Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for stamping a plastic material using a die to form a shaped article.
  • the invention relates to a process for stamping a detergent bar.
  • detergent bar is meant a tablet, cake or bar in which the level of surface active agent, which comprises soap, synthetic detergent active or a mixture thereof, is at least 20 wt. % based on the bar.
  • a preformed composition comprising all components of the bar is typically extruded from a nozzle to form a continuous "rod" which is cut into smaller pieces of predetermined length, commonly referred to as "billets.” These "billets” are then fed to a stamper or, alternatively, are given an imprint on one or more surfaces using, for example, a die of the same dimensions as the bar surface. The bar surface is hit with force by, eg., a mallet or a die in the shape of a roller.
  • Stampers typically have a die formed in two halves each with a surface which contacts the billet during the stamping operation. These surfaces are adapted to close to a preset separation distance, thereby compressing the billet between the die halves to give the bar its final shape and appearance, and then separate. Excess composition is squeezed out from the die halves as they close. This is commonly referred to as “flash.” The flash is then separated from the soap bar by transferring the bar through holes in a "deflashing plate.”
  • Conventional die stamping machines include "pin die” shaped machines in which a pair of opposing die members or die halves meet during a compaction step, and a “box die” machine in which a pair of opposing die members stamp a bar held within a through-opening in a box frame but do not meet during compaction, the peripheral face of the bar being restrained by the box frame.
  • the die halves are often each provided with a die or ejector insert. These are normally held closed within the die halve by springs but can be pushed open by compressed air or mechanical means to assist in the release of the bar from the die. During closing of the die halves a vacuum can be applied to remove air trapped in the die cavity between the detergent bar and die surface and, in the case of rotary dies, this vacuum assists in retaining the bars in place during rotation.
  • Stamping of detergent bars using a die is carried out to give the bars a reproducible shape, smooth surface and/or to imprint a design such as a logo, trade mark or the like onto at least part of a surface of the bar.
  • GB-A-746 769 discloses a die set which includes a die box and a pair of companion die members made of plastic materials comprising polymers with a specified modulus of elasticity.
  • a disadvantage of this system is that a die release agent is necessary to prevent detergent from adhering to and building up on the dies and marring the surfaces of subsequently pressed bars.
  • WO 98/11194 is directed to a device for handling plastic materials such as a stamping device for stamping detergent bars, comprising at least two elastomeric coatings of different properties and/or compositions.
  • Surface decorations such as uniform shape, smooth surface, design such as a logo, trademark or the like are said to be achievable in an easily reproducible manner in accordance with the invention.
  • An advantage of thin elastomeric coatings is said to be that they can be easily applied in a factory to a conventional die with a built in logo. In describing the figure, it is said that a logo (not shown) may be formed on one or more of the die stamping surfaces if required.
  • Roberts, U.S. Patent No. 3,534,440 discloses bodies of soap, detergent and the like which are pressed to final shape and/or size with indented or raised surface indicia in a die press.
  • a detachable and replaceable section of embossed tape bearing the indicia is mounted on either an upper die pressing face or a bottom of a cavity or both. It is said that the invention may be used for synthetic detergent bars as well.
  • Permanent indicia are said to restrict the dies to one usage run. Dies with replaceable inserts are said to be known.
  • the thin embossable material embossed with the desired indicia may be attached by pressure sensitive adhesive means to one or more pressing faces of a pair of dies.
  • Cubbitt U.S. Patent No. 3,522,633 is directed to a die member comprising a rigid metal body having a forming surface provided with a panel receiving recess wherein a plastic design-bearing panel is molded in place.
  • the panel has a surface that is substantially continuous with the die forming surface except for interruption by the design to be imparted to the article formed by the die.
  • the panel is removable and replaceable by a different mold in place panel bearing a different design.
  • the dies are for pressing of soap or similar relatively soft material into bar cakes or any desired compact form.
  • An object of the Cubbitt invention is said to be to provide a novel soap pressing die structure wherein part of the internal soap contacting and forming surface of the die is a specially formed plastic panel for providing a desired design on the pressed soap bars.
  • a further object of the invention is said to be a novel method of making a soap die member having a soap contacting and forming surface wherein an insert panel or the like is formed as by molding or casting into a recessed inset surface, the panel having an exposed surface which except for a design is essentially a continuation of the die pressing surface wherein the incorporated panel is removable for molding or casting a substitute panel. Should a different design be desired, the panel is displaced and replaced with another panel that is identical except for surface design.
  • the replaceable panel may be formed in place on the metal die member using a master blank of hard non-deformable plastic.
