Description
LIQUID DETERGENT FOR LAUNDRY THAT DISPLAYS BETTER STABILITY OF THE POLISHER
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to detergent compositions for laundry with a better stability of the water-insoluble brightener, containing primary alkyl sulfate branched in the middle of the chain.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Consumers have numerous laundry treatment compositions for washing clothes and other fabrics in traditional washing machines. However, for consumers it is still difficult to remove some residues and / or stains from cloth items. Frequently, detergent manufacturers increase the amount of surfactants in their detergent products to provide better cleaning. However, increasing the amount of surfactants produces an additional cost in the entire product that must be absorbed by the manufacturer or transferred to the consumer, both being undesirable options. Increasing surfactant levels also increases the possibility of damaging or discoloring fabrics, which is extremely undesirable for the consumer. In addition, due to the excessive increase produced lately
In the costs of petrochemical derivatives, such as certain surfactants, detergent manufacturers have faced even greater problems in formulating cost-effective laundry detergent compositions that provide better cleaning. Optical brighteners are known in the industry for their use in laundry detergent compositions and, when deposited on fabrics, provide a visual benefit. It is convenient to include them in liquid laundry detergent compositions, as they can make white clothes look whiter or colored clothes look brighter and, therefore, look as good as new. To be deposited on fabrics, optical brighteners that are more insoluble in water are preferred. However, these brighteners are characterized by being more difficult to formulate stably in liquid aqueous laundry compositions. When used in sufficient amounts, it is known that monoethanolamine (MEA) acts as a counter-ion for optical brighteners and thus provides better rinse aid stability. However, the level of MEA in a laundry detergent product should be limited to a certain extent in order to avoid the problems of bad odor in the finished product and the residual malodor that is deposited on the fabrics washed with the detergent. The primary alkylsulfate surfactants branched in the middle of the chain, having an average carbon chain length of about 14 to about 17 (MBAS surfactants, by their
acronyms in English), are known to provide good cleaning properties. MBAS surfactants exhibit good cleaning properties when used as a primary base surfactant as well as when used at a lower level in combination with other surfactants or in low surfactant detergent compositions. However, it has been found that when low absolute levels are included in a high performance liquid laundry detergent composition (HDL), MBAS surfactants with a carbon chain length of about 16 to 17 ( also referred to as "HSAS surfactants"), generally provide better cleaning than those with other chain lengths. However, the use of HSAS surfactants generally produces an increase in the hydrophobicity of the surfactant system. Without being limited by theory, surprisingly, it has been found that this increased hydrophobicity of the surfactant system seems to lead to a decrease in the stability of the brightener, even when combined with water-insoluble brighteners. A person of ordinary experience would have expected, on the contrary, a better solubility of the water-insoluble brightener due to the higher hydrophobicity of the surfactant system. Accordingly, there is still a need for a liquid laundry detergent composition that provides good cleaning and contains water-insoluble optical brightener and also includes the ability to reduce overall surfactant levels by
the use of branched primary alkyl sulfate surfactants in the middle of the chain, having an average carbon chain length of from about 16 to about 17.

The laundry detergent compositions of the present invention are generally liquid. In a specific embodiment, the compositions are liquid in form and comprise high performance liquid compositions. All percentages and proportions used herein are expressed by weight of the total composition and all measurements made were made at 25 ° C unless otherwise indicated. The compositions of the present invention may include, consist essentially of or consist of the components of the present invention as well as other ingredients described herein. As used herein, the term "consists essentially of" refers to the fact that the composition or component may include additional ingredients, but only if these do not materially alter the basic and novel characteristics of the claimed compositions or methods. All percentages, parts and proportions are expressed based on the total weight of the liquid laundry detergent compositions described in the present invention, unless otherwise specified.
shape. All these weights, which correspond to the listed ingredients, are based on the active level and, therefore, do not include carriers or by-products that could be included in the materials available in the market., unless otherwise specified. It has now been found that a liquid laundry composition containing from about 6% to about 20%, by weight of the laundry composition, of a surfactant component containing from about 1% to about 6%, by weight of the composition for laundry, of a branched primary alkyl sulfate surfactant in the middle of the chain, having an average carbon chain length of from about 16 to about 17, and from about 0.5% to about 9%, by weight of the laundry composition, of a HLAS surfactant selected from alkylbenzenesulfonic acids, alkali metal salts of C10-16 alkylbenzenesulfonic acids, can be combined with from about 0.03% to about 0.2%, by weight of the laundry composition, of a water insoluble optical brightener having a Water solubility, when measured at about 50 ° C, from about 0 to about 2 g / l; and from about 0.5% to about 4%, by weight of the laundry composition, of monoethanolamine, to exhibit better rinse aid stability and good cleaning properties and at the same time maintain the profitability of a lower surfactant system, wherein the
The composition also exhibits a ratio of HLAS surfactant to the total amount of the surfactant component, based on weight, from about 1: 14 to about 5: 7; a ratio of MEA with respect to the total surfactant of from about 1: 15 to about 1: 4, and a ratio of water-insoluble polish to total surfactant that is less than 1: 100. Without being limited by theory, it is thought that the presence of surfactants having aromatic rings, such as the HLAS and MLAS surfactants, increases the compatibility of the water-insoluble brightener with the aqueous phase and with the help of minimum levels of the brightener counter-ion. , MEA, counteracts the effects of instability for the HSAS surfactant brightener. This allows to provide a convenient liquid laundry detergent composition that includes water-insoluble brightener (with a good deposit on the fabrics) with good cleaning properties (even with generally low and cost-effective surfactant levels) of the HSAS surfactants, without the undesirable bad smell of higher levels of MEA. The compositions herein may also include a wide variety of other ingredients. Although the specification concludes with the claims that particularly state and clearly claim the invention, it is believed that the present invention will be better understood from the following description.
