Description

The present invention relates to a solid, particulate composition comprising at least one water-soluble carrier material, at least one fragrance and at least one textile care compound, the carrier material being a water-containing salt (hydrate) whose water vapor partial pressure is in the range from 30 to 100 ° at a certain temperature C corresponds to the H ₂ O partial pressure of the saturated solution of this salt, so that the salt melts in its own crystal water at this temperature. The invention also relates to a method for producing the solid composition and a washing or cleaning agent which contains the solid composition. In addition, the present invention also relates to the use of such a washing or cleaning agent for cleaning textiles and corresponding methods for cleaning textiles using such a washing or cleaning agent.

When using detergents and cleaning agents, the consumer not only pursues the goal of washing the objects to be treated, but also wishes that the objects treated, e.g. Textiles smell pleasant after treatment, for example after washing. For this reason in particular, most commercially available detergents and cleaning agents contain fragrances.

Often, fragrances in the form of fragrance particles are either used as an integral component of a washing or cleaning agent, or are metered into the washing drum in a separate form at the beginning of a washing cycle. In this way, the consumer can control the scenting of the laundry to be washed through individual dosing. One form of supply that enables the separate dosage of fragrances is the fragrance lozenge.

The main component of such fragrant lozenges known in the art is typically a water-soluble or at least water-dispersible carrier polymer, such as polyethylene glycol (PEG), which serves as a vehicle for the integrated fragrances and which is more or less completely absorbed in the wash liquor during the course of the waxing process dissolves in order to release the contained fragrances and possibly other components into the wash liquor. For the production of the known scented lozenges, a melt is produced from the carrier polymer, which contains the other ingredients or these are then added, and the resulting melt is then fed to a shaping process, in the course of which it cools down, solidifies and takes on the desired shape.

The known products have the disadvantage that the polymer materials used, in particular PEG, have a delayed solubility, which can lead to residues on the laundry or in the washing machine, especially in the case of short wash cycles, low temperature or other unfavorable conditions.

Furthermore, the scented lozenges described in the prior art generally have no additional function, that is to say, they are generally used exclusively for scenting. From the consumer's point of view, however, a second or third function is desirable in addition to the scenting. A particularly relevant secondary function in connection with scented lozenges is textile care.

The object of the present invention was therefore to identify an alternative composition which shows a suitable processing range and at the same time has improved water solubility in the usual temperature ranges in which work is carried out and, in addition to the fragrance effect, also has a textile care effect.

1. a) 20 bis 95 Gew.-% mindestens eines wasserlöslichen Trägermaterials ausgewählt aus wasserhaltigen Salzen, deren Wasserdampf-Partialdruck bei einer bestimmten Temperatur im Bereich von 30 bis 100°C dem H₂O-Partialdruck der gesättigten Lösung dieses Salzes entspricht;
2. b) 0,1 bis 20 Gew.-% Duftstoff;
3. c) 0,1 bis 30 Gew.-% mindestens einer textilpflegenden Verbindung.

In a first aspect, the application is therefore directed to a solid, particulate composition comprising, based on the total weight of the composition,

1. a) 20 to 95% by weight of at least one water-soluble carrier material selected from water-containing salts, the water vapor partial pressure of which at a certain temperature in the range from 30 to 100 ° C. corresponds to the H ₂ O partial pressure of the saturated solution of this salt;
2. b) 0.1 to 20% by weight of fragrance;
3. c) 0.1 to 30% by weight of at least one textile care compound.

The solid, particulate composition as described herein is produced from a solution of the carrier material in the water / water of crystallization contained in the composition, the term "melt" also being used herein for such a solution in contrast to the established use, to describe the state in which the carrier material dissolves in its own crystal water through the splitting off of water and thus forms a liquid. The term “melt”, as used herein, thus denotes the liquid state of the composition which arises when the temperature is exceeded at which the carrier material splits off water of crystallization and then dissolves in the water contained in the composition. The corresponding dispersion, which contains the (solids) substances described herein, dispersed in the melt of the carrier material, is thus also the subject of the invention. If, in the following, reference is made to the solid, particulate composition, the corresponding melt / melt dispersion from which it can be obtained is also always included. Since these do not differ in terms of their composition, with the exception of their physical state, the terms are used synonymously herein.

The term “melt body” is used herein to describe the solid particles obtainable from the liquid composition by solidification / reshaping on cooling.

The main component of the particulate, solid composition as described herein is at least one water-soluble carrier material. In a preferred embodiment, the water-soluble carrier material is contained in an amount of 30 to 95% by weight, preferably 40 to 90% by weight, in particular 45 to 90% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition .

The at least one carrier material is characterized in that it is selected from hydrous salts whose water vapor partial pressure at a temperature in the range from 30 to 100 ° C. corresponds to the H ₂ O partial pressure of the saturated solution of this salt at the same temperature. This leads to the fact that the corresponding water-containing salt, also referred to herein as "hydrate", dissolves in its own crystal water when this temperature is reached or exceeded and thus changes from a solid to a liquid aggregate state. The carrier materials according to the invention preferably show this behavior at a temperature in the range from 40 to 90.degree. C., particularly preferably between 50 and 85.degree. C., even more preferably between 55 and 80.degree.

The above-described water-soluble carrier materials from the group of water-containing salts include in particular sodium acetate trihydrate (Na (CH ₃ COO) 3H ₂ O), Glauber's salt (Na ₂ SO ₄ · 10H ₂ O), trisodium phosphate dodecahydrate (Na ₃ PO ₄ · 12 H ₂ O) and strontium chloride hexahydrate (SrCl ₂ · 6 H ₂ O). The use of sodium acetate trihydrate (Na (CH ₃ COO) .3H ₂ O) is particularly preferred.

1. a) 20 bis 95 Gew.-%, bezogen auf das Gesamtgewicht der Zusammensetzung, Natriumacetat-Trihydrat;
2. b) 0,1 bis 20 Gew.-% Duftstoff;
3. c) 0,1 bis 30 Gew.-% mindestens einer textilpflegenden Verbindung.

In summary, a second aspect of this application results in a solid, particulate composition comprising

1. a) 20 to 95% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition, of sodium acetate trihydrate;
2. b) 0.1 to 20% by weight of fragrance;
3. c) 0.1 to 30% by weight of at least one textile care compound.

If the particulate composition contains sodium acetate trihydrate, such compositions are particularly advantageous with regard to their producibility, formulability and handling, which contain the sodium acetate trihydrate in an amount of 30 to 95% by weight, preferably 40 to 90% by weight, in particular from 45 to 90% by weight based on the total weight of the composition.

A particularly suitable carrier material is sodium acetate trihydrate (Na (CH ₃ COO) 3H ₂ O), since it dissolves in its own crystal water in the particularly preferred temperature range of 55 to 80 ° C, specifically at around 58 ° C. The sodium acetate trihydrate can be used directly as such, but alternatively the use of anhydrous sodium acetate in combination with free water is possible, the trihydrate then being formed in situ . In such embodiments, the water is used in an under- or over-stoichiometric amount based on the amount necessary to convert all of the sodium acetate into sodium acetate trihydrate, preferably in an amount of at least 60% by weight, preferably at least 70% by weight %, more preferably at least 80% by weight, most preferably 90% by weight, 100% by weight or more, of the amount theoretically required to convert all of the sodium acetate to sodium acetate trihydrate (Na (CH ₃ COO) 3H ₂ O). The overstoichiometric use of water is particularly preferred. In relation to the compositions according to the invention, this means that if (anhydrous) sodium acetate is used alone or in combination with a hydrate thereof, preferably the trihydrate, water is also used, the amount of water corresponding to at least the amount that would be stoichiometrically necessary, to ensure that at least 60% by weight of the total amount of sodium acetate and its hydrates, preferably at least 70% by weight, more preferably at least 80% by weight, even more preferably at least 90% by weight, most preferably at least 100% by weight, in the form of sodium acetate trihydrate. As already described above, it is particularly preferred that the amount of water exceeds the amount that would theoretically be necessary to convert all of the sodium acetate into the corresponding trihydrate. This means, for example, that a composition that contains 50% by weight of anhydrous sodium acetate and no hydrate thereof, at least 19.8% by weight of water (60% of 33% by weight that would theoretically be necessary to make all the sodium acetate to be converted into the trihydrate), contains.

