Definitions
- Detergent compartment pouch comprising biosurfactants
- the invention relates to detergent compartment pouches comprising biosurfactants and a water- soluble film comprising polyvinyl alcohol.
- Detergent products in unit dose form have become one of the preferred forms for the user due to the easiness of use, in particular water-soluble pouches which present the added advantage of no need to unwrap.
- the water-soluble pouches are filled with liquid detergent solutions, which limits the variety of suited detergent compositions to be filled into the pouches.
- liquids may diffuse through the water-soluble film into a second compartment filled with powder compositions, which consequently agglutinate and thus do not dissolve fast and easily in the suds while washing.
- the water content of the contained liquid detergent usually is reduced to a minimum and/or non-aqueous solvents are used as liquefiers limiting the amount of suited detergent compositions even further.
- the thickness of the water-soluble film often is increased in order to have a more stable pouch, which, however, consumes more resources, which do not contribute to the washing efficiency of the product.
- unit dose detergents that do not dissolve in water too fast, to avoid swallowing of the detergent content when small kids are tempted to put the pouch into their mouths by the often-colourful product.
- the object of the present invention is to design a detergent product which obviates the above challenges. Description of the invention
- the present invention therefore provides a detergent compartment pouch having at least one water-soluble film forming at least one compartment, wherein the at least one compartment contains a liquid composition, said liquid composition comprises at least one biosurfactant, characterized in that said water-soluble film comprises polyvinyl alcohol.
- the invention further provides the use of a pouch according to the instant invention for cleaning a surface of an article
- One advantage of the present invention is that the detergent compartment pouch of the instant invention exhibits improved integrity and resistance to water.
- An advantage of the present invention is a better storage stability of the detergent compartment pouch of the instant invention.
- a further advantage of the detergent compartment pouch of the instant invention is that the pouches can make use of a thinner water-soluble film, thereby saving packaging material.

Abstract
The invention relates to detergent compartment pouches comprising biosurfactants and a water-soluble film comprising polyvinyl alcohol.
Description
Detergent compartment pouch comprising biosurfactants
Field of the invention
The invention relates to detergent compartment pouches comprising biosurfactants and a water- soluble film comprising polyvinyl alcohol.
Prior art
Detergent products in unit dose form have become one of the preferred forms for the user due to the easiness of use, in particular water-soluble pouches which present the added advantage of no need to unwrap.
Usually it is desired, that the water-soluble pouches are filled with liquid detergent solutions, which limits the variety of suited detergent compositions to be filled into the pouches.
Quite frequently some of the liquid might “sweat” through the water-soluble film, which yields in a sticky surface.
Also, some liquids may diffuse through the water-soluble film into a second compartment filled with powder compositions, which consequently agglutinate and thus do not dissolve fast and easily in the suds while washing.
Therefore, the water content of the contained liquid detergent usually is reduced to a minimum and/or non-aqueous solvents are used as liquefiers limiting the amount of suited detergent compositions even further.
Also, the thickness of the water-soluble film often is increased in order to have a more stable pouch, which, however, consumes more resources, which do not contribute to the washing efficiency of the product.
Furthermore, for safety reasons, it is desirable to formulate unit dose detergents, that do not dissolve in water too fast, to avoid swallowing of the detergent content when small kids are tempted to put the pouch into their mouths by the often-colourful product.
Thus, there is a need to provide detergent compartment pouches with a water-soluble film being quite resistant to the contained liquid detergent solution.
The object of the present invention is to design a detergent product which obviates the above challenges.
Description of the invention
It was found that, surprisingly, that detergent compartment pouches with water-soluble films comprising polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) and containing biosurfactants have outstanding properties regarding their stickiness during long time storage.
The present invention therefore provides a detergent compartment pouch having at least one water-soluble film forming at least one compartment, wherein the at least one compartment contains a liquid composition, said liquid composition comprises at least one biosurfactant, characterized in that said water-soluble film comprises polyvinyl alcohol.
The invention further provides the use of a pouch according to the instant invention for cleaning a surface of an article,
One advantage of the present invention is that the detergent compartment pouch of the instant invention exhibits improved integrity and resistance to water.
