Definitions
- the present invention relates to machine dishwashing gel compositions that deliver high performance cleaning and that do not discolor in storage.
- the composition must be a uniform mixture to deliver an optimum combination of active ingredients to the wash with each dose.
- the liquid must possess physical stability against syneresis or physical separation of its active components during storage.
- a liquid product must be compatible with automatic dishwashing equipment presently available to the consumer.
- Home dishwashers are fitted with a closed cup to house detergent through several cycles preliminary to the wash cycle. Cups in these machines do not seal tightly and do not adequately retain liquids of low viscosity. Excessive leakage leads to underdosing in the wash cycle. Performance may be adversely affected. Consequently, any liquid product must possess high viscosity to be effectively retained in the cup and avoid leakage during cycles preceding that of the main wash.
- a low viscosity is desirable for easy dispensing of product from its bottle.
- Formulations that contain oxygen bleach systems can lead to problems of tarnishing of silverware in the wash. Therefore, tarnish inhibitors such as benzotriazole and its derivatives are generally incorporated into machine dishwashing formulations containing oxygen bleaches in order to mitigate this negative effect. Again, tarnish inhibitors are more easily incorporated into a powder or a tablet product form than into a gel.
- the detergent builder is preferably either a monomeric carboxylate, a polymeric carboxylate or a mixture thereof, or a mixture of phosphate salts (e.g. a tripolyphosphate or pyrophosphate).

These compounds are frequently referred to as betaines. Besides alkyl betaines, alkyl amino and alkyl amido betaines are encompassed within this invention.
- R 15 O(R 16 O) n (Z 1 ) p
- R 15 is a monovalent organic radical (e.g., a monovalent saturated aliphatic, unsaturated aliphatic or aromatic radical such as alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkenyl, hydroxyalkenyl, aryl, alkylaryl, hydroxyalkylaryl, arylalkyl, alkenylaryl, arylalkenyl, etc.) containing from about 6 to about 30 (preferably from about 8 to 18 and more preferably from about 9 to about.
- a monovalent organic radical e.g., a monovalent saturated aliphatic, unsaturated aliphatic or aromatic radical such as alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkenyl, hydroxyalkenyl, aryl, alkylaryl, hydroxyalkylaryl, arylalkyl, alkenylaryl, arylalkenyl, etc.
- R 16 is a divalent hydrocarbon radical containing from 2 to about 4 carbon atoms such as ethylene, propylene or butylene (most preferably the unit ( R 16 O ) n represents repeating units of ethylene oxide, propylene oxide and/or random or block combinations thereof); n is a number having an average value of from 0 to about 12; Z 1 represents a moiety derived from a reducing saccharide containing 5 or 6 carbon atoms (most preferably a glucose unit); and p is a number having an average value of from 0.5 to about 10 preferably from about 0.5 to about 5 .

- Representative inorganic fillers include sodium sulfate, sodium chloride and potassium chloride.
- a preferred filler is sodium sulfate. Its concentration may range from 0% to 20%, preferably from 2% to 10% by weight of the cleaning composition.
- Thickeners are often desirable for liquid cleaning compositions.
- Thixotropic thickeners such as smectite clays including montmorillonite (bentonite), hectorite, saponite, and the like may be used to impart viscosity to liquid cleaning compositions.
- Silica, silica gel, and aluminosilicate may also be used as thickeners.
- Use of clay thickeners for machine dishwashing compositions is disclosed for example in US-A-4,431,559; US-A-4,511,487; US-A-4,740,327; US-A-4,752,409.
- Commercially available synthetic smectite clays include Laponite supplied by Laporte Industries.
- bentonite clays include Korthix H and VWH ex Combustion Engineering, Inc.; Polargel T ex American Colloid Co.; and Gelwhite clays (particularly Gelwhite GP and H) ex English China Clay Co.

