Definitions

• the invention relates to multi-phase liquid cleaning agents with an oil and / or wax, which can be temporarily emulsified by shaking and can be used for cleaning and / or maintaining hard surfaces, in particular furniture, a product containing the agent and a method for cleaning and / or maintenance of hard surfaces.
• the cleaning agents for hard surfaces that are common today are usually aqueous preparations in the form of a stable solution or dispersion which contain, as essential active ingredients, surface-active substances, organic solvents and, if appropriate, complexing agents for the hardness constituents of water, abrasives and cleaning alkalis.
• Detergents which are primarily intended for cleaning glass and ceramic surfaces, are often formulated as solutions of the active substances in a mixture of water and water-miscible organic solvents, primarily lower alcohols and glycol ethers. Examples of such agents can be found in German Offenlegungsschrift 22 20 540, US Pat. Nos. 3,839,234 and 3,882,038 and in European Patent Applications 344 847 and 393 772.
• Such aqueous liquid cleaners are usually present as homogeneous, stable solutions or dispersions.
• care ingredients such as oils or waxes, are incorporated into the cleaning agents.
• German Offenlegungsschrift 39 10 170 describes compositions serving as mouthwash for the desorption of bacteria from solid surfaces and living tissues, which are in the form of a 2-phase preparation and form a temporary oil-in-water emulsion of limited life when shaken, where the aqueous phase comprises approximately 50 to 97% by weight and the water-immiscible oil phase comprises approximately 3 to 50% by weight.
• What is essential is a content of about 0.003 to 2% by weight of an amphiphilic cationic agent, for example a cationic surfactant, in an amount which enables the formation of the oil-in-water emulsion, this emulsion being about 10 seconds to 30 minutes collapses after their formation and separates.
• Anionic surfactants impair the antibacterial effect. No other surfactants are mentioned.
• European patent application 0 195 336 describes shaking emulsifiable care products for sensitive surfaces, in particular plastic surfaces or compact disc disks, which in addition to an aqueous phase also contain an organic phase which consists of chlorofluorocarbon (CFRP) 1, 1, 2-trichloro- 1,2,2-trifluoroethane.
• CFRP chlorofluorocarbon
• the agents are also free of wax. Due to their environmentally harmful properties, especially in connection with the ozone hole, the use of CFRP should be reduced or better avoided.
• German laid-open documents 195 01 184, 195 01 187 and 195 01 188 disclose hair treatment agents in the form of 2-phase systems which have an oil phase and a water phase and can be mixed briefly by mechanical action, the oil phases 65 (195 01 188), 95 (195 01 187), 96.7 (195 01 187) or 98% by weight of the cyclic decamethylpentasiloxane (195 01 184) or 93.3% by weight hexamethyldisiloxane (195 01 184).

• the agents according to the invention combine a high cleaning performance and a caring effect.

Furthermore, the agents according to the invention are distinguished by an overall high storage stability. The individual phases are stable on average over a long period of time that, for example, deposits were formed and the transfer to a temporary emulsion remains reversible even after frequent shaking. In addition, the physical form of the agents according to the invention does not address the problem of stabilizing an agent formulated as an emulsion per se.
