(54) SPRAY-DRED DETERGENT COMPONENTS
(71) We, UNILEVER LIMITED, a British company, of Unilever House, Blackfriars,
London EC4, England, do hereby declare the invention for which we pray that a patent may be granted to us and the method by which it is to be performed, to be particularly described in and by the following statement:
This invention relates to a material prepared by spray-drying which is suitable for use as a filler in detergent compositions and also as an absorbent for nonionic surfactants.
It is now generally accepted in the detergents industry that the formulation of fabric washing powders so that the major detergentactive substance is a nonionic surfactant offers advantages, especially in the removal of oily soils from modem fabrics. Despite this generally acknowledged superiority some manufacturers have been reluctant to tum to nonionic-based detergent powders and it is considered that this reluctance is mainly occasioned by processing difficulties. It is difficulty to spray-dry crutcher slurries containing high levels of nonionic surfactants as they tend to autoxidise. Furthermore, unless special measures are taken the resultant powders tend to be of unacceptably high bulk density, and creepy rather than free-flowing.In order to overcome some of these difficulties it has been proposed to manufacture detergent powders containing nonionic surfactants by methods which involve incorporating part of the nonionic surfactant into the slurry and spray-drying it. The remainder of the nonionic surfactant is incorporated by means of an adjunct - a noodle or a marume for example, or by a route involving spraying a liquified or dissolved nonionic surfactant onto an absorbent.
It has proved very difficult to find an absorbent suitable for use in the manufacture of nonionic surfactants, since such absorbents must be capable of absorbing a useful loading of nonionic surfactant, say at least 25% by weight, must preferably be functional in the detergent composition and must be of a density such that when loaded with nonionic they do not separate from the remainder of the powder or cause the overall bulk density to be too high for the requirements of the market.
Furthermore, once these problems have been overcome the absorbent must fulfil one further criterion. It must be capable of withstanding the mechanical handling to which it will be subjected between the base of the spray drying tower and the packet without becoming tacky or breaking down into fines.
We have now discovered that a material suitable for use as an absorbent for nonionic surfactants can be obtained by spray-drying sodium carbonate mixed with sodium bicarbonate.
Accordingly, the present invention provides a process of preparing a material suitable for use as an absorbent for nonionic surfactants which comprises spray-drying a slurry consisting essentially of sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate, the weight ratio sodium carbonate to sodium bicarbonate being from
1.25:1 to 4.0:1.
In a preferred aspect the invention provides a spray-dried absorbent comprising a mixture of sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate in the weight ratio 1.25:1 to 4.0:1 having a bulk density of 0.25 to 0.65 gm/ml, particularly in the range 0.25-0.40 gm/ml, and a moisture content of 1.0 to 17.5%.
In another aspect, the invention provides a process for the manufacture of a fabric-washing detergent powder comprising the step of admixing a liquified nonionic surfactant, or a solution of a nonionic surfactant, with an absorbent as described above.
The invention also provides a pre-mix of a nonionic surfactant and an absorbent as described above.
We have also discovered that the spray-dried material produced by the process described above is useful as a filler not only in detergent compositions containing large amounts of nonionic surfactant, but also in other detergent compositions and that it can be used in place of conventional fillers such as sodium sulphate.
According to this aspect of the invention, there is provided a washing detergent composition comprising a spray-dried mixture as described above.
The bulk density and moisture content of the spray-dried mixture may be adjusted by conventional means known in the art.
For example, as described in "Spray-Drying" by K. Masters, published by Leonard Hill
Books, 1972, greater bulk density can be obtained by increasing the degree of atomization or by increasing the rate of feed of slurry to the spray-drying tower. Conversely bulk density can be reduced by aeration of the slurry, by raising the air inlet temperature or by increasing the slurry temperature.
Conditions such that the spray-dried sodium carbonate-sodium bicarbonate absorbent has a bulk density of 0.25 to 0.40 gms per litre are achieved when the cmtcher slurry temperature is from 40-70"C, and the temperature of the air at the inlet to the spray-drying tower is from 300 to 3750C.
Optionally, a film forming organic polymer may be included amongst the materials in the crutcher slurry, partly to facilitate aeration of the slurry and partly to act as a binder in the spray-dried material. The polymer may be present in an amount of from 0.2So to 1.5%.
A particularly preferred polymer material is a copolymer of vinyl methyl ether and maleic anhydride.
The invention will be further described in the following examples 1-4. Bulk densities are quoted grams/millilitre.
EXAMPLE I
A crutcher sherry was prepared by mixing the following components:
Parts by weight
Soda ash 26.5
Sodium bicarbonate 21.0
Vinyl methyl ether/maleic
anhydride copolymer (1:1)* 2.0
Water 50.5
* as 35% aqueous solution
This slurry was then aerated and spraydried in a spray-drying tower using a slurry temperature of 60 C, an air inlet temperature of 350"C and an outlet temperature of 112 C.
The resultant spray-dried powder had a bulk density of0.31 and a moisture content of 11.5%. This powder was found to absorb 28% by weight of Dobanol 25 7 EO, a liquid nonionic ethoxylated "Oxo" alcohol produced by Shell Chemicals Ltd., U.K. "Dobanol" is a registered trade mark.
EXAMPLE 2
The procedure of Example 1 was repeated using the following components:
Parts by weight
Soda ash 26.5
Sodium bicarbonate 21.0
Water 52.5
The resultant spray-dried powder had a bulk density of 0.33, a moisture content of 9.5% by weight and absorbed 28% by weight of the nonionic surfactant.
EXAMPLE 3
The procedure of Example 1 was repeated using the following components:
Parts by weight
Soda ash 35.5
Sodium bicarbonate 10.0
Vinyl methyl ether/maleic
anhydride copolymer (1: 1)* 2.0
Water 525.
* as 35% aqueous solution
The resultant spray-dried powder had a bulk density of 0.36, a moisture content of 8.5% and absorbed 28% by weight of the nonionic surfactant.
EXAMPLE 4
The procedure of Example 1 was repeated using the following components:
Parts by weight
Soda ash 35.5
Sodium bicarbonate 10.0
Water 54.5
The resultant spray-dried powder had a bulk density of 0.36 and absorbed more than 28% by weight of the nonionic surfactant.
