Ferner hat sich gezeigt, dass der Polymerkörper nach Beendigung des Wasch- und/oder Konditionierungsverfahren auf seiner Oberfläche weniger stark eingefärbt bzw. verschmutzt ist. Durch das deutlich sauberere Aussehen des Polymerkörpers hat der Verbraucher deutlich weniger Hemmungen, den Polymerkörper mehrfach zu verwenden.It has also been shown that the polymer body is less strongly colored or soiled on its surface after completion of the washing and / or conditioning process. Due to the much cleaner appearance of the polymer body, the consumer has significantly fewer inhibitions to use the polymer body multiple times.

When the H 2 O 2 and / or the detergent composition is applied to the polymer body and / or absorbed by the polymer body, the wetting of the fabric also causes the transport of H 2 O 2 and / or the detergent composition ingredients from the polymer body to the fabrics improved. The moistening of the textile surface fabrics can be carried out, for example, by wetting with water or an aqueous solution of the detergent composition.
Die Menge an Wasser, die vorteilhafter Weise eingesetzt wird, hängt auch von der Wasseraufnahmekapazität der textilen Flächengebilde ab. Es ist jedoch im Allgemeinen bevorzugt, dass das Gewichtsverhältnis textile Flächengebilde zu Wasser von 1 : 0,1 bis 1 : 5 und mehr bevorzugt von 1 : 0,2 bis 1 : 2 beträgt.The amount of water that is used advantageously also depends on the water absorption capacity of the textile fabrics.

Schließt sich dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren kein Spülgang an, so ist es bevorzugt, dass die Waschmittelzusammensetzung keine Inhaltsstoffe enthält, die bei Kontakt mit Haut eine Sensibilisierung oder Allergien auslösen können. Deshalb kann es beispielsweise bevorzugt sein, dass die Waschmittelzusammensetzung frei von Enzymen ist.If no rinse is involved in the process of the present invention, it is preferred that the detergent composition contain no ingredients capable of causing sensitization or allergies upon contact with skin. Therefore, for example, it may be preferable for the detergent composition to be free of enzymes.
Die Waschmittelzusammensetzung selber kann fest, flüssig, gelförmig, wachsartig oder pastenförmig sein, wobei flüssige Waschmittel aufgrund der besseren Löseeigenschaften insbesondere bevorzugt sind.The detergent composition itself may be solid, liquid, gel, waxy or pasty, with liquid detergents being particularly preferred due to the improved quenching properties.
Die Waschmittelzusammensetzung kann separat und/oder auf dem Polymerkörper aufgebracht und/oder vom Polymerkörper absorbiert in dem Verfahren eingesetzt werden. Es kann bevorzugt sein, dass der Polymerkörper mit der Waschmittelzusammensetzung beschichtet ist. Wird die Waschmittelzusammensetzung auf dem Polymerkörper aufgebracht und/oder vom Polymerkörper absorbiert in dem Verfahren eingesetzt, erleichtert dies dem Anwender die Durchführung des Verfahrens, da er die Waschmittelzusammensetzung nicht noch separat zu dosieren muss.The detergent composition can be applied separately and / or on the polymer body and / or absorbed by the polymer body in the process. It may be preferred that the polymer body is coated with the detergent composition. When the detergent composition is applied to the polymer body and / or absorbed by the polymer body used in the process, this facilitates the operation of the process for the user since he does not yet have to dose the detergent composition separately.
Neben dem Polymerkörper und der Waschmittelzusammensetzung enthält die Formulierung Wasserstoffperoxid. Wasserstoffperoxid ist ein preiswertes Bleichmittel und hinterlässt keine Rückstände auf den damit behandelten textilen Flächengebilden.In addition to the polymer body and the detergent composition, the formulation contains hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is a cheap bleaching agent and does not leave any residue on the treated textile fabrics.
