EP1981936A1 - Fluid reservoir - Google Patents

Abstract

Fluid reservoirs which are based on polymer substrates and are capable of storing large amounts of fluids are described. The storage is reliable and the reemergence from the liquid reservoir is readily controllable, for example via the temperature or via mechanical actions. It is thus possible to achieve retardation of the fluid release. Also described are processes for producing such fluid reservoirs and also their use, for example in washing or cleaning compositions.

Description

 fluid reservoir

The invention relates to a fluid reservoir based on a polymer substrate, its uses and a method for producing such fluid reservoir.

For many applications, there is a need for particulate carriers that are capable of receiving and, depending on the application, storing and returning fluids as needed.

For this purpose, there are many models in the prior art. As a rule, certain core materials, such as e.g. Zeolites, with appropriate liquids, e.g. Perfume oil impregnated. Often, such a system is still coated to prevent the liquid from leaking undesirably.

However, there continues to be a need for corresponding systems which are able to pick up and store large quantities of liquids, to store them safely and to release them only after a delay. The satisfaction of such need was the object of this invention.

This object has been surprisingly achieved by the subject matter of the invention, namely a particulate fluid reservoir, which is constructed from a porous, particulate polymer substrate which is loaded with 5 wt .-% to 95 wt .-%, based on the total weight of the loaded polymer substrate, a guest mixture is, wherein this guest mixture a) is highly viscous or solid as such at temperatures ≤ 20 ° C, b) contains fluids and at least one flowable at elevated temperatures additive having a melting or pouring point in the range of 25 ° C to 120 ⁰ C. , c) already at temperatures below 120 ° C substantially undecomposed into a molten state.

By the particulate fluid reservoir is thus meant a porous polymer substrate in which large quantities of liquid, e.g. Perfume, safe and permanently immobilized. The release of the liquid may e.g. be achieved by increasing the temperature and / or mechanical stress. So it is possible to create a kind of liquid depot, which can be opened if necessary.

The fluid reservoir can be advantageously incorporated easily into various matrices, even into liquid matrices, without there being any significant disadvantageous interaction with the matrix. The term "essentially undecomposed" takes into account the fact that some materials or compounds or substances can decompose upon the supply of thermal energy, ie that the material in question is so altered in its structure by the influence of temperature, that it is thereby converted into a no longer suitable for its original purpose condition.

In contrast, the guest mixtures are preferably characterized by the fact that they go substantially undecomposed in a molten state. This means that they do not undergo major degradation reactions at the specific temperature load necessary to bring them to the molten state, so that a guest mixture according to the invention, even after its conversion to a flowable state and the subsequent return to the solid state preferably remains largely unchanged. By contrast, for example, there is an object which undergoes decomposition upon being transferred to the molten state, so that the object, after being returned to the solid state, is clearly different from its initial state, e.g. in terms of its appearance, its feel, its smell or other aspects.

A guest mixture shall preferably be as high viscosity, when the Brookfield viscosity at 20 ⁰ C exceeds a value of 2500 mPas, preferably from 5000 mPas, in particular from 7 500 mPas, with preference 10000 mPas and especially preferably from 25000 mPas. (Viscosity Measurement in a Brookfield Viscometer Model DV II at 20 rpm with Spindle 3)

The fluid is preferably a liquid (at T = 20 ° C), preferably containing a) liquid fragrances (perfume oils) and / or b) liquid detergents and cleaning agent ingredients, such as preferably surfactants, in particular nonionic surfactants, silicone oils, paraffins and / or c) liquid cosmetic ingredients, such as preferably oils and / or d) liquid non-pharmaceutical additives or active ingredients and / or e) mixtures of the aforementioned.

Most preferred are fragrances and nonionic surfactants, especially in admixture. For the purposes of this invention, the terms "fragrance (s)" and "perfume oil (s)" are used synonymously. This means, in particular, all those substances or mixtures thereof that are perceived by humans and animals as odor, in particular perceived by humans as a fragrance.

As perfume oils, for example, individual fragrance compounds, for example, the synthetic products of the ester type, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, alcohols and hydrocarbons used become. Fragrance compounds of the ester type are, for example, benzyl acetate, phenoxyethyl isobutyrate, p-tert-butylcyclohexyl acetate, linalyl acetate, dimethylbenzylcarbinyl acetate, phenylethyl acetate, linalyl benzoate, benzyl formate, ethyl methylphenylglycinate,

Allylcyclohexylpropionate, styrallylpropionate and benzylisalicylate. The ethers include, for example, benzyl ethyl ether, to the aldehydes e.g. the linear alkanals having 8 -18 C atoms, citral, citronellal, citronellyloxyacetaldehyde, cyclamen aldehyde, hydroxycitronellel, lilial and bourgeonal, to the ketones e.g. the ionones, isomethylionone and methyl cedryl ketone; the alcohols anethole, citronellol, eugenol, geraniol, linalool, phenylethyl alcohol and terpineol; the hydrocarbons mainly include the terpenes and balsams. Preferably, however, mixtures of different fragrances are used, which together produce an attractive fragrance.

The perfume oils may, of course, also contain natural fragrance mixtures, such as are available from plant or animal sources, e.g. Pine, citrus, jasmine, lily, rose or ylang-ylang oil. Lower volatility volatile oils, most commonly used as aroma components, are useful as perfume oils, e.g. Sage oil, chamomile oil, clove oil, lemon balm oil, mint oil, cinnamon leaf oil, lime blossom oil, juniper berry oil, vetiver oil, galbanum oil and ladanum oil.

According to a further preferred embodiment, the optional coating of the fluid reservoir according to the invention is pH and / or temperature and / or ionic strength-sensitive or contains pH and / or temperature and / or ionic strength-sensitive materials.

By the term of pH sensitivity, temperature sensitivity and / or ionic strength sensitivity is meant that the coating or the materials forming the coating with a change in the pH, the temperature and / or the ionic strength in the environment, which is exposed to the coating (eg a wash liquor), (a) undergoes a change (increase or decrease) in solubility (preferably in water); and or

(b) experience a change (increase or decrease) in diffusion density; and or

In addition to the options (a) to (d) mentioned above, the temperature sensitivity also has the additional option (e) according to which the coating or the materials forming the coating change the physical state from solid to liquid when the temperature changes or vice versa, ie the materials melt or solidify.

For this purpose, suitable coating materials for the purposes of the invention may be all those materials whose integrity is a function of the temperature and / or the pH and / or the ionic strength, or also those materials which are subject to mechanical stress as described e.g. occur during an automatic laundry process, lose their integrity. Advantageously, the pH sensitivity of the (optional) coating can be used. The (optional) coating may e.g. be designed so that it dissolves in whole or in part if the pH falls below a critical mark. This can be done in the example of a washing process when the alkaline wash water is removed from the machine and fresh water introduced into the machine, preferably in the rinse cycle of the washing process. On contact with the fresh water, the coating then lose its integrity, in whole or in part, making it possible to penetrate the granules for the water. The pH in question, in which the coating is completely or partially disintegrated, can be adjusted as desired, so that the material, for example, loses all or part of its integrity if the pH value is e.g. below 9.0, but remains substantially inert as long as the pH is above 10.0.

The term "inert" is understood according to the invention in the usual sense, ie in such a way that a physical or chemical reaction of the material of the coating with the surrounding environment does not occur substantially, but the material of the coating is physically and chemically resistant to this, so that the granules from penetration through the environment, eg the wash liquor is substantially protected.

"Polyvinyl alcohols" (abbreviated PVAL, occasionally PVOH) is the name for polymers of the general structure

[-CH ₂ -CH (OH) -J _n in small proportions also structural units of the type

[-CH ₂ -CH (OH) -CH (OH) -CH ₂ ].

Commercially available polyvinyl alcohols, which are available as white-yellowish powders or granules with degrees of polymerization in the range of about 100 to 2500 (molar masses of about 4000 to 100,000 g / mol), have degrees of hydrolysis of 98-99 or 87-89 mol%. , so still contain a residual content of acetyl groups. The polyvinyl alcohols are characterized by the manufacturer by indicating the degree of polymerization of the starting polymer, the degree of hydrolysis, the saponification number or the solution viscosity.

Depending on the degree of hydrolysis, polyvinyl alcohols are soluble in water and a few highly polar organic solvents (formamide, dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide); They are not attacked by (chlorinated) hydrocarbons, esters, fats and oils. Polyvinyl alcohols are classified as toxicologically safe and are biologically at least partially degradable. The water solubility can be reduced by aftertreatment with aldehydes (acetalization), by complexation with Ni or Cu salts or by treatment with dichromates, boric acid or borax. The coatings of polyvinyl alcohol are largely impermeable to gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, helium, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, but allow water vapor to pass through.

In the context of the present invention, preference is given to coatings which at least partially comprise a polyvinyl alcohol whose degree of hydrolysis is advantageously from 70 to 100 mol%, preferably from 80 to 90 mol%, particularly preferably from 81 to 89 mol% and in particular from 82 to 88 mol% is. In a preferred embodiment, the film material used comprises at least 20% by weight, more preferably at least 40% by weight, very preferably at least 60% by weight and in particular at least 80% by weight, of a polyvinyl alcohol whose Hydrolysis degree 70 to 100 mol%, preferably 80 to 90 mol%, particularly preferably 81 to 89 mol% and in particular 82 to 88 mol%. Preferably, the entire coating is at least 20 wt .-%, more preferably at least 40th % By weight, very particularly preferably at least 60% by weight and in particular at least 80% by weight, of a polyvinyl alcohol whose degree of hydrolysis is from 70 to 100 mol%, preferably from 80 to 90 mol%, particularly preferably from 81 to 89 Mol% and in particular 82 to 88 mol%.

Polyvinyl alcohols of a specific molecular weight range are preferably used as coating materials, it being preferred according to the invention that the film material comprises a polyvinyl alcohol whose molecular weight is in the range of 10,000 to 100,000 gmol ^-1 , preferably 11,000 to 90,000 gmol ^-1 , particularly preferably 12,000 to 80,000 gmol ^"1 and in particular from 13,000 to 70,000 gmol ^'1 is located.

The polyvinyl alcohols described above are widely available commercially, for example under the trade name Mowiol ^® (Clariant). Particularly suitable in the context of the present invention, polyvinyl alcohols are, for example, Mowiol ^® 3-83, Mowiol ^® 4-88, Mowiol ^® 5-88, Mowiol ^® 8-88 and L648, L734, Mowiflex LPTC KSE 221 as well as the ex Compounds of Texas polymer such as Vinex 2034.

Further polyvinyl alcohols which are particularly suitable as coating material are shown in the following table:

Other than Coating Material suitable polyvinyl alcohols are ELVANOL ^® 51-05, 52-22, 50-42, 85- 82, 75-15, T-25, T-66, 90-50 (trademark of Du Pont), ALCOTEX 72.5 ^®, 78, B72, F80 / 40, F88 / 4, F88 / 26, F88 / 40, F88 / 47 (trademark of Harlow Chemical Co.), ^® Gonozoϊde NK-05, A-300, AH-22, C-500, GH-20, GL-03, GM-14L, KA-20, KA-500, KH-20, KP-06, N-300, NH-26, NM11Q, KZ-06 (Trademark of Nippon Gohsei KK). Also suitable are ERKOL types from Wacker.

The water solubility of PVAL can be altered by post-treatment with aldehydes (acetalization) or ketones (ketalization). Polyvinyl alcohols which are acetalated or ketalized with the aldehyde or keto groups of saccharides or polysaccharides or mixtures thereof have proven to be particularly advantageous and particularly advantageous on account of their pronounced cold water solubility. To use extremely advantageous are the reaction products of PVAL and starch. Furthermore, the water solubility can be changed by complexing with Ni or Cu salts or by treatment with dichromates, boric acid, borax and thus set specifically to desired values. Films made of PVAL are largely impermeable to gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, helium, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, but allow water vapor to pass through.

Further preferred coating materials are characterized in that they comprise polyvinylpyrrolidones. Polyvinylpyrrolidones, referred to as PVP for short, can be described by the following general formula:

PVP are prepared by radical polymerization of 1-vinylpyrrolidone. Commercially available PVP have molecular weights in the range of preferably about 2,500 to 750,000 g / mol and are offered as white, hygroscopic powders or as aqueous solutions.

Other preferred coating materials are characterized by comprising polyethylene oxides. Polyethylene oxides, PEOX for short, are polyalkylene glycols of the general formula

H- [O-CH ₂ -CH ₂ J _n -OH which are technically produced by basicly catalyzed polyaddition of ethylene oxide (oxirane) in mostly small amounts of water-containing systems with ethylene glycol as the starting molecule. They have molar masses in the range of about 200 to 5,000,000 g / mol, corresponding to degrees of polymerization n of about 5 to> 100,000. Polyethylene oxides have an extremely low concentration of reactive hydroxy end groups and show only weak glycol properties.

Other preferred coating materials are characterized by comprising gelatin. Gelatin is a polypeptide (molecular weight: about 15,000 to> 250,000 g / mol), which is obtained primarily by hydrolysis of the collagen contained in the skin and bones of animals under acidic or alkaline conditions. The amino acid composition of gelatin is broadly similar to that of the collagen from which it was obtained and varies depending on its provenance.

In the context of the present invention, coating materials which comprise a polymer from the group starch and starch derivatives, cellulose and cellulose derivatives, in particular methyl cellulose, and mixtures thereof are also preferred.

