Definitions

  • An antimicrobial surfactant based composition An antimicrobial surfactant based composition
  • the present invention refers to the area of surfactants and relates to new composi tions with improved performance with regard to foaming, cleaning power and smell.
  • siap bar usually refers to a solid composition comprising surface-active salts of carboxylic acids, particularly sodium salts of saturated fatty acid having 6 up to 22 and preferably 12 to 18 carbon atoms.
  • Modern bar soaps are normally based on mixtures of beef tallow and coconut oil in a ratio of approximately 9:1. This fatty mixture is hydrolysed by addition of sodium hydroxide to the base soap to which other additives, including for exa m ple humectants, fillers and binders, superfatting agents, dyes and perfumes, etc., are added.
  • Toilet soaps normally contain approximately 80% of fatty acid salts, 10% of water and ad 100% auxiliaries and additives.

  • Gemini surfactants The so-called gemini surfactants can be considered as further surfactants. Generally speaking, such compounds are understood to mean compounds that have two hydrophilic groups and two hydrophobic groups per molecule. As a rule, these groups are separated from one another by a "spacer". The spacer is usually a hydrocarbon chain that is intended to be long enough such that the hydrophilic groups are a sufficient distance apart to be able to act independently of one another. These types of surfactants are generally characterized by an unusually low critical micelle concentration and the ability to strongly reduce the surface tension of water. In exceptional cases, however, not only dimeric but also trimeric surfactants are meant by the term gemini surfactants.
  • Suitable gemini surfactants are, for example, sulfated hydroxy mixed ethers according to German Patent Application DE 4321022 A1 or dimer alcohol bis- and trimer alcohol tris sulfates and ether sulfates according to International Patent Application WO 96/23768 Al. Blocked end group dimeric and trimeric mixed ethers according to German Patent Application DE 19513391 Al are especially characterized by their bifunctionality and multifunctionality.

  • X is a counter ion, preferably selected from the group of the halides, alkyl sulfates and alkyl carbonates.
  • Cationic surfactants, in which the nitrogen group is substituted with two long acyl groups and two short alk(en)yl groups are particularly preferred.
  • Esterquats A further class of cationic surfactants particularly useful as co-surfactants for the present invention is represented by the so-called esterquats.
  • Esterquats are generally understood to be quaternised fatty acid triethanolamine ester salts. These are known compounds which can be obtained by the relevant methods of preparative organic chemistry. Reference is made in this connection to International patent application WO 91/01295 Al, according to which triethanolamine is partly esterified with fatty acids in the presence of hypophosphorous acid, air is passed through the reaction mixture and the whole is then quaternised with dimethyl sulphate or ethylene oxide.
  • German patent DE 4308794 Cl describes a process for the production of solid esterquats in which the quaternisation of triethanolamine esters is carried out in the presence of suitable dispersants, preferably fatty alcohols.