1. a) 12 bis 57 Gew.-% Natriumacetat;
2. b) 0,1 bis 20 Gew.-% Duftstoff;
3. c) 0,1 bis 30 Gew.-% mindestens einer textilpflegenden Verbindung;
4. d) Wasser in einer Menge, welche ausreichend ist, um mindestens 60 Gew.-%, vorzugsweise mindestens 70 Gew.-%, noch bevorzugter mindestens 80 Gew.-%, am meisten bevorzugt mindestens 100 Gew.-% des Natriumacetats (a) in Natriumacetat-Trihydrat zu überführen.

In a further aspect, this application therefore has a solid, particulate composition for the opposite, comprising, based on the total weight of the composition

1. a) 12 to 57% by weight sodium acetate;
2. b) 0.1 to 20% by weight of fragrance;
3. c) 0.1 to 30% by weight of at least one textile care compound;
4. d) water in an amount sufficient to make up at least 60% by weight, preferably at least 70% by weight, more preferably at least 80% by weight, most preferably at least 100% by weight of the sodium acetate (a) to convert into sodium acetate trihydrate.

If the particulate composition is described on the basis of its sodium acetate content, those compositions which contain sodium acetate in an amount of 18 to 57% by weight, preferably 24 to 48% by weight, are particularly advantageous with regard to their producibility, configurability and handling. in particular from 27 to 45% by weight based on the total weight of the composition.

In addition to the carrier material a), the solid particulate compositions contain a fragrance b) as a second essential component. The proportion by weight of the fragrance in the total weight of the composition is preferably 1 to 15% by weight, more preferably 3 to 12% by weight.

A fragrance is a chemical substance that stimulates the sense of smell. In order to stimulate the sense of smell, the chemical substance should be at least partially dispersible in the air, i.e. the fragrance should be at least slightly volatile at 25 ° C. If the fragrance is now very volatile, the odor intensity then quickly subsides again. With a lower volatility, however, the odor impression is more lasting, i.e. it doesn't go away anytime soon. In one embodiment, the fragrance therefore has a melting point which is in the range from -100 ° C to 100 ° C, preferably from -80 ° C to 80 ° C, even more preferably from -20 ° C to 50 ° C, in particular from - 30 ° C to 20 ° C. In a further embodiment, the fragrance has a boiling point which is in the range from 25 ° C. to 400 ° C., preferably from 50 ° C. to 380 ° C., more preferably from 75 ° C. to 350 ° C., in particular from 100 ° C. to 330 ° C.

Overall, a chemical substance should not exceed a certain molecular mass in order to function as a fragrance, since if the molecular mass is too high, the required volatility can no longer be guaranteed. In one embodiment, the fragrance has a molecular weight of 40 to 700 g / mol, more preferably 60 to 400 g / mol.

Most people find the smell of a fragrance pleasant and often corresponds to the smell of, for example, flowers, fruits, spices, bark, resin, leaves, grasses, mosses and roots. For example, fragrances can also be used to mask unpleasant odors or to provide a non-odorous substance with a desired odor.

For the extension of the active substance effect, in particular the extended fragrance effect, it has proven advantageous to encapsulate the fragrance substance. In a corresponding embodiment, at least part of the fragrance is used in encapsulated form (fragrance capsules), in particular in microcapsules. However, the entire fragrance can also be used in encapsulated form. The microcapsules can be water-soluble and / or water-insoluble microcapsules. For example, melamine-urea-formaldehyde microcapsules, melamine-formaldehyde microcapsules, urea-formaldehyde microcapsules or starch microcapsules can be used. "Fragrance precursors" refers to compounds which only release the actual fragrance after chemical conversion / cleavage, typically through exposure to light or other environmental conditions such as pH, temperature, etc. Such compounds are often referred to as fragrance storage substances or "pro-fragrance".

For the later effect of the composition, it has proven to be advantageous if the fragrance is selected from the group of perfume oils and fragrance capsules. The use of a combination of perfume oil and fragrance capsules is very particularly preferred. Owing to their persistent, uniform fragrance effect, those compositions are particularly preferred in which the weight ratio of perfume oil to fragrance capsules is 30: 1 to 1:20, preferably 20: 1 to 1:15 and in particular 15: 1 to 1:10.

