Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for the manufacture of alkaline bleaching compositions useful to the consumer, especially as products for hard surface cleaning, bleaching or disinfectancy.
- the products comprise both chlorine and bromine bleach sources.
- the process has mixing sequences and starting ingredient selections which provide unexpectedly improved product.
- Hard surface cleaners, bleaches and disinfectants are well-known formulated consumer products. They are useful for treating all manner of soiled kitchen, bathroom, sink, tub, shower, toilet bowl and counter top surfaces.
- Hypochlorite bleach is desirable for its high effectiveness as a bleach and disinfectant.
- Hypochlorite has several disadvantages, including that it can sometimes be too aggressive, tends to leave an unpleasant odor on the hands, and is not always stable on storage in a consumer product formulation.
- Bromine containing compounds have been used in specialized circumstances for bleaching or disinfectancy. However they tend to be expensive and are often even more demanding in terms of storage stability than the chlorine analogs. Sulfamic acid has been used as a cleaner, especially in acidic cleaners delivering high concentrations of the acid.
- the process herein has several advantages, including that it is easy to operate and is safe and effective for its intended purpose. Surprisingly, it delivers a product which is actually superior to the product which is achieved when numerous other mixing sequences are employed.
- compositions can be adjusted for sink cleaning or mechanical dishwashing.
- JP 63108099 A Lion Corp., published May 12, 1988 describes a bleaching agent for controlling chlorine odor containing a specific ratio of hypochlorite and sulfamic acid and/or sulfamate and pH adjusting agents. The ratio is 2-8 wt% hypochlorite based on "the amount of the effective chlorine" (sic) and there is a 0.25 to 1.5 mol ratio of sulfamic acid, and/or a sulfamate, to hypochlorite.
- JP 63161088 A Lion Corp., published July 4, 1988 describes bleaching compositions for cloth comprising mainly hydrogen peroxide and sulfamic acid and/or water-soluble sulfamate and hypohalous acid and/or a water-soluble hypohalite salt such as NaCIO, Ca(OCI)2, bleaching powder or NaBrO, the sulfamate being present in an amount of 0.5-5 mol per mol hypohalite.
- U.S. 5,431 ,839, Guillou, July 11 ,1995 describes sulfamic acid cleaning/stripping compositions comprising heteropolysaccharide thickening agents.
- U.S. 5,047,164, September 10, 1991 , Corby, describes compositions containing interhalogens and acid especially adapted for cleaning and disinfecting milk- and food-handling equipment.
- U.S. 4,279,764, Brubaker, July 21, 1981 describes encapsulated bleaches comprising storage stable chlorinated isocyanurates.
- Chloramines, Bromamines and N-halamines more generally are reviewed in Kirk Othmer's Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, Wiley-Interscience, 4th Ed., Vol. 5, pp 911-932; see also a corresponding article in the 3rd edition of the same Encyclopedia. Chlorine gas has previously been mixed with solutions containing sulfamic acid: see Korshak et al., Zh. Obsch. Khim., Vol. 18 (1948), pages 753-756, but the mixture decomposed.
- the present invention encompasses a process for manufacturing an alkaline bleaching composition, preferably an aqueous liquid bleaching composition, said process comprising at least three stages. These stages include, in sequence (I) a pre-bromine stage, (II) a bromine compound addition stage, and (III) a product stabilization stage, and each of said stages has at least one mixing step.
- said pre-bromine stage, (I) comprises a step, (a), of mixing in any order components comprising a hypochlorite source and an aminofunctional compound having a stable N-halo derivative; thereby forming a stage (I) mixture; provided that at the end of said pre-bromine stage, said stage (I) mixture has a pH not exceeding about 11 , preferably lower; said bromine compound addition stage, (II), is initiated at said pH and comprises a step, (b), of mixing in any order with said stage (I) mixture, a bromine compound; thereby forming a stage (II) mixture, and said product stabilization stage, (III), comprises at least one step, (c), of mixing in any order with said stage (II) mixture, an alkali in an amount suitable to arrive at a final pH for the product of said process of at least about 13.
- the product provided by this process has unique advantages in terms of excellent bleaching effect at the same time as permitting a minimization of "bleach odor" on skin.
