JP2000319110A - Low-smelling insecticidal mildew proofing agent of noncontact type - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a low-smelling insecticidal mildew proofing agent by making ethylene glycol monohexyl ether as a repellent (insecticide) have the function of mildew proofing agent not requiring contact with a material to be protected from a mold, reducing a smell and prolonging both functions of insect proofing and mildew proofing. SOLUTION: Ethylene glycol monohexyl ether shows insecticidal (repellent) function and mildew proofing function by vaporization. Due to a strong smell, the indoor use of the compound is avoided and its function is also short. Consequently, in order to reduce the strong smell, at least one of glycerol and a surfactant is used as a smell reducing agent and at least one of a porous carrier and an oil absorption agent is used as a vaporization adjuster so as to prolong both functions of insect proofing and mildew proofing.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a non-contact type low-odor insect repellent and fungicide which exerts a wide range of functions without contact with insect repellents.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, fungicides such as methyl paraoxybenzoate, ethyl paraoxybenzoate, butyl paraoxybenzoate, propyl paraoxybenzoate, isobutyl paraoxybenzoate, isopropyl paraoxybenzoate, thiabendazole, dehydroacetic acid, There are sodium dehydroacetate, benzoic acid, sodium benzoate, sorbic acid, sorbin potassium, calcium propionate, sodium propionate and zinc pyrithione. These fungicides are powders or crystals, slightly odorous or odorless, but do not have an insect repellent function, and need to be brought into contact with an antifungal substance to provide a fungicide function. Other powdery or crystalline fungicides that emit strong odors include those of orthophenylphenol, sodium orthophenylphenol and diphenyl, but these also have no insect repellent function and have no fungicide function. It is necessary to contact the antifungal substance in order to impart the antifungal property.

[0003] Examples of liquid fungicides include low-odor ethylene glycol monophenyl ether (also known as 2-phenoxyethanol) and benzalkonium chloride. Among them, the former has a weak insect repellent function, but with respect to the fungicide function, both the former and the latter cannot provide the fungicide function unless they come in contact with the fungi to be protected.

[0004] Insect repellents so far include those of show brain, naphthalene, paraformaldehyde and pyrethroid. These insect repellents have a strong odor and a high danger to the human body. Among them, pyrethroid permethrin is a substance suspected to be an endocrine disrupter, which is thought to cause reproductive abnormalities in birds, thinning of eggshells, and impaired fish reproduction. In spite of their high toxicity, none of these insect repellents can exert their fungicidal function only by the insect repellent function.

[0005]

The problem to be solved is that both the insect repellent and the fungicide are agents having a high risk of causing destruction of the human body and the environment, but the insect repellent having a strong odor. Has no fungicidal function, and the fungicide exhibits a fungicidal function only at the contact points, but does not have an insect repellent function.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a non-contact type insect repellent and fungicide by imparting both an insect repellent and a fungicide to a highly odorous ethylene glycol monohexyl ether. The odor is reduced by an odor reducing agent, and the life of the insect repellent and fungicide is extended by a vaporization regulator.

[0007]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Ethylene glycol monohexyl ether, which is a non-contact type insect repellent and fungicide of the present invention, comprises:
In patent 1838518, "Arthropods,
Although it is known as "a repellent for mollusks and reptiles", it was a repellent (insect repellent) which had an odor that was too strong for indoor use and was likely to be avoided at all.
Therefore, it was not considered that ethylon glycol monohexyl ether also had an antifungal function, and that the antifungal function could be obtained without contacting the antifungal substance. This non-contact type fungicide function of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether was accidentally discovered in a repellent (insect repellent) test for black cockroaches. The repellent test is 40cm long and 7cm wide.
At the bottom ends of a 5 cm, 30 cm high glass aquarium, a paper box 20 cm long, 25 cm wide and 5 cm high with both ends open is placed. In the center of both paper boxes, 3cm in height and 3c in width as bait
m, 1cm thick bread is placed, and only one paper box is filled with filter paper impregnated with 0.1g of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether at 5cm from the opening of the paper box. The paper box containing is used as the control sample. Ten black cockroaches were placed in an aquarium and the upper part of the aquarium was covered with 800-mesh polyester gauze. In the test, the number of activities on each specimen was counted every two hours by observing the aquarium in a dark place. In the test, the repellency index was determined from the total number of results obtained by performing the repetition four times according to the following equation. The filter paper is Toyo Roshi Advantech N
o. Use 1. The total number of activities on the sample side counted from 1 to 4 times was 2, the total number of activities on the control sample side was 38, and the repellency index was 94.7 (rounded down to the second decimal place). Repellent index = [1- (total number of activities on the sample side / total number of activities on the control side)] × 100 If the numerical value is negative, the repellent index is set to 0.

[0008] After confirming the repellent, each specimen material is placed in a 300 cc glass beaker for reconfirmation.
It sealed with the film made from vinylidene chloride. The filter paper impregnated with the repellent is hung in a beaker with a 2 cm long thread so that it does not come in contact with the bread, and the end of the thread is attached to the inside of the sealing film with cellophane tape and placed in a room with an average temperature of 15 ° C. saved. Two weeks had passed since the confirmation test was not performed from the next day, and when I tried to discard the sample material in the beaker, red mold and black mold were generated in a beaker containing only bread, In the beaker containing the filter paper impregnated with the repellent (insect repellent), no mold was found on the bread.

[0009] If it is assumed that the non-contact type fungicide function of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether, which was accidentally discovered due to the delay in reconfirmation of the repellent test, is due to hexyl ether, then phenyl ether is also fungicide resistant. Considering that it may have a function, prevention by six kinds of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether, diethylene glycol monohexyl ether, diethylene glycol mono 2-ethylhexyl ether, ethylene glycol monophenyl ether, phenylene glycol monophenyl ether and propylene glycol monophenyl ether A test for mold confirmation was performed. The antifungal test is 3cm at 1cm thickness.
Sprinkle water on each side of the loaf of bread to promote spoilage, and lightly shake excess water to drain.
Prepare seven glass beakers placed in the center of the bottom of the glass beaker c. Each agent for antifungal confirmation is 0.1g applied to the central portion of the width of 1 cm, 100% polyester cut into 15cm long nonwoven fabric (1 m ² per weight 100 g), the antifungal confirmation nonwoven create six Each mold-resistant non-woven fabric is slightly hung over the top of the beaker, slightly bridged, fixed with cellophane tape, and sealed with a vinylidene chloride film. One of the seven beakers is filled with only wet bread and sealed as described above. 7 sealed beakers with an average temperature of 15
The temperature of the mold was observed every 24 hours in a room at room temperature. The nonwoven fabric coated with ethylene glycol monophenyl ether among the nonwoven fabrics for checking antifungal properties is also known as 2-phenoxyethanol, which is a bactericidal antifungal agent listed in the permission standards for cosmetic varieties. 5 since the test started
After 6 days, mold was observed in six beakers including the nonwoven fabric for checking antifungal properties coated with ethylene glycol monophenyl ether, but the mold was found in the beaker having the nonwoven fabric for checking fungicides coated with ethylene glycol monohexyl ether. Did not occur. As for the mold generation, red mold and yellow mold were found in a beaker containing only bread, and black mold was found on the whole surface of the bread the next day. In other beakers, blue mold had developed. This confirmation test was repeated five times, and in each of the tests, mold was generated except for ethylene glycol monohexyl ether.

When the above-described nonwoven fabric for checking fungicides coated with ethylene glycol monohexyl ether was hung in a room having an average temperature of 15 ° C. for 24 hours, the odor of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether was trapped in the room.
The nonwoven fabric for confirming the antifungal properties had no smell and lost the repellent (insect repellent) function and also the antifungal function. In order to use ethylene glycol monohexyl ether as an insect repellent and fungicide, it was necessary to reduce odor and extend the life of the insect repellent and fungicide functions.

Therefore, in order to reduce the strong odor of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether, if glycerin is added as an odor reducing agent by 10% with respect to the weight of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether, the odor of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether is slightly reduced. It is reduced to the level of smell.

Other odor reducing agents other than ethylene glycol include polyoxyethylene octyl phenyl ether adducts of 5 to 12 mol of ethylene oxide, 1: 1 mol type coconut oil fatty acid diethanolamide, 1: 1 mol type lauric acid diethanolamide, 1: 2 mol type coconut oil fatty acid diethanolamide, 1: 2 mol type lauric acid diethanolamide, dioctyl sulfosuccinic acid Na and the like. When at least one of these odor reducing agents is added in an amount of 5% based on the weight of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether, the odor is reduced to such an extent that the odor can be finally discriminated. Even if two or more of these odor reducing agents are used in combination, there is no significant difference in the total amount of the odor reducing agents. .

Further, an odor reducing agent in which glycerin and polyoxyethylene octyl phenyl ether (an addition product of 8 mol of ethylene oxide) are mixed at a weight ratio of 2: 1 is added to the weight of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether by 3%. %, The odor of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether is reduced to such an extent that it can hardly be discriminated by the sense of smell. The number of moles of ethylene oxide added to the polyoxyethylene octyl phenyl ether is not limited to 8 moles, but is 5 to 1 mole.
Up to 2 moles of the adduct is effective.