Starch is a homoglycan, wherein the glucose units are linked α-glycosidically. Starch is composed of two components of different molecular weight: from about 20 to 30% straight-chain amylose (MW about 50,000 to 150,000) and 70 to 80% branched-chain amylopectin (MW about 300,000 to 2,000,000). In addition, small amounts of lipids, phosphoric acid and cations are still included. Whereas the amylose forms long, helical, entangled chains with about 300 to 1,200 glucose molecules as a result of the 1,4-position bond, the amylopectin branch branches off into a branch-like structure after an average of 25 glucose building blocks by 1, 6 binding with about 1,500 to 12,000 molecules of glucose. In addition to pure starch, starch derivatives which are obtainable from starch by polymer-analogous reactions are also suitable for the preparation of water-soluble coatings in the context of the present invention. Such chemically modified starches include, for example, products of esterifications or etherifications in which hydroxy hydrogen atoms have been substituted. But even starches in which the hydroxy groups have been replaced by functional groups that are not bound by an oxygen atom, can be used as starch derivatives. The group of starch derivatives includes, for example, alkali starches, carboxymethyl starch (CMS), starch esters and ethers, and amino starches.

Pure cellulose has the formal gross composition (C ₆ HioO ₅ ) _n and is formally a β-1,4-polyacetal of cellobiose, which in turn is composed of two molecules of glucose. Suitable celluloses consist of about 500 to 5,000 glucose units and therefore have average molecular weights of 50,000 to 500,000. Cellulose-based disintegrating agents which can be used in the context of the present invention are also cellulose derivatives obtainable by polymer-analogous reactions of cellulose. Such chemically modified celluloses include, for example, products of esterifications or etherifications in which hydroxy hydrogen atoms have been substituted. Celluloses in which the hydroxy groups have been replaced by functional groups which are not bonded via an oxygen atom can also be used as cellulose derivatives. The group of cellulose derivatives includes, for example, alkali metal celluloses, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), cellulose esters and ethers, and aminocelluloses.

Furthermore, a washing or cleaning agent containing fluid reservoirs according to the invention is a highly preferred article of the invention Therefore, the following ingredients of detergents or cleaning agents are described in more detail, which may be advantageously contained in the fluid reservoir or which may be contained in a detergent or cleaning agent, which contains fluid reservoir according to the invention.

These ingredients include the builders. The builders include, in particular, the zeolites, silicates, carbonates, organic cobuilders and, where there are no ecological prejudices against their use, also the phosphates.

The usable finely crystalline, synthetic and bound water-containing zeolite is preferably zeolite A and / or P. As zeolite P zeolite MAP ^® (commercial product from Crosfield) is particularly preferred. Also suitable, however, are zeolite X and mixtures of A, X and / or P. Commercially available and preferably usable in the context of the present invention is, for example, a cocrystal of zeolite X and zeolite A (about 80% by weight of zeolite X) ), which is sold by the company CONDEA Augusta SpA under the brand name VEGOBOND AX ^® and by the formula

n Na ₂ O ^■ (1-n) K ₂ O ^• Al ₂ O ₃ ^• (2 - 2.5) SiO ₂ ^• (3.5-5.5) H ₂ O can be described. The zeolite can also be used for "powdering." Suitable zeolites have an average particle size of preferably less than 10 μm (volume distribution, measuring method: Coulter Counter) and preferably contain 18 to 22% by weight, in particular 20 to 22% by weight. % of bound water.

Suitable crystalline layered sodium silicates have the general formula NaMSi _x O _{2x + 1} ^■ H ₂ O, where M is sodium or hydrogen, x is a number from 1.9 to 4 and y is a number from O to 20, and preferred values for x 2, 3 or 4 are. Preferred crystalline layered silicates of the formula given are those in which M is sodium and x assumes the values 2 or 3. In particular, both β- and δ-sodium disilicates Na ₂ Si ₂ O ₅ ^.yH ₂ O are preferred.

With particular preference, and crystalline layered silicates of general formula NaMSi _x O _{2x + 1} ^• y H can ₂ O are used, wherein M is sodium or hydrogen, x is a number from 1, 9 to 22, preferably from 1: 9 to 4, and y is a number from 0 to 33. The crystalline layered silicates of the formula NaMSi _x O _{2x + 1} ^• y H ₂ O are sold, for example, by the company Clariant GmbH (Germany) under the trade name Na-SKS. examples for these silicates are Na-SKS-1 (Na ₂ Si ₂₂ O ₄₅ ^■ x H ₂ O, kenyaite), Na-SKS-2 (Na ₂ Si ₁₄ O ₂₉ ^• x H ₂ O, Maga DiIT), Na-SKS -3 (Na ₂ Si ₈ O ₁₇ ^• x H ₂ O) or Na-SKS-4 (Na ₂ Si ₄ O ₉ ^• x H ₂ O, Makatite).

It is also possible to use amorphous sodium silicates with a Na ₂ O: SiO ₂ modulus of from 1: 2 to 1: 3.3, preferably from 1: 2 to 1: 2.8 and in particular from 1: 2 to 1: 2.6, which Delayed and have secondary washing properties. The dissolution delay compared to conventional amorphous sodium silicates may be caused in various ways, for example by surface treatment, compounding, grain paktierung / compression or by overdrying. In the context of this invention, the term "amorphous" is also understood to mean "X-ray amorphous". This means that the silicates do not yield sharp X-ray reflections typical of crystalline substances in X-ray diffraction experiments, but at most one or more maxima of the scattered X-rays which have a width of several degrees of diffraction angle. However, it may well even lead to particularly good builder properties if the silicate particles provide blurred or even sharp diffraction maxima in electron diffraction experiments. This is to be interpreted as meaning that the products have microcrystalline regions of the size of ten to a few hundred nm, with values of up to max. 50 nm and in particular up to max. 20 nm are preferred. Such so-called X-ray amorphous silicates also have a dissolution delay compared to the conventional water glasses. Particularly preferred are compacted / compacted amorphous silicates, compounded amorphous silicates and overdried X-ray amorphous silicates.

In the context of the present invention, it may be preferred for these silicates, preferably alkali metal silicates, more preferably crystalline or amorphous alkali disilicates, to be present in detergents or cleaners in amounts of from 10 to 60% by weight, preferably from 15 to 50 wt .-% and in particular from 20 to 40 wt .-%, each based on the weight of the detergent or cleaning agent, are included.

Of course, a use of the well-known phosphates as builders is possible, unless such use should not be avoided for environmental reasons. This applies in particular to the use of agents according to the invention as (automatic) dishwashing detergents. Among the large number of commercially available phosphates, the alkali metal phosphates have, with particular preference of pentasodium or Pentakaliumtriphosphat (sodium or potassium tripolyphosphate) in the detergents and cleaning agents industry the greatest importance.

Alkali metal phosphates is the summary term for the alkali metal (especially sodium and potassium) salts of various phosphoric acids, in which one can distinguish metaphosphoric acids (HPO ₃ ) ,, and orthophosphoric H ₃ PO _{4 in} addition to higher molecular weight representatives. The phosphates combine several advantages: they act as alkali carriers, prevent lime deposits on machine parts or lime incrustations in fabrics and also contribute to the cleaning performance.

