportions of preservative 35.0000 Shares of carrier material (eg cellulose).

    Das Balkendiagramm zeigt die gegenüber der Lösung WT noch verbesserte Reinigungswirkung der erweiterten Lösung WT'. Letztere zeigt die guten Reinigungseigenschaften von herkömmlichen Teppichreinigungsmitteln bei verbessertem Verhalten hinsichtlich der Wiederanschmutzung.The bar chart shows the opposite of the Solution WT still improved cleaning effect of extended solution WT '. The latter shows the good cleaning properties from conventional carpet cleaners with improved behavior in terms of Resoiling.

    Weitere beispielhafte Mischungen WT beziehungsweise WT' können bestehen aus: 4,9525 Anteile Wasser 0,0225 Anteile Konservierungsmittel 0,0250 Anteile Acrylat 25,9000 Anteile Wasser 0,4000 Anteile Reinigungsmittel (bevorzugt Tenside) 32,5000 Anteile Wirkstofflösung (schmutzhemmende Substanz, bspw. Fluorcarbonharz) 35,0000 Trägermaterial (bspw. Zellulose) oder 4,9525 Anteile Wasser 0,0225 Anteile Konservierungsmittel 0,0250 Anteile Acrylat 25,6500 Anteile Wasser 1,4500 Anteile Netzmittel 0,40000 Anteile Reinigungsmittel (bevorzugt Tensid) 32,5000 Anteile Wirkstofflösung (schmutzhemmen de Substanz, bspw.

    Durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausrüstung des schmutzhemmenden Mittels ist neben der Verhinderung der bekannten Umgebungsbeeinträchtigung eine verbesserte Handhabung erreicht. Darüber hinaus erweist sich das mit dem Zwischenträger aufgebrachte schmutzhemmende Mittel auch im Hinblick auf eine Wiederanschmutzung des behandelten Belages als vorteilhaft. Gegenüber dem bekannten, in flüssiger Form durch Aufsprühen aufgebrachten Mittel ist eine verbesserte Langzeitwirkung gegenüber Wiederverschmutzung erreicht. By the inventive equipment of dirt-retardant Means is in addition to the prevention of the known Environmental degradation improved handling reached. In addition, this proves to be with the Intermediate applied de-staining agents too with regard to a re-soiling of the treated Belages as beneficial. Opposite the known, in liquid form applied by spraying agent is an improved long-term re-pollution effect reached.

    Des Weiteren ist durch die Anordnung des schutzhemmenden Mittels und des Reinigungsmittels an dem Trägermaterial gewährleistet, dass sich diese nicht neutralisieren sondern zur Verbindung mit den Teppichfasern (schmutzhemmendes Mittel) bzw. mit dem Schmutz (Reinigungsmittel) wirksam bleiben.Furthermore, by the arrangement of the protective-inhibiting Agent and the cleaning agent on the carrier material ensures that they do not neutralize but to connect with the carpet fibers (dirt-repellent agent) or with the dirt (cleaning agent) remain effective.
