- polyphosphateparaxylenesulfonate sodium toluenesulfonate, sodium aryl sulfonate compositions having synergistic cleansing ethylbenzenesulfonate, and sodium isopropylbenzenesulproperties. fonate.
- a layer of vacuum cleaner ever, it has 11m bun generally IecOgniZcd that these dust (screened through 80 mesh to remove larger conventional hydrotropes also possess detergent properties since compositions containing polyphosphates and short chain alkyl aryl sulfonates have always contained synthetic detergents to provide suitable detergent activity to the formulations. Specifically, it has not been recognized that products containing a polyphosphate and these hydrotropic agents are particularly efiicacious in cleaning hard surfaces such as tiles and other coverings for floors, walls and the like.
- Another object is to take advantage of the discovery that short chain alkyl aryl sulfonates contribute significantly to the detersive properties of formulations containing complex inorganic polyphosphates.
- Still another object of the invention is to provide a means for efficiently cleansing hard surfaces.
- the method of washing consisted of dipping a 3 inches x 4 inches swatch of new clean white terry cloth into the detergent solution, squeezing excess liquid from the fabric and rubbing each soiled area in a standard manner for 30 seconds. The loosened soil-detergent mixture was then wiped from the surface with a new clean 5 inches x 9 inches Wipette (an absorbent cellulose napkin).
- TKPP designates tetrapotassium pyrophosphate.
- the invention contain from about 40% to about 85% of at least one water-soluble salt of a polyphosphate and from Cleanness g Quarter ashed about 15% to about 60% of at least one water-soluble arylsulfonate. The proportions are based on dry mixultanate Series tures of these twoingredients.
- the polyphosphates used s gig: g gg in these compositions include tetrapotassium and tetrao e ggg sodium pyrophosphate, sodium and potassium tripolyphosphates and mixtures of these ingredients.
- the 5141; EAR which can be used include the alkali metal and 3 2 1 4 ammonium salts of benzene sulfonate, ortho-, meta-, and Sodium meta-xylenewb ionate 3 2 1 4 para-xylene sulfonate and mixtures of these isomers, pgmssium pmqylenesul- 2 2V 1 4 onate.
- optical dyes may be added.
- EXAMPLE 1 NOTE l.A ranking of is given to indicate the median when two detergents are tied for two adjacent ranks. Thus, a ranking of "28/ indicates that a tie occurred for 2 and 3 ranks and, l indicates gist a Se occurred for 1" and 2 ranks, i.e., "cleanest” and "next to eanes It was necessary to warm the sodium ortho-xylene-sulfonate solution, and the solution of the sodium orthoxylenesulfonate-TKPP mixture to melt crystals before use.
- EXAMPLE 2 The following results were obtained using mixtures of tetrapotassium pyrophosphate (TKPP) and commercial sodium xylenesulfonate (SXS) for cleaning a standard soiled wall surface.
- TKPP tetrapotassium pyrophosphate
- SXS commercial sodium xylenesulfonate
- Five solutions of tetrapotassium pyrophosphate of varying concentrations were each used in combination with various concentrations of the sulfonate.
- Various percentage concentrations of tetrapotassium pyrophosphate in water solutions namely: 22.5%, 21.0%, 18.0% and were each tested with 8.0%, 6.9%, 4.6% and 0% of sodium xylenesulfonate.
- 0% of either tetrapotassium pyrophosphate or sulfonate was considered a concentration level of that component.
- the surface was evenly soiled by application of a mixture of screened vacuum cleaner dust, oildag (colloidal graphite and petroleum oil) and cooking fat (bacon grease).
- An ordinary 9 inch paint roller was used in applying the soil evenly.
- the application of soil was adjusted to bring the soiled reflectance to a level of 17% on the Hunter reflectometer equipped with a green filter.
- the Hunter reflectometer is standardized so that the reflectance of a magnesium oxide block is 100% (green filter). For each run this test panel was divided into fifths, lengthwise, making five equal-sized rectangular test areas.
- the washing scheme was as follows:
- test area 9.6 inches x 2 feet was cut from the larger 2 feet x 4 feet panel of Walltex used for each run.
- the resultant smaller swatch was easier to handle during the reflectance determinations on the Gardner color difference meter.
- Each cleaned area was read four times along the longer central axis. Since there were four replicates for each 4 detergent, the reflectances shown in Table H are the averages of 16 readings for each detergent mixture.
- EXAMPLE 3 Additional tests were conducted using the same procedure as described in Example 2 employing a 24% concentration of TKPP and a 13.8% concentration of SXS so that combining equal weights of the TKPP solution with the SXS solution gave a mixture containing 12% TKPP and 6.9% SXS. The following reflectances were observed.
- Example 2 Each soiled panel was divided into 5 test areas, as described in Example 2. The test solutions were used in a random fashion until four replicate washings had been made with each mixture. The standardized washing Percent Sodium Xylene Sultonate Comm. Grade.
- EXAMPLE 6 Further tests were performed on a series of mixtures to determine their eflFectiveness in cleaning hard surfaces. The products were evaluated as described in Example 2 by washing a Walltex board soiled in a standard manner. The reflectance of each swatch of the wall covering was measured on the Gardner color dififerencc meter.
- compositions containing the polyphosphate and sulfonate of the invention can be marketed as dry powders and the ultimate consumer may add water before using if desired.
- Additives which do not materially alter the beneficial characteristics of the mixtures of this invention may be incorporated as shown in the above table.
- the amount of the additives should not exceed about 45% based on the weight of the dry ingredients.
- up to about 3% of a germicide and 3% of sodium silicate solids can be presem, as well as a maximum of about 10% of a chlorinereleasing bleaching agent.
- Other inert ingredients up to the 45% maximum can be added.
- Walltex refers to a coated cotton fabric waterproof wall covering which may be applied with paste in much the same manner as wall paper.