Suitable phosphates are, for example, the sodium dihydrogen phosphate, NaH ₂ PO ₄ , in the form of the dihydrate (density 1, 91 like ³ , melting point 60 ^° C.) or in the form of the monohydrate (density 2,04 like ^'3 ), the disodium hydrogen phosphate (secondary sodium phosphate) , Na ₂ HPO ₄ , which is anhydrous or with 2 mol (density 2.066 like ^"3 , water loss at 95 ° C), 7 mol (density 1, 68 like ^{" 3} , melting point 48 ° C with loss of 5 H ₂ O) and 12 mol of water (density 1, 52 like ^'3 , melting point 35 ° C with loss of 5 H ₂ O) can be used, but especially the trisodium phosphate (tertiary sodium phosphate) Na ₃ PO ₄ , which as dodecahydrate, as decahydrate (corresponding to 19 -20% P ₂ O ₅ ) and in anhydrous form (corresponding to 39-40% P ₂ O ₅ ) can be used.

Another preferred phosphate is the tripotassium phosphate (tertiary or tribasic potassium phosphate), K ₃ PO ₄ . Also preferred are the tetrasodium diphosphate (sodium pyrophosphate), Na ₄ P ₂ O ₇ , which is in anhydrous form (density 2.534 like ^"3 , melting point 988 ⁰ C, also indicated 88O ⁰ C) and as decahydrate (density 1, 815- 1, 836 like ^'3 , melting point 94 ° C with loss of water), and the corresponding potassium salt potassium diphosphate (potassium pyrophosphate), K ₄ P ₂ O ₇ .

The technically important pentasodium triphosphate, Na ₅ P ₃ Oi ₀ (sodium tripolyphosphate), is an anhydrous or with 6 H ₂ O crystallizing, non-hygroscopic, colorless, water-soluble salt of the general formula NaO- [P (O) (ONa) -O] _n -Na with n = 3. The corresponding potassium salt pentapotassium triphosphate, K ₅ P ₃ O ₁₀ (potassium tripolyphosphate), is marketed, for example, in the form of a 50% strength by weight solution (> 23% P ₂ O ₅ , 25% K ₂ O). Potassium polyphosphates are widely used in the detergents and cleaners industry. There are also sodium potassium tripolyphosphates which can also be used in the context of the present invention. These arise, for example, when hydrolyzed sodium trimetaphosphate with KOH:

(NaPO ₃ J ₃ + 2 KOH → Na ₃ K ₂ P ₃ O ₁₀ + H ₂ O These are used according to the invention exactly as sodium tripolyphosphate, potassium tripolyphosphate or mixtures of these two; Mixtures of sodium tripolyphosphate and sodium potassium tripolyphosphate or mixtures of potassium tripolyphosphate and sodium potassium tripolyphosphate or mixtures of sodium tripolyphosphate and potassium tripolyphosphate and sodium potassium tripolyphosphate can also be used according to the invention.

If phosphates are used as detergents or cleaning agents in the context of the present application, preferred agents comprise these phosphate (s), preferably alkali metal phosphate (s), more preferably pentasodium or pentapotassium triphosphate (sodium or pentasodium) Potassium tripolyphosphate), in amounts of from 5 to 80% by weight, preferably from 15 to 75% by weight, in particular from 20 to 70% by weight, based in each case on the weight of the washing or cleaning agent.

It is preferred in particular to use potassium tripolyphosphate and sodium tripolyphosphate in a weight ratio of more than 1: 1, preferably more than 2: 1, preferably more than 5: 1, more preferably more than 10: 1 and in particular more than 20: 1. It is particularly preferred to use exclusively potassium tripolyphosphate without admixtures of other phosphates.

Further builders are the alkali carriers. Suitable alkali carriers are, for example, alkali metal hydroxides, alkali metal carbonates, alkali metal hydrogencarbonates, alkali metal sesquicarbonates, the alkali metal silicates, alkali metal silicates and mixtures of the abovementioned substances, preference being given to using alkali metal carbonates, in particular sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate or sodium sesquicarbonate for the purposes of this invention. Particularly preferred is a builder system comprising a mixture of tripolyphosphate and sodium carbonate. Also particularly preferred is a builder system comprising a mixture of tripolyphosphate and sodium carbonate and sodium disilicate.

Because of their low chemical compatibility with the other ingredients of detergents or cleaners in comparison with other builders, the alkali metal hydroxides are, if at all, preferably only in small amounts, preferably in amounts below 10% by weight, preferably below 6% by weight. , Particularly preferably below 4 wt .-% and in particular below 2 wt .-%, each based on the total weight of the detergent or cleaning agent used.

Particularly suitable organic co-builders are polycarboxylates / polycarboxylic acids, polymeric polycarboxylates, aspartic acid, polyacetals, dextrins, further organic cobuilders (see below) and phosphonates. These classes of substances are described below.

Useful organic builder substances are, for example, the polycarboxylic acids which can be used in the form of their sodium salts, polycarboxylic acids meaning those carboxylic acids which carry more than one acid function. These are, for example, citric acid, adipic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, sugar acids, aminocarboxylic acids, nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA), if such use is not objectionable for ecological reasons, and mixtures of these. Preferred salts are the salts of polycarboxylic acids such as citric acid, adipic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, tartaric acid, sugar acids and mixtures thereof.

The acids themselves can also be used. In addition to their builder action, the acids typically also have the property of an acidifying component and thus also serve to set a lower and milder pH of detergents or cleaners. In particular, citric acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, gluconic acid and any desired mixtures of these can be mentioned here.

Further suitable builders are polymeric polycarboxylates, for example the alkali metal salts of polyacrylic acid or of polymethacrylic acid, for example those having a relative molecular mass of from 500 to 70,000 g / mol.

For the purposes of this document, the molecular weights stated for polymeric polycarboxylates are weight-average molar masses M _{w of} the particular acid form, which were determined in principle by means of gel permeation chromatography (GPC), a UV detector being used. The measurement was carried out against an external polyacrylic acid standard, which provides realistic molecular weight values due to its structural relationship with the polymers investigated. These data differ significantly from the molecular weight data, in which polystyrene sulfonic acids are used as standard. The molar masses measured against polystyrenesulfonic acids are generally significantly higher than the molecular weights specified in this document. Suitable polymers are, in particular, polyacrylates which preferably have a molecular weight of 2,000 to 20,000 g / mol. Because of their superior solubility, the short-chain polyacrylates, which have molar masses of from 2000 to 10000 g / mol, and particularly preferably from 3000 to 5000 g / mol, may again be preferred from this group.

Also suitable are copolymeric polycarboxylates, in particular those of acrylic acid with methacrylic acid and of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid with maleic acid. Copolymers of acrylic acid with maleic acid which contain 50 to 90% by weight of acrylic acid and 50 to 10% by weight of maleic acid have proven to be particularly suitable. Their relative molecular weight, based on free acids, is generally from 2000 to 70000 g / mol, preferably from 20,000 to 50,000 g / mol and in particular from 30,000 to 40,000 g / mol.

Further suitable builder substances are polyacetals which can be obtained by reacting dialdehydes with polyolcarboxylic acids which have 5 to 7 C atoms and at least 3 hydroxyl groups. Preferred polyacetals are obtained from dialdehydes such as glyoxal, glutaraldehyde, terephthalic aldehyde and mixtures thereof and from polyol carboxylic acids such as gluconic acid and / or glucoheptonic acid.