The third essential component of the solid particulate composition contains a textile care compound. The textile care compound is different from the previously described water-soluble carrier material and the previously described fragrance. The proportion by weight of the textile care compound in the total weight of the composition is preferably 0.2 to 20% by weight and in particular 0.5 to 15% by weight.

The group of textile care compounds includes textile softening compounds and anti-crease compounds.

• Silikone, vorzugsweise Aminosilikone;
• Schichtsilikate, vorzugsweise Bentonite;
• kationischen Polymere;
• kationische Tenside;
• amphotere Tenside;
• Fettstoffe.

The group of textile care compounds preferably includes in particular

• Silicones, preferably aminosilicones;
• Sheet silicates, preferably bentonites;
• cationic polymers;
• cationic surfactants;
• amphoteric surfactants;
• Fatty substances.

It is particularly preferred if the textile care compound is selected from polysiloxanes, textile-softening clays, cationic polymers and mixtures thereof.

The use of polysiloxanes and / or cationic polymers as textile care compounds in the composition is advantageous because they not only have a softening effect, but also enhance the perfume impression on the laundry.

The use of softening clays as a textile care compound in the composition is advantageous because they also have a water-softening effect and thus, for example, can prevent limescale deposits on the laundry. In order to achieve optimal performance, it may be preferred that the composition contains a combination of at least two textile care compounds.

A polysiloxane that can preferably be used has the structural unit a) - (R ¹ ) ₂ Si-O) _n -, where R ¹ = independently of one another C ₁ -C ₃₀ -alkyl, preferably C ₁ -C ₄ -alkyl, in particular methyl or ethyl and n = 1 to 5000, preferably 10 to 2500, in particular 100 to 1500.

In a further preferred embodiment, the textile care compound is selected from the group of cationic surfactants, in particular from the group of esterquats. The term “esterquat” as used herein relates to esters of quaternary ammonium polyols, in particular quaternary ammonium diols and / or triols, such as, for example, triethanolmethylammonium or diethanoldimethylammonium, with fatty acids.

In general, the use of esterquats in cosmetic products, detergents and aftertreatment agents, in particular in fabric softeners, is known in the prior art. There they help to improve the soft hand, reduce the static charge on the textile fabrics and reduce the drying time.

The esterquats used according to the invention are ideally liquid to pasty at temperatures around 20 ° C.

In various embodiments, the composition contains at least one ester quat of the formula N ⁺ (R ¹ ) _4-n ((CH ₂ ) _m -OC (O) -R ² ) _n X ^- , where each R ^{1 is} independently a substituted or unsubstituted, linear or branched alkyl or alkenyl, preferably an unsubstituted or hydroxy-substituted alkyl having 1 to 10 carbon atoms; each R ^{2 is} a linear or branched, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl or alkenyl or a substituted or unsubstituted (hetero) aryl having up to 26 carbon atoms, preferably linear unsubstituted C10-26 alkyl; n is 1, 2, 3 or 4, preferably 1, 2 or 3; m is an integer from 1 to 20, preferably 1 to 4; and X ^{- is} any anion.

In a particularly preferred embodiment, the ester quat used is _an ester quat of the formula N ⁺ (R ¹ ) _4-n ((CH ₂ ) _m -OC (O) -R ² ) _n X ^- , where n = 2 and m = 2 the first R ¹ is selected is selected from methyl and ethyl, preferably methyl, and the second ^R1 is selected from methyl and 2-hydroxyethyl, preferably 2-hydroxyethyl, and each R ² is linear, unsubstituted C ₁₂ - ₁₈ alkyl. Such esterquats are bis (acyloxyethyl) hydroxyethylmethylammonium compounds. The counterion is preferably methosulfate. Such esterquats are commercially available, for example, under the trade name Dehyquart® AU-57 (BASF SE, DE).

