Description
LAUNDRY SANITIZING AND SOFTENING COMPOSITION
The present invention relates to a laundry sanitizing and softening composition to be added to a laundry washing process to provide improved reduction in bacteria and viruses during a laundry washing process while also providing fabric softening.
Background
Consumers have increased interest in washing laundry under energy and water efficient conditions due to environmental concerns, and also washing with laundry compositions with reduced environmental impact, such as less environmentally harmful laundry detergents. Consumers are therefore interested in washing laundry at cooler temperatures, with less water and with milder laundry detergents. Washing laundry under these conditions raises concerns that the resulting items may be visibly clean but may be unhygienic because they may still harbour pathogens. Therefore, there is a growing demand for laundry sanitizing compositions to ensure that clean laundry harbours fewer pathogens. However, laundry sanitizing compositions are added to the fabric softener drawer of the washing machine, making it difficult to use both laundry sanitizing compositions and fabric softener compositions in the same wash cycle.
Liquid fabric softener (also known as fabric conditioner) compositions are typically a dispersion of cationic quaternary ammonium surfactants in an aqueous carrier. These cationic quaternaly ammonium surfactants form positively charged vesicles dispersed in the carrier. Adding further cations to the system may affect the stability of the vesicles, leading to flocculation. Thus, it has been difficult to combine in a single composition the actives used in laundry sanitizing compositions, typically cationic biocidal agents, with the cationic quaternary ammonium surfactants used as fabric softening agents in liquid fabric softeners.
WO 96/21715 seeks to provide a means for stabilizing dispersions of cationic fabric softeners in liquid carriers, particularly those containing added electrolytes, by using certain polymers incorporated into concentrated fabric softener compositions to -1 -enhance stability. In particular, when formulating fabric softeners with higher concentrations of cationic surfactant it is usually desirable to incorporate materials such as inorganic electrolytes, e.g. to de-water the softener vesicles and to incorporate perfume with the cationic vesicles to stabilise the perfume. It is suggested that the polymers interact with the cationic softener vesicles, inhibiting their coalescence in the presence of high ionic strength, such as when adding further cations to the system Suggested polymers are water-soluble polyesters that can be formed from: (1) ethylene glycol, 1,2-propylene glycol or a mixture thereof; (2) a polyethylene glycol (PEG) capped at one end with a C1-4 alkyl group; and (3) a dicarboxylic acid (or its diester).
US 3,349,033 relates to microbiologically active softeners. It discusses how mixtures of germicidal quaternary ammonium salts with fabric softeners are unstable, remaining homogeneous for at most a few weeks. This instability is allegedly overcome by adding a small amount of an emulsifier (e.g. a long chain fatty alcohol) to the mixture causing the mixture to remain homogenously emulsified for longer and under successive freeze-thaw cycles. The long chain fatty alcohol emulsifiers are disclosed to be C10-18 fatty alcohols, such as "topped fatty alcohols" like "Lorol 5", disclosed to have an alkyl chain distribution of 3% Cm, 61% Cu, 23% C14, 11% C16 and 2% C18. The cationic quaternary ammonium softeners discussed are of the formula NR'R"R"R-X, where R and R' are C10-20 alkyl groups; R" is methyl; R" is methyl, ethyl or (CH2-CH0)H where n>0, and X is chlorine, bromine, sulfate, methosulfate or ethosulfate. An example of a common contemporaneous cationic quaternary ammonium softener is di-(hydrogenated tallow) dimethyl ammonium methosulfate, which has since been superseded by more biodegradable compounds, such as esterquats. The germicidal quaternary ammonium salts used in US 3,349,033 are of the single-chain variety, such as Alkyl Dimethyl Benzyl Ammonium Chloride ("ADBAC" or "BKC"). Germicidal quaternary ammonium salts have developed considerably since US 3,349,033 with Alkyl Dimethyl EthylBenzyl Ammonium Chloride ("ADEBAC" or "EBC") and Dialkyl Dimethyl Ammonium Chloride ("DDAC", a twin-chain quat) becoming available, as well as mixtures of these quaternary ammonium salts. DDAC is the most efficacious germicidal quaternary ammonium and has improved tolerance for anionic surfactants, organic loads and hard water compared with the single-chain quats BKC and EBC. EBC -2 -is typically used in combination with BKC. Both the germicidal quaternary ammonium salts and the fabric softener actives have therefore advanced considerably since US 3,349,033.
