Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an automatic dishwashing detergent composition containing builder, bleach component, a graft copolymer having a polysaccharide backbone and one or more side chains of one or more synthetic monomeric units, a polyoxyethylene-based nonionic surfactant and optionally one or more other ingredients.
  • the automatic dishwashing (ADW) detergent composition of the present invention combines a very good cleaning action with minimal spotting and film-forming.
  • ADW detergents constitute a distinct class of detergent compositions. Unlike most other detergents, ADW detergents have to be low-foaming. In addition, a spotless and film-free appearance of glasses and silverware is the expected final result of each automatic dishwashing run.
  • ADW detergents are mixtures of ingredients whose purpose, in combination, is to break down and remove food soils; to inhibit foaming caused by certain food soils; and to remove stains which can be caused by beverages such as coffee and tea or by vegetable soils such as carotenoid soils.
  • Spotting and filming of glassware are the chief criteria by which the performance of a dishwashing formulation is judged.
  • Spotting is an obvious reference to discrete residues on glassware which are formed when water droplets evaporate and leave behind dissolved solids.
  • Filming refers to a more uniform deposition over a large, continuous portion of the glass surface. This film can sometimes be of organic origin (resulting from soil in the wash liquor or organic components in the detergent) but is also often inorganic in nature, due to the formation and deposition of some mineral precipitate.
  • ADW detergents may comprise a variety of detergent ingredients, including alkalinity sources, builders, bleaching systems, anti-scalants, corrosion inhibitors, surfactants, antifoams, sheeting polymers and/or enzymes.
  • Builder materials are used to provide alkalinity and buffering capacity, maintain ionic strength, extract metals from soils and/or remove alkaline earth metal ions from washing solutions.
  • Examples of builder materials include phosphates, alkali metal citrates, carbonates and bicarbonates; and the salts of nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA); methylglycine diacetic acid (MGDA); glutaric diacetic acid (GLDA), polycarboxylates such as polymaleates, polyacetates, polyhydroxyacrylates,
  • polyacrylate/polymaleate and polyacrylate/polymethacrylate copolymers as well as zeolites; layered silicas and mixtures thereof.
  • Phosphate-free or low-phosphate compositions rely on non-phosphate builders, such as salts of citrate, carbonate, silicate, disilicate, bicarbonate, aminocarboxylates and others to sequester calcium and magnesium from hard water, and upon drying, can leave an insoluble visible deposit.
  • non-phosphate builders such as salts of citrate, carbonate, silicate, disilicate, bicarbonate, aminocarboxylates and others to sequester calcium and magnesium from hard water, and upon drying, can leave an insoluble visible deposit.
  • Polymers made from (meth)acrylic acid and maleic acid are known for use in inhibiting the scale or other insoluble deposits produced from non-phosphate builders.
  • Surfactants are amphiphilic compounds, i.e. compounds that contain hydrophobic as well as hydrophilic groups, a property which enables them to mix the hydrophobic soils from the dishes with the rinsing water.
  • Nonionic surfactants are preferably used for dish washing applications as they are known to be low or moderate foamers, mild to human skin and have superior performance in removing oily soil.
  • Nonionic surfactants are further well suited for mixing with other materials contained in the detergent formulation as they are known to be chemically inert and stable toward pH change.
  • Nonionic surfactants typically have noncharged hydrophilic headgroups and are commonly based on polyoxyethylene or a glycoside.
  • Examples 24 and 28 describe automatic zero phosphate dishwash formulations containing the copolymer, builder and bleach.
  • WO 2013/092276 describes a detergent composition comprising 20-99.7 wt.% of a continuous phase containing glutamic-N,N-diacetate (GLDA), water and optionally other components; and 0.3-80 wt.% of a dispersed phase comprising at least 0.3% of bleach particles by weight of the composition.
  • DehyponTM Wet is mentioned as an example of a nonionic surfactant that can be applied in the detergent composition.
  • US 2016/0348036 describes a zero-phosphate machine dish wash composition in unit dose format comprising
  • the machine dishwash composition may include a nonionic surfactant of the formula R 3 — (PO) x (EO)y— CH2CH(OH)— R 4 ; wherein R 3 is C 6 -Ci 5 ; R 5 is C 4 -Cio, and x is an integer in the range of 0-10, and y is an integer in the range of 3-30.
  • Suitable nonionics of this type include modified fatty alcohol polyglycolethers available as Dehypon® 3697 GRA or Dehypon® Wet from BASF.
  • WO 2014/021902 describes an ADW detergent composition containing a hybrid copolymer that is based on maltodextrin and (among others) methacrylate.
  • a hybrid copolymer that is based on maltodextrin and (among others) methacrylate.
  • compositions are described containing approximately 6 wt.% of hybrid copolymer and 3.7 wt% of Dehypon LS-36 (an ethylene oxide/propylene oxide fatty alcohol).
  • WO 2013/022762 describes ADW detergent compositions containing a hybrid copolymer that is based on maltodextrin and acrylic acid in a 1 : 1 w/w ratio. In the examples compositions are described containing 2-6 wt.% of this hybrid copolymer and 1 .7 wt.% of Pluronic N-3 (an ethylene oxide/propylene oxide block copolymer).
  • Pluronic N-3 an ethylene oxide/propylene oxide block copolymer.

  • a cup containing 50 grams of frozen Stiwa soil is dosed manually (e.g. opening the dishwasher and putting the cup upside down in the top rack) when the dispenser opens.
  • the dishwasher After every wash the dishwasher is opened and the dishes are allowed to dry completely and cool down to room temperature. After 30 washes the dishes are evaluated.
  • the aesthetic scores were obtained by placing the dishware at 1 15 cm of a grey wall (RAL 7030) and 45 to 50 cm of the ceiling of the room.
  • the dishware is illuminated with 4 light sources type Philips master TL-D 36 W / 865 2M, 120 cm long and is evaluated on overall appearance i.e. taking into account spots, film, etc. A scale going from 1 to 10 is used, 10 corresponding to a perfect dish.
  • the performance of the ADW detergent compositions was evaluated using the same test procedure as in Example 1 , except that another set of articles was cleaned in the dishwasher, the evaluation was limited to only spotting and the total number of washes was limited to 10.