Particularly suitable as a textile care compound from the group of amphoteric surfactants are the alkylamidopropyl betaines, preferably linear C8 or C10 alkylamidopropyl betaines, ie caprylamidopropyl betaine (N- (3-octanoyl) aminopropyl) -N-carboxymethyl-N, N-dimethyl-1-propanaminium ) or capramidopropyl betaine (N- (3-decanoyl) aminopropyl) -N-carboxymethyl-N, N-dimethyl-1-propanaminium), or, very particularly preferably, mixtures of linear C8 and C10 alkyl amidopropyl betaines. Such a betaine mixture is commercially available, for example, as Tegotens® B 810 from Evonik Industries.

Particularly preferred solid, particulate compositions contain drawing aids from a further constituent, in particular cellulose derivatives or cationically modified guar.

In addition to the essential components described above, the solid particulate composition can contain further optional components.

For example, it has proven advantageous for the producibility of the particulate, solid composition if it further comprises at least one rheology modifier, preferably a solid rheology modifier.

The preferably solid rheology modifier is preferably used in such a manner and amount that a melt obtained by heating the composition to 70 ° C. has a flow limit above 1 Pa, preferably above 5 Pa and in particular above 10 Pa.

The flow limit is measured with a rotational rheometer (AR G2 from TA Instruments or a "Kinexus" from Malvern), using a plate-plate measuring system with a diameter of 40 mm and a plate spacing of 1.1 mm. The yield point is determined in a step-flow procedure in which the shear stress is quasi-static, i.e. while waiting for the equilibrium deformation or steady flow is increased from the smallest possible value to a value above the flow limit. The deformation is plotted against the shear stress in a logarithmic diagram. If there is a flow limit, the curves obtained in this way show a characteristic kink. An exclusively elastic deformation takes place below the kink. The slope of the curve in the logarithmic representation is ideally one. Above the bend, the slope of the curve increases sharply and steady flow occurs. The shear stress value of the kink corresponds to the yield point. If the kink is not quite sharp, the intersection of the tangents of the two curve sections can be used to determine the yield point. In the case of liquids that do not have a flow limit, the graph described above is usually curved to the right.

Inorganic as well as organic substances with corresponding properties influencing the rheology of the molten composition can be used as rheology modifiers. These substances can contain solid (at 20 ° C. and 1 bar) or liquid ingredients, the use of solid rheology modifiers being preferred.

The proportion by weight of the inorganic rheology modifier in the total weight of the composition can be 0.1 to 25% by weight, but is preferably 0.5 to 3% by weight, more preferably 1 to 2.5% by weight and in particular 1.2 to 2.0% by weight.

The group of inorganic rheology modifiers includes, for example, pyrogenic silica, which is particularly preferred because of its advantageous technical effect.

The silicas used preferably have a BET surface area of more than 50 m ² / g, preferably more than 100 m ² / g, more preferably 150 to 250 m ² / g, in particular 175 to 225 m ² / g.

Suitable silicas are commercially available from Evonik under the trade names Aerosil® and Sipernat®. Aerosil® 200 is particularly preferred.

The proportion by weight of the organic rheology modifier in the total weight of the composition can be 0.1 to 25% by weight, but is preferably 0.5 to 3% by weight, more preferably 1 to 2.5% by weight and in particular 1.2 to 2.0% by weight.

In the case of organic rheology modifiers, the use of cellulose, in particular microfibrillated cellulose (MFC, nanocellulose), is preferred. MFCs such as are commercially available, for example, as Exilva (Borregaard) or Avicel® (FMC) are particularly suitable as cellulose.

Another group of particularly preferred organic rheology modifiers is the heteroglycans. Heteroglycans are polysaccharides that are made up of more than one type of monomeric simple sugar.

Suitable rheology modifiers are heteroglycans of different origin, in particular heteroglycans of bacterial origin, heteroglycans of algic origin and heteroglycans of vegetable origin. These heteroglycans can be used individually or in combination.

Because of their availability and technical action, rheology modifiers from the group of heteroglycans of bacterial origin are particularly preferred. The use of heteroglycans which are obtained by bacterial fermentation is particularly preferred.

Heteroglycans from the group of exopolysaccharides in particular have proven effective as rheology modifiers.

Preferred rheology modifiers from the group of heteroglycans are furthermore functionalized by at least one non-saccharidic group, preferably by at least one non-saccharidic group selected from acetate, pyruvate, phosphate and succinate.