- the preferred product is a transparent yellow aqueous liquid, which may optionally be thickened and/or perfumed. All percentages, ratios, and proportions herein are on a weight basis unless otherwise indicated. All documents cited are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.
- FIG. 1 represents a schematic outline of the present process, showing the conversion of starting-materials (ingredients) to product via a series of stages, comprising, in sequence, Stage (I), Stage (II) and Stage (III).
- Stage (I) includes an essential step, namely Step (a).
- Stage (II) includes an essential step, namely Step (b)
- Stage (III) includes an essential Step, namely step (c).
- the present process in the most reduced form which can be constructed from Fig. 1 consists of the sequence of three steps (a) followed by (b) followed by (c).
- Each of the essential stages and steps, as well as suitable ingredients and characteristics of the product are described in detail hereinafter.
- alkaline bleaching composition having superior technical performance and desirability for the consumer, it is necessary to provide two distinct types of halogen ingredient including at least one having, at the outset, the form of a bromine compound and at least one having, at the outset, the form of a hypohalite compound. It has also been found essential to particularly select and include a certain aminofunctional compound; and to provide a particular process, especially in terms of mixing sequence, to secure the product benefits.
- alkaline bleaching compositions as defined herein are strongly alkaline.
- the "alkaline bleaching compositions” herein have a pH as is of at least about 13, and are made from ingredients comprising a hypophalite source and a bromine compound along with at least one particularly selected aminofunctional compound.
- Alkaline beaching compositions herein are useful to the consumer as products for hard surface cleaning, bleaching or disinfectancy. They can, in general, have any suitable physical form, such as granular, tablet, paste, gel or liquid form, and can be aqueous or non-aqueous.
- Processes herein generally comprise at least three stages:
- the stages are carried out in the order (I) then (II) then (III).
- the stages are identified in Fig. 1.
- Each stage includes one or more steps.
- the process includes, in Stage (I), step (a); in Stage (II), step (b), and in Stage (III), step (c). Additional steps, for example of adding and/or mixing other ingredients such as perfumes, surfactants and the like, may be inserted before or after any of the essential steps, provided that they do not affect the indicated sequence of essential steps and further, that they are perfomed compatibly with respecting the pH criticalities described herein.
- Stage (I), the pre-bromine addition stage, is a stage used to bring together a hypochlorite source and a particular aminofunctional compound
- Stage (II), the bromine compound addition stage is a stage used to introduce a bromine compound
- stage (III), the product stabilization stage is a stage used to stabilize the product by increasing pH.
- the invention encompasses a process for manufacturing an alkaline bleaching composition, said process comprising at least three stages including, in sequence, (I) a pre-bromine stage, (II) a bromine compound addition stage, and (III) a product stabilization stage, each of said stages having at least one mixing step; wherein in said process, said pre-bromine stage comprises a step, (a), of mixing in any order components comprising a hypochlorite source and an aminofunctional compound having a stable N-halo derivative; thereby forming a stage (I) mixture; provided that at the end of said pre-bromine stage, said stage (I) mixture has a pH not exceeding about 11 ; said bromine compound addition stage is initiated at said pH and comprises a step, (b), of mixing in any order with said stage (I) mixture, a bromine compound; thereby forming a stage (II) mixture; and said product stabilization stage comprises at least one step, (c), of mixing in any order with said stage (II) mixture, an alkali in
- the present process can include various optional steps.
- An optional step useful herein is illustrated by a dilution step, included in the process after completion of stage (III). Such a step as a dilution step can in fact be carried out either by the manufacturer, or by the user of the product of stages (I), (II) and (III). Dilution steps can in general be included in stage (I), stage (II) or stage (III) of the present process, though prefereably, dilution is avoided in those stages. Typically for best storage stability, a dilution step is not carried out in the plant, but rather, by the consumer who uses the composition. Dilution can result in pH variation, typically including pH decrease.
- Other optional steps useful herein include surfactant addition steps, or steps of adding or mixing any suitable optional ingredient, such as those identified under “optional ingredients” hereinafter.