Further suitable organic builder substances are dextrins, for example oligomers or polymers of carbohydrates, which can be obtained by partial hydrolysis of starches. The hydrolysis can be carried out by customary, for example acid or enzyme catalyzed processes. Preferably, it is hydrolysis products having average molecular weights in the range of 400 to 500,000 g / mol. In this case, a polysaccharide with a dextrose equivalent (DE) in the range from 0.5 to 40, in particular from 2 to 30 is preferred, DE being a common measure of the reducing action of a polysaccharide compared to dextrose, which has a DE of 100 , is.

Both maltodextrins with a DE of between 3 and 20 and dry glucose syrups with a DE of between 20 and 37 and also so-called yellow dextrins and white dextrins with relatively high molecular weights in the range from 2000 to 30 000 g / mol are useful.

The oxidized derivatives of such dextrins are their reaction products with oxidizing agents which are capable of oxidizing at least one alcohol function of the saccharide ring to the carboxylic acid function.

Oxydisuccinates and other derivatives of disuccinates, preferably ethylenediamine disuccinate, are other suitable co-builders. Ethylenediamine-N, N ^'- disuccinate (EDDS) is preferably in the form of its sodium or magnesium salts. Also preferred in this context are glycerol disuccinates and glycerol trisuccinates.

Particularly preferred values for x are in the range from 1 to 20, in particular from 6 to 15

As described above, each R ³ in the above formula may be different if x≥2. Thus, the alkylene oxide unit in the square bracket may be varied. For example, when x is 3, the group R ^{3 may be} selected to be ethylene oxide (R ³ = H) or propylene oxide (R ³ = CH ₃ ) units which may be joined together in any order, for example (EO) (PO) (EO), (EO) (EO) (PO), (EO) ( EO) (EO), (PO) (EO) (PO), (PO) (PO) (EO) and (PO) (PO) (PO).

As the alkylene oxide unit which is contained in the preferred nonionic surfactants in alternation with the ethylene oxide unit, in particular butylene oxide is considered in addition to propylene oxide.

Preference is given to using nonionic surfactants of the above formula in which R ² or R ^{3 is} a radical -CH ₃ , w and x independently of one another for values of 3 or 4 and y and z independently of one another are values of 1 or 2.

Advantageously, it is additionally preferred to add organic, particularly preferably aromatic, compounds which interact with the enzymes in order to enhance the activity of the relevant oxidoreductases (enhancers) or to ensure the flow of electrons (mediators) at greatly varying redox potentials between the oxidizing enzymes and the soils.

The enzymes originate, for example, either originally from microorganisms, such as the genera Bacillus, Streptomyces, Humicola, or Pseudomonas, and / or are produced by biotechnological methods known per se by suitable microorganisms, such as transgenic expression hosts of the genera Bacillus or filamentous fungi.

The purification of the relevant enzymes is preferably carried out by conventional methods, for example by precipitation, sedimentation, concentration, filtration of the liquid phases, microfiltration, ultrafiltration, exposure to chemicals, deodorization or suitable combinations of these steps.

The enzymes can be used in any form known in the art. These include, for example, the solid preparations obtained by granulation, extrusion or lyophilization or, especially in the case of liquid or gel-form detergents, solutions of the enzymes, advantageously as concentrated as possible, sparing in water and / or added with stabilizers.

Alternatively, the enzymes may be encapsulated for both the solid and liquid dosage forms, for example by spray-drying or extruding the enzyme solution together with a preferably natural polymer or in the form of capsules, for example those in which the enzymes are entrapped as in a solidified gel or in those of the core-shell type in which an enzyme-containing core is coated with a water, air and / or chemical impermeable protective layer. In deposited layers, further active ingredients, for example stabilizers, emulsifiers, pigments, bleaches or dyes, may additionally be applied. Such capsules are applied by methods known per se, for example by shaking or rolling granulation or in fluid-bed processes. advantageously, are such granules, for example, by applying polymeric film-forming, low-dust and storage stable due to the coating.

Furthermore, it is possible to assemble two or more enzymes together so that a single granule has several enzyme activities.

A protein and / or enzyme may be particularly protected during storage against damage such as inactivation, denaturation or degradation, such as by physical influences, oxidation or proteolytic cleavage. In microbial recovery of proteins and / or enzymes, inhibition of proteolysis is particularly preferred, especially if the agents also contain proteases. Detergents may contain stabilizers for this purpose; the provision of such means constitutes a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

One group of stabilizers are reversible protease inhibitors. Frequently, benzamidine hydrochloride, borax, boric acids, boronic acids or their salts or esters are used, including, in particular, derivatives with aromatic groups, for example ortho-substituted, meta-substituted and para-substituted phenylboronic acids, or their salts or esters. As peptidic protease inhibitors are, inter alia, ovomucoid and leupeptin to mention; An additional option is the formation of fusion proteins from proteases and peptide inhibitors.

Other enzyme stabilizers are aminoalcohols, such as up to Ci _2, such as succinic acid, other dicarboxylic acids or salts of said acids, mono-, di-, triethanol- and -propanolamine and mixtures thereof, aliphatic carboxylic acids. End-capped fatty acid amide alkoxylates are also suitable. Certain organic acids used as builders are additionally capable of stabilizing a contained enzyme.

Lower aliphatic alcohols, but especially polyols, such as glycerol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol or sorbitol are other frequently used enzyme stabilizers. Also used are calcium salts, such as calcium acetate or calcium formate, and magnesium salts.

Polyamide oligomers or polymeric compounds such as lignin, water-soluble vinyl copolymers or cellulose ethers, acrylic polymers and / or polyamides stabilize the enzyme preparation, inter alia, against physical influences or pH fluctuations. Polyamine N-oxide-containing polymers act as enzyme stabilizers. Other polymeric stabilizers are the linear C ₈ -C ₁₈ polyoxyalkylenes. Alkyl polyglycosides can stabilize the enzymatic components and even increase their performance. Crosslinked N-containing compounds also act as enzyme stabilizers. Reducing agents and antioxidants increase the stability of the enzymes to oxidative degradation. A sulfur-containing reducing agent is, for example, sodium sulfite.

Preferably, combinatons of stabilizers are used, for example of polyols, boric acid and / or borax, the combination of boric acid or borate, reducing salts and succinic acid or other dicarboxylic acids or the combination of boric acid or borate with polyols or polyamino compounds and with reducing salts. The effect of peptide-aldehyde stabilizers is enhanced by the combination with boric acid and / or boric acid derivatives and polyols and further enhanced by the additional use of divalent cations, such as calcium ions.

Preferred are one or more enzymes and / or enzyme preparations, preferably solid protease preparations and / or amylase preparations, in amounts of 0.1 to 5 wt .-%, preferably from 0.2 to 4.5 wt .-% and in particular from 0.4 to 4 wt .-%, each based on the total enzyme-containing agent used.

