Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the provision of an improved and novel bleaching composition, more specifically variations of the bleaching composition are described that provide further improvements to the destaining and/or disinfection capabilities of the bleaching composition disclosed herein.
  • Bleaching systems for use in laundry detergents comprise the components of a bleaching composition, but certain components of the composition are provided in separate containers (for storage and transport purposes); the components of the composition only being mixed together immediately prior to use.
  • Bleaching compositions for use in laundry are also known, i.e. wherein all the components of composition that can be used for bleaching purposes are provided as a single mixture.
  • Such bleaching systems and compositions have been a common part of laundry detergents for many years. Many stains such as carrot, wine and tomato contain chromophores which are susceptible to oxidation and in the process of being oxidised lose their colour intensity.
  • Bleaching systems/compositions also have bactericidal properties which can control specific pathogens, such as MRSA, or simply reduce odours formed by bacterial contamination of the wash water.
  • bleaching compounds are chlorine based. Predominantly Sodium hypochlorite, although other chlorine based compounds, such as Calcium hypochlorite and Chlorine dioxide are also available.
  • This class of bleaching compounds also includes those compounds wherein the chlorine is generated in-situ, either from a parent molecule, such as Sodium dichloroisocyanurate which releases the bleaching agent Hypochlorous acid on dissolution in water, or from the generation of chlorine based compounds using electricity such as the electrolysis of Sodium chloride to also form Hypochlorous acid.
  • chlorinated compounds whilst cheap and effective, suffer drawbacks.
  • the compounds themselves can be relatively hazardous to the user and they often contain more hazardous impurities, such as Sodium chlorate which is present in Sodium hypochorite. They can also react with the target soil to lead to more hazardous components, such as Chloramines that are formed from the reaction of Sodium hypochlorite and Urine.
  • Chloramines that are formed from the reaction of Sodium hypochlorite and Urine.
  • the process of reacting active chlorine with the target soil often leads to that soil, or the fabric the soil sits on, developing an undesirable green colour. This is one reason why chlorine based bleaching agents are not used in hair care products - they can easily turn hair green.
  • Oxygen based bleaching agents The next most common class of bleaching agent/composition is Oxygen based bleaching agents.
  • the simplest form of Oxygen based bleaching agent, Hydrogen peroxide does not suffer the above disadvantages of Chlorine based bleaching agents. However it has far inferior bleaching performance, particularly in the field of disinfection where microorganisms often release the enzyme Catalase to deactivate the approaching Hydrogen peroxide. Therefore Hydrogen peroxide is rarely sold without other chemical components to activate it.
  • the most commonly‘activated’ Oxygen based bleaching system is Peracetic acid, formed in-situ from a source of Hydrogen peroxide and an activator such as Tetraacetylethylenediamine (TAED).
  • TAED Tetraacetylethylenediamine
  • peroxide and bleach activator system/composition A problem with the peroxide and bleach activator system/composition is that these peracid precursors tend to naturally react together during storage in aqueous media to produce the unstable peracid. To prevent such reactions from occurring during storage the components are normally supplied in powdered form. Hydrogen peroxide is usually formulated in the form of Sodium percarbonate or Sodium perborate. The bleach activator only reacts with the peroxide source once they have both dissolved into the wash solution.
  • bleach activators are available which also take a peroxide and increase its reactivity using either a catalyst or reacting it with another molecule such as a Nitrile quat. In each case the same problem is encountered: each component must be supplied separate to each other, or in anhydrous form, to prevent the activation reaction from occurring prior to use.
  • this bleaching agent should preferably be less hazardous than the Chlorine based agents.
  • Ascorbic acid is a natural molecule, commonly known as Vitamin C. It is renowned as an anti oxidant, but it has also been shown to present pro-oxidative properties under some conditions. It has been the subject of a number of patents claiming antibacterial efficacy.

It has been shown that both Hexylene glycol and Glucose provide a boost to bleaching performance, albeit not to the extent of the more effective Glycol ethers, such as Butoxy ethanol.

  • the percentage ranges given refer to the final ready to use bleaching solution, i.e. the %wt of a component in a solution comprising the components of the bleaching composition made up to a total weight of 100 g with water. If, as anticipated, the product is supplied in substantially anhydrous form for the purpose of storage stability, then the ranges should be scaled to allow for the subsequent addition of water.
  • bleaching formulations it is common in bleaching formulations to also incorporate other non-active ingredients to improve the physical characteristics, performance or stability of the bleaching product.
  • non-active ingredients include pH regulators, dyes, diluents, perfumes, surfactants, rheology modifiers, suspending agents, corrosion inhibitors, water softeners, processing aids, defoamers.
  • the choice of surfactant can have an influence on performance. It is known that low levels of surfactant can aid the biocidal efficacy of formulations by increasing the permeability of the cell membrane to the biocidal active. Fikewise, the surfactant has the potential to improve the wetting of the heterogeneous catalyst, thereby improving the contact between the formulation and the catalyst. Surfactants reduce the surface tension of the liquid (a bleaching composition), making it easier for the bleaching composition to interact with a stain or a pathogen.
  • surfactants may inhibit the biocidal efficacy of the formulation, by preferentially locking an essential component of the formulation inside a micelle. They may also bind to the catalyst surface and reduce its activity. There may be other factors to consider when choosing the type and inclusion level of the surfactant, such as the requirement to solubilise perfume or disperse fatty stains, which may in some part be either synergistic or detrimental to the bleaching performance. Therefore the choice of surfactant, if one is used, is broad. Those skilled in the art will note that contained in the structure of some surfactants are functional groups detailed in the present application as accelerators. Such surfactants include Fatty alcohol alkoxylates and Alkyl poly glucosides.
  • a further benefit of the present invention is that many of the stability issues common with bleaching systems can be overcome by supplying the catalyst in a heterogeneous form. In this way, the catalyst can be provided as a separate part of the system and therefore does not exert an influence on the formulation during storage.
  • This benefit may be utilised to provide superior long term storage of a concentrated liquitab or powder, similar to that described in the first embodiment, or enable a diluted bleaching solution to retain its bleaching properties for a longer period of time at the point of use by delaying activation of the bleaching solution until it is applied to the surface to be disinfected.
