Description

COMPOSITIONS DETERGENTS FOR LAUNDRY AND CONDITIONING OF FABRICS WITH OXIDIZED POLYMERS BASED OF AMINA CÍCLICA TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to compositions, in liquid or granulated form, for use in laundry applications, wherein the compositions comprise certain cyclic amine-based polymer, oligomer or copolymer materials that have been oxidized, and which impart benefits of appearance and integrity to fabrics and textiles washed in washing solutions formed of said compositions.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Obviously, it is well known that alternating cycles of use of laundry fabrics and textiles, such as garment items and knitted dresses, will inevitably adversely affect the appearance and integrity of used and washed fabric and textile articles. Fabrics and textiles simply wear out over time and with use. The laundry of fabrics and textiles is necessary to remove dirt and stains that accumulate in them and during ordinary use. However, the same laundry operation, with several cycles, can accentuate and contribute to the in ^ üH ^ m ^ deterioration of the integrity and appearance of such fabrics and textiles. The deterioration of the integrity and appearance of the fabrics can manifest itself in several ways. The short fibers are discarded from the woven / knitted fabric / textile structures by the mechanical action of the laundry. Said discarded fibers can form lint or "pellets" which are visible on the surface of the fabrics and diminish the novel appearance of the fabric. In addition, repeated washing of fabrics and textiles, especially with laundry products containing bleach, can remove the colorant from fabrics and textiles and impart a faded, worn appearance as a result of decreased color intensity, and in several cases, as a result of changes in tints or shades of color. Due to the above, there is clearly a need to identify materials that can be added to the detergent laundry products that are associated with the fibers of fabrics and textiles washed using said detergent products and thus reducing or minimizing the tendency of the fabric / Washed textiles to deteriorate in appearance. Any such detergent product additive materials must, of course, be able to benefit the appearance and integrity of the fabric without unduly interfering with the ability of laundry detergents to perform their fabric cleaning function. The present invention relates to the use of cyclic amine-based oxidized polymer, oligomer or copolymer materials in laundry applications operating in said desired form.

E) Preparation of the detergent composition The detergent compositions according to the present invention may be in liquid, paste or granular form. Said compositions can be prepared by combining the essential and optional components in the necessary concentrations in any suitable order and by any conventional means. The granulated compositions, for example, they are generally made by the combination of the granular base ingredients, ie, 5 surfactants, detergency builders, water, etc., such as a suspension, a spray drying causing the suspension to result in a low level of residual moisture (5-12%). The remaining dry ingredients, for example, granules of the essential amino acid-based fabric treatment materials, can be mixed in the form of granulated powder with the spray-dried granules in a rotating mixing drum. Liquid ingredients, for example, solutions of fabric treatment materials based on essential amino acids, enzymes, binders and perfumes, can be sprayed into the resulting granules to form the finished detergent composition. The compositions granulated according to The present invention can also be in "compact form", that is, it can have a relatively higher density than conventional granular detergents, ie, from 550 to 950 g / l. In such a case, the granular detergent compositions according to the present invention will contain a low amount of "inorganic filler salt", compared to conventional granular detergents; Typical filler salts are the alkaline earth metal salts of sulfates and chlorides, typically sodium sulfate; "Compact" detergents typically comprise no more than 10% filler salt.

The liquid detergent compositions can be prepared by mixing the essential and optional ingredients in any desired order to provide the compounds containing components in the necessary concentrations. The liquid compositions according to the present invention may also be in "compact form", in which case, the liquid detergent compositions according to the present invention will contain a lower amount of water, compared to conventional liquid detergents. The addition of the polymeric, oligomeric or copolymer materials based on amino acids to the liquid detergent 10 or other aqueous compositions of this invention can be achieved by simple mixing in the liquid solutions to the fabric treatment materials based on desired amino acids.

F) Fabric laundry method The present invention also provides a method for fabric laundry in a form that imparts the fabric appearance benefits provided by the polymer, oligomer or copolymer materials based on amino acids used herein. Said method employs the contact of said fabrics with an aqueous wash solution formed of an amount Effective of the detergent compositions described above or formed of the individual components of said compositions. The contact of the fabrics with the washing solution will generally occur under agitating conditions, although the compositions of the present invention are also They can be used to form aqueous solutions of lathering without shaking for fabric cleaning and treatment. As described above, it is preferred that the wash solution has a pH of less than about 10.0, preferably having a pH of about 9.5 and more preferably having a pH of about 7.5.