- the amount of clay thickener employed in the compositions is from 0.1 to 10%, preferably 0.5 to 5%.
- the amount of thickener employed in the compositions is from 0 to 5%, preferably 0.5-3%.
- agent useful in the gel composition of the invention is a cross-linked polycarboxylate, preferably a polyacrylate acrylic acid polymer.
- Particularly preferred are salts of polyacrylic acid of molecular weight of from 300,000 up to 6 million and higher which are cross-linked.
- Acrylic acid polymers that are cross-linked manufactured by, for example, B.F. Goodrich and sold under the trade name "Carbopol” or by 3V Inc. and sold under the tradename Polygel DA have been found to be effective for production of the inventive formulas.
- stabilizers such as long-chain calcium and sodium soaps and C 12 to C 18 sulfates are detailed in US-A-3,956,158 and US-A-4,271,030 and the use of other metal salts of long-chain soaps is detailed in US-A-4,752,409.
- Other stabilizers include Laponite and metal oxides and their salts as described in US-A-4,933,101.
- the amount of stabilizer which may be used in the liquid cleaning compositions is from 0.01 to 5% by weight of the composition, preferably 0.01-2%. Such stabilizers are optional in gel formulations.
- Stabilizers which are found especially suitable for gels include trivalent metal ions at 0.01-4% of the compositions, Laponite and/or water-soluble structuring chelants at 0.01-5%. These stabilizers are more fully described in US-A-5,141,664.
- the formulations of the cleaning composition comprising surfactant may further include a defoamer.
- Suitable defoamers include mono-and distearyl acid phosphate, silicone oil and mineral oil. Even if the cleaning composition has only defoaming surfactant, the defoamer assists to minimize foam which food soils can generate.
- the compositions may include 0.02 to 2% by weight of defoamer, or preferably 0.05-1.0%.
- Enzymes capable of facilitating the removal of soils from a substrate may also be present in an amount of up to about 10% by wt., preferably 1 to about 5 wt. %.
- Such enzymes include proteases (e.g., Alcalase7, Savinase7 and Esperase7 from Novo Industries A/S and Purafect OxP, ex. Genencor), amylases (e.g., Termamyl7 and Duramyl7 from Novo Industries and Purafect OxAm, ex. Genencor) and lipases (e.g. Lipolase7 from Novo Industries).
- bleach scavengers including but not limited to sodium bisulfite, sodium perborate, reducing sugars, and short chain alcohols; solvents and hydrotropes such as ethanol, isopropanol and xylene sulfonates; enzyme stabilizing agents; soil suspending agents; antiredeposition agents; anti-corrosion agents, such as isocyanuric acid described in US-A-5,374,369; ingredients to enhance decor care such as certain aluminum salts described in U.S. Serial No. 08/444,502 and 08/444,503; and anti-foaming agents such as those described in U.S. Serial No. 08/540,285 and 08/539,923; colorants; perfumes; and other functional additives.
- bleach scavengers including but not limited to sodium bisulfite, sodium perborate, reducing sugars, and short chain alcohols; solvents and hydrotropes such as ethanol, isopropanol and xylene sulfonates; enzyme stabilizing agents
- the following inventive gel composition was prepared: Ingredient Sample A % by Weight Citrate 30.0 Sokalan CP7 5.0 TiO 2 0.1 Sulfite 0.1 Carbopol 627 1.5 Glycerol 6.0 Sodium Tetraborate 3.0 Enzymes 1.2 Plurafac LF 403 2.0 PAP 4.0 BTA 0.05 NaOH 0.8 Water to 100%
- the composition contains the peracid, phthalimidoperhexanoic acid (PAP), encapsulated in wax and the pH of the gel is 8.5.
- PAP phthalimidoperhexanoic acid
- BTA was incorporated via pre-dissolution in the Plurafac nonionic surfactant.
- the TiO 2 (0.1%) was incorporated into the base liquid.
- a second composition (B) was also prepared except the TiO 2 was not incorporated. These two formulations were stored at ambient temperature and at 45°C for at least 14 weeks.
- Sample A After 14 weeks storage at ambient temperature Sample A, within the scope of the invention, showed no visible change from its original white color. Sample (B), however, showed a considerable degree of yellow discoloration within the gel.
- the melting point of the wax used to coat the PAP peracid lies in the range 42-46°C. Therefore, storage at a temperature of 45°C represents an extreme test condition designed to cause early melting of the wax coating and full release of the peracid into the gel. After two days the gel of Sample (B) was very intensely yellow-colored. In contrast, there was a barely perceptible color change observed in Sample (A), containing the TiO 2 .
- the following inventive Sample (C) was prepared. Ingredient % by Weight-Sample C Water to 100 Carbopol 627 1.5 Sodium Citrate 30.0 Sorbitol 6.0 Borax 3.0 Sokalan CP-7 5.0 Plurafac LF 403 2.0 Suspended TPCAP 1.7 BTA 0.05 TiO 2 0.1
- a second Sample D was prepared, which was identical to Sample C except for the fact that TiO 2 was not incorporated into the base liquid. These two formulations were stored at 40°C as described in Example 1.