- Reactors are desirably chemically inert to halogen bleach and strongly alkaline conditions, plastics and/or borosilicate glass lined apparatus is desirably used both for durability and to minimize contamination of the product by metals. Reactors need not be designed for operation under pressure provided that suitable venting is provided. Mixing of ingredients can be accomplished using any suitable mixer, such as a motor-driven paddle. Alternately, a centrifugal pump can be used to provide a recirculating jet of product solution, driving agitation of the mixture.
- Other useful process means herein include means for removing vapors from the work environment. Such means include conventional scrubbers, etc.
- each of said steps (b) and (c) is performed at a temperature in the range from about 5 °C to about 80 °C, preferably from about 10 °C to about 45 °C, most preferably at or about ambient temperature, e.g., about 20°C.
- Highly preferred process herein accomplish all steps in stages (I), (II) and (III) at such temperatures. At higher temperatures, there may be an increased decomposition tendency and at lower temperatures, freezing can be a problem.
- the present process requires particular limits on pH variation. There is a general requirement that at the end of the pre-bromine stage and at the beginning of the bromine stage, the pH of the stage (I) mixture is not in excess of about 11. In preferred embodiments, this pH is not in excess of about 8, more preferably, it lies in the range from about 1 to about 6.9. In preferred embodiments, from the end of stage I, the entire process is conducted at a rising pH. Such rising pH desirably corresponds with a value of dpH/dt of at least about + 0.1 pH units/min, preferably about + 0.5 pH units/min, or higher.
- the instant process contains a pH minimum.
- the position in the overall sequence of the present process of this minimum is found at the end of stage (I).
- the present process can be conducted at any convenient pressure.
- chlorine gas and alkali can be reacted under pressure, for example up to about 5 atm., in stage (I) prior to adding the aminofunctional compound; and the following stages of the process can be conducted at atmospheric pressure, or even at reduced pressure if scrubbers or condensers are provided for collecting lost halogen.
- Preferred processes are conducted at atmospheric pressure.
- the present process can be conducted in batch or continuous mode. Unless otherwise indicated, illustrations of the process hereinafter are batch-mode. Times for completion of a batch may in general vary widely. Typically, times of about 5 min to about 1.5 hours are typical for each of stages (I) , (II) and (III). In preferred embodiments, Stage (II) will allow at least sufficient time to permit the bromine compound to substantially dissolve before proceeding with stage (III). Also preferably, stage (II) is continued until development of a yellow color in the stage (II) mixture. In general, the longer process times are associated with larger-scale processes. It is preferred herein to minimize the overall reaction time, and in particular, while allowing sufficient time for stage (II), to proceed without delay from that stage to the end of stage (III). Moreover, it is highly preferred to minimize any time period between the end of step (a) and the beginning of step (b), and between the end of step (b) and the beginning of step (c).
- the present process can be conducted over a wide range of concentrations of the ingredients in water.
- the process is characterized by a dilution factor for the sum of stages subsequent to stage (I) which is not in excess of about twofold.
- concentrations of the ingredients are adjusted such that the product of stage (III), comprises from about 0.01 % to about 10 % Available Chlorine.
- the present process preferably relies on an interhalogen ratio [Br] : [OCf] of from about 10 : 1 to about 1 : 10, preferably 1 :2 to 1 :5, wherein [Br] represents total moles Br added into said process from said bromine compound and [OCf ] represents total moles hypochlorite added into said process from said hypochlorite source.
- the preferred processes herein employ an amino-halo ratio [A] : [X] of from about 10 : 1 to about 1 : 10, wherein [A] represents the total of moles of amino moieties of said aminofunctional compound used to form said composition and wherein [X] represents total moles of bleaching halogen, measurable as Available Chlorine, added into said composition.
- said amino-halo ratio is from about 1.0 : 1.0 to about 1.5 : 1.0.
- [A] is simply the number of moles of sulfamate; but to give another illustration, when melamine is used, [A] is the number of moles of melamine used multiplied by the number of moles (which is 3) of amino moieties contained in any one mole of melamine.
