Definitions

  • the present invention relates to particulate solid machine dishwashing detergent compositions containing a coated percarbonate bleach component, a bleach activator component, an acidification agent and a means for enabling delayed release of said acidification agent into the wash solution.
  • Detergent compositions designed for use in automatic dishwasher machines are well known, and a consistent effort has been made by detergent manufacturers to improve the cleaning and/or rinsing efficiency of said compositions on dishes and glassware, as reflected by numerous patent publications.
  • the inorganic perhydrate bleach most widely used in machine dishwashing detergent compositions is sodium perborate in the form of either the monohydrate or tetrahydrate.
  • concerns about the impact of boron salts on the environment have led to an increasing interest in other perhydrate salts, of which sodium percarbonate is the most readily available.
  • Detergent compositions containing sodium percarbonate are known in the art.
  • Sodium percarbonate is an attractive perhydrate for use in detergent compositions because it dissolves readily in water, is weight efficient and, after giving up its available oxygen, provides a source of carbonate ions to the wash solution.
  • percarbonate salts have been restricted hitherto by the relative instability of such salts in the detergent matrix environment.
  • percarbonate salt components of such detergent compositions decompose rapidly when stored in moist and/or warm atmospheres.-. It is known that acceptable storage characteristics may however be obtained through the protection of the percarbonate by coating the crystalline product, or by the inclusion of stabilizing agents during its manufacture, or both.
  • suitable coating agents have been proposed including silicates and mixtures of inorganic sulphate and carbonate salts.
  • Laundry washing and bleaching methods using compositions containing a hydrogen peroxide source and peroxyacid bleach precursor (bleach activator) and involving an initially alkaline (e.g.: pH 10 - 11) wash solution, and delayed release of acid into the wash solution to provide a final wash solution of lower pH are known in the art, having been disclosed for example, in EP-A-396,287 and EP-A-290,081.
  • washing methods are referred to generally as •controlled pH release washing methods* .
  • the coating of the percarbonate bleach which is necessary for its storage stability in the detergent product, will act such as to inhibit the required rapid release of hydrogen peroxide into the initial alkaline wash solution. Release of the hydrogen peroxide is particularly impaired where the initial wash solution temperature is close to room temperature, e.g.; as with •cold fill' dishwashing machines. The overall performance of the washing method is thus impaired.
  • the percarbonate is formulated in combination with a bleach activator, an acidification agent and means of delayed release of said acidification agent.
