Definitions

  • the invention relates to the use of storage-stable surfactant solutions in bleaching processes with hydrogen peroxide, which use manganese complexes, in particular of triazacyclononanones, as catalyst.
  • Hydrogen peroxide is one of the most important bleaching agents today, which decomposes when used in water and oxygen. In contrast to chlorine-containing bleaching agents, there are no toxic or carcinogenic halogen-containing substances. Thus, it continues to gain ground in many industrial areas. Typical applications for hydrogen peroxide are the paper and pulp industry, the textile finishing or household detergents, where hydrogen peroxide forms on dissolving perborates or percarbonates. 2,200,000 tonnes of hydrogen peroxide are produced each year, 50% for paper and pulp and 10% for textile bleaching.
  • the first catalyst in a commercial household detergent was a binuclear manganese complex with one 1,4,7-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononanone (L) connected by three oxygen bridges:
  • the catalyst was first used by Wieghardt et al. (Lit. 29-32) describe and 0 C and pH ranges effectively 9-11 even at 4O, but was due to Fiber damage of the cellulosic material after a short time taken back from the market.
  • Me 4 dtne 1, 2-bis (4,7-dimethyl-l, 4,7-triazacyclonon-1-yl) ethane.
  • These catalysts can also lower while still providing the desired white effect treatment temperatures in the textile bleaching of 98 0 C or more, for example 8O 0 C.
  • pulp bleaching it is customary to sequester and / or remove the manganese ions for manganese removal prior to bleaching with hydrogen peroxide in precursors with EDTA or DTPA.
  • these two complexing agents are neither biodegradable nor are they eliminated in sewage treatment plants.
  • EDTA and DTPA still dominate complexing agent use in pulp bleaching.
  • These two complexing agents also allow for efficient bleaching with cat 1) because they bind the manganese liberated during the bleaching process from the catalyst and thereby reduce the peroxide decomposing and cotton damaging effect.
  • WO 2007/042192 A2 describes bleach compositions containing a defined Mn catalyst, an aminocarboxylate-based complexing agent, hydrogen peroxide and, in addition, a carbonate or borate buffer.
  • the buffer keeps the pH constant over a certain range and thus contributes to a further stabilization of the bleaching compositions and in particular of the Mn complexes contained therein.
  • the complexing agents used can be EDTA, HEDTA, NTA, N-hydroxyethylaminodiacetic acid, DTPA, MGDA or alanine-N, N-diacetic acid.
  • amines are also used for stabilizing bleach compositions, as described in DE 197 02 734 A1.
  • compositions described therein are biodegradable aliphatic or alicyclic amines having 1 to 12 C atoms; In addition, these amines, which contain only one N atom in each case, can additionally carry (also in each case several) hydroxyl groups.
  • complexing agents for example, aminocarboxylates are used in these compositions, especially those containing an N, N-diacetic acid grouping, such as EDTA, NTA, aspartic acid / glutamic acid or .beta.-alanine-N, N-diacetic acid, iminodiacetic acid.
  • a disadvantage of the previously known in the prior art method is that the catalyst is always mixed separately from the actual bleaching composition to be used, which not only has a higher equipment complexity by additional metering result. Moreover, at least with a dimension of the mass of the catalyst with an (analytical) balance, the risk of overdosing of the catalyst to be used only in small quantities increases. In addition to the catalyst, the actual bleaching agent is usually added separately.
  • the pH adjustment has an influence on the stability of the product. If the specified pH is not adjusted, no storage-stable product can be formulated.
  • the object of the present invention is accordingly to provide stable and, in particular, storage-stable compositions which can be used in peroxide bleaching and over which a bleach-active catalyst no longer has to be added separately. Such compositions would therefore already contain the catalyst in solution, which would make an additional separate metering or dissolution of a (catalyst) powder superfluous.
  • compositions except for the blending agent to be blended separately, should contain all the excipients and agents necessary for peroxide bleaching so that the amount of blending and / or metering operations can be minimized by the use of such compositions.
  • the invention relates to storage-stable surfactant solutions
  • At least one manganese-based metal complex of general formula I admixed with a surfactant as process auxiliary
  • L represents a ligand of an organic molecule having a number of nitrogen atoms which coordinate via its nitrogen atoms to the manganese center (centers); Mn for manganese in the oxidation state III or IV; n and m are each independently an integer of 1 to 3; X for a coordination or bridge species; p is an integer having a value of 0 to 4; z for a charge of the complex, which is a whole negative and positive
  • coordination species are understood in particular to be monodentate ligands.
  • bridge species summarizes those multidentate ligands which connect at least 2 metal atoms (bridging) to one another (for a more detailed explanation of these terms, see “Coordination Chemistry” by L. Gade, Wiley-VCH 1998).