- hypochlorite sources are selected from chlorine, hypochlorous acid, alkali metal hypochlorites, alkaline earth metal hypochlorites, the product of mixing a hypochlorite-liberating compound with aqueous alkali, and mixtures thereof.
- Suitable hypochlorite-liberating compounds in the sense immediately above, are illustrated by dichloroisocyanuric acid and its sodium salts and hydrates, which hydrolyze rather readily to release hypochlorite.
- Highly preferred hypochlorite sources herein are selected from alkali metal hypochlorites and the product of mixing said hypochlorite-liberating compound and aqueous alkali.
- suitable aminofunctional compounds are those having stable N-halo derivatives.
- the term "having a stable N-halo derivative” herein is defined as “capable of forming an N-halo derivative and it is stable”, rather than as necessarily “possessing a stable N-halo moiety at the inception of the present process”.
- Suitable aminofunctional compounds meeting the needs of the present invention are selected from (i) primary aminofunctional compounds selected from sulfamic acid, alkali-metal sulfamates, alkaline earth sulfamates, tetra-alkylammonium sulfamates, and mixtures thereof; (ii) secondary aminofunctional compounds selected from secondary amine derivatives having formula RR'NH or (R")2NH wherein R, R' and R" are organic moieties and wherein carbon atoms of said organic moieties are bonded covalently to NH; (iii) suifonamides selected from sulfamide, p-toluenesuffonamide, imidodisulfonamide, benzenesulfonamide, alkyl suifonamides, and mixtures thereof; (iv) melamine, cyanamide; and (v) mixtures thereof.
- primary aminofunctional compounds selected from sulfamic acid, alkali-metal sulf
- Suitable secondary aminofunctional compounds (ii) include those not specifically identified in (i), (iii), (iv) and (v), wherein R, R' and R" are independently selected from C1-C12 linear saturated and C3-C12 branched saturated moieties which can be alkyl, aryl or heterocyclic, optionally substituted by carboxylic acid or carboxylate: an example of the latter carboxylic-substituted derivatives is the alpha-aminobutyrates.
- Preferred secondary aminofunctional compounds are known for use as disinfectants, especially those which are water-soluble and those having N-halo derivatives which are relatively insensitive to shock.
- Hydrolysis constants such as the above are well known in the art and are defined conventionally. See, for example, Kirk Othmer's Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, 3rd Ed., Vol. 5, article entitled “Chloramines and Bromamines", see especially page 567, and Kirk Othmer's Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, 3rd Ed., Vol. 3, see especially pages 940-941 , these articles being incorporated herein by reference.
- preferred secondary aminofunctional compounds can be selected from those identified in Kirk Othmer, Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, 4th. Ed., 1993, pages 918-925 and include compounds identified under the headings "Organic Chloramines and Bromamines", “Aliphatic Compounds”, “Aromatic Compounds” and “Heterocyclic Compounds”.
- Sulfamic acid or sodium sulfamate are highly preferred aminofunctional compounds herein.
- Suitable alkali in the present process is selected from alkali-metal-, alkaline- earth-, and tetraalkylammonium- oxides, hydroxides, carbonates, bicarbonates, silicates, phosphates, borates, and mixtures thereof.
- Suitable bromine compounds in the present process are selected from the group consisting of bromine, water-soluble bromide salts, water-soluble hypobromite salts, hypobromous acid, and mixtures thereof.
- said hypochlorite source is selected from alkali metal hypochlorites and the product of mixing a hypochlorite- liberating compound and aqueous alkali; said aminofunctional compound is selected from sulfamic acid, alkali-metal sulfamates, alkaline earth sulfamates, tetra-alkylammonium sulfamates, and mixtures thereof; and said bromine compound is selected from the group consisting of water-soluble bromide salts.
- said hypochlorite source is sodium hypochlorite
- said aminofunctional compound is sulfamic acid
- said bromine compound is selected from sodium bromide, potassium bromide and mixtures thereof.
- the present process and product thereof preferably limits certain compounds which have been found to adversely affect product stability and effectiveness.
- undesirable compounds herein are those aminofunctional compounds which do not form stable N-halo derivatives.