A layer of vacuum cleaner ever, it has 11m bun generally IecOgniZcd that these dust (screened through 80 mesh to remove larger conventional hydrotropes also possess detergent properties since compositions containing polyphosphates and short chain alkyl aryl sulfonates have always contained synthetic detergents to provide suitable detergent activity to the formulations. Specifically, it has not been recognized that products containing a polyphosphate and these hydrotropic agents are particularly efiicacious in cleaning hard surfaces such as tiles and other coverings for floors, walls and the like.
It is an object of this invention to provide detergent compositions having synergistic cleansing characteristics.
Another object is to take advantage of the discovery that short chain alkyl aryl sulfonates contribute significantly to the detersive properties of formulations containing complex inorganic polyphosphates.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a means for efficiently cleansing hard surfaces.
It has now been found that certain sulfonates conventionally used as hydrotropes have enhanced tolerance for condensed phosphates and that such polyphosphatesulfonate compositions exhibit synergistic properties in cleaning hard surfaces such as painted walls, floor tile and the like.
The polyphosphate-sulfonate mixtures according to this particles) was rubbed evenly over the surface with a cloth. Any excess loose dust was shaken from the tile, and the area now soiled with adhering dust was covered with three successive layers of liquid floor wax (this operation simulated waxing a normally solid floor). Each layer of wax was allowed to dry in air before the next layer was applied.
Washing.The method of washing consisted of dipping a 3 inches x 4 inches swatch of new clean white terry cloth into the detergent solution, squeezing excess liquid from the fabric and rubbing each soiled area in a standard manner for 30 seconds. The loosened soil-detergent mixture was then wiped from the surface with a new clean 5 inches x 9 inches Wipette (an absorbent cellulose napkin).
Grading and ranking.The quarters of each tile were compared for cleanliness by a panel of three observers under standard daylight lighting conditions. The cleanest quarter was ranked 1, the next cleanest 2, the next cleanest 3 and the least clean 4.
The results of tests performed on the solutions described above are tabulated below. The symbol TKPP designates tetrapotassium pyrophosphate.