The anion can also, but with less preference, carry a double charge, in which case Xw represents half of a group. The index m has a value of 1 to 3; the index n has a value of 1 to 4, preferably 2 or 3, more preferably 2. One embodiment of the present invention provides quartzized amines and amines having two or more different values for the n-per-molecule index, for example, a active softener prepared from the starting amine methyl (3-aminopropyl) (2-hydroxyethyl) amine. The most preferred softening actives according to the present invention have the formula: wherein the unit has the formula: Or l l? - O- C- R 1 is a fatty acyl portion. The fatty acyl portions suitable for use in the softening actives of the present invention are derived from triglyceride sources including tallow, vegetable oils and / or partially hydrogenated vegetable oils including among other things castor oil, safflower oil, peanut oil, sunflower oil, corn oil, soybean oil, pulp oil, wheat oil. Even more preferred are the diester quaternary ammonium compounds (DEQAs) wherein the m-index is equal to 2. The R1 units are typically mixtures of straight or branched chains of saturated aliphatic fatty acids and unsaturated. The formulator, depending on the desired physical and performance properties of the final fabric softening active, can select any of the aforementioned sources of fatty acyl portions, or alternatively, the formulator can mix the triglyceride sources for form a "usual mixture". However, those skilled in the fat and oil art will recognize that the fatty acyl composition may vary, as in the case of vegetable oil, from harvest to harvest, or from a variety of vegetable oil sources to a variety of oil source. vegetable. The DEQAs that are prepared using fatty substances derived from natural sources are preferred. A preferred embodiment of the invention provides softening actives comprising R1 units having at least about 5 3%, preferably about 5%, more preferably about 10%, more preferably about 15% Cp-C22 alkenyl, including polyalkenyl (polyunsaturated) units among other things oleic, linoleic, linolenic. For the purposes of the present invention the term "units The mixed fatty acid acyl "is defined as" a mixture of fatty acyl units comprising alkyl and alkenyl chains having from 10 to 22 carbon atoms including the carbonyl carbon atom, and in the case of the alkenyl chains, from one to three double bonds, preferably all double bonds in the cis configuration. "With respect to the R1 units of the In accordance with the present invention, it is preferred that at least a substantial percentage of the fatty acyl groups be unsaturated, for example, of about 25%, preferably from about 50% to about 70%, preferably to about 65%. The total level of fabric softening active containing polyunsaturated fatty acyl groups may be about 3%, preferably about 5%, more preferably about 10% to about 30%, preferably about 25%, more preferably about 18%. As stated hereinbefore, the cis and trans isomers may be used, preferably at a ratio of cis / trans of 1: 1, preferably at least 3: 1, and more preferably of about 4: 1 to about 50: 1, more preferably of about 20: 1, however, the minimum is 1: 1. The level of unsaturation contained in the tallow, resin or other fatty acyl unit chain can be measured by the iodide value (IV) of the corresponding fatty acid, which in the present case should preferably be in the range of 5 to 100. , distinguishing two categories of compounds, having an IV less than or greater than 25. In fact, the compounds have the formula: Sebum fatty acid derivatives, when the iodide value is from 5 to 25, preferably 15 to 20, it has been found that the weight ratio of cis / trans isomer greater than about 30/70, preferably greater than about 50/50 and more preferably greater than about 70/30 provides an optimum concentration character. For compounds of this type made from tallow fatty acids having an iodide value greater than 25, it has been found that the ratio of cis to trans isomers is less critical unless high concentrations are required. One or other preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises DEQAs, wherein the average iodide value for R1 is about 45.

The unit R1 suitable for use in the isotropic liquids of the present invention can be further characterized by the iodide value (IV) of the original fatty acid, said IV preferably being about 10, more preferably about 50, more preferably from about 70, to a value of about 140, preferably to about 130, more preferably to about 115. However, formulators, depending on the embodiment of the present invention they select to execute, may wish to add an amount of fatty acyl units having iodide values outside the scale listed hereinabove. For example, "hardened storage" (IV less than or equal to about 10) can be combined with the source of the fatty acid mixture to adjust the properties of the final softening active. A preferred source of fatty acyl units, especially fatty acyl units having branching, for example, "Guerbet branching", methyl and ethyl units, etc; substituted in the primary alkyl chain, synthetic sources of fatty acyl units are also suitable. For example, can the formulator add one or more fatty acyl units that have a methyl branch in a "non-naturally occurring" position, for example, in the third carbon of a C-chain? . What is intended in the present for the term "does not occur naturally" is that "acyl units that are not found in significant quantities (greater than about 0.1%) are the common oils fats that serve as supplies for the source of triglycerides described herein. " If the desired branched chain fatty acyl unit is unavoidable from readily available natural supplies, therefore, the synthetic fatty acid can be suitably mixed with other synthetic materials, or with other sources derived from natural triglyceride of acyl units.