- Such compounds include simple ammonium (NH4 + ) salts, such as ammonium sulfate; urea; amino acids such as aspartic acid; and mixtures thereof, any of which may, for example, produce unpleasant odors of undesirable chloramines.
- Preferred herein are processes wherein throughout, and at least in the essential aminofunctional compound, no ingredient comprises more than about 1% of aminofunctional impurity compounds having unstable N-halo derivatives.
- sulfamic acid is commercially available in a range of grades, certain of which may include urea as an impurity.
- the crystal grade of sulfamic acid which minimizes urea impurity, is found to be preferred.
- the present process is conducted using starting materials which are all water-soluble that is to say, excluding insoluble materials such as abrasives, thereby avoiding any tendency for surface-catalyzed bleach decomposition.
- any convenient alkali or base can be used herein as a pH-adjusting agent for increasing pH, and any convenient acid can be used herein as a pH-adjusting agent for decreasing pH; always provided that such alkali or acid is non- reactive with hypohalite.
- Preferred alkalis for pH adjustment include water- soluble alkalis such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide or mixtures thereof, and preferred acids include the common mineral acids such as sulfuric, hydrochloric or nitric, though sulfuric is preferred in this group. Alternately relatively weak acids can be used; these include acetic acid.
- bases which knowledgeable practitioners will avoid entirely in the present process include ammonia because it is chemically reactive with other essential ingredients herein for purposes other than pH change, forming, for example, an undesirable type of chloramine when it reacts with hypochlorite.
- any simple mineral acid or base additions in the present process will be carried out in a manner consistent with preserving the chemical integrity of the aminofunctional compound.
- mineral acid additions are conducted under sufficient dilution to avoid decomposition of the sulfamic acid.
- Concentrated nitric acid for example, is known to decompose sulfamic acid at HNO3 concentrations of 73%, especially at elevated temperatures, with formation of nitrous oxide, and such combination of concentrated mineral acid and elevated temperature is avoided in the instant process.
- Water used for making liquid compositions according to the present process is suitably city water. In general, hard, soft, softened or deionized water may be used. Distilled or reverse-osmosis treated water are especially desirable.
- water of uncertain quality for example ferruginous water or high- manganese water from boreholes
- a chelant or sequestrant can be u to treat process water. It is prudent to monitor or periodically check, and if needed, minimize transition metal ion content of the water by conventional techniques since transition metal ions are well-known to affect bleach product stabiliy.
- Suitable analysis is by atomic absorption spectroscopy or inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy (ICP).
- pH herein is measured using a glass electrode or combination electrode such as Corning General Purpose Combination electrode Cat. No. 476530, and a commercial pH meter such as the ⁇ 40 pH meter available from Beckman. pH Ramping
- Available Chlorine sometimes abbreviated "AvCl2" as used herein is described in Kirk Othmer's Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, Vol. 4, 4th Ed. (1992) pages 274-275 published by Wiley-Interscience.
- Reactions which produce an oxidant from chlorine include the following:
- the total concentration or amount of any given chlorine-based oxidant is often expressed on an equivalent basis, as though all the oxidant were chlorine. Available Chlorine is thus the equivalent concentration or amount of chlorine needed to produce an oxidant, for example according to the above reactions, and can be measured by conventional measures, such as iodometric methods referenced in Kirk-Othmer (op. cit).
- Available Chlorine can be determined for bleaches that do not actually form hypochlorite in solution, such as bromine-containing bleaches, and other nonchlorine bleaches, by substituting the number of electrons accepted divided by two for the number of active chlorine atoms in the above relation. This can also be measured by iodometric titration.
- the Available Chlorine unit is a dimensionless percentage, not a percentage by weight. It should be apparent from the definition that it is in fact possible in general terms to obtain Available Chlorine values which exceed 100%; this can happen in the case of a chlorine bleach which is more mass efficient than CI2, recalling that only one chlorine atom in CI2 is a bleaching chlorine atom; however, such levels are not encountered in the present process.
- ingredients herein may vary quite widely; nonetheless there is a strong preference for particular interhalogen ratios as defined elsewhere herein and it is commercially attractive to use ingredients such as sodium hypochlorite at the most economic concentrations provided by their manufacturers.