Das Wasserstoffperoxid kann separat und/oder in der Waschmittelzusammensetzung eingearbeitet und/oder auf dem Polymerkörper aufgebracht und/oder vom Polymerkörper absorbiert in dem Verfahren eingesetzt werden. Ist das Wasserstoffperoxid bereits in Waschmittelzusammensetzung eingearbeitet oder wird auf dem Polymerkörper aufgebracht und/oder vom Polymerkörper absorbiert in dem Verfahren eingesetzt, vermeidet dies, dass der Anwender in direkten Kontakt mit dem Wasserstoffperoxid kommt.The hydrogen peroxide may be incorporated separately and / or in the detergent composition and / or applied to the polymer body and / or absorbed by the polymer body in the process. If the hydrogen peroxide is already incorporated into detergent composition or is applied to the polymer body and / or absorbed by the polymer body in the process, this avoids the user coming into direct contact with the hydrogen peroxide.
Die Menge an H2O2 beträgt vorzugsweise 0,5 bis 10 g und mehr bevorzugt 0,5 bis 3 g pro Waschladung, wobei die Waschladung bis zu 5 kg wiegt.The amount of H 2 O 2 is preferably 0.5 to 10 g and more preferably 0.5 to 3 g per wash load, the wash load weighing up to 5 kg.
Das Verfahren kann in eigens dafür ausgelegten Waschmaschinen durchgeführt werden. Dabei können die eingesetzten Polymerkörper entweder separat durch den Anwender des Verfahrens in die Waschtrommel eingeführt werden oder, in einer alternativen Ausführungsform, in einer Vorratskammer innerhalb der Waschmaschine aufbewahrt und dann zum Waschgang in die Waschtrommel automatisch dosiert werden. Die Polymerkörper können nach Beendigung des Waschverfahrens entweder zusammen mit den gereinigten textilen Flächengebilden entfernt oder in die Vorratskammer für weitere Anwendungen zurückgeführt werden.The process can be carried out in specially designed washing machines. The polymer bodies used can either be introduced separately into the washing drum by the user of the method or, in an alternative embodiment, stored in a storage chamber within the washing machine and then to the wash cycle in the washing machine Wash drum automatically dosed. The polymer bodies may be either removed along with the cleaned fabrics after completion of the washing process or returned to the pantry for other applications.
Bei mehrfacher Anwendung eines Polymerkörpers kann es bevorzugt sein, dass dieser einem Auffrischungsschritt unterzogen werden. Dies kann beispielsweise durch Spülen des Polymerkörpers mit einer Reinigungslösung, um anhaftende Pigmentpartikel zu entfernen und/oder Bleichen der in den äußeren Schichten der Polymerkörper anhaftenden Schmutzpartikel erfolgen. Dieser Auffrischungsschritt kann zum Beispiel automatisch in einer dafür ausgelegten Waschmaschine oder separat erfolgen.When using a polymer body several times, it may be preferable to subject it to a refreshing step. This can be done, for example, by rinsing the polymer body with a cleaning solution in order to remove adhering pigment particles and / or bleaching the dirt particles adhering in the outer layers of the polymer bodies. This refreshing step may for example be done automatically in a dedicated washing machine or separately.
In einer alternativen Ausführungsform kann das Verfahren in einem handelsüblichen Trockner durchgeführt werden. Dazu werden die feuchten, zu reinigenden Textilien zusammen mit dem/den Polymerkörper(n), der Waschmittelzusammensetzung und dem Wasserstoffperoxid in einen Luft-, Wasser- und Wasserdampf-dichten Beutel gegeben und dieser wird anschließend verschlossen in einem Trockner platziert. Nach Beendigung des Trockenprogramms wird der Beutel entnommen und die gereinigten textilen Flächengebilde werden entnommen sowie getrocknet.In an alternative embodiment, the process can be carried out in a commercially available dryer. For this purpose, the moist, to be cleaned textiles together with the / the polymer body (s), the detergent composition and the hydrogen peroxide in an air, water and water vapor-tight bag and this is then placed sealed in a dryer. After completion of the drying program, the bag is removed and the cleaned fabrics are removed and dried.

