Definitions
- the present invention relates to peroxygen bleach-containing compositions particularly suitable for the cleaning of carpets whereby colour safety is improved. Moreover, the compositions of the present invention provide excellent colour safety on the surface treated therewith when used in other applications apart from carpet cleaning applications, such as in laundry applications for example as a laundry detergent, a laundry additive or even a laundry pretreater.
- carpets produced from synthetic or natural fibres and mixtures thereof are commonly used in residential and commercial applications as a floor covering.
- Various types of fibres can be used in making carpets such as polyamide fibres, polyester fibres as well as wool, cotton or even silk in the case of rugs.
- carpets irrespective of whether they are made from natural or synthetic fibres are all prone to soiling and staining, when contacted with many household items.
- Foods, grease, oils, beverages in particular such as coffee, tea and soft drinks especially those containing acidic dyes can cause unsightly, often dark stains on carpets.
- the object of the present invention is to provide compositions particularly suitable for cleaning carpets that deliver overall effective stains removal performance on various types of stains including particulate stains, greasy stains, bleachable stains and/or enzymatic stains while providing improved colour safety.
- compositions which comprise a peroxygen bleach, a chelating agent having a mobility factor greater or equal to 0.7, and a cheating agent having a mobility factor lower than 0.6, at a weight ratio of the cheating agent having a mobility factor greater or equal to 0.7 to the cheating agent having a mobility factor lower than 0.6 of more than 1:1. More particularly, it has been found that the combination of said chelating agents with different mobility factors as defined herein, in a peroxygen bleach-containing composition results in a synergistic effect on colour safety on the treated carpets.
- compositions of the present invention are also suitable to clean upholstery and/or car seats covering. Furthermore, the compositions herein may also be used in laundry applications as a laundry detergent or additive or even in a laundry pretreatment application.
- compositions according to the present invention are that effective overall stain removal performance on various stains is provided including greasy stains, (e.g., make-up, lipstick, dirty motor oil and mineral oil, greasy food like mayonnaise and spaghetti sauce), bleachable stains (e.g., coffee, beverage, food), enzymatic stains (e.g. blood, grass) and/or particulate stains (e.g. clay, dirt, dust, mud, concrete and the like), especially on diffuse layers of stains/soils which occur in the so called "high traffic areas", i.e., on stains/soils which have become otherwise extremely difficult to remove.
- the cleaning action of the invention starts as soon as the composition herein has been applied to the surface for example carpet. Indeed, the use of a composition of the present invention on a carpet does not necessarily require rubbing and/or brushing of the carpet.
- WO 96/15308 discloses a method for cleaning carpets wherein a composition comprising a chelating agent in combination with a soil suspending polycarboxylate or polyamine polymer is applied to said carpet.

- compositions of the present invention comprising a peroxygen bleach, a chelating agent having a mobility factor greater or equal to 0.7 and a chelating agent having a mobility of lower than 0.6, at a weight ratio of the chelating agent having a mobility factor greater or equal to 0.7 to the cheating agent having a mobility factor lower than 0.6 of more than 1:1.

Further examples are given in "Surface Active Agents and Detergents" (Vol. I and II by Schwartz, Perry and Berch). A variety of such surfactants are also generally disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,929,678, issued December 30, 1975 to Laughlin, et al. at Column 23, line 58 through Column 29, line 23 (herein incorporated by reference).
- acyl sarcosinate or mixtures thereof, in its acid and/or salt form preferably long chain acyl sarcosinates having the following formula: wherein M is hydrogen or a cationic moiety and wherein R is an alkyl group of from 11 to 15 carbon atoms, preferably of from 11 to 13 carbon atoms.
- M are hydrogen and alkali metal salts, especially sodium and potassium.
- Said acyl sarcosinate surfactants are derived from natural fatty acids and the amino-acid sarcosine (N-methyl glycine). They are suitable to be used as aqueous solution of their salt or in their acidic form as powder. Being derivatives of natural fatty acids, said acyl sarcosinates are rapidly and completely biodegradable and have good skin compatibility.
- particularly preferred long chain acyl sarcosinates for use herein include C 12 acyl sarcosinate (i.e. an acyl sarcosinate according to the above formula wherein M is hydrogen and R is an alkyl group of 11 carbon atoms) and C 14 acyl sarcosinate (i.e. an acyl sarcosinate according to the above formula wherein M is hydrogen and R is an alkyl group of 13 carbon atoms).

- said amine oxide surfactants used are pure-cut amine oxide surfactants, i.e., a pure single amine oxide surfactant, e.g. C 8 N,N-dimethyl amine oxide, as opposed to mixtures of amine oxide surfactants of different chain lengths
- Such amine oxide surfactants are preferred herein as they contribute to the stain removal performance of the compositions herein on various types of stains. Also such amine oxide surfactants contribute to improve the chemical stability of said compositions. It is believed that improved chemical stability associated to the use of said amine oxide surfactants in bleaching compositions is due to the capacity of said amine oxide surfactants to lower the decomposition of said source of active oxygen and/or to limit interactions between said source of active oxygen and a bleach activator, if present, possibly through emulsification. It is believed that this stabilising effect is matrix independent.
- amine oxide surfactants especially pure-cut amine oxide surfactants, have the advantage to reduce the amount of residues left onto carpet fibres being treated with a composition comprising them. Also, the residues left after said composition comprising them has performed its cleaning action onto said carpet fibres are partially in a crystalline form. Indeed, it has been observed that with the compositions of the present invention which comprise said amine oxide surfactants, and especially a pure-cut amine oxide surfactant, more than 90%, preferably more than 95% of the residues left onto the carpet fibres are crystals (generally lamellar and/or needle-shaped) with an average particle surface bigger than 300 ⁇ 2 . This results in a process of cleaning carpets whereby the residues left onto the carpets are removed more easily as opposed to residues being sticky and thus difficult to remove by for example vacuum cleaning said carpets.

- polyhydroxy fatty acid amide surfactants are known in the art. In general, they can be made by reacting an alkyl amine with a reducing sugar in a reductive amination reaction to form a corresponding N-alkyl polyhydroxyamine, and then reacting the N-alkyl polyhydroxyamine with a fatty aliphatic ester or triglyceride in a condensation/amidation step to form the N-alkyl, N-polyhydroxy fatty acid amide product.
