JPH08199199A - Dust-preventing and lustering detergent for tire - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE: To obtain a detergent capable of washing the stains of tires, capable of enhancing the dust-removing and lustering effects, not swelling rubbers, not affecting human bodies, and good in workability. CONSTITUTION: This dust-preventing and lustering detergent comprises water as a main component, 6-15wt.% of a silicone oil, 0.3-1.0wt.% of natural carnauba wax or microcrystalline wax, 2-10wt.% of a mineral spirit, 1.2-1.5wt.% of an emulsifier, 1.5-3wt.% of a foam-controlling agent, and 0.1-2wt.% of an evaporation-controlling agent. Thereby, the dust-preventing and lustering effects of the detergent can be preserved in comparison with conventional detergents. Since the detergent can be applied not only to spray type tools but also to hand pump type tools, the disposable employment of the detergent can be reduced, and the detergent is useful for the effective utilization of the resources.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a dustproof gloss cleaner for tires, which can be sprayed on the outer surface of an automobile tire to remove dirt and dust and can retain dustproofness and gloss for a relatively long period of time.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Usually, tires are washed by washing with water and brushing, but this method damages the surface of tires and aluminum wheels by brushing, it takes time to wipe off water, and workability is poor. There was a problem that the luster and the dustproof effect did not last.

[0003] As a cleaning agent for the outer surface of the tire, there is a petroleum solvent type spray type polish cleaning agent, but this type of cleaning agent has drawbacks such as elution of the coated surface, swelling of the tire and discoloration. There was a possibility that the human body would be adversely affected. Also, the luster and dustproof effects do not last long. Further, the conventional mainstream of the polish cleaner is a disposable type in a spray can, which is a waste of resources.

In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a good cleaning effect, a long-term gloss and dust-proof effect, which is safe for the human body, and which can be used in a hand pump as well. It is to provide a dustproof luster cleaner.

[0005]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The dustproof luster cleaner for tires of the present invention contains water as a main component and silicone oils 6 to 15
%, natural carnauba wax or microcrystalline wax 0.3 to 1.0 wt%, mineral spirits 2 to 10 wt% and a suitable amount of emulsifier.

More specifically, water as a main component, silicone oil 6 to 15 wt%, natural carnauba wax or microcrystalline wax 0.3 to 1.0 wt%,
Mineral spirit 2-10 wt%, emulsifier 1.2-
It is preferable that the composition contains 1.5 wt%, a foam control agent 1.5 to 3 wt% and an evaporation inhibitor 0.1 to 2 wt%.

The dustproof luster cleaner for tires of the present invention is manufactured as follows. First, mineral spirits at 50 ℃
As described above, steam heating is performed, and natural carnauba wax or microcrystalline wax is mixed and dissolved therein. Next, silicone oil is mixed, an emulsifier is added, purified water or ion-exchanged water is further added, and the mixture is stirred to obtain an emulsified stock solution. To this is added an appropriate amount of foam control agent and evaporation inhibitor.

The dustproof luster cleaner for tires of the present invention can be used in both a spray type and a hand pump type. When using the spray type, fill the spray can together with the propellant. When using the hand pump type, the hand pump may be directly filled.

The reason for adding each component and the reason for limiting the amount added are as follows. Silicone oil is added for luster and dust protection. The amount added is in the range of 6 to 15 wt%. If it is less than 6 wt%, the gloss will not appear and it will be 15 wt.
If it exceeds%, dust tends to adhere. Also, the silicone oil should have a particle size in the range of 350 to 1000 cs.
A mixture of 000 cs of silicone oil is desirable in order to enhance the safety of the human body.

Natural carnauba wax or microcrystalline wax is added for the purpose of producing luster. The amount added is in the range of 0.3 to 1.0 wt%. 0.3 wt%
If it is less than 1.0 wt.%, Sufficient gloss is not obtained, and if it exceeds 1.0 wt. Although it is preferable to use natural carnauba wax, natural carnauba wax may not be available due to weather conditions because it is botanical. In that case, microcrystalline wax is used as a substitute.

Mineral spirit is an oil decomposition assisting solvent and a mixing aid. An appropriate amount of addition is 2 to 10 wt%, and if it exceeds this range, it will solidify at room temperature.

As the emulsifier, a nonionic surfactant (polyoxyethylene alkyl ether, higher fatty acid glycerin ester, sucrose fatty acid ester, etc.) can be used. 1.2 to maintain the emulsion balance
1.5 wt% is an appropriate amount, and when it exceeds or falls below this range, the emulsion balance is lost and the components are separated.

Ethyl alcohol or methyl alcohol can be used as a foam control agent. The addition amount is 1.
About 5 to 3 wt% is suitable. If it is less than 1.5 wt%, the defoaming amount is too small, and if it exceeds 3 wt%, the defoaming amount is too large.

Ethylene glycol can be used as the evaporation inhibitor. Addition amount is 0.1 to 2.0 wt
% Is appropriate. This range is effective for preventing precipitation and separation.
