Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of producing detergents which consist of a mixture of alkali triphosphate with other components, which in part have detergent properties, and are characterized by the fact that for their production the alkali triphosphate is introduced into an aqueous solution or suspension of all other components or at least a part thereof, and the detergent batch treated in known manner with heat.
- Detergents of this type have been known for a long time, but their preparation afforded difficulties insofar as in the case of addition of alkali triphosphate which is free of water to a greater or lesser extent to the detergent batch-also called s1urry--the phosphate withdraws the water from the latter so as thereby to become hydrated in faster or slower manner to Na P O .6H O.
- a quantity of 0.1 to 2%, and preferably 0.2 to 1% of calcium ions, calculated on the triphosphate employed, is sufficient to influence the viscosity of the detergent in the desired manner.
- the calcium compound is added to the alkali triphosphate, and especially in dry form.
- the calcium-combining power of a good sodium tripolyphosphate is 11.5 grams ca per grams Na P O 100 grams of triphosphate therefore combine with 11.5 grams of Ca. If for instance 0.27% Ca in the form of salts, calculated on the amount of triphosphate, is added to the slurry, the triphosphate loses 2.3% of its original calcium-combining power This slight decrease is not as important as the disadvantages involved in the measures previously carried out to reach the same goal.
- Ca(OH) is preferably employed since this product is of low price and can be obtained free of iron; it does not absorb water upon lengthy storage and does not introduce foreign anions.
- other compounds of calcium are also suitable, such as calcium sulfate or any desired mixtures of Ca salts.
- the direct measurement of the viscosity of a slurry containing tripolyphos-phate can be carried out by means of a plastograph of the Brabender Company. With this plastograph, the action of a tripolyphosphate on the viscosity of the slurry can be directly measured and recorded as a function of time for a given slurry and constant temperature.
- the moments of rotation produced on the rotatably supported motor housing by the kneading resistance are transferred to a scale and from there to a recorder.
- Example 5 The same slurry was used as in Example 1, at a tem- There was used a detergent of the following compoperature of 80 C. sition:
- Example 4 There was used a slurry of the following p si 65 There was used a slurry of the following composition:
- the method of claim 1 wherein the alkali metal tripolyphosphate and the calcium salt are mixed initially is selected from the group consisting of Ca(OH) and 03.80421'120.