  • the panel material is a thermosetting material although other thermoplastic materials may also be used.
  • Pinto, U.S. Patent No. 3,127,457 discloses a fluorocarbon film used as a release agent for molding polyurethane articles .
  • Krugg, U.S. Patent No. 3,539,144 discloses a mold useful for producing polyurethane foams, which includes a structural mold shape and a coating of hot vulcanized silicon rubber disposed on the structural mold as well as a cold vulcanized silicone rubber deposited on the hot vulcanized silicon rubber.

  • the elastomeric part which contacts the soap bar during the stamping process, comprises an elastomer coating of at least 200 microns and having a modulus of elasticity within a specified range.
  • U.S. Patent No. 3,474,498 discloses an indicia forming device for attachment to an article-forming surface portion of a mold, as for imprinting 3-dimensional medallion designs, or other indicia, in articles formed in the mold, as by blow molding methods.
  • a thin, flexible pad or plate of rubber like plastic material is provided with appropriate 3-dimensional design configurations on one side thereof.
  • the Hoppes plate is positioned and adhered to an article forming surface portion of the mold.
  • An object is to provide an indicia forming device which is quickly and efficiently interchangeable with like indicia forming devices to avoid undue expense and delays in the production of the blow molded articles.
  • the medallion plate is a small rectangular piece of thermoplastic of thermo resin sheet material and may be firmly, but removably adhesively attached to the article forming wall surface of the mold path. When replacement or renewal of the medallion plate is required, it may be peeled, scraped or otherwise removed from the mold cavity surface. It is said that the invention permits the dealer indicia to be changed as often as desired with only brief interruptions in production of the blow- molded articles.

  • WO 99/23198 discloses a soap mold for pressing or stamping soap bars. Soap molds are described as having at least one dished cavity to accommodate one-half of the soap bar. An elastomeric part of the soap mold comes in contact with the soap mass to enable the soap to be more readily released.
  • the soap mold of the '198 invention is characterized in that it has a coating that is insertable into the cavity as a prefabricated detachable insert. The insert does not adhere to the mold, but can be removed from the mold substantially in one piece once it has become worn or damaged.
  • the insert of the invention can usefully be provided with markings, for example the name of the soap.
  • the insert of the invention has at least one opening for an ejector pin which passes through the opening.
  • the ejector pin ejects soap from the mold after pressing or stamping.
  • the ejector is also coated.
  • the ejector with the coating of the invention can also be formed as a plate or insert.
  • Plastics which may be used to fabricate soap mold inserts can generally be elastomers or non-elastomers.
  • Bakewell, U.S. Patent No. 170,464 discloses a jointed mold with an interchangeable plug for producing words, figures or designs upon the gross article.
  • the present invention is directed to a modular mold design for molding a detergent bar die elastomeric layer in which the logo forming parts are removable to allow rapid die logo changes without investment in new dies or molds or re- machining and to a process for its use, especially for making elastomeric liners for soap/detergent bar dies.
  • the mold and dies can be returned to the original design at no additional cost.
  • a key benefit is the capability to rapidly redesign and/or customize soap bars at substantially lower cost.
  • the invention provides a low cost rapid system of changing soap bar logo designs.
  • the invention preferably utilizes a mold in which the part(s) that form the logo on an elastomer die surface (inserts) comprise one or more separate pieces secured in a common mold body.

  • the elastomeric liners for the dies are then remolded to provide new linings for the stamping surfaces.
  • the invention reduces the time and cost currently required to deliver a bar logo change. Preferably, only the die mold inserts are changed; the dies and majority of the mold are common to each design. This allows bar logo flexibility at a fraction of the resource of the existing procedure.
  • the invention is also directed to the process of using the molds to make inserts for stamping soap detergent bars of the invention.
  • the invention is also directed to elastomer layers having surface indicia thereon, dies coated with such layers and the process of using such dies and layers to stamp detergent bars and thereby impart to said bars surface indicia or ornamentation from the elastomeric layer.

  • elastomeric according to the invention is meant a material as defined in ISO (International Standard Organization) 1382 as an “elastomer,” or a “rubber.” Also included in the definition of “elastomeric” materials according to the invention are thermoplastic elastomers and copolymers and blends of elastomers, thermoplastic elastomers and rubbers.
  • Elastomers are defined as polymers with long flexible chains, independent in the raw material and transformed via vulcanizing or crosslinking agents which introduce crosslinks and form a crosslinked network structure.
