  • the number percentage of the packaged composition of particles comprising the core and coating is preferably at least 85%.
  • the coated particles preferably comprise from 0.001 to 3 wt % perfume.
  • the core of the coated particles preferably comprises less than 5 wt%, even more preferably less than 2.5 wt% inorganic materials.
  • the coating is preferably sodium carbonate, optionally in admixture with a minor amount of SCMC and further optionally in admixture with one or more of sodium silicate, water soluble fluorescer, water soluble or dispersible shading dye and pigment or coloured dye.
  • the particles are desirably oblate spheroids with diameter of 3 to 6 mm and thickness of 1 to 2 mm.
  • At least some, and preferably a major portion by number of the particles may be coloured other than white, as this can enhance the coloured particles.
  • Multicoloured, e.g. some blue and some white, particles have also been found to provide even higher visual definition for the optimum control of dose.
  • the measuring device may be a cap. Most preferably, it is a screw cap as that provides for more reliable protection against ingress of large amounts of water due to the cap being incorrectly replaced in use.
  • composition may be manufactured according to the process described in PCT/EP2010/055256 and PCT/EP2010/055257 i.e. comprising the steps of:
  • the cooled dried output from the evaporator or drier stage (b) comprising at least 95 wt% preferably 96 wt%, more preferably 97 wt%, most preferably 98 wt% surfactant to be transferred to a mill and milled to particles of less than 1.5 mm, preferably less than 1 mm average diameter before it is fed to the extrusion step (c).
  • a powdered flow aid such as Aerosil®, Alusil®, or Microsil®, with a particle diameter of from 0.1 to 10 ⁇ m may be added to the mill in an amount of 0.5 to 5 wt%, preferably 0.5 to 3 wt% (based on output from the mill) and blended into the particles during milling.
  • step b or the intermediate milling step, if used, is fed to the extruder, optionally along with minor amounts (less than 10 wt% total) of other materials such as perfume and /or fluorescer, and the mixture of materials fed to the extruder is extruded to form an extrudate with a diameter of greater than 2 mm, preferably greater than 3 mm, most preferably greater than 4 mm and preferably with a diameter of less than 7 mm, most preferably less than 5 mm, while periodically cutting the extrudate to form hard detergent particles with a maximum thickness of greater than 0.2 mm and less than 3 mm, preferably less than 2 mm, most preferably less than about 1.5 mm and more than about 0.5 mm, even 0.7 mm.
  • the invention also encompasses other cross sections such as triangular, rectangular and even complex cross sections, such as one mimicking a flower with rotationally symmetrical "petals".
  • the invention can be operated on any extrudate that can be forced through a hole in the extruder or extruder plate; the key being that the average thickness of the extrudate should be kept below the level where dissolution will be slow. As discussed above this is a thickness of about 2 mm. Desirably multiple extrusions are made simultaneously and they may all have the same cross section or may have different cross sections. Normally they will all have the same length as they are cut off by the knife.
  • the cutting knife should be as thin as possible to allow high speed extrusion and minimal distortion of the extrudate during cutting.
  • the extrusion should preferably take place at a temperature of less than 45°C, more preferably less than 40°C to avoid stickiness and facilitate cutting.
  • the extrudates according to the present process are cut so that their major dimension is across the extruder and the minor dimension is along the axis of the extruder. This is the opposite to the normal extrusion of surfactants. Cutting in this way increases the surface area that is a "cut" surface. It also allows the extruded particle to expand considerably along its axis after cutting, whilst maintaining a relatively high surface to volume ratio, which is believed to increase its solubility and also results in an attractive biconvex, or lentil, appearance. Elsewhere we refer to this shape as an oblate spheroid. This is essentially a rotation of an ellipse about its minor axis.
  • the LAS containing surfactant blends can be extruded to make solid detergent particles that are hard enough to be used without any need to be structured by inorganic materials or other structurants as commonly found in prior art extruded detergent particles.
  • the amount of surfactant in the detergent particle can be much higher and the amount of builder in the detergent particle can be much lower.
  • the blend in step (a) comprises at least about 60 wt%, most preferably at least about 70 wt% surfactant and preferably at most about 40 wt%, most preferably at most 30 wt% water, the surfactant part consisting of at least 51 wt% linear alkyl benzene sulphonate salt (LAS) and at least one co-surfactant;
  • LAS linear alkyl benzene sulphonate salt
  • the co-surfactant is chosen from the group consisting of: SLES, and nonionic, together with optional soap and mixtures thereof.