In einen Autoklaven-Beutel wurden 550 g Polyamid-Chips aus PA 66 (Zytel® 101 von DuPont) mit einer Länge von ca. 4 mm, einer Breite von 3 mm und einem Gewicht von 30 bis 40 mg pro Chip gegeben. Parallel wurden 150 g weiße Gerstenkornhandtücher auf denen Standard-Testgewebe aus Baumwolle mit Testflecken befestigt waren, mit einer wässrigen Lösung aus 290,7 g Wasser, 1 g H2O2 (Aktivsubstanz) und 11,81 g Waschmittel A angefeuchtet. Anschließend wurde der Beutel verschlossen und in die Trommel eines Trockners (Miele Novotronic T 7644 C) überführt. Zusätzlich wurden in die Trommel 2000 g Frotteehandtücher, welche mit 2000 g Wasser angefeuchtet waren, gegeben. Nach Durchlauf des Programms "cotton extra dry" (Dauer: 90 Minuten) wurden die mit den befleckten Standardtestgeweben versehenen Gerstenkornhandtücher aus dem Autoklaven-Beutel genommen, hängend getrocknet und anschließend wurde der Grad der Fleckentfernung bestimmt.An autoclave pouch was charged with 550 g nylon PA 66 (Zytel® 101 from DuPont) polyamide chips having a length of about 4 mm, a width of 3 mm and a weight of 30 to 40 mg per chip. In parallel, 150 g of white barley grain towels on which standard cotton test cloths were attached with test spots were moistened with an aqueous solution of 290.7 g of water, 1 g of H 2 O 2 (active ingredient) and 11.81 g of Detergent A. The bag was then closed and transferred to the drum of a dryer (Miele Novotronic T 7644 C). In addition, 2000 g of terry towels moistened with 2000 g of water were placed in the drum. After running the "cotton extra dry" program (duration: 90 minutes), the barley grain towels provided with the stained standard test fabrics were removed from the autoclave bag, dried hanging, and then the degree of stain removal was determined.
Es wurde analog wie in Ausführungsbeispiel 1 verfahren, mit dem Unterschied, dass die FrotteeHandtücher mit einer wässrigen Lösung aus 290,7 g Wasser und 11,81 g Waschmittel A angefeuchtet wurden.The procedure was analogous to Example 1 except that the terry towels were moistened with an aqueous solution of 290.7 g of water and 11.81 g of detergent A.
Das Waschmittel A enthielt 21,1 Gew.-% Tenside (nichtionische und anionische Tenside), sowie weitere übliche Bestandteile von flüssigen Waschmitteln wie das Natriumsalz von Citronensäure, Natriummetaborat, Entschäumer, Acrylatverdicker, wassermischbare Lösungsmittel, optischen Aufheller, Farbstoffe, Parfüm und Wasser. Das Waschmittel A war frei von Enzymen.Detergent A contained 21.1% by weight of surfactants (nonionic and anionic surfactants), as well as other common ingredients of liquid detergents such as the sodium salt of citric acid, sodium metaborate, defoamers, acrylate thickeners, water-miscible solvents, optical brighteners, dyes, perfume and water. Detergent A was free of enzymes.
Die Bestimmung der Fähigkeit der Fleckentfernung erfolgte über die Bestimmung des Normfarbwertes Y (DIN 5033). Dazu wurden die Y-Werte der befleckten, unbehandelten Standardgewebe und die Y-Werte der befleckten, in einem der beiden Verfahren E oder V behandelten Textilien bestimmt (siehe Tabelle 2). Die Bestimmung erfolgte bei 420 nm (Gerät: Datacolor Spectraflash 600, 30 mm Blende). Bei den natürlichen Anschmutzungen erfolgte die Bewertung der Fleckentfernung über den dY-Wert (Y-Wert des unbehandelten Flecks minus Y-Wert des behandelten Flecks).
Die Ergebnisse zeigen deutlich, dass durch Zugabe von H2O2 nicht nur eine deutlich verbesserte Fleckentfernung bei bleichbaren Flecken, sondern auch bei einer Vielzahl anderer Flecken auftritt. Außerdem waren die Polyamid-Chips, welche im erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren eingesetzt wurden, deutlich weniger stark verfärbt/angeschmutzt als die Polyamid-Chips, die im Verfahren V eingesetzt wurden.The results clearly show that addition of H 2 O 2 not only results in markedly improved stain removal on bleachable stains, but also on a variety of other stains. In addition, the polyamide chips used in the process according to the invention were much less discolored / soiled than the polyamide chips used in process V.
Außerdem zeigte sich, dass die Schmutzübertragung auf das weiße, nicht angeschmutzte Gewebein dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren E deutlich weniger stark war, als im Verfahren V.In addition, it was found that the dirt transfer to the white, not soiled fabric in process E according to the invention was significantly less pronounced than in process V.
