Abstract

The invention concerns a liquid cleaning agent, in particular for hand washing-up, based on an aqueous solution of anionic surfactants, optionally together with non-ionic and/or amphoteric and/or zwitterionic surfactants, solubilizers, solvents, corrosion inhibitors, preservatives, thickening agents as well as colorants and fragrances. The main aim of the invention is to increase the cleaning performance by improving the ability of the agent to emulsify grease and fat in the cleaning water. This is achieved by adding at least one water-soluble polymer which emulsifies grease and fat and increases the cleaning power, the polymer being selected from the group comprising xanthane and its derivatives.

Description

„Reinigungsmittel für harte Oberflächen mit verbesserter Fettlösekraft" "Cleaning agents for hard surfaces with improved grease-dissolving power"
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft flüssige Reinigungsmittel mit verbessertem Fett- emulgiervermögen und verstärkter Reinigungskraft.The present invention relates to liquid cleaning agents with improved fat-emulsifying power and increased cleaning power.
Flüssige Wasch-, Spül- und Reinigungsmittel stellen meist wäßrige Lösungen von anionischen und/oder nichtionischen Tensiden und üblichen Zusatzstoffen dar. Ein bevorzugtes Anwendungsgebiet ist das manuelle Spülen von Geschirr. Unter Geschirr wird im folgenden jeder Gegenstand verstanden, der in der Zubereitung oder im Verzehr von Lebensmittel eingesetzt werden kann, und der danach in der Regel gespült wird, um ihn von darauf anhaftenden Rückständen und Lebens¬ mittelresten zu befreien. Dies sind in der Regel Stärken, Fette und Eiweiße aber auch Farbstoffe, künstliche Zusatzstoffe und thermisch teilweise oder vollständig zersetzte organische Rückstände.Liquid detergents, dishwashing detergents and cleaning agents are usually aqueous solutions of anionic and / or nonionic surfactants and conventional additives. A preferred area of application is the manual washing of dishes. In the following, tableware is understood to mean any object that can be used in the preparation or consumption of foodstuffs and which is then generally rinsed in order to free it of residues and food residues adhering to it. These are usually starches, fats and proteins, but also colorants, artificial additives and thermally partially or completely decomposed organic residues.
Besonders Fettrückstände gehören zu den Problemanschmutzungen im Lebens¬ mittelbereich. Sie bilden nicht nur hartnäckige Flecken sondern führen auch zu einer Verringerung der Waschleistung eines manuellen Spülmittels.Grease residues in particular are among the problem soils in the food sector. Not only do they form stubborn stains, they also reduce the washing performance of a manual detergent.
Der Zusatz von natürlichen und synthetischen Polymeren zu Reinigungsmittel¬ zusammensetzungen zwecks Verbesserung der Waschleistung ist bekannt. So beschreibt die EP 124367 (Unilever) ein Handgeschirrspülmittel, das durch Poly¬ mere eine erhöhte Schaum- und Detergenzwirkung zeigt. Polymere gemäß dieser Anmeldung sind Zellulose mit hydrophilen Gruppen und Guar-Verbindungen. Ursache dieser verbesserten Schaum- und Detergenzwirkung ist die durch die Polymerzugabe erhöhte Viskosität der dort verwendeten Formulierungen.The addition of natural and synthetic polymers to cleaning agent compositions for the purpose of improving the washing performance is known. For example, EP 124367 (Unilever) describes a hand dishwashing detergent which, thanks to polymers, has an increased foam and detergent action. Polymers according to this application are cellulose with hydrophilic groups and guar compounds. The reason for this improved foaming and detergent effect is the increased viscosity of the formulations used there due to the addition of polymer.
Aus der GB 2103236 (Colgate) sind ternäre Tensidkombinationen bekannt (Ethersulfat, Alkoholsulfat, Betain), die durch Zusatz von Guarderivaten einen stabilen Schaum ergeben, der auch bei erhöhter Fettanschmutzung stabil bleibt. Die JP 6264090 beschreibt eine Reinigungsmittelzusammensetzung, die eine hohe Lagerstabilität, ein gutes Schaumvermögen und damit verbesserte Wascheigen¬ schaften durch eine Kombination von N-Acylglutamat und einem natürlichen Poly- saccharid wie Xanthan, Carrageenan und verwandten Stoffen erhältFrom GB 2103236 (Colgate) ternary surfactant combinations are known (ether sulfate, alcohol sulfate, betaine) which, by adding guar derivatives, result in a stable foam which remains stable even with increased grease contamination. JP 6264090 describes a detergent composition which has a high storage stability, good foaming power and thus improved washing properties through a combination of N-acylglutamate and a natural polysaccharide such as xanthan, carrageenan and related substances
Die EP 565950 beschreibt ein wäßriges Reinigungsmittel, in dem Tenside mit Sili¬ kon, Glykol und Xanthanderivaten in einer Menge gemischt werden, daß die erhal¬ tene Lösung noch klar bleibt. Die Reinigungswirkung dieses Mittels wird dadurch erhöht, daß sich das Polymer auf der Oberfläche absetzt und so eine Wieder- anschmutzung verhindert oder erschwert wird.EP 565950 describes an aqueous cleaning agent in which surfactants are mixed with silicone, glycol and xanthane derivatives in an amount such that the solution obtained remains clear. The cleaning effect of this agent is increased in that the polymer settles on the surface and thus prevents or makes it more difficult for it to be soiled again.
Die verbesserte Reinigungsleistung dieser Reinigungsmittelzusammensetzungen beruhen auf der wohlbekannten verdickenden Wirkung solcher natürlicher Polymere und der Schaumstabilisierung, die für das manuelle Geschirrspülen äußerst erwünscht ist.The improved cleaning performance of these detergent compositions is due to the well known thickening effect of such natural polymers and the foam stabilization which is extremely desirable for manual dishwashing.
Die JP 2107010 beschreibt schließlich, wie man wäßrige Emulsionen von tierischen oder pflanzlichen Fetten oder Ölen erhält, indem man Xanthanderivate oder andere natürliche Polymere oder deren Mischungen mit verschiedenen ölsorten versetzt.Finally, JP 2107010 describes how to obtain aqueous emulsions of animal or vegetable fats or oils by adding different types of oil to xanthane derivatives or other natural polymers or their mixtures.
Keine dieser Schriften beschreibt den Einsatz von natürlichen Polymeren wie Xanthanderivaten zur verbesserten Fettemulgierung in manuellen Geschirrspül¬ mitteln.None of these documents describes the use of natural polymers such as xanthane derivatives for improved fat emulsification in manual dishwashing detergents.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist die Verbesserung der Reinigungsleistung von manuellen Geschirrspülmitteln durch Zusatz von Polymeren wie des Xanthans und seiner Derivate durch die Verbesserung der Fettemulgierbarkeit in der Reini¬ gungsflotte, wobei die Viskosität der Reinigungslösungen keine oder eine sehr untergeordnete Rolle spielt. Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung ist nun ein flüssiges Reinigungsmittel, insbesondere für das manuelle Geschirrspülen, auf Basis einer wäßrigen Lösung von anionischen Tensiden, gegebenenfalls zusammen mit nichtionischen und/oder amphoteren Tensiden und/oder zwitterionischen Tensiden, Lösungsvermittlern, Lösungsmitteln, Korrosionsinhibitoren, Konservierungsmitteln, Verdickungsmitteln sowie Färb- und Duftstoffen, das dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß es zusätzlich mindestens ein fettemulgierendes, reinigungsverstärkendes, wasserlösliches Poly¬ mer enthält, welches ausgewählt ist aus der Gruppe des Xanthans und seiner Deri¬ vate. Dabei kann das erfindungsgemäße Polymer in dem Reinigungsmittel in einer Menge von 0,0001 bis 10 Gew.-% bezogen auf die gesamt Zusammensetzung vor¬ handen sein. Bevorzugt ist eine Menge zwischen 0,005 und 1 Gew.-%. Besonders bevorzugt ist eine Menge zwischen 0.05 und 1 Gew.-%.The object of the present invention is to improve the cleaning performance of manual dishwashing detergents by adding polymers such as xanthane and its derivatives by improving the fat emulsifiability in the cleaning liquor, the viscosity of the cleaning solutions playing no or a very minor role. The present invention now relates to a liquid cleaning agent, in particular for manual dishwashing, based on an aqueous solution of anionic surfactants, optionally together with nonionic and / or amphoteric surfactants and / or zwitterionic surfactants, solubilizers, solvents, corrosion inhibitors, preservatives, thickeners and Dyes and fragrances, which is characterized in that it additionally contains at least one fat-emulsifying, cleaning-enhancing, water-soluble polymer which is selected from the group of the xanthans and their derivatives.