The addition of bitter substances primarily serves to avoid oral ingestion of the tablets containing active substances.

Preferred moldings contain at least one bitter substance in an amount of 0.0001 to 0.05% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition. Quantities from 0.0005 to 0.02% by weight are particularly preferred. According to the present invention, those bitter substances are particularly preferred which are soluble in water at 20 ° C. to the extent of at least 5 g / l. With regard to an undesirable interaction with the fragrance components also contained in the composition, in particular a change in the fragrance note perceived by the consumer, the ionic bitter substances have proven to be superior to the non-ionic, ionic bitter substances, consisting of organic cation (s) and organic (n) Anion (s) are consequently preferred for the composition according to the invention.

In various embodiments, the at least one bitter substance is therefore an ionogenic bitter substance.

In the context of the present invention, quaternary ammonium compounds which contain an aromatic group both in the cation and in the anion are eminently suitable. In various embodiments, the at least one bitter substance is therefore a quaternary ammonium compound.

A suitable quaternary ammonium compound is, for example, without limitation, commercially available e.g. Benzyldiethyl ((2,6-xylylcarbamoyl) methyl) ammonium benzoate available under the trademarks Bitrex® and Indige-stin®. This compound is also known as Denatonium Benzoate. In various embodiments, the at least one bitter substance is benzyl diethyl ((2,6-xylylcarbamoyl) methyl) ammonium benzoate (Bitrex®). If Bitrex® is used, proportions by weight of 0.0001 to 0.05% by weight are preferred. The information is based on the active ingredient content and the total weight.

The composition also contains at least one buffer system. The buffer system is preferably solid, ie it is a solid (mixture) under standard conditions. The term "buffer capacity" refers to the amount of hydrogen chloride (HCl) in mg that is necessary to maintain the pH value of a solution of 1 g of the solid composition in 50 g of deionized water under standard conditions (20 ° C, 1013 mbar) lower to below 6.75. The buffer systems used according to the invention are preferably characterized in that they have a pKa value of at least 5.75, preferably at least 6.25, more preferably at least 6.75, and preferably not more than 12, more preferably less than 11.5, more preferably 11 or less, most preferably 10.5 or less. The buffer capacity of the resulting solution is preferably at least 2 mg HCl / g composition, preferably at least 3 mg HCl / g composition, more preferably at least 4 mg HCl / g composition. Suitable buffer substances are, for example, without restriction, sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium carbonate, disodium hydrogen phosphate, sodium glutamate, sodium aspartate, tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane (TRIS) and other organic and inorganic buffer substances known in the art that meet the above criteria, as well as mixtures of the aforementioned. TRIS is particularly preferred.

The buffer substances are used in the compositions according to the invention, for example, in amounts of 0.1 to 10% by weight, preferably 0.5 to 7.5% by weight, more preferably 1 to 5% by weight, each based on the total weight of the composition used and are preferably selected from sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium carbonate, disodium hydrogen phosphate, sodium glutamate, sodium aspartate, tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane (TRIS) and combinations thereof, preferably tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane.

The composition preferably does not contain a polyethylene glycol (PEG) solid at room temperature (25 ° C) in the form of a coating, more preferably the composition as a whole does not contain PEG solid at room temperature (25 ° C), i. the content of PEG which is solid at room temperature (25 °) is less than 1% by weight based on the composition.

As stated at the outset, the compositions according to the invention are distinguished from the known compositions of the prior art by an improved solubility profile and an improved fragrance effect. At the same time, however, depending on the exact manufacturing and / or storage conditions, these compositions tend to have unaesthetic "salt efflorescence" on their surface. These changes in the particle surface particularly affect the appearance of dye-containing compositions. Another task was therefore to prevent or at least alleviate this efflorescence through formulation measures.

Surprisingly, it has been shown that the previously described unaesthetic changes to the surface of the compositions can be prevented by adding at least one water-miscible organic solvent. For this reason, the compositions according to the invention contain at least one water-miscible organic solvent as a further optional component.

