Definitions

  • This invention relates to" non-cakingsolid compositions containing the monopersulfates of alkali metaL.
  • the adjuvant may be supplied to'the dry monopersulfate composition in anyisuitablemanner. Mixing dry powders of the monopersulfate and the adjuvant followed. by tumbling the product in a rotating mixer is quite satisfactory. Mixing the adjuvant with a slurryor solution containing dissolved monopersulfates is less satis- Solid oxidizing agents based on'monopersulfates have recently become available. "The monopersulfates arethe salts of monopersulfuric or Caros acid, H 80 m WhlCh one of the hydrogen atoms has been replaced. The most common representatives of the group are NaHSO and elfective oxidizing agents, they are somewhat hygroscopic.
  • Another object is provision of monopersulfate compositions which are free-flowing in nature.
  • the anti-caking agent of this invention is eiiective not.
  • KHSO :KHSO :K SO is generally chosen as about 2:1:1 but other ratios can be "employed as shown by copending application S.N. 549,629, filed November '29, 1955.
  • the acid compositions are formed to possess roughly'between aboutland 10% by weight of active oxygen and about 10-90% by weightof the bis-ulfate.
  • alkaline compounds such as the water-soluble members of, the group consisting of alkali metal phosphates, silicates, and carbonatesa're frequently added to counteracttheacidily of the monopersulfates in aqueous solution.
  • Sodium or potassium tripolyphosphates, orthophosphates, metaphosphates, pyrophosphates, and other alkaline phosphates, metaand orthosilicates, and carbonates, bicarbonates and sesquicarbonates are representative of these alkaline diluents but others may also be used.
  • I Borax for example may be included in the mixture.
  • gen by weight may be made up from 42% sodium carbonate, 11%' sodium tripolyphosphate, 1% magnesium inaccordance with'this invention by the incorporationin the monopersulfate-containing mixtures of certain alka ine compounds of magnesium and sodium. These compounds may be divided into two groups. The first group co n-1 prises alkaline inorganic magnesium compounds," e.g'., magnesium I oxide and theclosely' related magnesium hydroxide andmagnesiuincarbonate. Theisecond group comprises alkaline magnesium and sodium salts of monoand dibasic organic acids, fatty acids in particular. The acids should possess betweenzS and. 20 carbon .1 atoms.
  • magnesium stearate and oleate and sodium'adipate,' stearate and sebacate are magnesium stearate and oleate and sodium'adipate,' stearate and sebacate.
  • Magnesium oxide and the closely related compounds are greatly preferred since-they alone of those mentioned are odorless. They are, furthermore, more etfective as anti-caking aids.
  • the quantity of adjuvants needed is not sharply critical and may be referred to as an efiective anti-caking amoun Generally this amount is between about'0.5 and 10% by weight of the weight of the monopersulfate composition to which it is added. Between about 0.5
  • alkaline diluents are discussed at length in copending application 563,177, filed of common date herewith. In the absence of an anti-caking agent, monopersulfate compositions containing these alkaline diluents may cake ifTthe active oxygen content is as low as about 2or 3%.
  • the adjuvants of this invention are primarily of value in compositions containingthefmonopersulfate of an alkali metal. They may, however, be used with other monopersulfates as well.
  • f k li metal salts, those of sodium,--'p'otassium and ammonium are themost impor'-" tant.
  • alkali metals in-' cludes ammonium.
  • EXAMPLE 1 Separate test samples were made up from sulfate mixtures containing about 5% of active oxygen and possessing initially the KHSO :K SO :KHSO mole ratio of from onion skin paper and sealed at one end toa heightv of 1 inch. The samples were packed by tapping the cylinders, held within a glass vial, times. The packed cylinders were placed in a desiccator held at a relative humidity of 90% and kept there for 24 hours at 40 C. The cylinders were removed from the desiccator, dried in an oven at 40 C. for 4 hours and then allowed to stand at room temperature for 1 hour at ambient humidity (ca. 20-30% The samples were rated visually as follows:
  • Example 2 The procedure of Example 1 was essentially repeated except that only 3% of the anti-caking agent was employed in the samples. Results are shown in Table H.
  • Table Il.Sampl,es containing 3% of, adjnvant Anti-caking agent Rating Magnesium oxide 1 Magnesium stear 1 Sodium nleate I 3 Sodium adipate+10% SLS 1 Sodium sebacate+10% SLS 1 Stearic acid 3 Star h '3 Control (no additive) 5 SLS is sodium lauryl sulfate, a wettirigagentdptionally.
  • a free-flowing solid composition containing, based upon the weight of said composition, an alkali metal monopersulfatein an amount equivalent to at least 1% active oxygen and an amount cfiective to inhibit caking of said composition but not exceeding 10% of an anticaking agent admixed therewith, said anti-caking agent being from the group consisting of the oxide, the hydroxide and the carbonate of magnesium and the magnesium and sodium salts of stearic acid, oleic acid, adipic acid and sebacic acid.