  • the combination of such selected polymeric materials (e.g., PVNO and/or PVPVI) with such selected optical brighteners (e.g., Tinopal UNPA-GX, Tinopal 5BM-GX and/or Tinopal AMS-GX) provides significantly better dye transfer inhibition in aqueous wash solutions than does either of these two detergent composition components when used alone. Without being bound by theory, it is believed that such brighteners work this way because they have high affinity for fabrics in the wash solution and therefore deposit relatively quick on these fabrics.
  • the extent to which brighteners deposit on fabrics in the wash solution can be defined by a parameter called the "exhaustion coefficient".
  • the exhaustion coefficient is in general as the ratio of a) the brightener material deposited on fabric to b) the initial brightener concentration in the wash liquor. Brighteners with relatively high exhaustion coefficients are the most suitable for inhibiting dye transfer in the context of the present invention.
  • compositions can also comprise common thickeners and anti-deposition compositions as well as viscosity regulators such as polyacrylates, polycarboxylic acids, polysaccharides and their derivatives, polyurethanes, polyvinyl pyrrolidones, castor oil derivatives, polyamine derivatives such as quaternized and/or ethoxylated hexamethylenediamines as well as any mixtures thereof.
  • viscosity regulators such as polyacrylates, polycarboxylic acids, polysaccharides and their derivatives, polyurethanes, polyvinyl pyrrolidones, castor oil derivatives, polyamine derivatives such as quaternized and/or ethoxylated hexamethylenediamines as well as any mixtures thereof.
  • Preferred compositions have a viscosity below 10,000 mPa*s, measured with a Brookfield viscosimeter at a temperature of 20°C and a shear rate of 50 min 1 .
  • compositions are water-soluble inorganic salts such as bicarbonates, carbonates, amorphous silicates or mixtures of these; alkali carbonate and amorphous silicate are particularly used, principally sodium silicate with a molar ratio Na 2 0:Si0 2 of 1:1 to 1:4.5, preferably of 1:2 to 1:3.5.
  • Preferred compositions comprise alkaline salts, builders and/or cobuilders, preferably sodium carbonate, zeolite, crystalline, layered sodium silicates and/or trisodium citrate, in amounts of 0.5 to 70 wt. %, preferably 0.5 to 50 wt. %, particularly 0.5 to 30 wt. % anhydrous substance.
  • compositions can comprise further typical detergent and cleansing composition ingredients such as perfumes and/or colorants, wherein such colorants are preferred that leave no or negligible coloration on the fabrics being washed. Preferred amounts of the totality of the added colorants are below 1 wt. %, preferably below 0.1 wt. %, based on the composition.
  • the compositions can also comprise white pigments such as e.g., Ti0 2 .
  • Another object of the present invention refers to a method for making an antimicro bial soap bar comprising or consisting of the following steps:
  • component (a) providing a soap base as component (a), (b) providing at least one antimicrobial selected from the group consisting of 1,2- pentanediol, 1,2-hexanediol, 1,2-heptanediol, 1,2-octanediol, 1,2-nonanediol, 1,2- decanediol, 1,2-undecanediol, 1,2-dodecanediol, 2-benzylheptanol, 2-methyl 5- cyclohexylpentanol, benzyl alcohol, climbazole, dimethyl phenylpropanol, dimethyl phenylbutanol, farnesol, glyceryl laurate, lauryl alcohol, methylbenzyl alcohol, o-cymen- 5-ol, phenoxyethanol, phenylpropanol and mixtures thereof as component (b),
  • anionic and/or amphoteric surfactant comprising or consisting of the following steps:
  • (b) providing at least one antimicrobial selected from the group consisting of 1,2- pentanediol, 1,2-hexanediol, 1,2-heptanediol, 1,2-octanediol, 1,2-nonanediol, 1,2- decanediol, 1,2-undecanediol, 1,2-dodecanediol, 2-benzylheptanol, 2-methyl 5- cyclohexylpentanol, benzyl alcohol, climbazole, dimethyl phenylpropanol, dimethyl phenylbutanol, farnesol, glyceryl laurate, lauryl alcohol, methylbenzyl alcohol, o-cymen- 5-ol, phenoxyethanol, phenylpropanol and mixtures thereof as component (b),
  • the present invention is also directed to the use of at least one antimicrobial selected from the group consisting of 1,2-pentanediol, 1,2-hexanediol, 1,2-heptanediol, 1,2- octanediol, 1,2-nonanediol, 1,2-decanediol, 1,2-undecanediol, 1,2-dodecanediol, 2- benzylheptanol, 2-methyl 5-cyclohexylpentanol, benzyl alcohol, climbazole, dimethyl phe nylpropanol, dimethyl phenylbutanol, farnesol, glyceryl laurate, lauryl alcohol, methylbenzyl alcohol, o-cymen-5-ol, phenoxyethanol, phenylpropanol and mixtures thereof
  • a soap bar composition comprising a soap base and one or more antimicrobial additives were placed in a measuring cylinder and filled up 100 ml with water. The solution was subjected to stirring over 3 minutes at 20 rpm using an Ultra Turrax. Foam volume was determined after 0.5, 10, 15, 20, 30 and 40 minutes after mixing. The results are reported in
  • a 0.5 wt. -percent aqueous solution of a soap base and one or more antimicrobial additive was prepared. Subsequently, a defined of red lip stick was applied on the upper arm of a proband. After 5 minutes the lip stick was wiped twice with a cotton pad soaked with the test solutions. The results are shown in Figure 1. Left are shown the lip stick application prior to wiping, right after wiping. The four applications in the right belong from left to right:
