Definitions
- Cationic surfactant-based products such as anti-bacterial surface cleaners, fabric softeners, skin conditioners, hair conditioners, conditioning shampoos, among others, are often difficult to thicken with conventional thickeners.
- Many common thickeners such as xanthan gum, CMC (carboxymethylcellulose), carrageenan, and polyacrylates are anionic and therefore, can react with the cationic surfactants and cause precipitation of the cationic and thickener or reduce the efficacy of the cationic surfactant.
- Non-ionic thickeners such as hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC), hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), and scleroglucan can provide viscosity in cationic systems, however in the case of HEC and HPMC, very little suspension properties are imparted to the fluid. In the case of scleroglucan, good suspension is often achieved but cost-in use can be prohibitive.
- Cationic thickeners such as polyquaternium 10 (cationic HEC) and cationic guar provide thickening in cationic systems but not suspension. Some forms of polyacrylates are effective at thickening cationic systems but they can be limited by pH, require high concentrations, have high cost-in-use, and often have narrow limits of compatibility with the cationic surfactants.
- the suspension of particles is often desired and such particulates might include abrasive agents, aesthetic agents (decorative beads, pearlescents, air bubbles, fragrance beads, etc.) or active ingredients (insoluble enzymes, encapsulated actives such as moisturizers, zeolites, exfoliating agents (e.g. alpha hydroxyl and/or glycolic acids or polyethylene beads), vitamins (e.g. vitamin E)) etc. or both.
- microfibrous cellulose MFC
- bacterially derived or otherwise can be used to provide suspension of particulates in cationic systems. It was also discovered that the MFC may be used for this purpose with or without co-agents. When bacterially-derived microfibrous cellulose is utilized, cellular debris can be eliminated which can also result in transparent solutions at typical use levels with some formulations.
- microfibrous cellulose is non-ionic and is therefore unaffected by the cationic surfactants and maintains good suspension in these systems.
- Microfibrous cellulose is unique in its ability to function in these systems in part because it is dispersed rather than solubilized, thereby allowing its use in a wide range of pH and cationic surfactant concentrations without concern of precipitating the polymer due to “salting out” or other effects related to the competition for water.
- Cationic surfactant systems comprising microfibrous cellulose are described. “Cationic systems” is intended to include but is not limited to cationic surfactants used in industrial and personal care applications for anti-microbial, fabric softening, and skin and hair conditioning.
- Microfibrous cellulose includes MFC prepared by microbial fermentation or MFC prepared by mechanically disrupting/altering cereal, wood, or cotton-based cellulose fibers. When bacterially-derived microfibrous cellulose is utilized, cellular debris can be eliminated which results in transparent solutions at typical use levels.
- the present invention utilizes MFC to provide suspension of particulates in formulations containing cationic surfactants.
- the cationic surfactant concentration of these systems ranges from about 0.1% to about 50% (w/w active surfactant) wherein the specific concentration is product dependent.
- Anti-bacterial household surface cleaners typically contain about 0.1% to about 4% (w/w) active cationic surfactant
- hair and skin conditioners typically contain about 0.5% to about 3% cationic surfactants
- fabric softeners typically contain about 3% to about 15% (w/w) cationic surfactant (with 15% being a “concentrated” fabric softener product).
- Concentrates of the cationic surfactants can also be thickened for later dilution into formulated products. These concentrates can contain greater than 50% active cationic surfactant.
- the MFC is present at concentrations from about 0.05% to about 1.0%, but the concentration will depend on the desired product. For example, while about 0.06% (w/w) MFC is preferred for suspending small alginate beads in a household cleaner containing 4% of the anti-bacterial cationic surfactant, benzylalkonium chloride, about 0.075% is preferred for suspending air bubbles in fabric softener.
- Particulates to be suspended could include abrasive agents, aesthetic agents (decorative beads, pearlescents, air bubbles, fragrance beads, etc.) or active ingredients (insoluble enzymes, encapsulated actives such as moisturizers, zeolites, exfoliating agents (e.g. alpha hydroxyl and/or glycolic acids or polyethylene beads), vitamins (e.g. vitamin E) etc. or both.

- the invention is also directed to the use of co-agents and/or co-processing agents such as cationic HEC, cationic guar and/or guar gum with the microfibrous cellulose in the surfactant systems described herein.
- Microfibrous cellulose blends are microfibrous cellulose products which contain co-agents. Four blends are described MFC, cationic guar, and guar in a ratio of 6:3:1, MFC and cationic guar in a ratio of 1:1 and 3:2 and MFC and cationic HEC in a ratio of 1:1. These blends allow MFC to be prepared as a dry product which can be “activated” with high shear or high extensional mixing into water or other water-based solutions.
- Activation occurs when the MFC blends are added to water and the co-agents/co-processing agents are hydrated. After the hydration of the co-agents/co-processing agents, high shear is generally then needed to effectively disperse the microfibrous cellulose fibers to produce a three-dimensional functional network that exhibits a true yield point.