In order to facilitate the disintegration of solids, it is possible to incorporate disintegration aids, so-called tablet disintegrants, in these agents in order to shorten the disintegration times. According to Römpp (9th edition, Vol. 6, p. 4440) and Voigt "Textbook of Pharmaceutical Technology" (6th edition, 1987, pp. 182-184), excipients are understood to mean excipients which are suitable for rapid disintegration of tablets in water or gastric juice and for the release of the drugs in resorbable form.

These substances, which are also referred to as "explosives" due to their effect, increase their volume upon ingress of water, on the one hand increasing the intrinsic volume (swelling), and on the other hand creating a pressure via the release of gases which can break the tablet into smaller particles disintegrates. Known disintegration aids are, for example, carbonate / citric acid systems, although other organic acids can also be used. Swelling disintegration aids are, for example, synthetic polymers such as polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) or natural polymers or modified natural substances such as cellulose and starch and their derivatives, alginates or casein derivatives.

Desintegration aids may preferably be used in amounts of from 0.5 to 10% by weight, preferably from 3 to 7% by weight and in particular from 4 to 6% by weight, based in each case on the total weight of the disintegration assistant-containing agent.

Disintegrating agents based on cellulose are used as preferred disintegrating agents, so that preferred washing and cleaning agents comprise such a disintegrating agent Cellulose base in amounts of 0.5 to 10 wt .-%, preferably 3 to 7 wt .-% and in particular 4 to 6 wt .-%. Pure cellulose has the formal gross composition (C ₆ H ₁₀ Os) _n and is formally a β-1,4-polyacetal of cellobiose, which in turn is composed of two molecules of glucose. Suitable celluloses consist of about 500 to 5000 glucose units and therefore have average molecular weights of 50,000 to 500,000. Cellulose-based disintegrating agents which can be used in the context of the present invention are also cellulose derivatives obtainable by polymer-analogous reactions of cellulose. Such chemically modified celluloses include, for example, products of esterifications or etherifications in which hydroxy hydrogen atoms have been substituted. Celluloses in which the hydroxy groups have been replaced by functional groups which are not bonded via an oxygen atom can also be used as cellulose derivatives. The group of cellulose derivatives includes, for example, alkali metal celluloses, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), cellulose esters and ethers, and aminocelluloses. The cellulose derivatives mentioned are preferably not used alone as disintegrating agents based on cellulose, but used in admixture with cellulose. The content of these mixtures of cellulose derivatives is preferably below 50% by weight, particularly preferably below 20% by weight, based on the cellulose-based disintegrating agent. It is particularly preferred to use cellulose-based disintegrating agent which is free of cellulose derivatives.

The cellulose which can be used as a disintegration aid is preferably not used in finely divided form, but is converted into a coarser form, for example granulated or compacted, before it is added to the premixes to be tabletted. The particle sizes of such disintegrating agents are usually above 200 .mu.m, preferably at least 90 wt .-% between 300 and 1600 .mu.m and in particular at least 90 wt .-% between 400 and 1200 microns. The above and described in more detail in the documents cited coarser disintegration aids, are preferred as disintegration aids and are commercially available, for example under the name of Arbocel ^® TF-30-HG from Rettenmaier available in the present invention.

As a further disintegrating agent based on cellulose or as a component of this component microcrystalline cellulose can be used. This microcrystalline cellulose is obtained by partial hydrolysis of celluloses under conditions which attack and completely dissolve only the amorphous regions (about 30% of the total cellulose mass) of the celluloses, leaving the crystalline regions (about 70%) intact. Subsequent deaggregation of the microfine celluloses produced by the hydrolysis yields the microcrystalline celluloses which have primary particle sizes of about 5 μm and can be compacted, for example, into granules having an average particle size of 200 μm. Preferred disintegration aids, preferably a disintegration aid based on cellulose, preferably in granular, cogranulated or compacted form, can be used in disintegration agent-containing agents in amounts of from 0.5 to 10% by weight, preferably from 3 to 7% by weight and in particular from 4 to 6 Wt .-%, in each case based on the total weight of the disintegrating agent-containing agent to be included.

Furthermore, according to the invention, gas-evolving effervescent systems can furthermore be used as tablet disintegration auxiliaries. The gas-evolving effervescent system may consist of a single substance that releases a gas upon contact with water. Among these compounds, mention should be made in particular of magnesium peroxide, which liberates oxygen on contact with water. Usually, however, the gas-releasing effervescent system in turn consists of at least two constituents which react with one another to form gas. While a variety of systems are conceivable and executable that release, for example, nitrogen, oxygen or hydrogen, the bubble system used in detergents and cleaners can be selected both on the basis of economic and environmental considerations. Preferred effervescent systems consist of alkali metal carbonate and / or bicarbonate and an acidifying agent which is suitable for liberating carbon dioxide from the alkali metal salts in aqueous solution.

In the case of the alkali metal carbonates or bicarbonates, the sodium and potassium salts are clearly preferred over the other salts for reasons of cost. Of course, the relevant pure alkali metal carbonates or bicarbonates do not have to be used; Rather, mixtures of different carbonates and bicarbonates may be preferred.

2 to 20 wt .-%, preferably 3 to 15 wt .-% and in particular 5 to 10 wt .-% of an alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate and 1 to 15, preferably 2 to 12 wt .-% and in particular are preferred as an optional effervescent system 3 to 10 wt .-% of an acidifying agent, each based on the total weight of the agent used.

Acidifying agents which release carbon dioxide from the alkali metal salts in aqueous solution include, for example, boric acid and alkali metal hydrogen sulfates, alkali metal dihydrogen phosphates and other inorganic salts. However, preference is given to using organic acidifying agents, the citric acid being a particularly preferred acidifying agent. However, it is also possible in particular to use the other solid mono-, oligo- and polycarboxylic acids. Tartaric acid, succinic acid, malonic acid, adipic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, oxalic acid and polyacrylic acid are again preferred from this group. Organic sulfonic acids such as sulfamic acid are also usable. Commercially available and also preferably usable as Acidifizierungsmittel in the context of the present invention Sokalan ^® DCS (trademark of BASF), a mixture of succinic acid (max. 31 wt .-%), glutaric acid (max. 50 wt .-%) and adipic acid (max. 33 wt .-%).

Acidifying agents in the effervescent system from the group of organic di-, tri- and oligocarboxylic acids or mixtures are preferred.

Preferred dyes, the selection of which presents no difficulty for the skilled person, have a high storage stability and insensitivity to the other ingredients of the compositions and to light and no pronounced substantivity to the substrates to be treated with the dye-containing agents, such as textiles, glass, ceramics or plastic tableware do not stain them.

When selecting the colorant, it must be taken into account that in the case of textile detergents, the colorants do not have too high an affinity for textile surfaces, and in particular for synthetic fibers, whereas in the case of detergents an excessively high affinity for glass, ceramic or plasticware must be avoided , At the same time, it should also be taken into account when choosing suitable colorants that colorants have different stabilities to the oxidation. In general, water-insoluble colorants are more stable to oxidation than water-soluble colorants. Depending on the solubility and thus also on the sensitivity to oxidation, the concentration of the colorant in the detergents or cleaners varies. For highly soluble dyes, for example, the above-mentioned Basacid ^® Green or the above-mentioned Sandolan ^® Blue are typically chosen dye concentrations in the range of some 10 ^'2 to 10 ^"3 wt .-%. In the case of, due to their brilliance, particularly on the other hand preferred, but less readily water-soluble pigment dyes, for example the above-mentioned Pigmosol ^® dyes, the suitable concentration of the colorant in detergents or cleaning agents, however, is typically some 10 ^'3 to 10 ^"4 wt .-%.