The following examples serve to illustrate'the present invention, without however, limiting the same thereto.
EXAMPLE 1 NOTE l.A ranking of is given to indicate the median when two detergents are tied for two adjacent ranks. Thus, a ranking of "28/ indicates that a tie occurred for 2 and 3 ranks and, l indicates gist a Se occurred for 1" and 2 ranks, i.e., "cleanest" and "next to eanes It was necessary to warm the sodium ortho-xylene-sulfonate solution, and the solution of the sodium orthoxylenesulfonate-TKPP mixture to melt crystals before use.
It was necessary also to warm the potassium paraxylenesulfonate solution to melt the crystals. However, these crystals reformed as soon as the warmed solution was touched to the cold tile. Crystals were not removed from the mixture of potassium para-xylenesulfonate and TKPP even with warming, and when used this solution contained a small amount of crystals.
EXAMPLE 2 The following results were obtained using mixtures of tetrapotassium pyrophosphate (TKPP) and commercial sodium xylenesulfonate (SXS) for cleaning a standard soiled wall surface. Five solutions of tetrapotassium pyrophosphate of varying concentrations were each used in combination with various concentrations of the sulfonate. Various percentage concentrations of tetrapotassium pyrophosphate in water solutions, namely: 22.5%, 21.0%, 18.0% and were each tested with 8.0%, 6.9%, 4.6% and 0% of sodium xylenesulfonate. For these tests, 0% of either tetrapotassium pyrophosphate or sulfonate was considered a concentration level of that component.
A panel of white Walltex, 4 feet x 2 feet, was attached with tape to a wooden table top. The surface was evenly soiled by application of a mixture of screened vacuum cleaner dust, oildag (colloidal graphite and petroleum oil) and cooking fat (bacon grease). An ordinary 9 inch paint roller was used in applying the soil evenly. The application of soil was adjusted to bring the soiled reflectance to a level of 17% on the Hunter reflectometer equipped with a green filter. The Hunter reflectometer is standardized so that the reflectance of a magnesium oxide block is 100% (green filter). For each run this test panel was divided into fifths, lengthwise, making five equal-sized rectangular test areas.
Washing of soiled areas.The washing of the soiled area was conducted at levels of 22.5%. 21.0%, 18.0% and 0% TKPP in combination with 8.0%, 6.9%, 4.6% and 0% of SXS. Solutions of each component identified by numerals for tetrapotassium pyrophosphate and letters for sodium xylenesulfonate were prepared so that equal weight portions of each component would give the desired mixtures.
Percent- Cone. of Prepared Solutions To illustrate-la called for equal weights of 1) 45% TKPP and (a) 16% SXS giving a resultant mixture (1a) of 22.5% TKPP and 8.0% SXS.
The washing scheme was as follows:
The above prepared solutions were used at room temperature in a standardized manner, 20 milliliters of solution placed in a inch watch glass. A clean white piece (3 inches x 4 inches) of new terrycloth was dipped into the solution until the cloth became saturated. The fabric was removed, squeezed between the fingers to remove excess moisture, and rubbed over the rectangular soiled Walltex test area for 30 seconds. The dirt and detergent mixture left on the test area was removed by absorption with an absorbent tissue. After drying, the reflectance of the tested area was determined in four locations.
When the test washings had been completed, the test area of 9.6 inches x 2 feet was cut from the larger 2 feet x 4 feet panel of Walltex used for each run. The resultant smaller swatch was easier to handle during the reflectance determinations on the Gardner color difference meter. Each cleaned area was read four times along the longer central axis. Since there were four replicates for each 4 detergent, the reflectances shown in Table H are the averages of 16 readings for each detergent mixture.

EXAMPLE 3 Additional tests were conducted using the same procedure as described in Example 2 employing a 24% concentration of TKPP and a 13.8% concentration of SXS so that combining equal weights of the TKPP solution with the SXS solution gave a mixture containing 12% TKPP and 6.9% SXS. The following reflectances were observed.

These results indicate that solutions containing the tetra-phosphate mixture plus sulfonate (either a single isomer or mixed isomers) are superior to the combined results of solutions containing phosphate alone, or sulfonate alone.

It is seen from the above data that Product 4 containing hexametaphosphate is not within the scope of the invention since no synergistic results are obtained. However, the pH of this product was about 5 while the pH of other formulations within the scope of the invention was higher than 7, i.e., on the alkaline side. It will be recognized that the lack of synergism in Product 4 may be due to the relatively low pH and that this can be overcome by means well-known to those skilled in the art.
Moreover, it is evident from Product 6 above that compositions containing the polyphosphate and sulfonate of the invention can be marketed as dry powders and the ultimate consumer may add water before using if desired.
Additives which do not materially alter the beneficial characteristics of the mixtures of this invention may be incorporated as shown in the above table. The amount of the additives should not exceed about 45% based on the weight of the dry ingredients. Thus, up to about 3% of a germicide and 3% of sodium silicate solids can be presem, as well as a maximum of about 10% of a chlorinereleasing bleaching agent. Other inert ingredients up to the 45% maximum can be added.
The term Walltex as used in the above examples refers to a coated cotton fabric waterproof wall covering which may be applied with paste in much the same manner as wall paper.
It will occur to those skilled in the art that there are many modifications to this invention as specifically described therein. It is intended to include all such modifications within the scope of the appended claims.
