Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the use of an aqueous, phosphate-free, structured liquid detergent composition, in particular a heavy duty liquid detergent (HDL) that comprises a builder system, a surfactant system and water, wherein the builder system comprises five separate builder components as detergent for textiles.
  • HDL heavy duty liquid detergent
  • the invention further relates to methods for washing of textiles using the detergents of the invention.
  • Liquid detergent compositions are well-known in the art and widely used. Over recent years, the have become more and more popular with the consumers because they offer a number of advantages over solid compositions, including, for example, the ease of dosing, dispensing and dissolving into a laundering liquor. In addition, they are perceived to be safer and less harsh to the textiles and environment compared to solid compositions. In particular for laundering colored fabrics they have gained popularity ever since their introduction on the market.
  • liquid detergent compositions in particular phosphate-free heavy duty liquid (HDL) detergents suffer from physical and chemical instability and viscosity problems. This is particularly problematic for highly concentrated formulations.
  • HDL detergents have been introduced as early as the 1970's, the known stable formulations rely on the use of phosphates, in particular sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP), to form structured liquids containing high levels of builders and surfactants.
  • STPP sodium tripolyphosphate
  • multilayered vesicles are formed that stabilize the formulation and prevent precipitation of the anionic surfactants by the builder components. These structures are stable and can be characterized by microscopic examination under polarized light and conductivity measurements.
  • STPP was particularly suited to formation of vesicles with sodium alkylbenzene sulfonate (sodium LAS).
  • STPP was well established as a builder in detergent powders and acts as a chelating agent, inhibits soil redeposition during the wash and boosts overall detergency.
  • the result of the use of STPP was the development of high performance and low cost HDL.
  • environmental concerns over the use of phosphates, including STPP, in laundry detergents have resulted in phosphate use being banned in some countries and a negative public image in most developed markets. While alternatives to STPP, such as zeolite, sodium citrate, and sodium carbonate, are known, these show poor performance relative to phosphate built HDL.
  • phosphate-free detergent compositions comprising a surfactant system and a builder system are disclosed in US 2012/088710 , US 2011240063 , EP 0 896 998 and US 2002/128167 .
  • phosphate-free, structured HDL detergents that have comparable performance as the previously used phosphate-based formulations. Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to meet this need by providing an aqueous, phosphate-free, structured liquid detergent composition, in particular a HDL detergent that exhibits the desired performance.
  • this object can be met by using a composition that comprises a specific builder system, a surfactant system and water. It has been demonstrated that such a detergent shares a similar washing performance as the previously used STPP-containing compositions.
  • the present invention therefore relates to the use of an aqueous, structured liquid detergent composition comprising not more than 0.5 wt% of phosphate, 5.0 to 25.0 wt.-% of a surfactant system, 10.0 to 30.0 wt.-% of a builder system and 35.0 to 85.0 wt.-% water, wherein the builder system comprises
  • the invention relates to methods for cleaning textiles, wherein a washing liquor containing the liquid detergent composition of the present invention contacts the textile in at least one method step.
  • the invention also encompasses the use of a composition comprising
  • At least one relates to one or more, i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or more. If used in combination with a compound, the term does not relate to the absolute number of molecules but rather to the number of different types of said compound. "At least one inorganic builder” thus means that at least one type but that also 2 or more different inorganic builder types can be present.
  • viscosities referred to herein are viscosities measured at 20°C by a Brookfield LVT, Spindle No. 3 at 12 rpm.

  • the detergent compositions of the present invention can be used as detergents for textiles, carpets or natural fibers.
  • the detergents disclosed herein are heavy duty liquid (HDL) detergents.
  • the present invention is based on the inventors' surprising finding, that by use of the disclosed builder system structured liquid detergent compositions may be formed that have the desired washing performance.
  • Washing performance relates to the removal of stains, in particular stains sensitive to surfactants.
  • the removal can be evaluated by measuring a brightening of the stain either instrumentally or by visual inspection.
  • Structured liquids are widely used in the field of detergents. They can either be internally structured by one or more of the primary ingredients, such as the surfactants, and/or by using secondary additives, such as certain polymers and/or silicates. Structuring is used to endow the composition with properties such as a turbid appearance or certain flow properties. Such structured liquids may also contain suspended solids. While structured liquids provide more formulation flexibility compared to isotropic liquids, they often suffer from stability and viscosity problems. The presently disclosed formulations, however, provide for compositions that have the desired viscosities while at the same time showing good stability.
  • the liquid detergent compositions of the invention are internally structured in that the surfactant system leads to formation of multilayered vesicles.
  • Structured as used herein, therefore means that the compositions are preferably internally structured by formation of multilayered vesicles.
  • Multilayered vesicles preferably relates to essentially spherical vesicles that have a multilayered, typically double-layered, shell formed of molecules comprising hydrophobic moieties, with said hydrophobic moieties arranged such that they face each other while the more hydrophilic parts of the molecules face outwards.