W02002/072745A I provides a rinse added composition for the conditioning of fabric in a rinse, the composition comprising a fabric softener active, a suds suppressing system and a surfactant scavenger.
W02006/094582A1 discusses how consumers prefer liquid fabric conditioners that appear thick and creamy, which is indicated by having a high viscosity and a high opacity. Thin, translucent, or watery liquid fabric conditioners are perceived as cheap and/or ineffective. W02006/094582A1 suggests that polymeric viscosity modifiers may be used to impart a high viscosity and opacity to the composition and uses water-soluble polysaccharide polymers to this effect.
W097/47716A2 describes aqueous softening dispersions containing 0.5 to 20 wt% of at least one non-ionic fat, 0.2 to 10 wt % of a water-soluble or insoluble cationic emulsifier and possibly up to 10 wt% of a non-ionic emulsifier, in which the weight ratios between fat and emulsifiers is between 10:1 and 0.5:1, and which are alleged to exhibit a good soft-care effect if the zeta potential of the dispersion is at least +30 niV at 25°C and a pH of 7.
GB2207446 relates to aqueous fabric softening compositions based on cationic fabric softeners and fatty alcohols. The weight ratio of cationic softening agent to fatty alcohols is in the range of from about 6:1 to 2,8:1.
W002120706A1 describes a method of preparing an aqueous dispersion of a fabric conditioning composition comprises mixing 7.5 to 60 wt% of a cationic fabric softening compound with 0.01 % -1.5 wt% of a non-ionic surfactant viscosity modifier and up to 1.4 % by weight of a fatty alcohol, the combination of (b) and (c) being no more than 1.5 % by weight, based on the total weight of the composition. Saturated fatty alcohols are preferred as these were considered to deliver greater benefits in terms of stability, especially low temperature stability.
W003/022972A I also describes a method of preparing an aqueous, liquid fabric conditioning composition wherein saturated fatty alcohols are preferred as these were -3 -considered to deliver greater benefits in terms of stability, especially low temperature stability.
Dettol® Laundry Cleanser is one commercially available product that is used for sanitizing clean laundry. It contains the dialkyl (C8-11)) dimethylammonium chloride (DDAC) and benzyl-C12-1s-alkyldimethyl chloride (ADBAC). Typically, about I 20m1 of Dettol® Laundry Cleanser is added to the fabric softener drawer of the washing machine so that it is used in the washing machine rinse cycle. Dettol® Laundry Cleanser kills 99.9% of bacteria (i.e. a 3-log reduction in bacteria) in laboratory tests.
There remains a need for laundry softener compositions that also provide germ kill.
It is an object of the invention to provide a laundry softener composition that also provides germ kill during a laundry rinse cycle.

Sample D containing the short-chain saturated emulsifier lauryl alcohol was stable but was translucent; consumers prefer opaque laundry softeners and so Sample D was not considered commercially viable. The samples containing unsaturated emulsifiers. Samples 2-4, were found to be stable over prolonged periods of time and at all conditions. A zeta potential of greater than 60 mV was considered necessary.
Two samples were prepared usimg a different order of mixing to those above. Both samples contained 4% biocide:, rather than the 3% used above. Both samples contained oley1 alcohol as the emulsifier One sample used the same esterquat as the samples above, i.e. Tetranyl© AT7590. The other sample used a partially hydrogenated palm esterquat, Tetranyl®L6/90 (Kao), which was similar to the Tetranyl® AT7590 and contained 90 % active matter and 10% [PA. Both samples were stable over 12 weeks at -12 -all conditions. The tallow-based esterquat had a zeta potential of 716 mV at 25 'V and the palm-based esterquat had a zeta potential of 74.6 triV at 25 ct Thus,, the samples containing unsaturated emulp,ifiers were mind to be stable over prolonged periods of time and at all conditions even using a different method of manufacture.