In place of the above polyoxyethylene octyl phenyl ether, Na salt of dioctyl sulfosuccinic acid, 1: 1 mol type coconut oil diethanolamide, 1: 1 mol type lauric acid diethanolamide, 1: 1 mol
Even if the same amount of 2 mol type coconut oil fatty acid diethanolamide and 1: 2 mol type lauric acid diethanolamide are used,
It becomes an odor reducing agent with equivalent efficacy.

To extend the life of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether, 5 to 10% of a porous carrier or an oil absorbing agent as a vaporizer is added to the weight of the blend of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether and the odor reducing agent. It is obtained by

[0016]

EXAMPLES Example 1 100 g of a blended product in which the mixing ratio of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether and polyoxyethylene octyl phenyl ether added to 8 moles of ethylene oxide was 100 to 5 by weight, and an average particle diameter of 50 microns And 6 g of smectite powder of

[0009] The same nonwoven fabric used for checking the antifungal properties described above is coated with 0.1 g with a glass rod and suspended for 24 hours in a room having an average temperature of 15 ° C. When the nonwoven fabric was smelled after 24 hours, the nonwoven fabric had a slight odor of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether which was almost the same as that at the start of hanging. The non-woven insect repellent and fungus nonwoven fabric was subjected to an insect repellent test against black cockroaches and also to a non-contact fungicide test. Repellent (insect repellent) test and repellent index

The described method was employed. Results: From 1 to 4 times, the total number of activities observed on the sample side was 1 and the number of activities on the control sample side was 39. Repellent index = [1- (1 ÷ 39)] × 100 = 97.4 In addition, the antifungal test using bread is

[0009] The method described is employed, and the test is performed in a room at an average temperature of 15 ° C, and the confirmation period is set to 15 days. I went there. Results: In the case of the insect repellent and fungicide nonwoven fabric, no mold was found in all of the five confirmations. On the other hand, in the case of non-insect repellent non-woven fabric, mold was formed on the 4th day after the start of the test, and there was a difference in the mold generated in each test. When blue mold occurs,
There were various times when black mold occurred.

The odor of the pelletized insect repellent and fungicide was reduced to such an extent that the odor could not be discriminated by the sense of smell. The odor reducing agent was (1: 1 molar coconut oil fatty acid diethanolamide): Na salt of dioctyl sulfosuccinic acid: glycerin = 1:
The weight ratio is 1: 4. Subjected to the pelletized insect antifungal agent 0.1g moth testing bag (dimensions 2 cm × 2 cm) to put clothes moth larvae (55 days old) of polyester spunbonded nonwoven fabric (1 m ² per weight 20 g) did. Insect repellent test: A 500 cc glass container (commonly called mayonnaise bottle) was covered with a bag containing an insect repellent and an antifungal agent on the lid with double-sided tape. Insect repellent specimens, and those without a bag containing the insect repellent on the lid are used as control specimens. The insect repellent specimen and the control specimen are placed in a constant temperature room set at 25 ° C. and left for 7 days.
The mortality was determined by the following equation. Lethal rate (%) = number of lethal / number of test × 100 Results: 19 lethal and 1 surviving animals on the insect repellent specimen side,
The mortality rate is 95%. 0 lethal and 20 surviving on the control specimen
The number of dead animals is 0%. In addition, 100 g of ethylene glycol monohexyl ether was added to 250 g of the above diatomaceous earth fired product.
1 g of the substance adsorbed on the pouch was put in the above-mentioned bag as an insect repellent and fungicide, and this was suspended in a room having an average temperature of 20 ° C. for 7 days, and then the above insect repellent test was carried out. Was.
In addition, the antifungal test was carried out on bread used in the bottle used for the insect repellent test instead of the larvae of the larva but containing 1 g of water (dimensions: 3 cm × 3 cm ×
2 cm) was used. Insect repellent: 1 bottle with low odor insect repellent
Since there are 8 animals and 2 survivors, the lethal number is 90%. Since the number of bottles containing the insect repellent and fungicide is 5 and the number of surviving animals is 15, the number of lethal animals is 25%. Antifungal result: 4 days later In a bottle containing only bread, black mold was generated. 7 days later In the bottle containing the bag containing the insect repellent and fungicide, red mold was generated. 30 days later No mold was generated in the bottle containing the low-odor insect repellent.