Dyeing agents which can be oxidatively destroyed in the washing process and mixtures thereof with suitable blue dyes, so-called blue toners, are preferred. It has proved to be advantageous to use colorants which are soluble in water or at room temperature in liquid organic substances. Suitable examples are anionic colorants, for example anionic nitrosofarbstoffe. One possible dye is, for example, naphthol green (Color Index (CI) Part 1: Acid Green 1; Part 2: 10020)., That is as a commercial product, for example as Basacid ^® Green 970 from BASF, Ludwigshafen available, as well as mixtures thereof with suitable blue dyes. Further suitable colorants Pigmosol come ^® Blue 6900 (CI 74160), Pigmosol ^® Green 8730 (CI 74260), Basonyl ^® Red 545 FL (CI 45170), Sandolan® ^® rhodamine EB400 (CI 45100), Basacid® ^® Yellow 094 (CI 47005) Sicovit ^® Patentblau 85 e 131 (CI 42051), Acid Blue 183 (CAS 12217-22-0, Cl Acidblue 183), pigment Blue 15 (Cl 74160), Supranol Blue ^® GLW (CAS 12219-32- 8, Cl Acidblue 221)), Nylosan Yellow ^® N-7GL SGR (CAS 61814-57-1, Cl Acidyellow 218) and / or Sandolan Blue ^® (Cl Acid Blue 182, CAS 12219-26-0) is used.

In addition to the preferably extensively described components described above, the detergents and cleaners may also contain other ingredients which further improve the performance and / or aesthetic properties of these compositions. Preferred agents contain one or more of the group of electrolytes, pH adjusters, fluorescers, hydrotopes, foam inhibitors, silicone oils, anti redeposition agents, optical brighteners, grayness inhibitors, anti-shrinkage agents, crease inhibitors, dye transfer inhibitors, antimicrobial agents, germicides, fungicides, antioxidants, antistatic agents, ironing aids , Repellents and impregnating agents, swelling and anti-slip agents and UV absorbers.

As electrolytes from the group of inorganic salts, a wide number of different salts can be used. Preferred cations are the alkali and alkaline earth metals, preferred anions are the halides and sulfates. From a manufacturing point of view, the use of NaCl or MgCl ₂ in the washing or cleaning agents is preferred.

In order to bring the pH of detergents or cleaners into the desired range, the use of pH adjusters may be indicated. Can be used here are all known acids or alkalis, unless their use is not for technical application or environmental reasons or for reasons of consumer protection prohibited. Usually, the amount of these adjusting agents does not exceed 1% by weight of the total formulation.

Suitable foam inhibitors are, inter alia, soaps, oils, fats, paraffins or silicone oils, which may optionally be applied to support materials. Suitable carrier materials are, for example, inorganic salts such as carbonates or sulfates, cellulose derivatives or silicates and mixtures of the abovementioned materials. In the context of the present application preferred agents include paraffins, preferably unbranched paraffins (n-paraffins) and / or silicones, preferably linear-polymeric silicones, which are constructed according to the scheme (R ₂ SiO) X and are also referred to as silicone oils. These silicone oils are usually clear, colorless, neutral, odorless, hydrophobic liquids having a molecular weight between 1,000 and 150,000, and viscosities between 10 and 1,000,000 mPa.s.

Suitable anti-redeposition agents, which are also referred to as soil repellents, are, for example, nonionic cellulose ethers such as methylcellulose and methylhydroxypropylcellulose with a proportion of methoxy groups of 15 to 30% by weight and of hydroxypropyl groups of 1 to 15% by weight, based in each case on the nonionic cellulose ether as well as from the state known polymers of phthalic acid and / or terephthalic acid or derivatives thereof, in particular polymers of ethylene terephthalates and / or polyethylene glycol terephthalates or anionic and / or nonionic modified derivatives thereof. Especially preferred of these are the sulfonated derivatives of the phthalic and terephthalic acid polymers.

Optical brighteners (so-called "whiteners") may be added to laundry detergents or cleaners to eliminate graying and yellowing of the treated fabrics, which will be absorbed by the fiber and cause brightening and replicated bleaching action by rendering invisible ultraviolet radiation into visible long wavelength convert light, wherein the absorbed from sunlight ultraviolet light is radiated as pale bluish fluorescence and produces the yellow shade of the grayed or yellowed laundry pure white Suitable compounds originate for example from the substance classes of 4.4. ^{'- diamino-2,2'} stilbenedisulfonic acids (flavonic), ^{4,4'-biphenylene} -Distyryl, Methylumbelliferone, coumarins, dihydroquinolinones, 1, 3-diaryl pyrazolines, naphthalimides, benzoxazole, benzisoxazole, and benzimidazole systems, and pyrene derivatives substituted by heterocycles.

Grayness inhibitors have the task of keeping the dirt detached from the fiber suspended in the liquor and thus preventing the dirt from being rebuilt. Water-soluble colloids of mostly organic nature are suitable for this purpose, for example the water-soluble salts of polymeric carboxylic acids, glue, gelatin, salts of ether sulfonic acids or cellulose or salts of acidic sulfuric acid esters of cellulose or starch. Also, water-soluble polyamides containing acidic groups are suitable for this purpose. Furthermore, soluble starch preparations and other than the above-mentioned starch products can be used, e.g. degraded starch, aldehyde levels, etc. Also polyvinylpyrrolidone is useful. Also usable as graying inhibitors are cellulose ethers such as carboxymethylcellulose (Na salt), methylcellulose, hydroxyalkylcellulose and mixed ethers such as methylhydroxyethylcellulose, methylhydroxypropylcellulose, methylcarboxymethylcellulose and mixtures thereof.