  • the catalyst can be incorporated into existing auxiliaries, that is, for example, commercially available surfactant solutions / detergents, and the resulting compositions nevertheless have sufficient storage stability. Surprisingly, the solubility in the detergent is sufficient and the shelf life at 25 0 C is even several months. Because of these conditions, a large amount of (storage-stable) surfactant solution can be prepared directly, so that the error in the dimension of the amount of catalyst required for the admixture is reduced accordingly.
  • the surfactant solutions according to the invention may furthermore contain at least one biodegradable or at least bioeliminable complexing agent (b).
  • the solutions are characterized in that the
  • Me 4 dtne l, 2-bis (4,7-dimethyl-l, 4,7-triazacyclonon-1-yl) ethane.
  • EDTA and DTPA are commonly considered to be strongly binding complexing agents for a wide variety of metal cations. Due to the associated very high complex formation constants, the binding capacity is extremely strong. However, with the aid of the present invention it is preferred to use complexing agent with significantly lower complex formation constant, also in view of the associated improved environmental properties. Accordingly, it is particularly preferred for the purposes of the present invention if the complexing agents have a complex formation constant of less than or equal to 12, in particular less than or equal to 10.
  • aminocarboxylic acids are suitable as complexing agents, examples being:
  • Biodegradable complexing agents according to OECD 302 B Carboxymethylated polyethylenimine (Trilon P ® )
  • biodegradability in the sense of the present invention is defined and measured as follows:
  • the degradation is determined by periodic measurements of DOC (Dissolved Organic Carbon), CO 2 or O 2 .
  • DOC Dissolved Organic Carbon
  • O 2 Organic 2
  • the criterion for easy biodegradability is the achievement of 70% DOC elimination and 60% oxygen consumption or production of carbon dioxide within 10 days after exceeding the degree of degradation of 10%.
  • OECD 302 methods :
  • DOC, CO 2 and O 2 are measured at periodic intervals and set in relation to the DOC and TOC at the beginning of the test.
  • the percentage degradation rate calculated in this way gives the degradation curve plotted against time.
  • the criterion for a potential biodegradability is the achievement of> 20% DOC decrease or oxygen consumption after 28 days. Complete biodegradability (elimination) is assumed to be> 70% after 28 days.
  • the product is readily biodegradable according to OECD criteria.
  • the actual bleaching agent used in each of the further sections of the description and the patent claims is a 35% strength by weight aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide.
  • component (a) and (b) may be preferred in various proportions in the mixtures according to the invention. However, for the purposes of the present invention, preference is given to adjusting the weight ratio of component (a) to component (b) in the range from 20: 1 to 500: 1, more preferably within a range from 80: 1 to 300: 1 with the advantages of higher whiteness with acceptable fiber damage.
  • solutions according to the invention need not contain any buffer substances, in particular no buffer substances based on borates and / or carbonates, for stabilizing the manganese complexes contained in these solutions.
  • the effectiveness of the bleaching mixtures can be substantially increased by an additional component (c) in the form of sodium hydroxide and / or potassium hydroxide. Accordingly, it is particularly preferred that the mixtures according to the invention contain these additional alkaline substances.
  • the additional component (c) in the form of sodium and / or potassium hydroxide solution is not incorporated into the formulation / blend but is added to the treatment liquor see, for example, series of experiments 1.
  • the addition of the liquor to the treatment liquor is necessary around the optimum pH range for to adjust the bleaching with the catalyst.
  • Another embodiment of the present invention is the use of the solutions as defined above for the peroxide bleaching of cellulosic substrates.
  • cotton or shredded wood material is particularly preferably bleached, for example in textile finishing, household washing, pulp bleaching or paper bleaching.
  • a commercially available liquid detergent Felosan ® NFG were, for the examples and comparative examples and the following sodium salt solutions of complexing agents used:
  • Comparative Example 1 shows a non-catalyzed bleach. The residual peroxide is over 90% very high, the bleach was consumed little and the whiteness is only 59 Berger units. Comparative Example 2 shows the effect of cat 1) without addition of further complexing agents. Whiteness increases by 3 points, but the damage factor also increases to 0.3.
  • Comparative Example 5 demonstrates that even a good heavy metal complexing agent such as DTPMP has little positive effect in such an all-in process.
  • Inventive Examples 1 to 4 show all fiber damage factors ⁇ 0.2 and the same final whiteness as EDTA or DTPA. Phosphonates such as DTPMP are less effective and phosphonates are not sufficiently eliminated by OECD 301 or OECD 302 methods.
  • the catalyst is stirred into the detergent and adjusted to the desired pH with acetic acid or formic acid. It produces intense red-colored, clear solutions that are stable at temperatures below 25 0 C for months.