  • the network structure retains the movement of the macro- molecular chain molecules and as a result returns rapidly to approximately its initial dimension and shape after deformation by a force and release of the force. With increasing temperature an elastomer goes through a rubbery phase after softening and retains its elasticity and elastic modulus until its decomposition temperature is reached.
  • Thermoplastic elastomers comprise amorphous and crystalline phases.
  • the amorphous phase has a softening range below ambient temperature and thus acts as an elastic spring while the crystalline segments whose softening range is above ambient temperature, act as crosslinking sites.
  • the elastomeric material according to the invention is selected from those classes described in American Society for Testing and Materials D1418 which include:
  • Unsaturated carbon chain elastomers including natural rubbers e.g. Standard Malaysian Rubber; butadiene e.g. "BUNA' type ex Bunaweke Huls; and butadiene acrylonitrile copolymer e.g.
  • Saturated carbon chain elastomers including ethylene-propylene types e.g. "Nordel” ex DuPont and fluorine-containing types e.g. "Viton"
  • Substituted silicone elastomers including liquid silicone rubbers e.g. Silastic 9050/50 P (A + B) ex Dow Corning.
  • Elastomers containing carbon, nitrogen and oxygen in the polymer chain including polyurethanes e.g. polyurethanes ex Belzona.
  • the "elastomeric" material may be pretreated, such as by forming a solution of a commercially available elastomer, prior to it being placed in a mold.
  • the elastomers, rubbers, and copolymers and blends thereof are generally cured or crosslinked, in-situ in the mold.
  • the components including the base elastomeric material, cross-linking agents and other materials such as accelerators may be mixed prior to application to the mold. Once applied to the mold the coatings are cured in-situ. This may be aided by the application of heat or other accelerating processes, for example pressure; radiation or UV light.
  • the elastomeric material may be applied as either a liquid or a semi-solid.
  • the two halves of the mold are held apart at a predetermined spacing to permit the elastomer to occupy the space between the two parts.
  • the mold is filled with elastomer under pressure.
  • materials may be dissolved with an appropriate solvent, applied to the die and the solvent subsequently driven off.
  • Thermoplastic materials may be heated to melt condition, applied to the mold, cooled and resolidified.
  • Materials suitable as elastomeric coatings in the present invention will preferably have a modulus of elasticity in the range of 0.1 to 50 MPa, most preferably 1 to 35 MPa.
  • the modulus of elasticity of an elastomeric coating may be measured by recording the force required to indent the coating as a function of the indentation depth.
  • an indentor with a spherical tip may be employed and the slope, s, of the force as a function of the indentation depth to the power 3/2 is determined.
  • the indentation depth is the movement of an indentor into the coating after it first contacts the surface of the coating.
  • the compliance C is determined by compressing the indentor against a rigid surface and recording the apparent displacement as a function of the applied force which had a slope equal to C.
  • the modulus of elasticity E is calculated from the following expression
  • the above indentation method may give falsely large values of the elastic modulus due to the influence of the rigid material onto which the coating is applied.
  • the contact radius of the indentor with the coating does not exceed about 1/10 of the thickness of the coating.
  • the contact radius, a is related to the indentation depth by the following expression
  • nanoindentor For coatings less than 200 ⁇ m, it is recommended that a nanoindentor is used which is capable of measuring indentation forces at small indentation depths using indentors with tips having a small radius.
  • An example of such equipment is the "Nanolndenter II" (Nano-instruments) .
  • the alternative is to make thick (greater than 200 ⁇ m) test coatings so that more conventional measurement equipment such as an Instron tester, (eg Model 5566) may be employed.
  • the molds and the dies comprise a rigid material selected from metals and their alloys, for example brass and other copper alloys, aluminum, and steels including carbon and stainless steel; and other non-elastomeric materials such as thermosetting and thermoplastic resins, for example polyester, epoxy resins, furan resins; hard cast polyurethanes; ceramics; composites and laminates.
  • metals and their alloys for example brass and other copper alloys, aluminum, and steels including carbon and stainless steel
  • other non-elastomeric materials such as thermosetting and thermoplastic resins, for example polyester, epoxy resins, furan resins; hard cast polyurethanes; ceramics; composites and laminates.
  • Additional materials for example fillers, can be added to the elastomeric material to modify its mechanical and processing properties.
  • the effects of filler addition depends on the mechanical and chemical interaction between the elastomeric material and the filler.
  • Fillers can be used to modify the elastomeric material such that desirable properties, for example tear resistance, are achieved.
  • Suitable fillers include carbon blacks; silicas; silicates; and organic fillers such as styrene or phenolic resins .
