PEROXIDE-ESTER BLEACI-DNG PROCESS AND COMPOSITIONS Thomas Daniel Davies, Bebington, George Charlesworth Hampson, Neston, Wirral, Francis Robert Maxwell McDonnell, Bebington, and Gert Schmerlaib, Wallasey, England, assignors to Lever Brothers Company, New York, N.Y., a corporation of Maine No Drawing. Filed July 25, 1956, Ser. No. 599,934
Claims priority, application Great Britain July 27, 1955 18 Claims. (Cl. 8-111) This invention relates to processes of bleaching and to bleaching compositions; in particular it relates to processes and to compositions suitable for removing stains from textile materials.
Many detergent compositions contain an inorganic persalt such as sodium perborate or percarbonate to provide bleaching, properties. These per-salts provide a satisfactory bleach when the detergent is used at the boil, but at lower temperatures their action is rather slow. This disadvantage is becoming important with the growing use of washing machines which operate at a temperature of, for example, 50-60 C. It is an object of the present invention to provide a more efiective bleach in the normal washing period at this temperature than is obtained with the per-salt alone.
Processes and compositions according to the invention also find application in the textile industry and in commercial laundering.
It has been found that improvements in bleaching can be obtained by the use of an aqueous solution containing hydrogen peroxide and an organic carboxylic ester, as characterized below.
It has further been found that improved bleaching compositions can be provided which contain an inorganic per-salt together with an organic carboxylic ester having one or more ester groupings in the molecule. The esters which are suitable for use according to the invention are characterized by the following per-acid formation test:
To a solution at 60 C. containing the following in 1,000 ml. of distilled water:
2.5 gms. Na P' O .10H O 0.615 gms. NaBO .H O .3I-I O (at 10.4% available oxygen) 0.5 gm. sodium tetra propylene benzene sulphonate is added an amount of ester, in equimolecular ratio to the available oxygen. Water-soluble esters and those which are liquid at 60 C. are added direct to the aqueous solution; other esters should be dissolved in 10 ml. ethyl alcohol, before addition, the volume of distilled water being reduced in such cases to 990 ml. The mixture is mechanically stirred by means of a glass stirrer at 600 revs. per minute and maintained at 60 C. After 5 minutes a 100 ml. aliquot is withdrawn and immediately pipetted on to a mixture of 250 gm. of cracked ice and 15 m1. of glacial acetic acid. 0.4 gm. of potassium iodide is then added. The liberated iodine is immediately titrated with 0.1 N sodium thiosulphate, using starch as indicator, until the first disappearance of the blue color. Esters, which give a titre of 1.5 ml. or more in this per-acid formation test, may be used in bleaching compositions and processes according to the invention. I
According to the present invention there is provided a bleaching process in which an aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide and an organic carboxylic ester which gives a titre of not less than 1.5 m1. of 0.1 N Na S O in the test defined above and which therefore form per-acids at an effective level, is used.
The present invention further provides a bleaching composition which contains an inorganic per-salt together with an organic carboxylic ester which gives a titre of not less than 1.5 ml. of 0.1 N Na S O in the per-acid formation test defined above.
Esters, which give a titre of not less than 1.5 ml. 0.1 N P121 8 0 in the test defined above and hence may be used according to the invention, include compounds within the class where R attached to the oxygen atom of the ester link, exerts an electron-attracting effect; and R may be an alkyl, aryl or alicyclic radical or a substituted alkyl, aryl or alicyclic radical.
The esters should not yield easily oxidizable hydrolysis products such as polyhydric phenols, unsubstituted lower aliphatic aldehydes, and alpha and beta diketones.
