Definitions

  • the present invention relates to stable peroxygen bleach-containing compositions suitable to be used as pretreater.
  • Peroxygen bleach-containing compositions have been extensively described in laundry applications as laundry detergents, laundry additives or even laundry pretreaters.
  • liquid peroxygen bleach-containing compositions in laundry pretreatment applications to boost the removal of encrustated stains/soils which are otherwise particularly difficult to remove such as grease, coffee, tea, grass, mud/clay-containing soils and the like.
  • a drawback associated with such liquid peroxygen bleach- containing compositions is the relative instability of said compositions. Indeed, such liquid peroxygen bleach-containing compositions when packaged in containers made out of deformable materials, typically thermoplastic materials, may cause so-called bulging problems.
  • the peroxide bleach in the composition decomposes with time so as to generate oxygen in the composition. The released oxygen builds up pressure inside the container which eventually deforms, i.e., bulges.
  • the rate of decomposition of peroxygen bleach depends on different parameters such as temperature, pH and/or presence of metal ions.
  • metal ions chelating agents e.g., polyaminocarboxylates and/or phosphonate chelating agents, and/or radical scavengers which contribute to reduce peroxygen bleach decomposition and thus to stabilise said compositions.
  • EP-B- 209 2208 discloses the use of metal ions chelating agents such as amino polyphosphonates and radical scavengers such as hydroxybenzene compounds (butylated hydroxy toluene) to stabilise liquid hydrogen peroxide bleaching compositions.
  • liquid peroxygen bleach-containing compositions are not totally satisfactory from a formulator point of view as said compositions all the same tend to be somewhat chemically unstable and consequently all the same tend to bulge the containers into which they may be packaged. In other words, it has been found that there is still room for further improving the chemical stability of a liquid peroxygen bleach-containing composition.
  • peroxygen bleach-containing compositions suitable to be used as pretreater that said compositions are safe to said fabric treated therewith.
  • a drawback associated with such peroxygen bleach-containing compositions is that said compositions may damage fabrics, resulting in loss of tensile strength of the fabric fibres and/or color damage, when used in pretreatment application under stressed conditions, e.g., when applied directly onto the fabrics, and left to act onto said fabrics for prolonged periods of time, i. e., several hours, before washing said fabrics and/or when the fabrics to be pretreated are contaminated with metal ions such as copper and/or iron and/or manganese and/or chromium.

  • compositions of the present invention provide also excellent performance when used in other applications, apart from laundry pretreater application, such as in other laundry applications, as a laundry detergent or laundry additive, or even in hard surface cleaning applications or in carpet cleaning applications.

Said reaction of auto-oxidation generates peroxy-radicals which may contribute to the degradation of cellulose. Thus, not leaving the liquid compositions, as described herein, to dry onto the fabric, in the process of pretreating soiled fabrics according to the present invention, contributes to the benefits according the present invention, i. e. to reduce the tensile strength loss when pretreating fabrics with liquid peroxygen bleach- containing compositions.