- the present invention has significant advantages, for example improved bleaching.
- improved bleaching it is meant herein that a composition obtainable with the process of the present invention delivers better bleaching performance on bleachabie stains like tea stains, as compared to the bleaching performance delivered by the same composition made by another process, for example one involving numerous alternate orders of addition or mixing of the ingredients.
- the formulations provided by the process leave low residual odor on skin and are milder than those otherwise manufactured with different ingredient selections and/or orders of addition.
- the combination of overall performance and desirable skin safety/aesthetics offered by the present process are believed to be measurably superior to those attainable by any art-recognized process.
- the product of the present process is not in general limited as to form, though it is highly preferred for the compositions produced to be aqueous liquids or aqueous gels.
- Another product form potentially preferred herein is a "high- solubility solid concentrate” or “high solubility tablet” form. Such product forms are free from abrasives.
- the product of the process is preferably transparent, and, as described elsewhere herein, may be both colored and perfumed.
- the present process and the product thereof allow for the presence of at least one additional mixing step other than the essential minimum (a), (b), (c); wherein there is added an ingredient selected from the group consisting of surfactants, buffers, builders, chelants, perfumes, colorants, dyes, bleach stabilizers, pigments, suds supressors, anti-tarnish and/or anti-corrosion agents, soil-suspending agents, germicides, alkalinity sources, hydrotropes, anti-oxidants, day soil removal/anti-redeposition agents, thickeners, solvents, and mixtures thereof.

- a surfactant or mixtures thereof selected from the group consisting of anionic, nonionic, ampholytic and zwitterionic surface active agents.
- surfactant is preferably present to the extent of from about 0.1 % to 20%, though higher levels, e.g., 30% are possible, for example in viscous gels, aqueous pastes or semi-solids.
- Anionic surfactants herein can include water-soluble salts, particularly the alkali metal salts, of C8-C22 organic sulfuric reaction products and a radical selected from the group consisting of sulfonic acid and sulfuric acid ester radicals.
- Sodium or potassium alkyl sulfates, especially those obtained by sulfating C ⁇ - C18 alcohols are useful, as are linear or branched alkyl benzene sulfonates especially the C9-C15 alkyl-substituted sodium- or potassium- salt forms; also useful are the sodium alkyl glyceryl ether sulfonates, especially those ethers of the higher alcohols derived from tallow and coconut oil; sodium coconut oil fatty acid monoglyceride sulfates and sulfonates; sodium or potassium salts of sulfuric acid esters of the reaction product of one mole of a higher fatty alcohol (e.g.
- tallow or coconut alcohols and about 1 to about 10 moles of ethylene oxide

- conventional primary alkyl sulfates such as those having the general formula ROSO3 ⁇ M wherein R is typically a linear C8-C22 hydrocarbon group and M is a water solublizing cation are useful herein, as are the secondary alkyl sulfates and/or branched chain primary alkyl sulfate surfactants (i.e., branched-chain "PAS") having 8-20 carbon atoms, see EP 439,316 A Smith et al.
- Secondary alkyl sulfate surfactants include those materials which have the sulfate moiety distributed randomly along the hydrocarbyl "backbone" of the molecule. Such materials may be depicted by the structure
- n and n are integers of 2 or greater and the sum of m + n is typically about 9 to 17, and M is a water-solublizing cation.
- x and (y+1) are, respectively, integers of at least about 6, and can range from about 7 to about 20, preferably about 10 to about 16.
- M is a cation, such as an alkali metal, ammonium, alkanolammonium, triethanol-ammonium, potassium, ammonium, and the like, can also be used.
- the aforementioned secondary alkyl sulfates are those prepared by the addition of H2SO4 to olefins.
- a typical synthesis using alpha olefins and sulfuric acid is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,234,258, Morris, issued February 8, 1966 or in U.S. Pat. No. 5,075,041 , Lutz, issued December 24,1991.
- Especially preferred surfactants for use in the present process are those having the highest possible bleach stability, including C8-C22 fatty amine oxides such as hexadecyldimethylamine N- oxide or saturated fatty alkyl alkoxylates.