Examples of esters within the scope of the invention, that is which give a titre of at least 1.5 ml. 0.1 N Na S O in the per-acid formation test defined above, are found in the following classes:
(a) Esters of phenols and substituted phenolsexamples are:
Phenyl acetate Phenyl benzoate Phenyl p-nitrobenzoate Phenyl cinnamate p-Cresyl acetate o-Nitro phenyl benzoate o-Carboxy phenyl benzoate o-Carboxy phenyl acetate p-Carboxy phenyl acetate p-Phenyl phenyl acetate Phenyl furoate p-Bromophenyl benzoate Benzoyl ester of commercial potassium (or sodium) phenol sulphonate Phenyl nicotinate (b) Esters of monohydric aliphatic alcohols containing substituents which exert an electron-attracting influence, such as trichloroethyL-an example is: Trichloroethyl acetate (c) Esters of polyhydric aliphatic alcohols containing several ester groups situated on adjacent carbon atoms, particularly:
Mannitol hexa acetate Sorbitol hexa acetate (d) Esters of monoand disaccharides containing preferably 3 or more ester groups on adjacent carbon atomsexamples are:
Fructose penta acetate Glucose penta acetate Glucose tetra acetate Sucrose octa acetate (e) Esters containing 2 ester groups attached to the same carbon atom such as may be obtained by acylation of aldehydes-examples are:
p-Nitrobenzaldehyde diacetate Glycollic aldehyde triacetate Benzaldehyde diacetate Furfural diacetate Chloral diacetate (f) Esters of the enolic forms of ketones, preferably not alphaand beta-diketones or other readily oxidizable ketones-examples are:
A-cyclohexenyl acetate Isopropenyl acetate (g) Esters of N-substituted derivatives of hydroxylamine-an example is: Acetyl aceto-hydroxamic acid Solid esters lend themselves readily to incorporation in compositions in solid form. Water-insoluble solid esters should, however, be in a finely-divided state in a solid composition.
Hydrogen peroxide cannot, of course, be included in a solid composition, and bleaching solutions prepared from hydrogen peroxide should be prepared as-required for.
use.
The hydrogen peroxide may be added to the solution as such, or may be liberated in situ from a per-salt.
By inorganic per-salt is meant a salt which will give rise to hydrogen peroxide in aqueous solution. Suitable compounds are alkali metal perborates, percarbonates, perpyrophosphates and persilicates. These are not true per-salts in the strict chemical sense but are believed to contain hydrogen peroxide of crystallization, which is liberated in aqueous solution.
The invention can be applied to bleaching baths such as are used for treating textiles, to wash liquors, such as are used in commercial laundering and to solid bleaching com-positions. Solid bleaching compositions may contain, in addition to a per-salt and an ester according to the invention, inert salts, alkaline agents and a small proportion of detergent. The invention may further be applied to detergent compositions, which will contain an organic detergent, which may be soap or an organic soapless detergent. Suitable organic soapless detergents are the alkyl aryl sulphonates, alkyl sulphates and the salts of esters or ethers of isethionic acid.
Compositions according to the invention should preferably contain one or more alkaline substances, in amounts such that similar compositions not containing esters would give a pH value within the range 9-1l when dissolved at the desired bleaching concentration. Most common detergent compositions contain alkaline material suificient for this purpose. Suitable alkaline materials are, for instance, soap, alkali metal carbonates, phosphates (including orthophosphates, and water-soluble condensed phosphates, such as tripolyphosphates, and pyrophosphates) and silicates.
When the invention is applied to bleaching or wash liquors, alkali suflicient to give an. initial pH of 9l1 is preferably present in the bleaching or wash liquor before addition of the ester.
Compositions according to the invention may contain any of the conventional adjuncts present in detergent compositions. There may be mentioned, supplementary builders, inert and organic materials such as alkali metal sulphates, chlorides, carboxy methyl cellulose and fluorescent agents.
Compositions according to the invention must not contain water in an amount sufficient to permit appreciable chemical reaction between the components prior to use.
The proportions of per-salt and ester which may be present in compositions according to the invention will depend on the time and temperature of bleaching, the degree of bleaching required, the concentration of the bleaching solution and the individual ester and per-salt used. Used most conditions, these proportions should be such as to give a per-salt concentration in solution equivalent to 0.001 to 0.1% available oxygen.
