Description

"Detergents and Cleaning Agents with Alkyl Polypentosides"

The present invention relates to a laundry detergent or cleaning composition, in particular to an aqueous hard surface cleaner containing a surfactant mixture containing at least one nonionic alkyl polyglycoside and at least one non-glycosylated surfactant.

Commercially available detergents and cleaners, e.g. Hand dishwashing detergents, usually contain combinations of several surfactants to meet the requirements for the agent

Cleaning performance and foaming to meet. The surfactants are usually both those which are obtained from renewable raw materials, as well as petrochemical surfactants.

In formulating new detergent compositions, one goal is to increase the use of renewable resources, i. to reduce the proportion of surfactants derived from petrochemicals in favor of surfactants based on renewable raw materials. This is both in view of the expected crude oil shortage and due to the

Desire for sustainability and a neutral or positive C0 ₂ balance desirable and is in the wake of increasing environmental awareness among industry and consumers increasingly in demand. Another aspect is the biodegradability, which is often not the case with surfactants from non-native sources, which leads to a stronger water pollution. At the same time, however, it is necessary that the funds both in terms of cleaning and

Foaming performance and in terms of skin friendliness with cleaning agents, especially detergents containing conventional petrochemical surfactants are comparable.

When using renewable raw materials, however, it is often disadvantageous that the raw material base used can also be used as food and therefore the increasing use of renewable raw materials in non-food products to a

Shortage of food leads. For example, at present raw materials from e.g. Sugar beets, wheat, potatoes and maize used in the surfactant production, resulting in a shortage and therefore more expensive food.

For this reason, it is desirable to provide detergents and cleaners which, with the least possible use of raw materials, achieve cleaning performances which are comparable to those of conventional detergents and cleaners. Furthermore, it is desirable that

renewable raw materials are used whose raw material base remains unused as waste, such as wheat straw or grass. It is therefore an object of this invention to provide a washing or cleaning composition containing renewable resource surfactants that do not compete with food production, while having good cleaning and foaming performance.

It has now surprisingly been found that this can be achieved with a washing or cleaning agent which contains a surfactant mixture which contains at least one nonionic alkylpolyglycoside which comprises at least one alkylpolypentoside and at least one non-glycosylated surfactant.

In a first aspect, therefore, the present invention relates to a laundry or cleaning composition comprising a surfactant mixture containing at least one nonionic alkylpolyglycoside and at least one non-glycosylated surfactant, wherein the at least one nonionic alkylpolyglycoside comprises at least one nonionic alkylpolypentoside. The washing or cleaning agent may be an aqueous hard surface cleaner such as e.g. one

Dishwashing detergent, preferably a hand dishwashing detergent, or even a detergent. The non-glycosylated surfactant does not contain a sugar component, i. in particular no mono-, di-, oligo-, polysaccharides or derivatives thereof and is, in various embodiments of the invention, selected from soaps, alkyl alkoxylates, betaines, alkyl ether sulfates, alkyl sulfates, linear alkyl benzene sulfonates, secondary alkane sulfonates, olefin sulfonates,

Methyl ester sulfonates, and alkylamidoalkylamines. The compositions according to the invention usually comprise the surfactant mixture in an amount of from 0.1 to 40% by weight, preferably from 1 to 35% by weight, particularly preferably from 2 to 30% by weight.

In a further aspect, the invention relates to the use of the washing or cleaning agents according to the invention for cleaning surfaces or textiles, in particular for cleaning hard surfaces.

In yet another aspect, the invention relates to a method for cleaning surfaces or textiles, the method comprising the step of contacting the surface or textiles with the detergent composition of the invention.

Substances which also serve as ingredients of cosmetic products are referred to below, where appropriate, according to the International Nomenclature Cosmetic Ingredient (INCI) nomenclature. Chemical compounds carry an INCI name in English, plant ingredients are listed only after Linne in Latin, so-called trivial names such as "water", "honey" or "sea salt" are also given in Latin. The INCI names can be found in the International Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary and Handbook - Seventh Edition (1997), published by The Cosmetic, Toiletry and Fragrance Association (CTFA), 1 101 17th Street, NW, Suite 300, Washington, DC 20036, USA, is issued and more than 9,000 INCI names, as well as references to more than 37,000 trade names and technical Names including their distributors from over 31 countries. The International Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary and Handbook assigns to the ingredients one or more chemical classes, such as polymer ethers, and one or more functions, such as surfactants-cleansing agents, which are further explained and discussed below possibly also referred to.

The indication CAS means that the following sequence of numbers is a name of the Chemical Abstracts Service.

Unless otherwise stated, amounts given are percentages by weight (% by weight) of the total composition. As used herein, "about" in the context of numerical values means a variance of ± 10%, preferably ± 5%.

In the context of the present invention are fatty acids or fatty alcohols or their derivatives - unless otherwise stated - representative of branched or unbranched carboxylic acids or alcohols or their derivatives having preferably 6 to 22 carbon atoms. The former are particularly preferred because of their vegetable base as based on renewable raw materials for ecological reasons. Whenever alkaline earth metals are referred to below as counterions for monovalent anions, this means that the alkaline earth metal is present only in half - as sufficient to charge balance - amount of substance as the anion.

Alkylpolyglykoside

The alkyl polyglycosides (APG) are nonionic sugar surfactants which preferably satisfy the general formula R 0 (AO) _a [G] _x in which R is a linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated alkyl radical having 6 to 22, preferably 6 to 18, in particular 8 to 16, particularly preferably 8 to 14 carbon atoms, [G] for a glycosidically linked sugar residue and x for a number from 1 to 10 and AO for an alkyleneoxy group, for. Example, an ethyleneoxy or Propylenoxygruppe, and a is the average degree of alkoxylation from 0 to 20. Here, the group (AO) _{a may} also contain different alkyleneoxy, z. B. ethyleneoxy or propyleneoxy, wherein it is then at a to the middle

Total degree of alkoxylation, d. H. the sum of ethoxylation and propoxylation degree. Unless stated below or otherwise, it is in the

Alkyl radicals R of APG to linear radicals having the specified number of carbon atoms. When R is an unsaturated alkyl group, it may be 1 to 4 times, preferably 1 to 2 times, more preferably 1-time ethylenically unsaturated.

