Description

Mixtures of quaternary and nonionic surfactants

Field of the invention

The invention is in the field of cationically substituted glycoside surfactants, as well as a process for the preparation thereof and their use in the field of cosmetics and detergents.

State of the art

Due to their great mildness, tensides based on natural raw materials, in particular based on saccharides, enjoy great popularity. Therefore, it is of great interest to find derivatives of this class of compounds which, in addition to new properties, are still mild. Thus, cationic derivatives of alkylpolyglycosides are the subject of WO 90/15809. According to WO 90/15809, these quaternary surfactants are prepared by alkylation of quaternized saccharides, since the quaternization of alkyl polyglycosides does not work.

The disadvantage of this process lies in the starting products for the preparation of the cationic derivatives of alkylpolyglycosides. Alkyl polyglycosides are a common and commonly used class of surfactants, which could therefore be readily used as the starting material for derivatization. Unreacted educt could then remain in the product and contribute to its surfactant properties.

Therefore, the object of the present invention in the simple preparation of cationic Alkylpolyglycosidderivaten, in which no harmful by-products anfal¬ len, which would have to be removed. Furthermore, a surfactant mixture based on very skin-friendly sugar surfactants should be found which has improved foaming and emulsifying properties. Description of the invention

The alkyl and / or alkenyl oligoglycosides can be derived from aldoses or ketoses having 5 or 6 carbon atoms, preferably glucose. The preferred alkyl and / or alkenyl oligoglycosides are thus alkyl and / or alkenyl oligoglucosides. The index number p in the general formula (I) indicates the degree of oligomerization (DP), ie the distribution of mono- and oligoglycosides, and stands for a number between 1 and 10. While p in a given compound must always be an integer, and here especially If the values p = 1 to 6 can be assumed, the value p for a given alkyloligoglycoside is an analytically determined arithmetic quantity which usually represents a fractional number. Preference is given to using alkyl and / or alkenyl oligoglycosides having an average degree of oligomerization p of from 1.1 to 3.0. From an application point of view, those alkyl and / or alkenyl oligoglycosides whose degree of oligomerization is less than 1.7 and in particular between 1.2 and 1.5 are preferred. The alkyl or alkenyl radical R ¹ can be derived from primary alcohols having 4 to 11, preferably 8 to 10 carbon atoms. Typical examples are butanol, caproic alcohol, caprylic alcohol, capric alcohol and undecyl alcohol, and technical mixtures thereof, as are obtained, for example, in the hydrogenation of technical fatty acid methyl esters or in the hydrogenation of aldehydes from Roelen's oxosynthesis. Preferred are alkyloligo-glucosides of the chain length Cg-Cio (DP = 1 to 3), which are obtained as a feedstock in the distillative separation of technical Cs-Qs coconut fatty alcohol and with a content of less than 6 wt .-% Ci ₂ - Alcohol can be contaminated and alkyl oligoglucosides based on technical C _{9 /} n-oxo alcohols (DP = 1 to 3). The alkyl or alkenyl radical R ¹ can also be derived from primary alcohols having 12 to 22, preferably 12 to 14 carbon atoms. Typical examples are lauryl alcohol, myristyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol, palmoleyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, isostearyl alcohol, olefin alcohol, elaidyl alcohol, petroselinyl alcohol, arachyl alcohol, gadoleyl alcohol, behenyl alcohol, erucyl alcohol, brassidyl alcohol and technical mixtures thereof which can be obtained as described above. Alkyl oligoglucosides based on hydrogenated C _{2 /} i ₄ coconut alcohol with a DP of 1 to 3 are preferred.

Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the process is characterized in that the alkyl and / or alkenyl oligoglycosides and the quaternizing reagents of the formula (III) are used in a molar ratio of 1: 0.5 to 1: 4, particularly preferably 1 : 1 to 1: 1.5. Particularly good yields are obtained when the reaction is carried out at temperatures of 20 to 100 ⁰ C and most preferably at temperatures of 40 to 80 ° C is durchge.

The surfactant formulations obtained by this process, which comprise a mixture of alkyl- and / or alkenyl oligoglycosides of the formula (I) in combination with cationic alkyl and / or alkenyl oligoglycoside derivatives of the formula (II), may be used in combination with other conventional ingredients , such as other surfactants, emulsifiers, oil bodies, active ingredients, silicones, fats and waxes, etc. in cosmetic preparations such as shampoos and shower-baths or in cleaning preparations. However, the preparations according to the invention can also be applied to cleaning wipes directly or after processing to cosmetic preparations by adding further customary ingredients. Depending on the water content of the impregnated cleaning wipes, we speak of dry or wet wipes. These wipes can then be used either directly or after moistening to cleanse or condition skin and hair.