Having regard to these factors, bleaching effects may be obtained with compositions according to the invention containing widely varying ratios of per-salt to ester. It is convenient to measure the activity of the per-salt in terms of available oxygen. Generally, ratios of from A to 2 and particularly from /2 to 1 /2 molecules of ester per one atom of available oxygen are preferred. (In converting such ratios'to ratios by weight, account must be taken of the molecular weight of the ester and the available oxygen content of the per-salt used.) In particular, it is preferred to use approximately chemically equivalent amounts of ester and per-salt. In determining 4 such chemically equivalent amounts it should be realized that with-esters containing more than one ester grouping, not all the ester groups will necessarily react with the available oxygen of the per-salt. Thus, with aldehyde diacetates, only one group is believed to react, with glucose tetraacetate one group reacts and with glucose pentaacetate two groups react. H
When solutions are used which areobtained by adding hydrogen peroxide and an ester according to the invention to an alkaline bath, the preferred weight ratio is from 2 to 15 parts of ester to 1 part of hydrogen peroxide depending onthe molecular weight of the ester used.
When compositions according to the invention are to be used primarily as a leach, for instance, foraddition to alkalinev textile bleaching baths or. wash liquors, such compositions may contain any proportion of ester and per-salt, these components being preferably present in the ratio /1 to 2 molecules of ester per one atom of available oxygen, preferably /2 to 1 /2 molecules per one atom of available oxygen. Thus, by way of example, a composition may contain 33% of per-salt having 10% available oxygen and 67% of the benzoyl ester of commercial sodium phenol sulphonate. Using per-salt having 15% available oxygen, the composition may contain 25 of the per-salt and 75% of the benzoyl ester of commercial sodium phenol sulphonate.
When anorganic detergent is present in compositions according to the invention, improvements in bleaching can be'obt'ained at normal washing concentrations. Thus, for example, using a detergent composition according to the invention at a concentration of 1% in aqueous solution, improvements may be obtained if amounts of as little as 1% ofper-salt and 2% of ester by weight of the composition are present. In such compositions, however, the amount of per salt taken should provide at least 0.1% available oxygen based on the composition. Generally, detergent compositions will contain from about 10 to'about 50% by weight of organic detergent. The mixed ester/per-salt content may be as high as 70% by weight provided that these components are taken in ratios A to 2', preferably /2 to 1 /2, molecules of ester per one atom of available oxygen. Effective proportions of ester and per-salt in detergent compositions will in general lie within the range from 2 to 30% of ester and 1 to 15% of per-salt by weight of the composition.
Best results in bleaching according to the invention are obtained under conditions of effective agitation such as exist, for instance, in a washingmachine.
The following examples illustrate the invention:

It was then thoroughly rinsed, dried and cut into test-pieces whose percent reflectances were measured in a Hunter refiectometer using the blue-filter. The percent reflectance of the test pieces was measured again after bleaching. tained' was'expressed as the difference in the two percent reflect nce readings on each test-piece.
A piece of tea-stained cotton clotlrwas immersed in the'blea'ch'bath, at a cloth to liquor ratio of 1 to 20, and stirred for 15 minutes; the temperature being maintained at 6 0- f2 C. After this time'the cloth was rinsed three times, ironed and its percent reflectancemeasuredl The increase in percent reflectance was 22.7. In a similar control experiment carried out in the absence of chloral The bleach ob-- diacet-ate the increase in percent reflectance was only 13.7.

The cloth was then rinsed three times, ironed and its percent reflectance measured. The increase in percent reflectance was 19.0. In a control experiment without glucose penta-acetate the increase in percent reflectance was only 13.2.

50.4% sodium soap 16.0% sodium carbonate 2.8% anhydrous neutral sodium silicate 30.8% Water was added 8.0 parts of sodium perborate tetrahydrate and 15.6 parts of the benzoyl ester of commercial sodium phenol sulphonate and the whole was mixed.

To this solution was added a tea-stained cloth at a cloth to liquor ratio of 1 to and stirred for 15 minutes, the temperature being maintained at 60i-2 C. The cloth was then rinsed 3 times, ironed and its percent reflectance measured. The increase in percent reflectance was 20.0. In a control test in the absence of ester the increase in percent reflectance was only 14.3.