An advantage of the present invention is a better storage stability of the detergent compartment pouch of the instant invention.
A further advantage of the detergent compartment pouch of the instant invention is that the pouches can make use of a thinner water-soluble film, thereby saving packaging material.
Another advantage of the detergent compartment pouch of the instant invention is, that the contained liquid composition may be formulated without addition of ethanolamine while still preserving its pourable liquid character.
A further advantage of the instant invention is, that dyes comprised in the detergent compartment pouch according to the instant invention exhibit an enhanced colour stability.
Another advantage of the detergent compartment pouch of the instant invention is, that dyes comprised in the detergent compartment pouch according to the instant invention do not transfer to textiles during washing processes.
A further advantage of the instant invention is, that dyes comprised in the detergent compartment pouch according to the instant invention prevent children to taste the detergent pouch.
A further advantage of the instant invention is, that less dye can be incorporated in the detergent compartment pouch according to the instant invention without significant loss of brilliance of the dye.
The present invention therefore provides a detergent compartment pouch having at least one water-soluble film forming at least one compartment, wherein the at least one compartment contains a liquid composition, said liquid composition comprises at least one biosurfactant, characterized in that said water-soluble film comprises polyvinyl alcohol.
Within the context of the present invention, “biosurfactants” are understood as meaning all glycolipids produced by fermentation. The term “biosurfactant” also covers glycolipids that are chemically or enzymatically modified after fermentation, as long as structurally a glycolipid remains. Raw materials for producing the biosurfactants that can be used are carbohydrates, in particular sugars such as e.g. glucose and/or lipophilic carbon sources such as fats, oils, partial glycerides, fatty acids, fatty alcohols, long-chain saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbons.
In the context of the present invention, the terms “surfactant” is understood to mean organic substances having interface-active properties that have the ability to reduce the surface tension of water at 20°C and at a concentration of 0.5% by weight based on the overall composition to below 45 mN/m. Surface tension is determined by the Du Noliy ring method at 20°C.
In the context of the present invention, the terms “liquid” is understood to be liquid at a temperature of 25°C and a pressure of 1013 mbar.
Where average values are stated hereinbelow, then, unless stated otherwise, these are number- averaged average values.
Unless stated otherwise, percentages are data in per cent by weight.
Wherever measurement values are stated hereinbelow, then, unless stated otherwise, these have been determined at a temperature of 25°C and a pressure of 1013 mbar.
The pouch according to the instant invention preferably is characterized in that said biosurfactant is selected from rhamnolipids, sophorolipids, glucolipids, cellulose lipids, mannosylerythritol lipids and trehalose lipids, preferably rhamnolipids, sophorolipids and glucolipids, most preferably rhamnolipids.
Mixtures of different biosurfactants can be comprised in the liquid composition, of course.
The biosurfactants can be produced e.g. as in EP 0 499 434, US 7,985,722, WO 03/006146, JP 60 183032, DE 19648439, DE 19600743, JP 01 304034, CN 1337439, JP 2006 274233,

Preferably, the pouch according to the instant invention has as biosurfactant at least one selected from rhamnolipids, in particular mono-, di- or polyrhamnolipids, glucolipids, in particular mono-, di- or polyglucolipids, and sophorolipids, in particular mono-, di- or polysophorolipids, preferably selected from rhamnolipids and glucolipids, most preferably rhamnolipids.
The term "rhamnolipids" in the context of the present invention preferably is understood to mean particularly compounds of the general formula (I) and salts thereof,
where mRL = 2, 1 or 0, preferably 1 or 0, nRL = 1 or 0,
R1RL and R2RL = mutually independently, identical or different, organic residues having 2 to 24, preferably 5 to 13 carbon atoms, in particular optionally branched, optionally substituted, particularly hydroxy-substituted, optionally unsaturated, in particular optionally mono-, bi- or triunsaturated alkyl residues, preferably those selected from the group consisting of pentenyl, heptenyl, nonenyl, undecenyl and tridecenyl and (CH2)o-CH3 where o = 1 to 23, preferably 4 to 12. If nRL = 1 , the glycosidic bond between the two rhamnose units is preferably in the a-configuration.