The water-miscible organic solvents are preferably not very volatile and odorless. Suitable water-miscible organic solvents are, for example, monohydric and polyhydric alcohols, alkyl ethers, di- or low molecular weight polyalkylene ethers which are liquid at room temperature. The solvents are preferably selected from ethanol, n-propanol, i-propanol, butanols, glycol, propanediol, butanediol, methylpropanediol, diglycol, butyl diglycol, hexylene glycol, Ethylene glycol methyl ether, ethylene glycol ethyl ether, Ethylenglykolpropylether, ethylene glycol mono-n-butyl ether, diethylene glycol methyl ether, diethylene glycol ethyl ether, propylene glycol methyl ether, propylene glycol ethyl ether, propylene glycol propyl ether, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol monoethyl ether, methoxytriglycol, ethoxytriglycol, Butoxytriglykol, 1-butoxyethoxy-2-propanol, 3-methyl-3-methoxybutanol, propylene glycol t-butyl ether, di-n-octyl ether (1,2-propanediol) and mixtures of these solvents.

Dipropylene glycol, 1,2-propylene glycol and glycerine are particularly preferred, since these are particularly readily miscible with water and do not otherwise react with the other constituents of the composition. Dipropylene glycol is particularly preferred.

The proportion by weight of the water-miscible organic solvent in the total weight of the composition is preferably 0.1 to 20% by weight, more preferably 0.1 to 10% by weight, particularly preferably 0.5 to 8% by weight and in particular 1 to 6% by weight .-%.

As already described above, the composition can possibly also contain free water. The term "free water", as used herein, denotes water which is not bound as crystal water in any of the salts contained in the composition.

The solid, particulate composition can be in any form. For reasons of manufacturability, configurability, handling and metering, however, spherical, figurative, flake, cuboid, cylinder, cone, spherical cap or lens, hemispherical, disc or needle-shaped particles are preferred. Exemplary particles can have a gummy bear-like, figural design. Hemispherical particles are particularly preferred because of their packaging properties and their performance profile.

It is also preferred that the composition consists of at least 20% by weight, preferably at least 40% by weight, particularly preferably at least 60% by weight and particularly preferably at least 80% by weight, of particles which are present in each any spatial direction have a spatial extent between 0.5 to 10 mm, in particular 0.8 to 7 mm and particularly preferably 1 to 5 mm.

It is also preferred if the composition consists of at least 20% by weight, preferably at least 40% by weight, particularly preferably at least 60% by weight and particularly preferably at least 80% by weight, of particles in which the Ratio of the longest particle diameter determined in any spatial direction to the shortest in one any direction in space between 3: 1 and 1: 1, preferably between 2.5: 1 and 1.2: 1 and in particular between 2.2: 1 and 1.4: 1.

The weight of the solid particles of the composition can also vary within wide limits. With regard to the producibility and dosing properties, however, compositions have proven to be advantageous which contain at least 20% by weight, preferably at least 40% by weight, particularly preferably at least 60% by weight and particularly preferably at least 80% by weight. -% consists of particles which have a particle weight between 2 and 150 mg, preferably between 8 and 120 mg and in particular between 20 and 100 mg.

The solid particulate composition can be marketed or used alone or in combination with a further preparation. In a preferred embodiment, the solid particulate composition is a component of a washing or cleaning agent.

As mentioned at the beginning, the composition is primarily suitable for scenting textiles. The use of the solid composition or of a washing or cleaning agent which contains this composition as a textile care agent for scenting textile fabrics is therefore a further aspect of this application.

Due to the addition of a textile care compound, the solid, particulate composition can also be used as a textile care agent for rinsing textile fabrics or for anti-crease finishing of textile fabrics.

A composition as described herein can, for example, be used in the wash cycle of a laundry cleaning process and thus transport the perfume to the laundry right at the start of the washing process. Furthermore, the composition is easier and easier to handle than liquid compositions, since no drops remain on the edge of the bottle which, when the bottle is subsequently stored, lead to edges on the substrate or to unsightly deposits in the area of the closure. The same is true in the event that some of the composition is accidentally spilled during dosing. The spilled amount can also be cleaned up more easily and cleanly. A method for treating textiles, in the course of which a composition according to the invention or a washing or cleaning agent comprising such a composition is metered into the washing liquor of a textile washing machine, is a further subject of this application.

