Description
- The present invention relates to laundry composition comprising an anionic silicone that display improved stability.
- Silicones are an attractive ingredient for laundry compositions as they provide softening benefits to the laundered fabric. Grafting a mono-anionic functionalised silicone onto a polysaccharide backbone is known from
WO 2003/020770 . -
WO 03/020819 -
WO 2005/118761 discloses a composition comprising:(a) a water-soluble or dispersible polysaccharide having a hydrophobic agent bonded thereto by a hydrolytically stable bond and (b) a sugar polyester (SPE). -
WO 03/050144 -
US 2005/250904 discloses organopolysiloxane-modified polysaccharide prepared by esterfication reacting (A) an organopolysiloxane having residual carboxylic anhydride groups and (B) a polysaccharide having hydroxyl groups, wherein the organopolysiloxane is bonded to the polysaccharide through half ester groups. - The prior art still has a problem that grafted silicones may lead to unstable laundry compositions, particularly when anionic silicones are used, as they are prone to cloudiness and haze. This is unacceptable for the consumer.
- It is an object of the invention to improve upon the stability of formulations that include polysaccharide grafted silicones. It is particularly an object to provide a formulation that is less cloudy or hazy.
- We have now found that if instead of a monofunctional anionic silicone, a multifunctional anionic silicone is grafted to the polysaccharide, then the resulting laundry detergent composition has improved stability and is less hazy or cloudy.
- The present invention therefore provides in a first aspect of the invention, a polysaccharide having an anionic functional silicone grafted thereto, wherein the silicone has at least one residual anionic group and wherein the polysaccharide is selected from: poly-mannose, gluco-mannan, galacto-mannan and xylo-glucan polysaccharides.
- Preferably the polysaccharide is galacto-mannan and/or xylo-glucan.
- Preferably the polysaccharide is a nonionic polysaccharide or a cationic polysaccharide.
- Preferably the anionic silicone incorporates carboxylic, sulphate, sulphonic, phosphate and/or phosphonate functionality. More preferably the anionic silicones are carboxyl functionalised silicones.
- Preferably the anionic silicone once grafted has an anionic group content of at least 0.1 mol%, preferably 0.5 mol%, more preferably 1 mol%, most preferably 2 mol%.
- Preferably the polysaccharide is a galacto-mannan and/or xylo-glucan having a silicone grafted thereto, wherein the silicone has at least 1 carboxyl group, preferably 2 carboxy groups after grafting.
- A second aspect of the invention is a laundry treatment composition comprising:
- a) from 1 to 40 wt.% of surfactant, comprising anionic and optionally nonionic surfactant; and,
- b) from 0.05 to 10 wt.% of a polysaccharide having an anionic functional silicone grafted thereto, wherein the silicone has at least one residual anionic group.
- Preferably the laundry treatment composition is in the form of a main wash laundry detergent.
- Preferably the laundry treatment composition comprises from 2.5 to 25 wt.%, more preferably from 4 to 20 wt.% of an anionic surfactant.
- Preferably the laundry treatment composition comprises from 0.5 to 25 wt.% more preferably from 2.5 to 15 wt.% of a nonionic surfactant, and optionally a fatty acid or soap thereof.
- Preferably the laundry treatment formulation contains from 0.05 to 2.5 wt.%, of a cationic polymer, more preferably a cationic polysaccharide, most preferably a cationic cellulose polymer.
- Preferably the laundry treatment composition comprises:
- a) from 6.5 to 38 wt.% of surfactant, comprising from 4 to 20 wt.% of an anionic and from 2.5 to 15 wt.% of a nonionic surfactant;
- b) from 0.05 to 10 wt.% of a galacto-mannan and/or xylo-glucan having a silicone grafted thereto, wherein the silicone has at least 1 carboxyl group, preferably 2 carboxy groups after grafting;
- c) from 0.5 to 2.5 wt.%, of a cationic polysaccharide polymer; and,
- d) optionally from 1 to 12 wt.% of a fatty acid.
- A third aspect of the invention is to the use of a polysaccharide having an anionic functional silicone grafted thereto, wherein the silicone has at least one residual anionic group, soften fabrics wherein the silicone has at least one residual anionic group and wherein the polysaccharide is selected from: poly-mannose, gluco-mannan, galacto-mannan and xylo-glucan polysaccharides.
- A polysaccharide is a long chain polymer type material made up of the same or different saccharide rings. The polysaccharide may be straight chain, or branched.
- Examples of straight chain polysaccharides are poly-glucose and poly-mannose polysaccharides. Examples of branched polysaccharides are gluco-mannan, galacto-mannan and xylo-glucan polysaccharides.
- The polysaccharide is selected from: poly-mannose, gluco-mannan, galacto-mannan and xylo-glucan polysaccharides. More preferably the polysaccharide is galacto-mannan and/or xylo-glucan.
- The polysaccharide has an anionic functional silicone grafted thereto. By anionic functional silicone is meant that the silicone, once grafted to the polysaccharide, has at least one residual anionic group remaining. Preferably the silicone, once grafted to the polysaccharide has at least 2 anionic groups, more preferably at least 3 anionic groups. Preferably the silicone, once grafted to the polysaccharide has from 1 to 10, more preferably from 2 to 10, most preferably from 3 to 10 anionic groups.
- The anionic group can be detected using methods available in the field, for example NMR or IR spectroscopy.
- The grafting of an anionic silicone to the polysaccharide will generally require reaction via the anionic group. Thus when using a mono-functional anionic silicone, the anionic group is used up to enable grafting to the polysaccharide. This means that the silicone once grated onto the polysaccharide will not have any anionic groups remaining.
- The inventions requires there to be at least one anionic moiety remaining on the grafted silicone. This provides a laundry detergent composition has improved stability and is less hazy or cloudy.
- Preferably the anionic silicone once grafted has an anionic group content of at least 0.1 mol%, preferably 0.5 mol%, more preferably 1 mol%, most preferably 2 mol%.
- Examples of anionic silicones are silicones that incorporate carboxylic, sulphate, sulphonic, phosphate and/or phosphonate functionality.

Preferably the composition is in the form of a liquid laundry product. Preferably they are main wash products. It can take the form of a laundry composition for the main wash, which may be dilutable or non-dilutable.

- The resulting polysaccharide grafted silicone has residual anionic groups remaining after the grafting process is over.