The term "di-rhamnolipid" in the context of the present invention is understood to mean compounds of the general formula (I) or salts thereof, where nRL = 1 .
The term "mono-rhamnolipid" in the context of the present invention is understood to mean compounds of the general formula (I) or salts thereof, where nRL = 0.

The nomenclature used therefore does not distinguish between "CXCY" and "CYCX". For rhamnolipids where mRL=0, monoRL-CX or diRL-CX is used accordingly.
If one of the abovementioned indices X and/or Y is provided with ":Z", this signifies that the respective residue R1RL and/or R2RL is equal to an unbranched, unsubstituted hydrocarbon residue having X-3 or Y-3 carbon atoms having Z double bonds.

Examples:
Example 1: Integrity and solution time measured upon contact with water.
Preparation of liquid detergent formulations:
Exemplary formulations described below were prepared according to the following protocol: Initially, a measured amount of water was introduced into a glass beaker of a suitable size. Subsequently, ingredients 1 - 5 were added at room temperature and under vigorous stirring. All formulations contained ingredients 2 - 5, while ingredients 1a, 1 b, and 1 c, were added only to test formulation 1 , Benchmark formulation 1 , and Benchmark formulation 2, respectively. The ingredients were added in no specific or uniform sequence as the order of addition to the solution was not critical. Subsequently, any remaining amount of water was introduced to ensure desired concentration of ingredients. Finally, ingredient 6 (monoethanolamine) was added in the solution and the mixture was stirred vigorously for 1 h at temperature between 60 and 65°C. In the next step, the mixture was cooled down to 35°C and Ingredient 7 (citric acid) was added under continuous stirring until pH of formulation was adjusted to 8.0. Subsequently, ingredient 8 (Enzymes) were introduced in the formulation and the mixture was stirred for 5 minutes to ensure a homogenous solution. The exemplary compositions were easily pourable and stable at room temperature for extended period.
The above-mentioned method was utilized to prepare three formulation, Test formulation 1 , Benchmark formulation 1 and Benchmark formulation 2. All of them are composed of analogous ingredients at the same concentration and differ with the type of anionic surfactant used, so Dirhamnolipid, sodium salt, Linear alkylbenzene sulfonate, sodium salt, and Sodium laureth sulfate in Test formulation 1 , Benchmark formulation 1 and Benchmark formulation 2, respectively. It is worth noting that Linear alkylbenzene sulfonate, sodium salt, and Sodium laureth sulfate are standard surfactants routinely used in detergent formulations of water-soluble pouches.
Rhamnolipids used were prepared as described in example 1 of EP3061442 and resemble dirhamnolipids; mono-rhamnolipids were prepared as in example 2 of EP3061442.
Compositions of Benchmark formulation 1 , Test formulation 1 , and Test formulation 2 evaluated for their compatibility with water-soluble films:
Preparation of detergent pouches:
Detergent pouches were prepared using water-soluble PVOH foil. Initially, two pieces of film were heat-sealed from three sides using a manual-sealing device to form a pouch of 6 cm x 10 cm in size. Created pouch was subsequently filled with 25 g of liquid detergent solution (Test formulation 1 , Benchmark formulation 1 or Benchmark formulation 2) and closed with a heat-sealing device. External edges outside the sealing were removed by cutting to form the final pouch.
Solubility test of water-soluble pods:
Prior to the water solubility test, pouches filled with Test formulationl , Benchmark formulation 1 , and Benchmark formulation 2, respectively, were stored at room temperature and at ambient humidity for 48 hours. This allowed sufficient conditioning time for the liquid detergent content to affect properties of water-soluble film.
Test was performed according to the following protocol:
For the test, 1 L of water was placed in a suitable glass container and conditioned to 40°C. A pouch containing liquid detergent was attached by its corner to a metal holder and allowed to hand freely. Subsequently, the pouch was immersed in water. It was ensured that the pouch was hanging vertically without touching the bottom of glass container. No stirring was applied during the measurement. According to the described test, time between immersing of the pouch in water and the first leakage of detergent through was measured. Additionally, time required for the pouch
immersed in water to lose its physical integrity and fall from the metal holder on the bottom of the glass container was also recorded. The average results recorded for pouches containing each of the formulations are presented below.
