Definitions

  • This invention relates to perfumed granular laundry detergent compositions that contain contrasting visual cues made from coloured and shaped film material.
  • perfume in laundry detergents compositions. Such products are appreciated by the consumer according to their smell.
  • the smell in the pack, the smell in use-and the smell on the clothes before and after drying and/or ironing have all been the focus of much research and many patents.
  • Possibly a hint of the type of perfume in a given composition is made by the naming of the variant or the way the product is marketed. It is desirable to provide better information about the type of perfume in the composition.
  • actions such as adding red colouring to white wine can alter how a person perceives the wine's odour - and the publication revealed how we can watch the brain while this happens.
  • GB2358403A coloured water-soluble plastic film particles are added to a powdered laundry detergent of contrasting colour.
  • the examples of this patent application use 5mm diameter circular or star shaped film particles.
  • GB2358403A also discloses that the visual cues may suitably have other symmetrical and regular shapes, such as squares and triangles.
  • matched sets of shapes are suggested, for example, geometrical shapes: triangles, squares, pentagons, and hexagons; numerals; letters of the alphabet; heavenly bodies: sun, moon, and stars.
  • WO2006/079416 0.1% coloured visual cues made from gum Arabic film are added to a laundry detergent powder.
  • the gum Arabic cues are irregularly shaped and are produced by fragmenting a large film of the appropriate material. When film material is broken in this way, it forms random shapes with sharp angles, generally having a triangular or "spiky" appearance.
  • It is also an object to provide a granular laundry detergent composition comprising perfume and coloured and shaped visual cues that contribute to an improved experience of the washing process.
  • Means a consumer perceivable point of differentiation in a detergent composition This could be a feature of the bulk composition: e.g. colour, viscosity, size of granules, or it could be achieved by having visually distinct particles included in the composition, in a minor amount.
  • Lamellar Visual Cue (or Lamellae)
  • Means visual cue particles in the form of planar film material made into shapes.
  • the shapes may be cut from a sheet of film or may be cast directly.
  • Such lamellae are also called "film particles”.
  • a granular laundry detergent composition comprising at least 5 wt% surfactant, optional builder, optional further cleaning ingredients, a perfume and 0.01 to 10 wt% of visual cues wherein the visual cue is flower shaped with petals coloured to have a naturally occurring petal colour and wherein the perfume is a floral perfume.
  • the visual cue colours are selected from the group comprising: yellow, red, blue, lilac, violet, orange, purple and green colours.
  • the visual cues have a diameter of between 2mm and 10mm.
  • the visual cues are advantageously formed of coloured soluble film material with a maximum thickness of 1mm, preferably 0.4 mm most preferably 0.25mm, most preferably 0.2 mm.
  • the visual cues preferably have a relative density of less than 0.8, preferably 0.5, most preferably 0.4. This ensures that the cues float and assists in continued provision of a visual cue for the perfume, even during the wash.
  • the petals must be evenly distributed throughout a detergent composition, so the segregation must be not too large. This is particularly significant when the cue is used in a detergent powder composition.
  • the petal shaped visual cues do not segregate unduly during mixing, handling, transport. Segregation would lead to unacceptable dosing variability for consumers. At the level of segregation observed the consumer accepts it. Moreover, there is evidence that the experienced level of segregation actually has a positive effect on performance due to the 'surprise' factor. This can be quantified experimentally by reflectance measurements.
  • Each visual cue preferably has a weight of > 1 mg and ⁇ 4 mg, more preferably between 1.5 and 3.5 mg and a specific gravity of > 200 and ⁇ 500, preferably between 250 and 400 is highly advantageous for the petals.
  • the invention also encompasses use of two or more completely different petals in one composition. These will advantageously have been cut from different films and may be different colours as well as different shapes and/or sizes.
  • the film from which the visual cue is made may itself be perfumed and/or it may incorporate other ingredients beneficial to the washing and/or designed to enhance the effect of the visual cue.
  • fluorescer fluorescer
  • pearlescent materials iridescent materials
  • reflecting materials iridescent materials
  • pro-fragrances material having tactile benefits such as glycerine
  • material delivering skin care benefits such as Aloe Vera.
  • fluorescer may increase the effect of the visual cue. It is also possible to include a low level of dye to counter any yellowing. Shading dye delivers a real benefit in the wash. Aloe Vera could be included this way too.
  • TAED TAED
  • Gerol Gerol
  • DTI-1 TAED
  • enzymes shading dye and perfume.
  • the most preferred ingredients for use in films are those that only need to be present at very low levels in the powder formulation, especially perfume, shading dye, bleach catalysts, fluorescer. Such materials may be instable in detergents due to interaction with moisture and other ingredients.
  • the film also permits a greater range of soluble dyes to be used than was possible for speckles. It also gives the advantage that there is very little if any bleeding of dye into the bulk of the powder. Soluble dyes are preferred over pigments, as they do not stain cloths.
  • the film contains polyvinyl alcohol (PVA).
  • the preferred film materials comprise water soluble polymer, surfactant and colorant.
  • Optional further ingredients are: adjuncts to assist in the manufacture of the film, for instance release agents and water. Besides its effect of control of relative humidity of the film, water also assists in plasticising the film and regulates its solubility.
  • the polymer may be selected from water soluble film forming polymers, especially those used in formulation of detergent powders.
  • Preferred polymers include polymers which dissolve and/disperse completely in water within 30 minutes with agitation at a temperature anywhere in the range of from 293 to 333K.
  • Preferred water soluble polymers are those capable of being cast into a film or solid mass, for example as described in Davidson and Sittig, Water-Soluble Resins, Van Nostrand Reinhold Company, New York (1968 ).