Since textile sheet structures, in particular of rayon, rayon, cotton and their mixtures, can tend to wrinkle, because the individual fibers are sensitive to bending, buckling, pressing and squeezing transverse to the fiber direction, synthetic anti-crease agents can be used. These include, for example, synthetic products based on fatty acids, fatty acid esters, fatty acid amides, alkylol esters, -alkylolamides or fatty alcohols, which are usually reacted with ethylene oxide, or products based on lecithin or modified phosphoric acid ester. Phobic and impregnation processes are used to furnish textiles with substances that prevent the deposition of dirt or facilitate its washability. Preferred repellents and impregnating agents are perfluorinated fatty acids, also in the form of their aluminum u. Zirconium salts, organic silicates, silicones, polyacrylic acid esters with perfluorinated alcohol component or polymerizable compounds coupled with perfluorinated acyl or sulfonyl radical. Antistatic agents may also be included. The antisoiling equipment with repellents and impregnating agents is often classified as an easy-care finish. The penetration of the impregnating agent in the form of solutions or emulsions of the active substances in question can be facilitated by adding wetting agents which reduce the surface tension. A further field of application of repellents and impregnating agents is the water-repellent finish of textiles, tents, tarpaulins, leather, etc., in which, in contrast to waterproofing, the fabric pores are not closed, so the fabric remains breathable (hydrophobing). The water repellents used for hydrophobization coat textiles, leather, paper, wood, etc. with a very thin layer of hydrophobic groups, such as longer alkyl chains or siloxane groups. Suitable hydrophobizing agents are, for example, paraffins, waxes, metal soaps, etc. with additions of aluminum or zirconium salts, quaternary ammonium compounds with long-chain alkyl radicals, urea derivatives, fatty acid-modified melamine resins, chromium complex salts, silicones, tin-organic compounds and glutaric dialdehyde and perfluorinated compounds. The hydrophobized materials do not feel greasy; nevertheless, similar to greasy substances, water droplets emit from them without moistening. For example, silicone-impregnated textiles have a soft feel and are water and dirt repellent; Stains from ink, wine, fruit juices and the like are easier to remove.

Antimicrobial agents can be used to combat microorganisms. Depending on the antimicrobial spectrum and mechanism of action, a distinction is made between bacteriostats and bactericides, fungistatics and fungicides, etc. Important substances from these groups are, for example, benzalkonium chlorides, alkylarylsulfonates, halophenols and phenolmercuric acetate, although it is entirely possible to do without these compounds.

To prevent undesirable changes to the detergents and cleaners and / or the treated fabrics caused by exposure to oxygen and other oxidative processes, the compositions may contain anti-oxidants. This class of compounds includes, for example, substituted phenols, hydroquinones, catechols and aromatic amines, as well as organic sulfides, polysulfides, dithiocarbamates, phosphites and phosphonates.

Increased comfort may result from the additional use of antistatic agents. Antistatic agents increase the surface conductivity and thus allow an improved drainage of formed charges. External antistatic agents are usually substances with at least one hydrophilic molecule ligand and give more or less on the surfaces hygroscopic film. These mostly surface-active antistatic agents can be subdivided into nitrogen-containing (amines, amides, quaternary ammonium compounds), phosphorus-containing (phosphoric acid esters) and sulfur-containing (alkyl sulfonates, alkyl sulfates) antistatic agents. Lauryl (or stearyl) dimethylbenzylammonium chlorides are also suitable as antistatic agents for textiles or as an additive to detergents, wherein additionally a softening effect is achieved.

Softeners can be used to care for textiles and to improve the textile properties such as a softer "avivage" and reduced electrostatic charge (increased wearing comfort.) The active ingredients in fabric softening formulations are "esterquats", quaternary ammonium compounds with two hydrophobic radicals, such as Disteraryldimethylammoniumchlorid, which, however, due to its insufficient biodegradability increasingly replaced by quaternary ammonium compounds containing ester groups in their hydrophobic residues as predetermined breaking points for biodegradation.

Such "esterquats" with improved biodegradability are obtainable, for example, by esterifying mixtures of methyldiethanolamine and / or triethanolamine with fatty acids and then quaternizing the reaction products in a manner known per se with alkylating agents. Further suitable as a finish is dimethylolethyleneurea.

Silicone derivatives can be used to improve the water absorbency, rewettability of the treated fabrics, and ease of ironing the treated fabrics. These additionally improve the rinsing out of detergents or cleaning agents by their foam-inhibiting properties. Preferred silicone derivatives are, for example, polydialkyl or alkylaryl siloxanes in which the alkyl groups have one to five carbon atoms and are completely or partially fluorinated. Preferred silicones are polydimethylsiloxanes, which may optionally be derivatized and are then amino-functional or quaternized or have Si-OH, Si-H and / or Si-CI bonds. Further preferred silicones are the polyalkylene oxide-modified polysiloxanes, ie polysiloxanes which comprise, for example, polyethylene glycols and also the polyalkylene oxide-modified dimetylpolysiloxanes.

Finally, according to the invention, it is also possible to use UV absorbers which are absorbed by the treated textiles and improve the light resistance of the fibers. Compounds having these desired properties include, for example, the non-radiative deactivating compounds and derivatives of benzophenone having substituents in the 2- and / or 4-position. Also suitable are substituted benzotriazoles, phenyl-substituted acrylates (cinnamic acid derivatives) in the 3-position, optionally with cyano groups in the 2-position, salicylates, organic Ni complexes and natural substances such as umbelliferone and the body's own urocanic acid. Protein hydrolyzates are due to their fiber-care effect further in the context of the present invention preferred active substances from the field of detergents and cleaners. Protein hydrolysates are product mixtures obtained by acid, alkaline or enzymatically catalyzed degradation of proteins (proteins). According to the invention, protein hydrolysates of both vegetable and animal origin can be used. Animal protein hydrolysates are, for example, elastin, collagen, keratin, silk and milk protein hydrolysates, which may also be present in the form of salts. Preferred according to the invention is the use of protein hydrolysates of plant origin, for example soybean, almond, rice, pea, potato and wheat protein hydrolysates. Although the use of the protein hydrolysates is preferred as such, amino acid mixtures or individual amino acids obtained otherwise, such as, for example, arginine, lysine, histidine or pyrroglutamic acid, may also be used in their place. Also possible is the use of derivatives of protein hydrolysates, for example in the form of their fatty acid condensation products.

The nonaqueous solvents which can be used according to the invention include, in particular, the organic solvents, of which only the most important can be listed here: alcohols (methanol, ethanol, propanols, butanols, octanols, cyclohexanol), glycols (ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol), ethers and glycol ethers (diethyl ether, dibutyl ether, anisole, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, mono-, di-, tri-, polyethylene glycol ethers), ketones (acetone, butanone, cyclohexanone), esters (acetic esters, glycol esters), amides and other nitrogen compounds (dimethylformamide, Pyridine, N-methylpyrrolidone, acetonitrile), sulfur compounds (carbon disulfide, dimethylsulfoxide, sulfolane), nitro compounds (nitrobenzene), halogenated hydrocarbons (dichloromethane, chloroform, tetrachloromethane, tri-, tetrachloroethene, 1,2-dichloroethane, chlorofluorocarbons), hydrocarbons (Benzine, petroleum ether, cyclohexane, methylcyclohexane, decalin, terpene solvent, benzene, toluene, xylene Ie). Alternatively, instead of the pure solvents, their mixtures, which advantageously combine, for example, the dissolution properties of various solvents, can also be used. Such a solvent mixture which is particularly preferred in the context of the present application is, for example, benzine, a mixture of various hydrocarbons suitable for dry cleaning, preferably containing C12 to C14 hydrocarbons above 60% by weight, more preferably above 80% by weight and in particular above 90 wt .-%, each based on the total weight of the mixture, preferably having a boiling range of 81 to 110 ⁰ C. Example:

Resulting composition of the perfume storage: Crosslinked polypropylene 48% by weight

PEG 4000 26% by weight

Perfume oil 26% by weight
