Description

SELF-CONTAINING SANITARY AGENTS

The invention relates to a composition which is suitable for use as a sanitary agent with a coupling agent and having a solvent having a conductivity of at least 50 μ8 / ηιη, the use of the composition, a system comprising the composition in a toilet bowl and a method for Production of the system.

Self-adhesive sanitary means are known from the prior art. These self-adhesive sanitary means are suitably self-contained, i. without further aids to adhere to surfaces. In particular, from the prior art toilet blocks, which are a self-adhesive

Have known composition. Such toilet blocks can be mounted without cups on the wall of the toilet bowl and adhere there automatically even after a plurality of Abspülvorgängen. For example, EP 1086199B1 describes a self-adhesive sanitary composition which is self-adhesive to surfaces of

Items that are commonly used in the sanitary sector, such as toilet bowls, sticks and is rinsed off the toilet surface only after several rinses. However, it has been observed that after rinsing off the self-adhesive agent residues on the

Surface of the toilet bowl left behind.

It has been found that conventional self-adhesive compositions only one

have insufficient Abspülverhalten. The document EP 1325103 B1 describes a composition which seeks to solve this problem by using glycerol. In particular, the document describes such compositions which are suitable for adhering to a surface of a sanitary article without using a basket.

In particular, it has been found that in an adherent sanitary composition consisting of primer and water, a smooth surface of the applied agent independent of the rinse frequency can be achieved and the formation of a white encrusted surface of sparingly soluble residues can be avoided if the agent additionally either at least one the group glycerol, 1, 3-dihydroxypropane, 1, 3 or 1, 4-dihydroxybutane, 1, 3-dihydroxyisobutane, pentaerythritol selected compound or between 1 and 20 wt.%, Preferably between 5 and 15 wt.% And particularly preferably between 7 and 13 wt.% Of an aliphatic di-, oligo- or polyhydroxy compound or their ethers.

However, those described above are well known in the art

Compositions disadvantageous in that they necessarily require the use of glycerol or other polyhydroxy compound. Furthermore, these known from the prior art compositions, the disadvantage that they are relatively slow solidify or cure using additional cooling. The resulting additional energy expenditure causes additional costs and represents an environmental burden in the large-scale production of sanitary funds.

On this basis, it was an object of the present invention, a sanitary agent

to provide, on the one hand has a pleasing appearance and on the other hand is simple in composition and both economically and ecologically advantageous to produce even under industrial conditions.

One aspect of the invention relates to a composition suitable for use as a sanitary agent, the composition comprising (a) at least one coupling agent and (b) at least one solvent, the solvent having a conductivity of at least 50 μβ / ηη.

In particular, the total amount of solvent in the composition has one

Furthermore, the composition has a conductivity of at least 50 μβ / ηη, more preferably of at least 100 μβ / ηη, and more preferably of at least 200 μβ / ηη. The conductivity of the solvent or of the entire solvent essentially also corresponds to the conductivity of the composition, since it is the solvent which forms the liquid phase of the gel and thus has a conductivity in the sense of the invention.

The prior art describes a variety of solvents. An important example is water. Water may comprise electrolytes or, e.g. after distillation followed by condensation, be substantially free of electrolytes. Generally speaking, a solvent, e.g. Water, electrolytes include or be electrolyte-free. However, this general statement does not affect that the solvent according to the invention (and thus also the total amount of solvent) must contain electrolytes. For a person skilled in the art, the fact that a minimum amount of electrolyte must be present results from the fact that a minimum value for the conductivity is predetermined. The more general term solvent is specified according to the invention that it must contain electrolytes to the specified

As the number of alkoxy groups decreases, the coupling agent becomes more lipophilic. This leaves In particular, the solubility of hydrophilic substances, such as fragrances or dyes regulate.

As the degree of alkoxylation increases, the coupling agent becomes more hydrophilic, which in particular can affect the formation of a network and the ability to form a visually appealing gel, and moreover can have an influence on the flushing behavior of the sanitary agent.

Likewise, the type and in particular the length of the hydrophobic radical has an effect on the lipophilicity of the adhesion promoter, with longer alkyl radicals in particular increasing the hydrophobicity of the adhesion promoter. Overall, by a suitable choice of the hydrophobic radical, in particular a linear, d. H. unbranched, alkyl radical on the one hand, in coordination with the degree of alkoxylation, d.

The type and amount of the solvent depends inter alia on the hydrophilicity of the adhesion promoter used and can be varied accordingly. To be with the

Adhesion promoter molecules to provide the desired number of splices, the solvent should be at least 20 wt.%, Preferably between 35 and 65 wt.% Contained in the agent.