As summarized above water-soluble pouches containing Test formulation 1 surprisingly exhibit improved integrity after immersing them in water than pouches containing Benchmark formulation 1 and Benchmark formulation 2. Therefore, it was surprisingly discovered that rhamnolipid-containing liquid detergents have positive effect on integrity of water-soluble pouches by making them less susceptible to premature opening upon contact with water.
Example 2: Liquid formulation free of monoethanolamine
Preparation of liquid detergent formulations:
Exemplary formulations described below were prepared according to the following protocol: Initially, a measured amount of water was introduced into a glass beaker of a suitable size. Subsequently, ingredients 1 - 5 were added at room temperature and under vigorous stirring. All formulations contained ingredients 2 - 5, while ingredients 1a, 1 b, and 1 c, were added only to test formulation 2, Benchmark formulation 3, and Benchmark formulation 4, respectively. The ingredients were added in no specific or uniform sequence as the order of addition to the solution was not critical. Subsequently, any remaining amount of water was introduced to ensure desired concentration of ingredients. Finally, ingredient 6 (sodium hydroxide) was added in the solution and the mixture was stirred vigorously for 1 h at temperature between 60 and 65°C. In the next step, the mixture was cooled down to 35°C and Ingredient 7 (citric acid) was added under continuous stirring until pH of formulation was adjusted to 8.0. Subsequently, ingredient 8 (Enzymes) were introduced in the formulation and the mixture was stirred for 5 minutes to ensure a homogenous solution. The exemplary compositions were easily pourable and stable at room temperature for extended period.
The above-mentioned method was utilized to prepare three formulation, Test formulation 2, Benchmark formulation 3 and Benchmark formulation 4. All of them are composed of analogous ingredients at the same concentration and differ with the type of anionic surfactant used, so Dirhamnolipid, sodium salt, Linear alkylbenzene sulfonate, sodium salt, and Sodium laureth sulfate in Test formulation 2, Benchmark formulation 3 and Benchmark formulation 4, respectively.
Compositions of Benchmark formulation 2, Test formulation 3, and Test formulation 4 evaluated for their properties:
It was surprisingly discovered that after cooling down all three formulations (Test formulation 2, Benchmark formulation 3, and Benchmark formulation 4), only Test formulation 2 maintained its liquid character while Benchmark formulation 3, and Benchmark formulation 4 solidified. Therefore, Test formulation 2 can be processed at room temperature and maintains its liquid character after being placed inside the water-soluble pouch, Benchmark formulation 3 and Benchmark formulation 4 solidify at room temperature therefore hindering their usage as liquid detergent for water-soluble pouches. Therefore, it was surprisingly discovered that biosurfactants allow for formulating concentrated liquid detergents for water-soluble pouches without any addition of monoethanolamine.
The formulations are packed into pouches according to the method in example 1 . The pouches are stored without covering on the lab bench over a period of 3 months.
Pouches containing Benchmark formulation 5 and Benchmark formulation 6 apparently bear a paler colour compared to the pouches containing Test formulation 3. The rhamnolipid and the colorant, acid blue 3, comprising pouches exhibit a better brilliance of the color compared to the others.
Further example of formulations:
Further exemplary liquid detergent compositions containing rhamnolipids were prepared according to the formulations described in the table below. All exemplary formulations were subsequently used to obtain water-soluble detergent pouches. For this reason, two pieces of water-soluble PVOH film were heat-sealed from three sides using a manual-sealing device to form a pouch of 6 cm x 10 cm in size. The created pouch was subsequently filled with 25 g of liquid detergent solution (Formulation 1 - 26) and closed with a heat-sealing device. External edges outside the sealing were removed by cutting to form the final pouch. Sophorolipid used is a sophorolipid REWOFERM SL ONE from Evonik, which has a lactone to acid ratio of 40:60.