Laundry Detergent Liquid Composition As used herein, "liquid laundry detergent composition" relates to compositions that are useful for cleaning fabrics, fabrics, articles of clothing, and the like. These laundry compositions have a viscosity such that they are pourable or compressible at room temperature.
Water insoluble optical brightener Optical brighteners are well known in the industry for their use in laundry detergent compositions and when they are deposited on the fabrics they offer a visual benefit, since they can make the linen look whiter and the clothes of color Look brighter and, therefore, look as good as new. As used herein, "water-insoluble optical brightener" is related to those optical brighteners having a solubility in water, when measured at about 50 ° C, from 0 to about 2 g / l. In one embodiment, the optical brightener has a solubility in water, when measured at about 50 ° C, from about 0.2 to about 2 g / l. The laundry detergent compositions of the present invention comprise from about 0.03% to about 0.2%, by weight of the laundry composition, of the water-insoluble brightener. The laundry compositions of the present invention include a ratio of water-insoluble brightener with respect to the
surfactant component which is less than about 1: 100, alternatively, the ratio of the water-insoluble brightener to the surfactant component is less than about 1: 130. Some examples of water-insoluble brighteners useful herein include 4,4'-bis. { [4-anilino-6-morpholino-s-triazine-2-yl] amino} -stilbene disodium 2,2'-disulfonate (sold on the market under the trade name TINOPAL AMS-GX, by Ciba-Geigy, or by the name of BLANKOPHOR DML, by Miles); 4,4'-bis- (2-sulfostyryl) biphenyl di-sodium (commercially available under the tradename TINOPHAL CBS, by Ciba-Geigy); 4,4'-bis [. { 4,6-di-anilino-s-triazine-2-yl] -amino} -stilbene disodium 2,2'-disulfonate (distributed on the market under the trade name TINOPHAL TAS, by Ciba Geigy),
SURFACTANT COMPONENT The laundry compositions of the present invention contain from about 6% to about 20%, by weight of the laundry composition, of a surfactant component. The surfactant component contains HSAS surfactant, HLAS surfactant and may contain other additional surfactants. As used herein, "HLAS surfactant" refers to alkylbenzenesulfonic acids and alkali metal salts of C10-16 alkylbenzenesulfonic acids, preferably, C11-14 alkylbenzenesulfonic acids. The alkaline group can be linear and the linear alkylbenzene sulfonates are known as "LAS". Alternatively,
the alkali group may be branched, as described in U.S. Pat. num. 6,593,285; 6,596,680; 6,306,817; and 6,589,927. These surfactants are known in the industry as branched alkylbenzene sulphonic acids. Alkylbenzene sulfonates, in particular LAS, are well known in the industry. Such surfactants and their preparation are described, for example, in U.S. Pat. num. 2,220,099 and 2,477,383. An example of a HLAS surfactant is linear sodium alkyl benzene sulfonate, commonly referred to as "NaLAS" (for its acronym in English). In one embodiment, the composition contains from about 0.5% to about 9%, by weight of the laundry composition, of HLAS, and the ratio of HLAS surfactant to the total amount of the surfactant component, based on weight, is about 1: 14 to about 5: 7. In one embodiment, the ratio of HLAS surfactant to the total amount of surfactant component is from about 1: 14 to about 1: 2. As used herein, "HLAS surfactant" should be construed as including mixtures of HLAS surfactants. As used herein, "HSAS surfactant" relates to the class of surfactants of branched primary half chain alkyl sulfates having an average carbon chain length of from about 16 to about 17. In one embodiment, the surfactant component contains 50 % or less, by weight of the surfactant component, of HSAS surfactant. In one embodiment, the composition contains
from about 1% to about 6%, by weight of the
composition for laundry, of HSAS surfactant. As used in the
present, it should be interpreted that "HSAS surfactant" also includes
mixtures of HSAS surfactants.
The laundry compositions of the present invention
they comprise branched, medium-chain primary alkyl sulfate surfactants having the general formula
R R1 R2 I I I CH3CH9 (CH2) wCH (CH2)? CH (CH7) and CH (CH2) zpSO3M
Generally, the surfactant component will contain a mixture of at least two primary branched alkyl sulfate surfactants.
chain. In one embodiment, the surfactant component will also contain a
amount of other surfactant materials and similar byproducts that are
present due to the production procedures of those materials. This
will be understood by those with ordinary experience in the area of
primary alkylsulfate surfactants branched in the middle of the chain.
Mixtures of primary alkyl sulfate surfactants
branched half chain of the present invention comprise molecules
that have a linear primary alkyl sulphate main chain (ie the
Longest linear carbon chain that includes the carbon atom
sulfated). These alkylic main chains comprise
about 6 to about 16 carbon atoms, alternatively, from about 13 to about 15 carbon atoms; and further the molecules comprise a branched primary alkyl moiety having at least a total of about 14, but not more than about 17, carbon atoms. Also, the mixture of branched half-chain primary alkyl sulfate surfactants has a total average carbon number for the branched primary alkyl portions in the range of about 16 to about 17. Accordingly, the mixtures of the present invention comprise minus a branched primary alkyl sulfate surfactant having a longer linear carbon chain of not less than 14 carbon atoms or more than 16 carbon atoms. For example, a primary alkylsulfate surfactant with a total of 16 carbon atoms having 14 carbon atoms in the main chain must have 1 and 2 branching units (ie, R, R1 or R3).
