Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a shaped solid cleaning composition and a method of cleaning a substrate, in particular a fabric substrate.
  • Two-step reactive cleaning methods involving contacting of a fabric with two reactive components in succession in an aqueous media are known.
  • one of the reactive components comprises fatty acid and/or other acidic materials and the other component comprises alkaline material.
  • GB338121 (Marquardt and Walter, 1930) describes a process of washing by adding together or one after another two components to the wash where the first component comprises saponifiable fatty acids such as oleic acid, palmitic acid, or stearic acid and the second component comprises alkaline saponifying agents such as sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate or sodium hydroxide.
  • saponifiable fatty acids such as oleic acid, palmitic acid, or stearic acid
  • alkaline saponifying agents such as sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate or sodium hydroxide.
  • FR1460904 (Kornbaum Simon, 1966) describes a process of washing in which aqueous emulsion of saponifiable fatty acids is combined with the alkaline wash solution.
  • Fatty acids are preferably selected from oleic acid or low-melting fatty acid mixture and emulsifying agent is a low HLB nonionic surfactant.
  • GB333177 (Rayner, 1930) describes a process of washing consisting of successively treating the material to be washed with a dilute emulsion of saponifiable fatty acids and with a dilute alkali to generate soap in-situ.
  • GB501422 (Pollard, 1939) describes a process for washing articles with a fatty acid component and an alkali component where the aqueous fatty acid emulsion comprises methyl cyclohexanol.
  • emulsifying agents in the above cited prior art increases cost without providing any additional cleaning benefit. Stability of such emulsions, particularly at relatively low temperatures is another problem which manifests in de-emulsification at temperature below freezing point. Furthermore, application of emulsions to fabric is relatively less convenient and leads to wastage as emulsion disperses in the aqueous medium particularly when mechanical force is applied in cleaning, causing the reactive components to react away from the fabric surface in the aqueous medium rather than in-situ on or near the fabric surface.
  • EP11767501 (Procter and Gamble, 2002) describes a process of washing a fabric by successively treating the fabric, in any order, with a first component and a second component which are capable of generating heat upon contact.

  • the skin pH bar can contain little or no soap, yet has a shallow penetration value of from zero up to 12 mm.
  • EP165863 discloses a melt cast solid cleansing composition free of soap consisting of 15-50% by weight of fatty acid selected from myristic acid, stearic acid, palmitic acid, hydroxy stearic acid, and mixtures thereof; 2-40% by weight non soap detergent active, and 30-60% by weight water and wherein the said composition is free of pure lyotropic liquid crystalline phase in the temperature range 20-100 0 C and forms an isotropic liquid phase or a dispersion of lyotropic liquid crystalline phase in the continuum of isotropic liquid in the temperature range 40-100 0 C.
