Definitions
- the present invention relates to detergent compositions, particularly laundry detergents and in particular to detergents comprising lipolytic or lipase enzymes.
- bleaching systems for assisting in stain removal of articles being washed.
- These bleaching systems commonly comprise a source of hydrogen peroxide such as perborate or percarbonate.
- the performance of hydrogen peroxide bleaches is often enhanced by use of a peracid which may be pre-formed or a peracid precursor (often called a bleach activator) in addition to the hydrogen peroxide (or oxygen source).
- a peracid precursor often called a bleach activator
- oxygen source oxygen source
- the bleach activator reacts with an excess of hydrogen peroxide to form a peracid bleaching species.
- Typical laundry formulations use an excess of hydrogen peroxide source.
- the most common bleach activator is TAED (tetra acetyl ethylene diamine), the active bleach species that is formed on reaction with hydrogen peroxide being peracetic acid.
- Other activators result in bleaching species that have a longer carbon chain and that are hydrophobic. These are desirable for producing effective bleaching, especially on oily stains.
- nonanoyl oxybenzene sulphonate This bleach activator reacts to form a reactive bleaching species pemonanoic acid.
- this bleaching species will react with the bleach activator itself to form a di-C 9 acyl peroxide; other hydrophobic bleach activators react to form their corresponding diacyl peroxides in the same way.
- These species are strong bleaching species and are useful in the washing process, but they are insoluble. In some types of washing machines, there may be a tendency for these compounds to settle out in the sump of washing machines as the wash water drains out of the washing machine.
- the problem addressed by this invention is how to alleviate this problem such that the benefits of hydrophobic bleaches may be achieved whilst at the same time minimizing or preventing damage to washing equipment.
- Lipase enzymes have been used in detergents since the late 1980s for removal of fatty soils by breakdown of fatty soils into tri-glycerides.
- lipase enzymes such as Lipolase (trade name, Novozymes) worked particularly effectively at the lower moisture levels of the drying phase of the wash process. These enzymes tended to produce significant cleaning only in the second wash step because the active site of the enzyme was occupied by water during the washing process, so that fat breakdown was significant only on soils remaining on laundered clothes during the drying stage, the broken down fats then being removed in the next washing step.
- lipases have been developed that also work effectively during the wash phase of the cleaning process, so that as well as cleaning in the second washing step, a significant improvement in cleaning effect due to lipase enzyme can be found in the first wash-cycle.
- first wash lipases examples include certain variants of lipolase (wild-type Humicola lanuginosa) which should comprise one or more substitutions with positive amino acids near the N-terminal in the three-dimensional structure.
- the variants should further comprise a peptide addition at the C-terminal and/or should meet certain limitations on electrically charged amino acids at positions 90-101 and 210.
- the present inventors have found that using a combination of these first wash enzymes with a specific type of detergent formulation enables use of these hydrophobic bleach activators to achieve good stain removal, whilst reducing any of the disadvantages set out above.
- the present inventors have found that when a first wash lipase is used in a detergent composition in conjunction with high reserve alkalinity and with a molar ratio of available oxygen (from the peroxide source): peracid of from 2:1 to 8:1, diacyl peroxide formation is controlled such that the disadvantages of this type of hydrophobic peracid or peracid precursor are alleviated.
- the detergent compositions of the invention comprise less than 15 wt% builders selected from aluminosilicate (zeolite) builder and/or phosphate builder. In a further preferred aspect of the invention, the compositions comprise less than 10 wt% zeolite and/or phosphate builder, or even less than 5 wt% or 4 wt % zeolite and/or phosphate builder.

- the inorganic perhydrate salts are typically incorporated into the detergent compositions of the invention as a crystalline solid, which may be optionally coated for example to achieve improved storage stability. Suitable coatings comprise inorganic salts such as alkali metal silicate, carbonate or borate salts or mixture thereof, or organic materials such as waxes, oils or fatty soaps.
- Suitable examples include decanoyl oxybenzoic acid or salt thereof, sodium or potassium salts of dodecanonyl oxybenzene sulphonate, decanoyl oxybenzenesulponate, 3,5,5-trimethyl hexanoyloxybenzene sulphonate, or even more preferred nonanoyloxybenzene sulphonate (NOBS).

- This structural modification could be the introduction of a methyl or ethyl moiety in the vicinity of the head group of the anionic detersive surfactant, as this can lead to a more calcium tolerant anionic detersive surfactant due to steric hindrance of the head group, which may reduce the affinity of the anionic detersive surfactant for complexing with free calcium cations in such a manner as to cause precipitation out of solution.

- the weight ratio of non-alkoxylated anionic detersive surfactant to alkoxylated anionic detersive surfactant is less than 5:1, or less than 3:1, or less than 1.7:1, or even less than 1.5:1.

- these latter non-ionic surfactants are Lutensol AO30 and similar materials disclosed in WO04/041982 These may be beneficial as they have good lime soap dispersant properties.
- the non-ionic detersive surfactant not only provides additional soil cleaning performance but may also increase the anionic detersive surfactant activity by making the anionic detersive surfactant less likely to precipitate out of solution in the presence of free calcium cations.