The composition of some preferred compositions can be found in the following tables (data in% by weight based on the total weight of the agent unless otherwise stated).

The fusible bodies according to the invention are coated in various embodiments of the invention. Tablet coatings known from the pharmaceutical literature, for example, are suitable as coating agents. The lozenges can also be waxed, i.e. coated with a wax or powdered with a powdery material, for example a release agent, to protect against caking (agglomeration). It is preferred that the coating does not consist of PEG or that it comprises a significant amount (> 10% by weight based on the coating).

A method for producing such fused bodies can comprise the following steps:

2. b) adding the fragrance and the textile care compound to the melt;
3. c) Mixing the melt, the fragrance and the textile care compound; and

In a preferred embodiment, the melt dispersion produced in step a) is discharged from the first container by means of a pipeline and fed to the drop former. It is also preferred that the fragrance is introduced continuously into the outlet stream of the first container from a corresponding storage container by means of a further pipeline. A liquid preparation of the fragrance, for example in the form of a solution, is particularly suitable for this. The temperature of the fragrance or the liquid preparation of the fragrance is preferably at least 10 ° C., preferably at least 20 ° C. and in particular at least 30 ° C. below the temperature of the melt dispersion forming the outlet flow before it is introduced into the outlet stream of the first container.

It is further preferred to mix the resulting mixture in the pipeline after the introduction of the fragrance into the melt dispersion. Mixing is preferably carried out by means of a static mixer which is located in the pipeline in the direction of flow of the melt dispersion downstream of the entry point of the fragrance and before the entry point of the mixture into the drop former.

The length of the static mixer installed in the pipeline in the flow direction of the melt dispersion is preferably at least 10 times, preferably at least 20 times and in particular at least 50 times the diameter of the pipeline. To ensure optimal mixing of melt dispersion and fragrance, the distance between the end of the static mixer and the entry point of the pipeline into the drop former is less than 500 times, preferably less than 200 times and in particular less than 100 times the diameter of the pipeline. The inner diameter of the pipeline is referred to as the diameter of the pipeline, regardless of the wall thickness.

The mixture of melt dispersion and fragrance enters the drop former with a rotating, perforated outer drum from the pipeline. The section of the pipeline which is located inside the drum of the drop former is referred to below as the feed channel to distinguish it from the previous pipeline. The feed channel extends preferably over at least 80%, particularly preferably over at least 90% and in particular over 100% of the length of the drum of the drop former.

The mixture introduced into the feed channel exits the feed channel, preferably through bores located on the underside of the feed channel, from the feed channel onto a distributor or nozzle bar, which in turn rests against the inside of the rotating, perforated outer drum. The mixture runs through the distributor or nozzle bar and is then transferred from the holes in the rotating outer drum onto a steel belt located below these holes applied. The distance between the outside of the rotating, perforated outer drum and the surface of the steel belt is preferably between 5 and 20 mm.

To further improve the mixing of melt dispersion and fragrance and to prevent or minimize sedimentation, another mixer can be arranged in the feed channel. This is preferably a dynamic mixer, for example a helix that is rotatably arranged within the feed channel.

In order to minimize the temperature load on the fragrance, the dwell time of the mixture of melt dispersion and fragrance in the pipeline until it exits the rotating, perforated outer drum of the drop former is preferably less than 20 seconds, particularly preferably less than 10 seconds and in particular between 0.5 and 5 Seconds.

The viscosity (Texas Instruments AR-G2 rheometer; plate / plate, 4 cm diameter, 1100 μm gap; shear rate 10 / 1sec) of the mixture when it emerges from the rotating, perforated outer drum is preferably between 1000 and 10000 mPas.

The drops of the mixture discharged from the drop former are solidified into solid melt bodies on the steel belt. The time between the dropping of the mixture on the steel strip and the complete solidification of the mixture is preferably between 5 and 60 seconds, particularly preferably between 10 and 50 seconds and in particular between 20 and 40 seconds.

The solidification of the mixture is preferably supported and accelerated by cooling. The drops applied to the steel strip can be cooled directly or indirectly. Cooling by means of cold air, for example, can be used as direct cooling. However, indirect cooling of the droplets by cooling the underside of the steel strip using cold water is preferred.
