Definitions

  • v ing pads is that the organic detergent present is soap which is unprotected against water hardness. When such a pad is used in hard Water the Water-soluble soap in the pad reacts with the salts constituting the hardness and forms Water-insoluble soap.
  • This insoluble soap generally termed curd or scum, not only is ineffective as a detergent, thereby reducing the efficiency of the water-soluble soap by necessitating the use of a greater amount for an eicient Washing concentration, but also contributes to other undesirable results by its presence.
  • the water-insoluble soap is formed in situ throughout the steel wool mass of the pad, thereby making its removal extremely diilicult if not impossible by the usual washing means. After the pad is dry, the water-insoluble soap may become rancid and in that manner impart an unpleasant odor to the pad. It may also render the pad unsightly by contributing a yellowish cast thereto.
  • a further disadvantage of present-day scouring pads is the rapid rate at which the pad becomes useless as a scouring means because ofthe rusting of the steel wool,
  • Stili another disadvantage of present-day steel wool scouring pads is the unattractive appearance which results from the method by which the steel wood and detergent composition are combined to form the pad.
  • the present invention makes it possible to overcome all or selected ones of these disadvantages of the present-day scouring pads by providing a scouring pad of novel structure which is advantageous regardless of the detergent composition used therein; by providing a new detergent paste composition which gives to a pad of any structure a longer life and superior performance by reason of its controlled rate of solubility and detersive and rust-inhibiting properties, but which is particularly advantageous in a pad of the present novel structure; and by providing a method of forming scouring pads wherein the detergent and steel wool are more easily and simply combined to form the pad.
  • the invention is concerned with a durable scouring pad of novel structure, preferably containing a new permanently plastic detergent paste-filler and the ne paste-filler composition per se.
  • a scouring pad comprises a ribbon of matter scouring wool furled about a permanently plastic detergent paste-filler.
  • the scouring pad of the present invention comprises a ribbon of matted scouring wool spirally surrounding a detergent paste-filler having certain herein after defined physical properties.
  • a specific paste composition possessing these physical properties as Well as del arent sirable foaming and rust-inhibiting characteristics also lforms part of the'instant invention.
  • this composition consists essentially of water-soluble non-soap organic surface-active material and an inorganic alkaline buffer salt.
  • the surface-active component is a mixture of a water-soluble non-soap organic detergent and a uid water-soluble non-ionic surface-active plasticizer.
  • a new method of forming the presentl scouring pads comprises applying a substantially non-aqueous detergent paste to the surface of a ribbon of scouring wool. More particularly it comprises the steps of applying a suitable plastic detergent paste, as defined herein, to the surface of a ribbon of scouring wool, furling said ribbon until the entire length of said ribbon is completely furled, and pressing the exposed end of said ribbon against the body of the resulting pad. In furling, the strip is folded over repeatedly along its length or rolled with the paste-carrying side interiorly disposed to form a pad or roll of desired size, which may then be attened or further shaped or stamped, as desired.
  • the surface to which the Ypaste is applied may amount to merely a small portion of one Vend of one face of the strip, or may comprise one Whole face thereof, and ofcourse the strips referred to hereinabove may constitute individual strips or be segments of ⁇ a much longer strip which is cut into units during processingo o Y
  • the detergent paste is a crucial element of the instant invention. It is essential to the present novel pads and to their preparation that the detergent paste possess certain .physical properties.
  • the paste must be plastic and mustmati so permanently, i.e., in storage or until the pad is used. It must be Water-soluble so as to dissolve during use. It must not become brittle during the life of the pad so as to break into particulate form during use.
  • the detergent paste must be a plastic deformable mass at room temperature, at the temperature of use, and at the temperaure of application to the steel wool.
  • the plastic detergent paste which is applied to the strip of steel wool Vmust be suciently deformable at the temperature of application that it spreads easily on the strip of steel wool without, however, running through the mass of wool.
  • a convenient and recognized means of measuring th consistency of plastic, pastymaterials is the American Society for Testing Materials Standard Method of Test yfor Cone Penetration of Lubricating Grease,l A.S.T.M.

  • the presence of :moreV than 'about 65 %Y of a fluid plasticizer normally results in the'f'ormation of pastos which are too-thin land tend to separate.
  • Suitable anionic ⁇ 'detergents are well knownV V and include alkali metal and alkaline earth salts of vari- 'ous organiczsulfuric reaction products such as the higher alkyl aryl sulfonates, eg., the sulfonates of alkylated Abenyzene, toluene, cresohnaphthalcne and the likeY in which the t "alkyl group contains from about 10,-to 18 carbon atoms, -for example, sodium pentadecyl benzene sulfonate and sodium tetrapropylene benzene sulfonateyhigher fatty alcohol "sulfates such "as potassium lauryl sulfate and the lithium salt of sulfated alcoholsV derived from coconut oil by reduction; sulfated higher fatty acid monoglycerfides such as the

  • nonyl phenol condensed with from 6 to 16 mols of ethylene oxide may also be used in the present pastes provided they are mixed with sufficient buffer salt, starch or'similar solid material to absorb the liquid and in essence, convert the detergent'to a normally solid form.

  • One method of preparation of theV present novel paste consists of vfirst mixing the detergent and the plasticizer until a uniform mix is obtained.

The resulting mixture'is stirred, usually at an 'elevated ltemperature such as about 170 F., and when homogeneous is applied gents'of the ethylene oxide condensate type, e.g., ethyl- K ene Oxidecondensates of fatty acids, and fatty Vacid amideswhich typically contain from l0 to 18 carbon atoms in the fatty portion thereof.

  • the foregoing ethylene oxide condensates are vnormally condensed with from 6 Vto 16 mols of ethylene oxide.
  • suitable plasticizers are the liquid or pasty Water-'soluble ethylene Voxidecondensates of Water i'nsoluble (molecular weight 900 to 3400) polypropylenek Vglycols vr(Pluronics) These liquid or pasty surface active plasticizers have been found to depress the rate of solu- "bility of the instant compositions inwater, thus extend- Y ing the Alife of the present novel pads.

Furthermore the instant pastes do not require heating and drying in thecourse of manufacture, as contrasted toV pads which employ aqueous compositions as impregnating agents.