  • Polyvinyl alcohols preferred for use therein have an average molecular weight anywhere between 1,000 and 1,000,000, preferably between 5,000 and 250,000, for example between 15,000 and 150,000.
  • Hydrolysis, or alcoholysis is defined as the percent completion of the reaction where acetate groups on the resin are substituted with hydroxyl, -OH, groups,
  • a hydrolysis range of from 60-99% of polyvinyl alcohol film-forming resin is preferred, while a more preferred range of hydrolysis is from about 70-90% for water-soluble, polyvinyl alcohol film-forming resins. The most preferred range of hydrolysis is 80-89%.
  • polyvinyl alcohol includes polyvinyl acetate compounds with levels of hydroloysis disclosed herein.
  • Another suitable polymer is a polyvinyl alcohol film, made of a polyvinyl alcohol copolymer having a comonomer having a carboxylate function.
  • the preferred grade of PVA picks up water only at an RH well above that of granular detergent compositions. Thereby, it protects the other film ingredients from decomposition by water and soluble dyes from bleeding.

  • Preferred surfactants are the ones that may be included in the petal film composition.
  • Preferred builders are phosphates and carbonates.
  • Granular laundry detergent compositions for use in the invention may be built or unbuilt, low or high foaming, and contain any suitable type of detersive surfactant.

Although it is possible to include bleach, this is less preferred for hand wash compositions.
  • a petal shape is much preferred over squares and even over hexagons, when the composition to which it is added comprises perfume and most especially when the colour of the petal shape is selected from the natural shades of lilac, pink, yellow, blue, red etc. Users prefer the "petal" to a hexagon of the same size and colour. Without wishing to be bound by theory it is believed that the closer resemblance to the natural shape of the flower and the correlation between the shape, colour and smell emanating from the powder or wash liquor gave rise to this finding.
  • the petals may have some contrasting dots or a punched out area in the centre to increase their likeness to a real flower.
  • the exact mimicking of a flower is not essential.
  • the shapes can be smaller than a flower and can have somewhat simplified shapes and colour schemes to enable more cost effective manufacture without detracting from the result of enhanced perfume effect. This has been borne out in testing on human subjects.

  • the colour of the concave lamellae adds to the cueing and the colour, shape and smell should all be as close as possible to natural ones and related to the same smell, e.g. a floral smell.
  • the size of the concave lamellae does not seem to be as important as its shape or colour. This freedom to use smaller than life sized representations of objects as visual cues enables the use of more cues for the same surface area.
  • a 5 mm diameter visual cue with an approximate cross-sectional area of 13 mm 2 allows incorporation of the concave lamellar visual cues into a laundry treatment composition to deliver from 50 to 100 such cues per wash, preferably about 70 per wash.
  • Natural shapes that may also be used for concave lamellae that can be tiled are trees, leaves and animals.
