  • the dispersion may contain besides silanized colloidal silica particles also, at least to some extent, non-silanized colloidal silica particles depending on the size of the silica particles, weight ratio of silane to silica, type of silane compound, reaction conditions etc, Suitably, at least about 40 of the colloidal silica particles are silanized (silane-modified), preferably at least about 65, more preferably at least about 90, and most preferably at least about 99 wt%.
  • the dispersion may comprise besides silane in the form of silane groups or silane derivatives bound or linked to the surface of the silica particles also at least to some extent freely dispersed unbound silane compounds.
  • At least about 40 preferably, at least about 60, more preferably at least about 75, even more preferably at least about 90, and most preferably at least about 95 wt% of the silane compounds are bound or linked to the surface of the silica particles.
  • At least about 1 % by number of the silanol surface groups on the colloidal silica particles are capable of binding or linking to silane groups on the silane compounds, preferably at least about 5 %, more preferably at least about 10 %, even more preferably at least about 30 %, and most preferably at least about 50 % bind or link to a silane group.
  • the weight ratio of the total silane content to the total silica content in the dispersion is from about 0.01 to about 1.5, more preferably from about 0.05 to about 1, and most preferably from about 0.1 to about 0.5.
  • the total content of silica comprises silica in modified silanized silica particles and non-modified silica particles which also may be present in the prepared dispersion.
  • the total content of silane is based on all freely dispersed silane and all linked or bound silane groups or derivatives.
  • the detergent dispersion can be used for the treatment of hard surfaces, but also for the treatment of fibre and textile surfaces.
  • Hard surfaces are, in particular, surfaces encountered in the home, i.e. surfaces of stone, ceramics, wood, plastics, metals, such as stainless steel, incl. floor coverings, such as carpets, etc.
  • the cleaner dispersion can be of different types; e.g. glass cleaners, all purpose cleaners, bath cleaners, kitchen cleaners etc.
  • Textile surfaces include any synthetic and natural textiles, the particles used in accordance with the invention preferably being used for the treatment of cotton and cotton/wool blends in e.g. for the pretreatment and aftertreatment of textiles and for the washing of textiles.
  • the particles may also be used for textile treatment in the textile industry, in which case they may be used both for the permanent and for the temporary treatment of textiles.
  • the detergent dispersion is preferably also used as hand dishwashing detergents, machine dishwashing detergents, machine dishwashing cleaners and rinse aids.
  • the detergent dispersion may also be further used as automobile and paint cleaners for manual use and for automatic use in car washes.
  • the detergent dispersion may also be used in anti-soil treatment for e.g. coil-coating.
  • Table 1 lists the liquid detergents used in the following examples.
  • Table 1 Liquid Detergents No Name Type - surface Content Content (%) 1 Ariel® Colour(liquid) Laundry detergent Cat+Non, So, An ⁇ 5, 5-15, 15-30 2 Ajax® Double Action Glass cleaner(pH ⁇ 8) An ⁇ 5 3 Ajax® Allrengöring APC (pH-7) An + Non + So ⁇ 5 4 DER GENERAL® APC(pH ⁇ 10) An+So, Non, H. A.
  • Table 2 lists the silica sols used in the following examples, some of which have been silane modified by addition of Silquest A-187 (gamma-glycidoxypropoxytrimethoxysilane) available from General Electric Silicones.
  • Silquest A-187 gamma-glycidoxypropoxytrimethoxysilane
  • Table 2 lists the silica sols used in the following examples, some of which have been silane modified by addition of Silquest A-187 (gamma-glycidoxypropoxytrimethoxysilane) available from General Electric Silicones.
  • Silquest A-187 gamma-glycidoxypropoxytrimethoxysilane
  • the particle size D p for each sol in table 2 is based on the specific surface area on the non-modified sol for each particle size respectively.
  • the colloidal silica dispersions as listed in table 2 were added to the liquid detergents as listed in table 1 under good agitation in accordance with table 3.
  • the amount of detergent, to which the colloidal silica dispersion is added, is 100 g if not stated otherwise.
  • the stability is controlled initially and finally after one month's storage at 55 °C for precipitation and separation (inhomogeneous sample). The stability was controlled by optical inspection.
  • Table 3 Detergent dispersions and stability No Sol Amount of added sol product (g) Detergent (as in table 1) Initial Stability Final Stability (one month, 55 °C) 1 5 1.0 1 OK precipitated* (separation) 2 8 1.0 1 OK OK** 3 5 2.0 2 precipitated --- 4 6 2.4 2 OK precipitated 5 7 2.0 2 OK OK 6 8 2.0 2 OK OK 7 5 2.0 3 precipitated --- 8 8 2.0 3 OK OK 9 9 9 3.3 4 OK precipitated (26 d, 20 °C) 10 8 3.3 4 OK OK 11 5 2.0 5 precipitated --- 12 8 2.0 5 OK OK 13 5 2.0 6 precipitated --- 14 9 10.0 6 OK precipitated 15 10 8.0 6 OK OK 16 5 10.0 7 precipitated --- 17 6 12.0 7 OK precipitated (1 day) 18 8 10.0 7 OK OK 19 12 2.0 7 OK OK 20 12 10.0 7 OK OK OK 21 6 2.4 8 precipitated --- 22 3 4.0 8 precipitated --- 23 4 2.2 8 OK OK 24 1 4.0 8 precipitated --- 25 2 5.0 8 OK
  • silane modified sols in the detergent application had the same technical effect as can be seen from table 4 below.
  • 1.5 g silica sol aqueous product was added to 100 g Ajax Double Action (glass cleaner) at good agitation at room temperature. The cleaner was then used as described in the method below.
  • Exterior windows were used in the test.
  • the detergents (with the silica sol) were sprayed onto vertical windows and the surplus was then removed by a rubber scraper.
  • the windows were let to dry for 5 minutes.
  • Standard soil (Krefeld) solution (1 %) was sprayed onto a part of the cleaned window. Water was also sprayed onto another part of the cleaned window.
  • the spread and wetting of the soil were studied (spread and soil release). The hydrophily was indicated by the wetting of the sprayed water.
  • the windows were let to dry for another 5 minutes. Water was sprayed onto the windows.
  • the soil removal was studied. As can be clearly seen in table 4, the soil removal, release, and spread of detergent dispersions 2-4 are much better than reference 1 without silica sol.
