Definitions

  • This invention relates to novel aqueous surfactant compositions, particularly to surfactant compositions of alkyl phosphate ester salts and amphoteric surfactants. More particularly, this invention relates to essentially non-irritating aqueous surfactant compositions containing alkyl phosphate ester salts having a high monoalkyl phosphate content and amphoteric surfactants.
  • surfactants and mixtures of surfactants are known for many industrial, commercial and domestic applications. In these uses, there is often a need for the surfactant to be in a pumpable or fluid form for addition to formulations requiring the surfactant since such form enables one to save costs in handling and storing of the composition, as well as ease and convenience in formulating products therewith. Additionally, for numerous reasons, such as formulation flexibility, transportation and storage costs, it is desirable for the surfactant to be available in such pumpable compositions in as high a concentration or proportion of surfactant or active ingredient as possible.
  • novel aqueous surfactant compositions of this invention consist essentially of alkyl phosphate ester salts high in monoalkyl phosphate content and an amphoteric surfactant, wherein said composition is essentially free of compounds having a tetra-alkyl ammonium moiety.
  • This invention also provides aqueous compositions which are comprised of an alkyl phosphate ester salt surfactant composition in which the monoalkyl phosphate (1) and dialkyl phosphate (2) are present in a molar ratio of equal to or greater than 50:50, and an amphoteric surfactant.
  • the amphoteric surfactants useful in this invention do not contain a tetra-alkyl ammonium moiety.
  • Alkyl phosphate ester salts is meant to include alkylether phosphate ester salts (i.e. polyoxyalkylene derivatives of the alkanol(s) from which they are derived) as well as non-alkoxylated derivatives.

  • Ri and R 2 are individually C 8 -C 22 linear or branched saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbons, m and n are individually integers from 2 to 4, w, x, y and z are individually integers from 0 to 20 and M is individually hydrogen, an alkali metal, amine or alkanolamine.
  • Figs. 1 to 5 are graphs of dermal irritation scores of compositions of this invention and for comparative compositions.
  • compositions are especially useful in cosmetic and personal care products because of the non-irritating properties of the blend.
  • the aqueous surfactant compositions are preferably essentially free of betaine surfactants, sultaine surfactants, cocoamphodiacetates and cocoamphodipropionates.
  • One of the components is an alkyl phosphate ester that is preferably in the form of a high solids, yet pumpable aqueous composition.

  • phosphate ester compositions of low residual phosphoric acid and residual alcohol content and high in monoalkyl phosphates used to produce the aqueous pumpable surfactant composition of this invention are produced by the process disclosed in US Patents 5,463,101 , 5,550,274 and 5,554,781 , as well as in EP Patent publication number EP 0 675,076 A2, especially as described in Example 18 of the EP publication

  • Blends of linear and branched, saturated and unsaturated alcohols and their alkoxylates are permissable but at least about 50% by weight, more preferably at least about 70% by weight, and most preferably, at least about 90% by weight, of the blend should be alcohols having 12 or fewer carbon atom chains

  • the residual phosphoric acid or residual alcohol content of the pumpable aqueous surfactant compositions of this invention will generally be less than 8% by weight, preferably less than 6% by weight, and more preferably less than 5% by weight of each residual component
