Definitions
- the present invention is in the field of hard surface cleaning compositions; in particular antifoaming composition for use in detergent compositions having foaming and cleaning characteristics in the main wash, yet significant foam reduction during rinse.
- One way of saving water is to reuse the water and another way is to reduce the amount of water being used.
- Washing processes including laundry, dishwashing and other household cleaning processes, require large amounts of water throughout the world. These are daily chores in which the use of water and a detergent cannot be avoided. Consumers usually like to see a lot of foam while washing as they associate foaming with detergent efficiency. However, it's rinsing that often takes a lot of effort and uses excess of water. This is predominantly caused by the consumer perception that they need to continue rinsing until the rinse water is no longer foaming. Thus, it has been a challenge to provide consumers with a cleaning composition that maintains the foam in the main wash while exhibiting an antifoaming effect during rinse.
- US 4,869,842 discloses a liquid cleaning composition for use as a hard surface cleaner, comprising a base liquid composition comprising a base composition of an anionic surfactant, a non-ionic surfactant, a non-polar grease removal solvent, a water soluble detergent builder salt, optionally a perfume and a dye and water; and an abrasive.
- a base liquid composition comprising a base composition of an anionic surfactant, a non-ionic surfactant, a non-polar grease removal solvent, a water soluble detergent builder salt, optionally a perfume and a dye and water; and an abrasive.

- this document does not disclose an inorganic abrasive coated with a fatty acid for an antifoaming effect during rinse.
- JP2006193733 discloses an inorganic abrasive-containing liquid detergent composition having thixotropic properties, excellent in detergency, by uniformly and stably dispersing an inorganic abrasive in a liquid, and having good storage stability and a good appearance.
- This inorganic abrasive-containing liquid detergent composition contains a non-soap based anionic surfactant, a semi-polar surfactant having a specific structural formula, for example, represented by a 10-14C alkyldimethylamine oxide, at least one kind of an 8-24C straight-chain/branched higher alcohol and/or fatty acid and an inorganic abrasive, a viscosity at 60 rpm of the composition is 1 ,000-5,000 mPa/s, when measured by a Brookfield viscometer at 25 degrees centigrade, and a ratio of viscosity at 6 rpm to viscosity at 60 rpm is 5 or more.
- This document again has no disclosure of an inorganic abrasive coated with a fatty acid for an antifoaming effect during rinse. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide water saving in household process, especially hand dish wash processes.

- anionic surfactant 2.5 grams was taken in a 50ml_ Tarson® tube (the concentrations of the surfactant in the examples have been calculated taking into account the purity of the material). 25ml_ of de-mineralized water was added to the surfactant and vortexed till the surfactant had dissolved completely. The fatty acid(s) was then added to the mixture and heated to a temperature of 60°C in a water bath (maintained at 65°C). The mixture was stirred in between to ensure homogenous mixing. After complete solubilization of the fatty acid, the mixture was cooled to a temperature of 25 to 30°C, to which the non-ionic surfactant, hydrophobic particles and the filler were added and stirred for about 2 to 3 minutes by vortexing.
- a total of 0.63 grams of antifoaming composition was used in all the examples. 475ml_ of de-mineralized water was then added to the mixture and stirred again for about 2 to 3 minutes. The final mixture was allowed to cool before being used for foam volume studies.
- test solution for the measurement of foam volume, standard cylinder shake method was used. 6.25 g/l of the test solution was prepared in 24 F.H. water. 50 ml of the test solution was taken in a 250 ml graduated glass cylinder. The solution was shook by covering the opening of the cylinder and inverting it 10 times. Then the cylinder was placed on a flat surface of a table for one minute for the aqueous layer to separate and it was shook once again to even out the foam level. The volume of foam (excluding aliquot water), in ml was measured and recorded as the initial foam volume.
- composition according to the invention performs better with respect to the number of rinse cycles than any of the comparative examples, whilst maintaining a high foam value during the main wash.
- Example 2 Effect of concentration of fatty acid on foam volume
- the table above shows that best results for antifoaming effect during rinse are obtained at a fatty acid concentration within the scope of the present invention.
- the table also indicates that at higher fatty acid concentrations, the initial foam is considerably compromised (C8 and C9).
- compositions according to the invention comprising different concentrations of non-ionic surfactant (Ex 4 to Ex 6) are compared with comparative compositions having non-ionic surfactant in a concentration outside the scope of the present invention (C10 and C10a).
- This example demonstrates the effect of concentration of hydrophobic particles on initial foam and the antifoaming effect during rinse.
- the example compositions Ex 7, Ex 7a, Ex 7b and Ex 8 are compared with comparative examples C1 1 , C12 and C12a comprising hydrophobic particles in a concentration outside the scope of the invention.
- Example 5 Effect of a different fatty acid on foam volume
- Example 6 Effect of a different non-ionic surfactant on foam volume
