Definitions
- the present invention relates to the use of modified polymers known for their soil-release properties, as cleaning agents for grease stain removal of fabrics in combination with a non-ionic surfactant.
- Products used in laundering operation contain a number of ingredients which provide certain basic benefits.
- laundry cleaning products are formulated with detergent surfactant systems to remove a variety of soils from clothes during washing.
- These laundry products can also include ingredients which provide through-the-wash fabric conditioning benefits such as softening and antistatic performance.
- laundry detergent can also impart other desirable properties.
- the hydrophobic character of polyester fabrics makes their laundering difficult, particularly as regards oily soil and oily stains.
- the oily soil or stain preferentially "wets" the fabric. As a result, the oily soil or stain is difficult to remove in an aqueous laundering process.
- polyesters have been found to be particularly useful as soil release compounds in laundry detergent composition. During the laundering operation, these soil release polyesters adsorb onto the surface of fabrics immersed in the wash solution. The adsorbed polyesters then form a hydrophilic film which remains on the fabric after it is removed from the wash solution and dried. This film can be renewed by subsequent washing of the fabric with a detergent composition containing the soil release polyesters.
- polyesters are disclosed in e.g. US Patent 4 116 885 and 4 711 730.
- the detergent composition according to the invention comprises a modified polyester being a random copolymer of dimethyl terephtalate, dimethyl sulfoisophtalate ethylene glycol and 1-2 propane diol, the end groups consisting primarily of sulfobenzate and secondarily of mono esters of ethylene glycol and/or propane-diol and a non-ionic surfactant C8 ⁇ 18 primary alcohol ethoxylate containing from 2 to 5 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of alcohol.
- the non-ionic surfactant is C12 ⁇ 15 primary alcohol ethoxylate containing 3 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of alcohol.
- Present in the detergent composition in a ratio 1 : 0.3 to 1 : 2.0 provides a surprising thickening effect. This provides the formulator with a potentially effective method by which said selected non-ionic surfactant can be processed into granular dertergents.
- the claimed modified polyester can have a thickening effect on said selected nonionic surfactant.
- the modified polyesters herein are random copolymers of dimethyl terephtalate, dimethyl sulfoisophtalate, ethylene glycol and 1-2 propane diol, the end groups consisting primarily of sulphobenzoate and secondarily of mono esters of ethylene glycol and/or propane-diol.
- the target being to obtain is a polymer capped at both end by sulphobenzoate groups, "primarily", in the present context most of said copolymers herein will be end-capped by sulphobenzoate groups. However, some copolymers will be less than fully capped, and therefore their end groups may consist of monoester of ethylene glycol and/or propane 1-2 diol, thereof consist “secondarily” of such species.
- the selected polyesters herein contain about 46% by weight of dimethyl terephtalic acid, about 16% by weight of propane -1.2 diol, about 10% by weight ethylene glycol about 13% by weight of dimethyl sulfobenzoid acid and about 15% by weight of sulfoisophtalic acid, and have a molecular weight of about 3.000.
- the polyesters and their method of preparation are described in detail in EPA 311 342.
- the non-ionic surfactants are non-ionic surfactants.
- the non-ionic surfactants according to the present invention are C8 ⁇ 18 primary alcohol ethoxylates containing from 2 to 5 mole of ethylene oxide per mole of alcohol.
- modified polyesters herein are present in the detergent composition at a ratio to the non-ionic surfactants of, from 1 : 0.3 to 1 : 20, preferred is 1 : 6 to 1 : 20.
- the detergent compositions herein can be in a liquid or granular form and are preferably delivered directly to the drum and not indirectly and via the outer casing of the machine. This can most easily be achieved by incorporation of the composition in a bag or container from which it can be released at the start of the wash cycle in response to agitation, a rise in temperature or immersion in the wash water in the drum. Such a container will be placed in the drum, together with the fabrics to be washed. Alternatively the washing machine itself may be adapted to permit direct addition of the composition to the drum e.g. by a dispensing arrangement in the access door.
- a rigid container such as disclosed in EPA 151 549 can be used the detergent composition herein are preferably in granular form, and the container will be flexible, such as a bag or pouch.
- the bag may be of fibrous construction coated with a water impermeable protective material so as to retain the contents, such as is disclosed in EPA no. 0 018 678.
- it may be formed of a water insoluble synthetic polymeric material provided with an edge seal or closure designed to rupture in aqueous media as disclosed in EPAs nos. 0 011 500, 0 011 501, 0 011 502, and 0 011 968.
- a convenient form of water frangible closure comprises a water soluble adhesive disposed along and sealing one edge of a pouch formed of a water impermeable polymeric film such as polyethylene or polypropylene.
- laminated sheet products can be employed in which a central flexible layer is impregnated and/or coated with a composition and then one or more outer layers are applied to produce a fabric-like aesthetic effect.
- the layers may be sealed together so as to remain attached during use or may separate on contact with water to facilitate the release of the coated or impregnated material.
- An alternative laminate form comprises one layer embossed or deformed to provide a series of pouch-like containers into each of which the detergent components are deposited in measured amounts, with a second layer overlying the first layer and sealted thereto in those areas between the pouch-like containers where the two layers are in contact.
- the components may be deposited in particulate, paste or molten form and the laminate layers should prevent egress of the contents of the pouch-like containers prior to their addition to water.
- the layers may separate or may remain attached together on contact with water, the only requirement being that the structure should permit rapid release of the contents of the pouch-like containers into solution.
- the number of pouch-like containers per unit area of substrata is a matter of choice but will normally vary between 500 and 25,000 per square meter.

- a bundle of soiled fabrics containing fabrics which were stained with a range of stains such as particulate soils, greasy soils, enzymatic soils and bleachable soils on cotton and polycotton fabrics were washed in a compact detergent with the formulation as shown.
- One half of each bundle was washed with detergent composition as shown and the other half was washed with the same composition without the cellulase.
- the testing was carried out at 40°C in water of 25°H (German hardness). All testing was repeated 4 times.
- Stain removal was evaluated relative to a reference stain of each type previously washed under identical conditions.
- the formulation used for the washing of the reference fabrics contained no modified polyester or cellulase.
- a detergent of formulation similar to that described in example 1 was used to wash a bundle of soiled fabrics which were stained with a range of soils of particulate, greasy, enzymatic and bleachable types.
- One half of each bundle was washed in the formulation described in example 1, the other half of the bundle was washed in the identical formula without modified polyester.
- the conditions used for washing these bundles were 40°C and 25°H water. 4 replicates of each test were carried out and the samples were graded accordingly to the % stain removal. This was calculated using the McBeth (colour spectrometer) using the conventional 1 a b system.
- the tests were repeated using different levels of modified polyesters between 0.025% and 10% by weight of the detergent composition. The results are detailed below: Level 0.025% 0.1% 0.5% 10% Stain removal average greasy on polycotton 52% 64% 69% 73%
- Typical greasy stains considered include dirty motor oil, shoe polish and make up.
- Polycotton swatches were pretreated a number of times with a detersive formulation containing the carboxy methyl cellulose (CMC). The purpose of this was to give the fabric a history of CMC deposition onto the cotton of the polycotton. The polycotton was then dryed and stained with dirty motor oil (DMO). One half of the stains was washed in a detersive formulation similar to that described in example one to act as a reference whilst the other half was washed in the same formulation only containing the modified polyester herein. The swatches were graded by calculating the % stain removal from each tracer using the hunter colour lab system.