APG are nonionic surfactants and are known substances that can be obtained by the relevant methods of preparative organic chemistry. In particular, they are formed by an acid-catalyzed reaction between a saccharide, including a mono-, di-, Oligo- or polysaccharide, and a fatty alcohol, which can be obtained for example from vegetable raw materials, in particular palm kernel oil, coconut oil and rapeseed oil, representable.

The APGs used in the teaching of the invention include alkyl polypentosides (APP), i. Alkylpolyglycosides containing one or more pentose radicals (sugar with 5

Carbon atoms). In various embodiments of the invention, the alkyl polyglycosides are alkyl polypentosides of the formula R 0 (AO) _a [G] _x , as defined above, but at least one G is a pentose residue. In one embodiment, all G residues of the molecule are pentose residues, ie the sugar component consists exclusively of pentose residues. The

Pentose radicals include, but are not limited to xylose, arabinose, ribose, xylulose, and ribulose. Preference is given to xylose and arabinose, in particular D-xylose and L-arabinose. Such pentoses are available from the hemicellulose resulting from the hydrolysis of biomass, grass and straw, especially rye, oat, barley and wheat fibers and straw. Hemicellulose is a mixture of plant biomass

Polysaccharides, the most abundant monosaccharides being pentoses, such as D-xylose and L-arabinose. In addition, however, hemicellulose also contains hexoses (6-carbon sugars) such as glucose, mannose and galactose, as well as sugar derivatives such as e.g.

Uronic acids, including but not limited to hexuronic acids such as glucuronic acid,

Methylglucuronic acid and galacturonic acid, and deoxy sugars, such as. B. rhamnose. In general, the monosaccharides mentioned in the context of the invention can be present in the D or L form, but in each case the naturally more frequently occurring isomer is preferred.

From the pentoses xylose and arabinose or their homo- and heteropolymers can be obtained by glycosylation analogous to the preparation of known APG Alkylpolypentoside. Generally, the hemicellulose pentoses are more reactive than pure glucose in the known process, making the process more sustainable and energy efficient at 120 ° C. In addition, the degree of polymerization obtained is better controlled, resulting in APPs with higher lipophilicity. For that reason alone is the use of

Alkylpolypentosiden against the use of Alkylpolyglucosiden advantageous.

The index number x indicates the degree of oligomerization or polymerization (DP degree), ie. H. the distribution of mono- and oligoglycosides, and stands for a number between 1 and 10. While x must always be integer in a given compound and here can preferably assume the values x = 1 to 6, the value x for a particular alkyl glycoside is one analytically determined arithmetic size, which usually represents a fractional number. Preferably

Alkyl glycosides used with a mean degree of oligomerization x of 1, 1 to 3.0. From an application point of view, those alkyl glycosides whose degree of oligomerization is between 1.0 and 2.0, or less than 1.7, and in particular between 1.2 and 1.6, are preferred. As the glycosidic sugar, xylose or arabinose is preferably used. In various embodiments of the invention, however, the alkylpolypentosides of the invention may also contain in one molecule several different pentose residues, for example xylose and arabinose, or also pentoses in combination with hexoses. However, it is preferred that the alkylpolypentosides of the invention contain only pentosereste.

The alkyl or alkenyl radical R can be derived from primary alcohols having 8 to 18, preferably 8 to 14 carbon atoms. Typical examples are caproic alcohol, caprylic alcohol,

Capric alcohol, undecyl alcohol, lauryl alcohol, myristyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol, palmoleyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, isostearyl alcohol and oleyl alcohol and their technical mixtures, such as those incurred in the course of the hydrogenation of technical fatty acid methyl esters or in the hydrogenation of aldehydes from the ROELEN's oxo synthesis. Furthermore are

Elaidyl alcohol, petroselinyl alcohol, arachidyl alcohol, gadoleyl alcohol, behenyl alcohol,

To call erucyl alcohol and their technical mixtures.

Particularly preferred APG or APP are not alkoxylated (a = 0) and satisfy the formula R 0 [G] _x , in which R is as defined above for a linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated alkyl radical having 6 to 22 carbon atoms, each G is independently a glycosidically linked sugar residue, preferably a pentose residue, and x is a number from 1 to 10, preferably 1, 1 to 3, in particular 1, 2 to 1, 6, stands. Preferred alkylpolyglycosides are, for example, C ₈ -alkyl-alkylpolyloside or -arabinoside with a DP degree of 1, 1 to 3.

In various embodiments of the invention, this comprises at least one

Alkyl polyglycoside at least one, for example one, two, three or more alkyl polypentosides, in particular C ₈ . ₁₀ alkyl polypentosides, for example Alkylpolyxyloside or Alkylpolyarabinoside, with a DP between 1 and 2. In one embodiment, the at least one

Alkylpolyglycoside substantially or wholly thereof.

In further embodiments of the invention, the at least one alkylpolyglycoside may further contain one, for example one, two, three or more, alkylpolyglucosides, in particular C ₈ -alkyl-alkylpolyglucosides having a DP between 1 and 2. The at least one alkylpolyglycoside may, for example, be a mixture of C ₈ . ₁₀ alkyl polypentosides and alkyl polyglucosides each having a DP between 1 and 2.