Antimicrobial Efficacy (British Standard) Two samples according to the invention (Sample 5 and Sample 6) were evaluated for their antimicrobial efficacy against Staphylococcus auretts (ATCC 6538), Escherichia co/i (ATCC 10536), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 15442) and Enterococcus hirae (ATCC 10541) using an antimicrobial suspension test based on British Standard reference No: EN 1276:2009 method entitled "Chemical Disinfectants and Antiseptics -Quantitative Suspension Test for the Evaluation of bactericidal activity of chemical disinfectants and antiseptics used in food, industrial, domestic and institutional areas -Test method and requirements (Phase 2, step 1)". A greater than 5-log reduction of all organisms (Pseudonionas aeruginosa"Staphylococcus mucus, Enterococcus hirae, Escherichia colt) for a contact time of I to 60 minutes (determined by product specification) at a testing temperature ranging from 4°C to 60°C+1.0°C (determined by product specification) is required to pass the EN1276. Additional and optional contact times, temperatures, and test organisms can be used.
The test protocol tests the efficacy of the compositions of the present invention and the comparative examples against gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. The test organisms used were Staphylococcus (litmus (ATCC 6538), Escherichia colt (ATCC 10536), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 15442) and Enterococcus hirae (ATCC 10541).
The bacterial strains were cultured on tryptic soy agar (TSA) slant from frozen stock and incubated for 18-24 hours. Following incubation, 21 and 3' generation transfers were prepared and used to prepare test suspensions as described in the BS EN 1276:2009 test method. The working culture must be either a second or third generation subculture on TSA slants from a cryogenic stock. The cell suspensions were adjusted to produce approximately 1.5 -5.0 x 108 CFU mL1. Subcultures were prepared on TSA -13 -slants and incubated at 36+1°C for 18-24 hours. The growth medium and temperature used were TSA and 361°C. Test solutions and test cultures are equilibrated to a test temperature of 20±1°C in a water bath.
The tests were performed using "clean experimental conditions, i.e. 0.3g/I Bovine Albumin (BA) in-test concentration, rather than "dirty" experimental conditions, i.e. 3g/1 BA in-test concentration. For laundry sanitizers/softeners, the desired experimental conditions are "clean conditions" because the laundry sanitizer/softener is used after a laundry detergent in a laundry washing process, i.e. on clean laundry. Experimentally, a 1:1 dilution of the test culture and test conditions was 10 performed and allowed to react for 2 minutes. 2.0mL of the test culture was exposed to 8.0mL of the test product for a 22-minute contact time and then a 1.0mL aliquot was neutralized in a verified neutralizer. After a 5-minute neutralization time, the neutralized sample was serially diluted, plated on TSA and incubated at 36+1°C for 48 hours. The average Logi() CFUlnaL for the test suspension was calculated and used to compute the log reduction post-treatment. At least a 5-log reduction of all organisms tested for a 22-minute contact time was chosen to indicate that the tested formulation has the desired level of antimicrobial properties against tested organisms. Log reduction greater than 4 means >99.99% reduction in the number of cells; log reduction greater than 5 means >99.999% reduction in the number of cells and denotes complete kill.
Sample 5 was prepared as follows.
I. 439.52g of soft water was added to the beaker and heated to 40°C.

The test was performed in accordance with ASTM D5237 -14 "Standard Guide for Evaluating Fabric Softeners (modified)".
Method A fabric bundle consisting of poly/cotton, cotton, and cotton terry looped towels, 5 was washed with AATCC standard detergent and rinsed using the samples. After wash/rinse completion, towels were removed and conditioned overnight at 23°C, 50% Relative Humidity (RH). Substrates were then prepared for panel evaluation.
individual panellists evaluated the blinded samples based on a Ranking Comparison. Prior to evaluations, each panellist was instructed to wash and dry hands. If re-evaluations were needed, panellists were instructed to evaluate different sections of the towel. Panellists were presented with a group of six test fabrics on a table, with each fabric presented randomly and containing a different softener treatment and a blinded control. Each of the substrates were ranked from least to most soft, with no ties allowed, using a rating scale ranging from 1-6, with 1 being the least soft and 6 being the softest.
The evaluations were all completed within the span of 2 hours. Fisher's LSD for ranked sums was performed to determine statistically significant differences, if any, between all products. Based on Fisher's LSD, any two samples can be described as significantly different if their ranked sums differ by more than the value calculated in LSDrank. All data and results can be found below.