Die Struktur der Untergruppen („repeated units") besteht aus Glucose, Mannose, Glucuronsäure, Acetat und Pyruvat. Die Anzahl der Pyruvat- Einheiten bestimmt die Viskosität des Xanthans. Xanthan wird in zweitägigen Batch-Kulturen mit einer Ausbeute von 70-90 %, bezogen auf eingesetztes Kohlenhydrat, produziert. Dabei werden Ausbeuten von 25-30 g/l erreicht. Die Aufarbeitung erfolgt nach Abtöten der Kultur durch Fällung mit z. B. 2-Propanol. Xanthan wird anschließend getrocknet und gemahlen.

Der Rührflügel befand sich dabei etwa an der Grenze der beiden Phasen. Anschließend wurde die Emulsion in einem 250 ml-Meßzylinder mit einem Durch¬ messer von 3,6 cm (2 ml-Graduierung, Industrienorm) gegossen und die sich abscheidende wäßrige Phase nach 1 Stunde und nach 4 Stunden ermittelt. Je weniger Wasser in der Zeiteinheit abgeschieden wurde, desto stabiler war die Emulsion und somit das Öl-/Fetttragevermögen der Reinigungsmittellösung, was eine wesentliche Reinigungsverstärkung bedeutet.A detergent formulation according to EP 513 138, comparable to Example 1 (with 10% fatty alcohol sulfate, 6% fatty alcohol ether sulfate, 1.5% betaine and 2% alkyl polyglycoside, 5% ethanol and 1.3% sodium chloride) was added with the addition of xanthan (Keltrol ® T) the influence on the so-called fat emulsifying ability tested by the stirring method. For this purpose, the emulsion stability of olive oil in the detergent solutions was determined. For this purpose, 50 g test solutions (10 g washing-up liquid / 40 g water) with city water of 16 ° d were prepared in a 400 ml beaker, covered with 50 g olive oil (Olio Dante ®) at room temperature (20 to 30 ° C) and covered with a Propeller stirrer (blade length 50 mm made of V2A steel) with a speed of 1200 revolutions per minute stirred exactly 2 minutes. The impeller was roughly at the border of the two phases. The emulsion was then poured into a 250 ml measuring cylinder with a diameter of 3.6 cm (2 ml graduation, industrial standard) and the aqueous phase which separated out was determined after 1 hour and after 4 hours. The less water was separated in the unit of time, the more stable the emulsion and thus the oil / fat-carrying capacity of the cleaning agent solution, which means a significant cleaning boost.