According to further embodiments, the solvent has a conductivity of at least 800 μβ / ηη or in particular of at least 1000 μβ / ηη or of at least 1500 μβ / ηη.

In the context of the present invention, the conductivity is preferably the electrolytic conductivity of the solvent or the electrical conductivity of the solvent in the sense of an electrolyte solution.

Preferably, the agent comprises as preservatives one or more of the group containing isothiazolinone, phenoxyethanol, methylisothiazolinone and benzisothiazolinone (BIT). Preferably, and depending on the type of preservative, it is contained in the agent in amounts of from 0.0001 to 1 wt%.

The agent according to the invention preferably has an ointment-like, pasty and / or creamy consistency.

In the context of the present invention, "gel" is preferably understood to mean a disperse system which consists of at least two components, the solid component forming a sponge-like, three-dimensional network whose pores are at least partially filled by the solvent.

The sanitary means are preferably designed as gels. Such gels preferably have a different microstructure or nanostructure than conventional sanitary agents, which not only leads to a special visual appearance due to the transparency of the gel in the case of toilet blocks, but also enables a uniform release of additives such as dyes and in particular fragrance compositions.

However, it has been found that self-adhesive compositions which are formed as gel have only an insufficient rinsing behavior. Another aspect of the invention relates to the use of the sanitary agent, wherein the agent is adhered to a sanitary article.

Preferably, the use comprises the steps of: (a) providing the sanitary agent; and (b) adhering the sanitary agent to a surface of a sanitary article.

The adhesion of the sanitary agent according to this use preferably takes place such that it adheres directly to the surface of the sanitary object. In other words, the sanitary agent is self-contained on the surface of the sanitary object.

In a preferred embodiment, the attachment of the sanitary agent is carried out by means of an applicator. For this purpose, for example, syringes in the broadest sense, which contain the sanitary means and from which the sanitary means can be pushed out to place this on the surface of the sanitary object.

The attained adhesion to the sanitary article, preferably even when attached to a vertical surface, is such that the agent does not detach at once even under the additional force of flushing water streams.

The sanitary agent is preferably rinsed off only after a large number of rinsing operations. The number of rinses depends on the composition of the respective sanitary agent and also on the applied amount and the shape of the sanitary agent.

The sanitary means can also be attached to several places of the sanitary object at the same time. For example, the agent can be applied both on the right and on the left side of a toilet bowl. This allows a more uniform cleaning effect than the attachment only on one side.

According to another embodiment, the sanitary agent may be adhered to a sanitary article at various locations in different compositions. This allows, for example, that e.g. two different perfuming agents can be used at a local separation to a common fragrance of the toilet.

In addition, the inventors have found that the sanitary means described here can also be advantageously provided in a toilet bowl. Another aspect relates to a system comprising the sanitary means according to the invention and a toilet bowl with at least one chamber, wherein the sanitary means is present in the chamber of the toilet bowl. Another aspect of the invention relates to the preparation of the system of the invention comprising the steps of (a) rendering the sanitary composition fluidizable by heating, (b) introducing the agent into the basket, and (c) cooling the composition, whereby the composition cures.

In a preferred embodiment, the chamber shell of the toilet bowl is completely closed on at least one side and the composition is adhered to the completely closed side of the chamber envelope.

The sanitary agent is preferably designed as a gel. Such a composition in a toilet bowl in the form of a gel is an optically attractive, transparent product having a favorable release characteristic with respect to coloring and in particular fragrances which may be contained in the composition as additives.

Due to the self-adhesive properties of the gel due to the presence of the adhesion promoter this adheres to the surface of the toilet bowl. This has the advantage that the gel contained in the basket is not dissolved from the outside to the inside as in conventional toilet stones, but has a dissolving behavior in that the amounts of gel that adhere directly to the chamber wall of the toilet bowl are rinsed off last. This results in particular in an improved release profile and a visually appealing

Appearance over the entire life of the toilet block. As the areas of the gel which are recognizable to the user from outside, for example when using a transparent toilet bowl, do not detach themselves until the very end of their lifetime, the original one becomes

Change the appearance of the WC stone until it is completely exhausted. However, this makes special demands on the Abspülverhalten of the gel of the

Surface of the chamber in which the gel is contained in the toilet bowl.