  • An edge or flange may extend from the die wall to cover the thickness of the cavity coating and preferably the thickness of the coating outside the cavity. The dimensions of the edge for optimal performance are therefore determined by the desired elastomeric layer thickness.
  • the thickness and hardness of the elastomeric coating may be varied according to the detergent bar composition, processing temperature and/or process parameters such as the shape of the cavity in the die halves, speed of the stamping equipment and separation distance of the die halves, in order to achieve the desired result, for example, good release of the detergent bar from the die.
  • acceptable die release may be achieved with a thicker elastomeric coating and/or one having a lower modulus of elasticity.
  • the process of the invention may be used to stamp a detergent bar comprising a surface active agent which comprises substantially soap or a synthetic detergent or a mixture of soap and synthetic detergent. It finds particular application in the stamping of soft and/or tacky detergent and/or mild bars which contain synthetic surfactants, translucent and transparent soap bars having a reduced fatty matter content, for example, in the range 63- 78% wt . with respect to the total bar weight, and those bars containing skin beneficial agents such as humectants, polyols, oils, fatty acids and fatty alcohols.
  • the elastomeric layer is bonded to the die stamping surface by mechanical and/or chemical means to increase the adhesion between the die and the layer.
  • Figure 1 shows die halves 10 comprised of individual dies 12. Each die half is provided, on the bar stamping surface 14, with an elastomeric coating 16 respectively (Fig. 4). Elastomeric coating is also provided on the non-stamping surface 18 of the die halves. One die half is provided with a logo 20 on the elastomeric layer. (In some cases both die halves will incorporate a logo) .
  • Die 12 includes metal edge 30 which projects inwardly from the upper periphery of the detergent bar cavity 32. As seen in Fig. 4, edge 30 covers the upper edge of the generally vertically ascending section of the coating 16.* Preferably, surface 34 of edge 30 which faces the cavity 32 is at least flush with the surface 36 of elastomer 16 which likewise faces cavity 32. Still more preferred is an arrangement wherein edge 34 of metal edge 30 extends slightly beyond the surface 36 of coating 16.
  • the die is constructed so that the soft elastomer near the cutting edge is not damaged when the die cuts into the soap. This is accomplished by shielding the soft elastomer near the die edge with a rigid and stronger material. The shielding acts like an umbrella around the die edge slightly overlapping the soft elastomer preferably by approximately 0.001" to 0.015". This protects the soft material from excess forces in shear and tension which would accelerate damage to the soft material and render the die inoperative.
  • the stress relieving edge of the die has been described as being metal, this will generally depend on the material from which the die is made and other materials may be equally suitable. Typically, the edge will be the same as the material from which the die is made. However the edge will typically be fairly rigid to protect the elastomer.
  • the invention may be used with conventional stamping equipment, such as Binacchi USN 100.
  • the elastomeric layer 16 is made using mold 80 (Figs. 5 and 6)
  • Mold 80 includes replaceable section 82 bearing indicia 84. Mold 80 imparts to the elastomeric layer indicia, formed by contact of indicia 84 with the forming elastomeric layer.
  • elastomeric layer 36 includes indicia 20 which upon contact with the forming soap and/or detergent bar forms indicia in the soap/detergent bar.
  • mold section 82 is slid outwardly and a replacement section with a new logo or other surface indicia is slid into the mold in its place. Stamping of a soap and/or detergent bar with a die lined with an elastomeric formed from the mold will bear the new logo or other surface decoration.
  • a range of die halves are manufactured in carbon steel and spark eroded to a range of surface roughness values (Ra) degreased with acetone, treated with a primer and lined with a range of elastomeric materials.
  • a series of brass die halves are also used in the examples. Similarly, these are degreased with acetone, treated with a primer and then elastomeric layers are applied.
  • Elastomeric layers are formed from polyurethane in molds according to the invention.
  • the polyurethane is prepared starting with
  • the bar compositions used in the examples are as follows Formulation A % wt .
  • Cocoamidopropyl betaine 5.00 Polyethylene glycol, M.Wt. 33.12
  • the dies contain metal edges as illustrated at 34 in Fig 4. It is found that the replaceable sections 82 of the molds may be readily replaced with sections leaving different surface ornamentation to yield well-formed, but different surface ornamentation in the soap/detergent bars. It should be understood, of course, that the specific forms of the invention herein illustrated and described are intended to be representative only as certain changes may be made therein without departing from the clear teachings of the disclosure. Accordingly, reference should be made to the following appended claims in determining the full scope of the invention.