- Particularly objectionable surfactants are those having a high degree of unsaturation, and any surfactants comprising hypohalite-reactive nitrogen moieties.
- Somewhat less problematic, but still a potential source of difficulty, are the use of any alcohols.
- the so- called "capped" forms in which terminal -OH is replaced by -OCH3 or similarly unreactive groups is particularly preferred.
- bleach-stable and hydrolytically-stable surfactants can be added at various stages of the present process, but for convenience, their addition will generally be done in such manner as to minimize foaming which may undesirably slow down the process.
- Silicone anti-foams are desirable for limiting foam; such anti-foams are commercially available from Dow Corning Co ⁇ .

- the hard surface cleaner of the present invention optionally contains buffers to help adjust and maintain the pH at about 13 or in a range above about 13.
- suitable buffers are potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate, and trisodium phosphate, however, the formulator is not restricted to these examples or combinations thereof.
- the cleaning compositions obtainable according to the process of the present invention may also desirably be prepared with inclusion of a heavy metal ion control system, especially one comprising one or more agents for the control of bleach destabilization caused by soluble, insoluble or colloidal iron and/or manganese and/or copper.
- a simple but effective agent is sodium tripolyphosphate, optionally supported by at least partially polymeric hydrous sodium silicate.
- other chelating or heavy-metal control agents are phytic acid and ethane-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonic acid (EHDP), though other materials, such as a number of commercial phosphonate types, may be used.
- Preferred chelating agents herein are free from alcohol sites, halogen-reactive nitrogen donor sites, and hydrolytically sensitive sites.
- a preferred addition of at least some chelating agent or heavy-metal ion control agent takes place at or near the beginning of the process, for example immediately before, or concurrent with, step l(a).
- a silicate for the pu ⁇ ose at least in part of helping control heavy metal ions, it is added at a point in the process which is remote from both the pH minimum and the pH maximum of the process.
- Perfumes when used are typically at levels of from 0% to 5%. See U.S Pat No. 4,246,129, Kacher, issued January 20, 1981.
- the compositions obtainable according to the process of the present invention typically have a yellow color.
- a preferred solution which has some other color, for example, by the addition of a bleach- stable dye; moreover, preferred solutions may readily be diluted, in which case yellow color is difficult to detect.
- dyes are preferably added at the end of the process, in which case product-making can be more conveniently monitored on a colorant-free product.
- the liquid compositions obtainable according to the process of the present invention may be formulated with different viscosities.
- the compositions obtainable with the process herein have a viscosity of from about 1 to about 150cps. Said compositions are convenient for spray bottle application.
- said liquid compositions obtainable according to the present invention can be further thickened, e.g., by the addition of additional bleach-stable thickener, such as the commercially available DOWFAX.
- a suitable gel formulation has a viscosity of from about 100 cps to about 2000 cps, preferably from 300 cps to 1000 cps as measured, for example, by techniques and methods described in "Physico-Chemical Methods", Reilly, J.
- stage (I) mixture To the stirred stage (I) mixture is added Sodium Bromide (0.5 grams, EM Science). The mixture is stirred until the added solid has dissolved (about 5 minutes) and a yellow color has appeared. The mixture at this point is identified as a Stage (II) mixture.
- Example I The process of Example I is repeated with the following differences: The scale of operations is increased 1000-fold.
- chlorine gas is passed into sodium hydroxide solution, forming sodium hypochlorite solution.
- the sodium hypochlorite solution is passed into the above-identified reactor in batches, where it is treated with sulfamic acid, forming a stage (I) mixture. Steps subsequent to stage (I) are conducted in the manner of Example I.
- Example II The process of Example II is repeated with the following difference: Sodium Sulfamate is substituted for sulfamic acid.
- Example IV The process of Example III is repeated with the following difference: prior to completion of Stage I, aqueous hydrochloric acid is added to reduce the pH to about 7.0.
- “Surfactant” refers to C8 Alkyl Sulfate, C12-C14 Dimethylamine N- Oxide or a mixture thereof.
- “'Surfactant” refers to C8 Alkyl Sulfate, C12-C14 Dimethylamine N- Oxide or a mixture thereof.