Inadequate flushing behavior from the inner chamber surface of the toilet bowl results in unsightly, unevenly distributed gel residues on the surface of the chamber when using transparent toilet bowls. Toilet baskets generally have a strongly curved or curved inner chamber surface (for example in the case of spherically formed toilet baskets). Compared to the relatively smooth and non-curved surfaces of toilet bowls to which sanitary means can be attached directly without toilet bowls, when using toilet bowls with a self-adhesive gel a more pronounced residue formation can be observed. An improvement of the rinsing behavior is thus necessary in particular when used with a toilet bowl. Preferably, the chamber envelope is designed as a sphere, ie spherically, wherein the chamber envelope consists of one piece or two pieces of a first hemisphere and a second hemisphere, which respectively represent a first side of the chamber envelope and a second side of the chamber envelope. The first page may be referred to as the front, ie the accessible and visible in the state of use and the toilet bowl wall facing away, while the second side may be referred to as the back, ie the not immediately accessible in the state of use or visible and the toilet bowl wall and running along it Rinse water facing side. The above classification of the chamber envelope in two sides can also be correspondingly transferred to further chamber envelope geometries, eg rectangular chamber envelope geometries.

The front of the chamber casing preferably has no opening. This prevents, on the one hand, that a child or a pet may come into contact with an active substance present in the chamber. Furthermore, the fact that the first side of the chamber casing has no opening, the active substance can be filled in the manufacturing process through an opening of the second side in the basket. In WC baskets with one or more openings on the first side, the active substance would not remain in the basket during filling but run through it. Advantageously, a toilet bowl according to the described embodiment can be filled with an active substance, wherein the substance solidifies after filling. Thus, it is not necessary for the active substance to be preformed into the desired geometry (e.g., a sphere) and then introduced into the chamber. Rather, the shaping is achieved in that the active substance is filled into the chamber and the chamber geometry acts in the solidification of the active substance as a template. In particular, the described embodiment allows pasty compositions, e.g. Gels, as active substances, since such pasty compositions, such as gels, because of their consistency and "stickiness" difficult preformed and can be introduced in their final form in the chamber of the basket.

In the case of the compositions according to the invention, it was possible to observe that they solidify or harden rapidly without the use of additional cooling. The resulting reduced energy consumption causes less costs and enables a more ecological and efficient large-scale industrial production of sanitary funds.

Another aspect of the invention relates to the use of the system comprising the steps of: (a) providing the system comprising the sanitary means according to the invention and a toilet bowl with at least one chamber, the sanitary means being in the chamber of the toilet bowl (b) Attaching the system to a sanitary object. Comparative Examples:

There was provided a composition according to the invention E1 and a comparative composition C1. All values are given in weight percent based on the total amount of the composition.

While demineralized water was used in Comparative Composition C1, with the water having almost no conductivity, the ion content in the

Compositions of the invention adjusted so that increased conductivities resulted.

The comparative composition C1 contained glycerol, while in the inventive compositions E1, E2, and E3 was completely dispensed glycerol. In order to provide meaningful compositions of C1 to E1, E2, and E3, compared to C1

Comparable, the amount of glycerol were divided proportionally to the other components of the compositions (fatty alcohol ethoxylate and water), i. E. instead of the 10% by weight of additional glycerol, on the one hand, the amount of water and, on the other hand, the amount of fatty alcohol ethoxylate was increased proportionately.

"Cremophor A25" is a fatty alcohol ethoxylate with C16 and C18 alkyl groups and 25 ethoxy units Empilan is a fatty alcohol ethoxylate with C9 to C12 alkyl groups and 8 ethoxy units

The compositions C1 and E1, E2, and E3 were tested for their adhesion, their ability to cure on cooling, their temperature stability and their Abspülverhalten.

Compared to a composition containing only one adhesion promoter without further, the

Rinse-modifying additives (see, for example, compositions known from EP 1 086 199 B1), the formation of a white encrusted surface of sparingly soluble residues can be known to be avoided if the agent comprises glycerol. A good

Rinsing behavior was thus also observed in the case of comparative composition C1. Surprisingly, the compositions according to the invention E1, E2 and E3 showed a similar advantageous rinsing behavior as the composition C1. However, this can also be achieved without the use of glycerine. The inventors attribute this to the electrolyte-containing solvent (here water), suggesting that the ions contained have an advantageous effect on network formation within the gel.

In the case of the compositions E1, E2, and E3 according to the invention, it was also possible to observe that they hardened or hardened more rapidly. On an additional cooling to achieve curing of the gel can be dispensed with. The resulting reduced energy consumption causes less costs and enables a more ecological and efficient large-scale industrial production of sanitary funds.
