Description

TRANSPARENT OR TRANSLUCENT. LIQUID OR GEL TYPE AUTOMATIC DISHWASHING DETERGENT PRODUCT
TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent compositions. More particularly, the invention relates to a process of imparting transparency or translucency to a liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent product and a transparent or translucent a liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent product having one or more potassium sources to maintain pre-selected potassium sodium ratios in order to make the composition transparent or translucent while at the same time not using any (I) potassium tripolyphosphate or (n) mixtures of sodium and potassium tripolyphosphate.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Improving the aesthetics of a liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent product (liquid/gel ADW or hqui-gel ADW) is believed to be a very important aspect of this product Typically, consumers of liquid ADW products have a preference for liquid ADW products having a certain color or appearance. The addition of a transparent or translucent characteπstics to a liquid ADW composition can improve the desirability of the product because of a transparent or translucent product has a shmy appearance which is liked by consumers. Also, a transparent or translucent product allows for suspension of colored prills into that product, which can further enhance the physical appearance of the product The transparent product may be clear, or dyed, using dyes that do not cause significant staining or dyeing of plastics duπng the wash cycle in automatic dishwashing.
In the low-free water environment of a typical phosphate containing gel type ADW composition, it is a real challenge to obtain clear or translucent characteπstics This is pnmaπly due to the relatively low solubility of commodity phosphate builders, such as sodium tπpolyphosphate (STPP), which has a solubility typically of about 14.5 grams per 100 cc of water at room temperature. Previous formulators wishing to obtain clear or translucent characteristics in a liquid or gel type ADW have been forced to use highly soluble potassium tπpolyphosphate (KTPP), or alternatively, commercially available mixtures of sodium tripolyphosphate and potassium tπpolyphosphates (commonly referred to as SKTPP) which have heretofore served a dual purpose of being a potassium source (for transparency/translucency) and a phosphate source (for cleaning performance) The use of KTPP and SKTPP is generally considered undesirable for vaπous reasons, one of them being the economics of manufacturing Alternatively, the previous formulators have been forced to use very low levels of KTPPs or SKTPs, which detrimentally affects cleaning performance. Thus, a considerable effort has been directed in this field, to develop novel solutions for attaining transparency and/or translucency m hqui-gel ADWs.
It has been desirable to have a hqui-gel ADW product having transparency and/or translucency characteristics, but without using (1) potassium tripolyphosphate (KTPP), and/or (n) commercially available mixtures of sodium tπpolyphosphate and potassium tripolyphosphate
(SKTPP), while at the same time still maintaining high phosphate levels so as to not detrimentally affect cleaning performance.
The inventors of the present invention have discovered that by maintaining a K:Na weight ratio greater than at least about 0.5: 1, K:Na, outstanding translucent characteristics can be imparted without having to use KTPP or SKTPP. Thus, high phosphate levels can be attained by the addition of sodium tπpolyphosphate (STPP) alone, along with the addition of potassium hydroxide (KOH) for obtaining high alkalinity or the addition of other sources of potassium for obtaining moderate alkalinity. The present invention is thus directed to overcome one or more of the problems as set forth before.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The invention meets the needs above by providing a process of imparting transparency or translucency to a liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent product, and a transparent or translucent a liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent product.
In one aspect of the present invention, the process of imparting transparency or translucency to a liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent product compπses the steps of providing a liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent composition expressly free from (l) potassium tπpolyphosphate and (n) mixture of sodium tripolyphosphate and potassium tripolyphosphate, adding one or more of potassium sources to the liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent composition, the potassium sources being expressly free of potassium tπpolyphosphate, and maintaining a potassium: sodium weight ratio greater than at least about 0.5:1. In another aspect of the present invention, the transparent or translucent a liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent product compπses a liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent composition. The composition is expressly free from (1) potassium tripolyphosphate and (π) mixture of sodium tπpolyphosphate and potassium tπpolyphosphate. The composition includes one or more of potassium sources, the potassium sources being expressly free of potassium tπpolyphosphate. The potassium: sodium weight ratio is greater than at least about 0.5:1
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the process of imparting transparency or translucency to a liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent product compπses the steps of providing a liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent composition expressly free from KTPP and SKTPP. Express exclusion of KTPP and SKTPP In the preferred embodiment, the liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent composition is expressly free of KTPP and SKTPP. The abbreviation KTPP as used herein means potassium tripolyphosphate, as is commercially available, which may contain incidental and/or trace impurities of other tπpolyphosphates, such as STPP. The abbreviation SKTPP, as used herein means commercially available mixtures of STPP and KTPP, wherein the weight ratio of Na;K is more than 95:5. Potassium sources
The process further includes the step of adding one or more of potassium sources to the liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent composition, the potassium sources being expressly free of potassium tripolyphosphate. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the potassium source is KOH, added m an amount desirably in a range of from about 4% to about
20% by weight of the detergent composition and preferably in a range of from about 8% to about 15% by weight of the detergent composition. When KOH is the preferred potassium source, the liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent composition has a pH desirably of at least about 9, and preferably, in a range of from about 11 to about 12.5. For purposes of this disclosure, the term pH, as used herein means pH of a 1% solution of liquid ADW composition in water by weight. Alternatively, the potassium source is selected from the group consisting of K2S04, KNO3, K2C03, KC1, KBr, K3PO4, potassium silicate, potassium acetate, or mixtures thereof. When the potassium source is selected from the aforementioned group, it is added in an amount desirably in a range of from about 2% to about 20% by weight of the detergent composition and preferably m a range of from about 5% to about 16% by weight of the detergent composition, depending upon the availability of K in the potassium source on a molar basis. When the potassium source is selected from the aforementioned group, the liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent composition has a pH of at least about 6.5. The lower pH values are preferred when formulating the detergent composition with enzymes, which may be present m the hqui-gel composition m a liquid form or in the form of solid prills that are coated with a permeable or impermeable coating. K'Na weight ratio
The process further includes the step of maintaining a potassium: sodium weight ratio desirably greater than about 0.5 1 , and preferably above 0 65.1. In a more preferred embodiment, the K.Na weight ratio is desirably maintained in a range of from about 0.5: 1 to about 1.25 T , particularly when the detergent composition has a total solids content of less than about 20% by weight. Preferably, the potassium: sodium weight ratio is maintained at least greater than 0.75: 1, and more preferably, in a range of from about 0.75.1 to about 2 1, potassium: sodium, particularly when the liquid or gel type automatic dishwashing detergent composition has a total solids content in a range of from about 20% to about 40% by weight The total solids content compπses solids in the form of STPP, I e , the phosphate builder, which is typically present in an amount in a range of about 10%) to 40%, thickener, such as a polymer, and potassium hydroxide, i.e., one of the potassium sources It should be noted that other optional ingredients may also make up the total solids content in a hqui-gel ADW composition.