  • SLES SLES
  • nonionic the upper limit for the amount of nonionic surfactant has been found to be 20 wt% of the total surfactant to avoid the dried material being too soft and cohesive to extrude because it has a hardness value less than 0.5 MPa.
  • the surfactant blend is dried in step (b) to a moisture content of less than 1.2 wt%, more preferably less than 1.1 wt%, and most preferably less than 1 wt%.
  • Drying may suitably be carried out using a wiped film evaporator or a Chemithon Turbo Tube® drier.
  • the extruded hard detergent particles may be coated by transferring them to a fluid bed and spraying onto them up to 40 wt% (based on coated detergent particle) of inorganic material in aqueous solution and drying off the water.
  • the coating material is not contributing to the wash performance of the composition then it is desirable to keep the level of coating as low as possible, preferably less than 35 wt% even less than 30 wt%, especially for larger extruded particles with a surface area to volume ratio of greater than 4 mm -1 .
  • the detergent composition preferably comprises at least 85 wt% of coated particles. However, compositions with up to 100 wt% of the particles are possible when basic additives are incorporated into the extruded particles, or into their coating.
  • the composition may also comprise, for example, an antifoam granule.
  • Particles of different colours may be used in admixture, or they can be blended with contrasting powder.
  • particles of the same colour as one another may also be used to form a full composition.
  • the coating quality and appearance is very good due to the excellent surface of the cut extrudates onto which the coating is applied in association with the large particle size and S/V ratios of the preferred particles.
  • the detergent particles comprise perfume.
  • the perfume may be added into the extruder or premixed with the surfactant blend in the mill, or in a mixer placed after the mill, either as a liquid or as encapsulated perfume particles.
  • the perfume may be mixed with a nonionic material and blended. Such a blend may alternatively be applied by coating the extruded particles, for example by spraying it mixed with molten nonionic surfactant.
  • Perfume may also be introduced into the composition by means of a separate perfume granule and then the detergent particle does not need to comprise any perfume.
  • Surfactant blends that do not require builders to be present for effective detergency in hard water are preferred. Such blends are called calcium tolerant surfactant blends if they pass the test set out hereinafter. Thus, it may be advantageous if the extruded core is made using a calcium tolerant surfactant blend according to the test herein described. However, the invention may also be of use for washing with soft water, either naturally occurring or made using a water softener. In this case, calcium tolerance is no longer important and blends other than calcium tolerant ones may be used.
  • LAS can be at least partially replaced by MES, or, less preferably, partially replaced by up to 20 wt % PAS.
  • the surfactants are mixed together before being input to the drier. Conventional mixing equipment is used.
  • scraped film devices may be used.
  • a preferred form of scraped film device is a wiped film evaporator.
  • One such suitable wiped film evaporator is the "Dryex system" based on a wiped film evaporator available from Ballestra S.p.A..
  • Alternative drying equipment includes tube-type driers, such as a Chemithon Turbo Tube® drier, and soap driers.
  • the hot material exiting the scraped film drier is subsequently cooled and broken up into suitable sized pieces to feed to the extruder. Simultaneous cooling and breaking into flakes may conveniently be carried out using a chill roll. If the flakes from the chill roll are not suitable for direct feed to the extruder then they can be milled in a milling apparatus and /or they can be blended with other liquid or solid ingredients in a blending and milling apparatus, such as a ribbon mill. Such milled or blended material is desirably of particle size 1 mm or less for feeding to the extruder.
  • Particulate material with a mean particle size of 10 nm to 10 ⁇ m is preferred for use as a milling aid.
  • materials there may be mentioned, by way of example: aerosil®, alusil®, and microsil®.
  • the extruder provides further opportunities to blend in ingredients other than surfactants, or even to add further surfactants.
  • all of the anionic surfactant, or other surfactant supplied in admixture with water; i.e. as paste or as solution, is added into the drier to ensure that the water content can then be reduced and the material fed to and through the extruder is sufficiently dry.
  • Additional materials that can be blended into the extruder are thus mainly those that are used at very low levels in a detergent composition: such as fluorescer, shading dye, enzymes, perfume, silicone antifoams, polymeric additives and preservatives.
  • Solid additives are generally preferred. Liquids, such as perfume may be added at levels up to 2.5 wt%, preferably up to 1.5 wt%. Solid particulate structuring (liquid absorbing) materials or builders, such as zeolite, carbonate, silicate are preferably not added to the blend being extruded. These materials are not needed due to the self structuring properties of the very dry LAS-based feed material. If any is used the total amount should be less than 5 wt%, preferably less than 4 wt%, most preferably less than 3 wt%. At such levels no significant structuring occurs and the inorganic particulate material is added for a different purpose, for instance as a flow aid to improve the feed of particles to the extruder.
  • the output from the extruder is shaped by the die plate used.
  • the extruded material has a tendency to swell up in the centre relative to the periphery.
  • An advantageous variant of the process takes the sliced extruded particles and coats them. This allows the particles to be coloured easily. It also further reduces the stickiness of the hygroscopic surfactant core to a point where the particles are free flowing. Coating makes them more suitable for use in detergent compositions that may be exposed to high humidity for long periods.
  • the thickness of coating obtainable by use of a coating level of say 5 wt% is much greater than would be achieved on typically sized detergent granules (0.5-2mm diameter sphere).
  • the extruded particles can be considered as oblate spheroids with a major radius "a” and minor radius "b".
  • this surface area to volume ratio must be greater than 3 mm-1.
  • the coating thickness is inversely proportional to this coefficient and hence for the coating the ratio "Surface area of coated particle" divided by "Volume of coated particle” should be less than 15 mm-1.
  • any known coating may be used, for instance organic, including polymer
  • An aqueous spray-on of coating solution in a fluidised bed may also generate a further slight rounding of the detergent particles during the fluidisation process.
  • Suitable inorganic coating solutions include sodium carbonate, possibly in admixture with sodium sulphate, and sodium chloride. Food dyes, shading dyes, fluorescer and other optical modifiers can be added to the coating by dissolving them in the spray-on solution or dispersion.
  • Use of a builder salt such as sodium carbonate is particularly advantageous because it allows the detergent particle to have an even better performance by buffering the system in use at an ideal pH for maximum detergency of the anionic surfactant system. It also increases ionic strength, which is known to improve cleaning in hard water, and it is compatible with other detergent ingredients that may be admixed with the coated extruded detergent particles.
  • the amount of coating should lie in the range 3 to 50 wt% of the particle, preferably 20 to 40 wt% for the best results in terms of anti-caking properties of the detergent particles.
  • the coated particles dissolve easily in water and leave very low or no residues on dissolution, due to the absence of insoluble structurant materials such as zeolite.
  • the coated particles have an exceptional visual appearance, due to the smoothness of the coating coupled with the smoothness of the underlying particles, which is also believed to be a result of the lack of particulate structuring material in the extruded particles.
  • the coated detergent particle is curved.
  • the size is such that y and z are at least 3 mm, preferably 4 mm, most preferably 5 mm and x lies in the range 1 to 2 mm.
  • the coated laundry detergent particle may be shaped as a disc.
  • the core is primarily surfactant. It may also include detergency additives, such as perfume, shading dye, enzymes, cleaning polymers and soil release polymers.
  • the coated laundry detergent particle comprises between 50 to 90 wt% of a surfactant, most preferably 70 to 90 wt%.
  • a surfactant most preferably 70 to 90 wt%.
  • the nonionic and anionic surfactants of the surfactant system may be chosen from the surfactants described " Surface Active Agents" Vol. 1, by Schwartz & Perry , Interscience 1949, Vol. 2 by Schwartz, Perry & Berch , Interscience 1958, in the current edition of "McCutcheon's Emulsifiers and Detergents” published by Manufacturing Confectioners Company or in " Tenside Taschenbuch", H. Stache, 2nd Edn., Carl Hauser Verlag, 1981 .
  • the surfactants used are saturated.
  • Suitable anionic detergent compounds that may be used are usually water-soluble alkali metal salts of organic sulphates and sulphonates having alkyl radicals containing from about 8 to about 22 carbon atoms, the term alkyl being used to include the alkyl portion of higher acyl radicals.

  • the anionic surfactant is present in the coated laundry detergent particle at levels between 15 to 85 wt%, more preferably 50 to 80wt%.
  • Suitable non-ionic detergent compounds which may be used include, in particular, the reaction products of compounds having a hydrophobic group and a reactive hydrogen atom, for example, aliphatic alcohols, acids, amides or alkyl phenols with alkylene oxides, especially ethylene oxide either alone or with propylene oxide.

  • the adsorption of light of wavelength 540 nm through 4 mm of sample is measured 15 minutes after sample preparation. Ten measurements are made and an average value is calculated. Samples that give an absorption value of less than 0.08 are deemed to be calcium tolerant.
  • Suitable calcium tolerant co-surfactants include SLES 1-7EO, and alkyl ethoxylate non-ionic surfactants, particularly those with melting points less than 40°C.
  • a LAS/SLES surfactant blend has a superior foam profile to a LAS Nonionic surfactant blend and is therefore preferred for hand washing formulations requiring high levels of foam.
