Description

Die vorliegenden Erfindung betrifft ein Mittel zum Entfernen von Feststoffpartikeln von Oberflächen, seine Herstellung und Verwendung. Das Mittel ist besonders für die Reinigung von schwer zugänglichen und/oder empfindlichen Oberflächen und die fusselfreie Entfernung von Feststoffpartikeln geeignet.The present invention relates to a means for removal of solid particles from surfaces, its production and use. The remedy is especially for the cleaning hard-to-reach and / or sensitive surfaces and the lint-free removal of solid particles suitable.

Herkömmliche chemische Reinigungsmittel für harte Oberflächen werden als flüssige oder schaumartige (auch in Sprayform), pastöse oder feste Reiniger angeboten. Auch sogenannte Mikroemulsionen werden für Wasch- und Reinigungsprozesse eingesetzt. Von diesen Reinigern wird erwartet, dass sie sowohl im konzentrierten Zustand als auch in verdünnter wässriger oder organischer Lösung in Verbindung mit mechanischer Energie und einem mechanischen Reinigungsmittel, wie zum Beispiel einem Schwamm oder Lappen, ein optimales Anwendungsprofil zeigen.Conventional chemical cleaners for hard surfaces are called liquid or foamy (also in Sprayform), pasty or solid cleaners offered. Also called Microemulsions are used for washing and cleaning processes used. These cleaners are expected that they are both concentrated and diluted aqueous or organic solution in conjunction with mechanical energy and a mechanical cleaning agent, such as a sponge or rag, an optimal one Show application profile.

Die Verwendung von Putzlappen oder Reinigungstüchern kann praktisch nicht fusselfrei erfolgen. Einerseits lösen sich Fasern oder Faserteile des Gewebes oder Gewirkes der Lappen und Tücher. Andererseits lösen sich auch Schmutzfasern, welche mit dem Reinigungstuch oder -Lappen aufgenommen wurden, aber nicht genügend anhaften. Besonders unter Reinraumbedingungen führt dies immer wieder zu Problemen und einer mangelnden Akzeptanz solcher Produkte. The use of cleaning rags or cleaning wipes can practically not lint free. On the one hand, they dissolve Fibers or fiber parts of the tissue or knitted fabric of the lobes and towels. On the other hand dirt fibers, which were taken with the cleaning cloth or cloth, but do not cling enough. Especially under clean room conditions This always leads to problems and a lack of acceptance of such products.

Die genannten chemischen und mechanischen Reinigunsmittel eignen sich sehr gut für glatte, relativ unempfindliche Oberflächen. Nicht so gut geeignet sind diese Mittel jedoch, wenn schwer zugängliche Oberflächen, wie beispielsweise Autoarmaturen oder Tastaturen von Telefonen, Mobiltelefonen und Computern gereinigt werden sollen. Die im Handel erhältlichen verschiedenen flüssigen Reiniger können zwar problemlos aufgetragen oder aufgesprüht werden, ihre Entfernung zusammen mit den Schmutzpartikeln zum Beispiel aus den Zwischenräumen einer Computertastatur oder einer Autoarmatur muss jedoch mit mechanischen Mitteln wie Tüchern, Schwämmen oder Papier erfolgen, ein Vorgang, der sich bei den beschriebenen schwer zugänglichen Oberflächen als nahezu unmöglich erweist. Zudem besteht die Gefahr, dass flüssige oder schaumartige Reiniger oder Reinigungsmittel auf oder in empfindliche Elektonikteile fliessen und zu Beschädigungen führen. Als Folge der Eintrocknung des Lösungsmittels solcher chemischer Reiniger bilden sich zwischen den Computertasten oder in den Ritzen von Armaturen Rückstände aus Staub und Reinigungsmitteln, die dann umso hartnäckiger zu entfernen sind und mit der Zeit die Oberflächen angreifen, die eigentlich hätten gereinigt werden sollen.The said chemical and mechanical cleaning agents are very good for smooth, relatively insensitive Surfaces. However, these resources are not as well suited if hard-to-reach surfaces, such as Car taps or keyboards of telephones, mobile phones and computers should be cleaned. The in trade available various liquid cleaners can Although easily applied or sprayed, their Removal together with the dirt particles for example from the spaces between a computer keyboard or a computer keyboard However, car faucets must be replaced by mechanical means such as cloths, Sponges or paper take place, a process that in the hard-to-reach surfaces described turns out to be almost impossible. There is also the danger that liquid or foamy cleaner or cleaner flow on or into sensitive electronic parts and lead to damage. As a result of the drying of the Solvents of such chemical cleaners form between the computer keys or in the cracks of faucets Residues from dust and detergents, all the more more persistent to remove and over time the surfaces attack, which should have been cleaned should.

Bildschirme, beispielsweise von Fernsehgeräten oder Computern reagieren sehr empfindlich auf eine mechanische Reinigung. Durch das Auftragen und Verreiben beziehungsweise Abwischen der herkömmlichen Reinigungsmittel entstehen in Verbindung mit Staubpartikeln häufig feine Kratzer auf den Oberflächen, die die Bildqualität beeinträchtigen. Werden die Bildschirme "trocken" gereinigt, d.h. nur mechanisch mit einem Tuch und ohne ein flüssiges Mittel, laden sich die Geräte häufig statisch auf, was zu leichten, aber dennoch unangenehmen Stromschlägen führen kann. Screens, such as televisions or computers are very sensitive to mechanical cleaning. By applying and rubbing or wiping of conventional cleaning agents arise in Connecting with dust particles often causes fine scratches on the Surfaces that affect the image quality. Become cleaned the screens "dry", i. only mechanically with a cloth and without a liquid agent, load themselves The devices often static up, which is too light, but still can cause unpleasant electric shocks.

Ein weiterer Nachteil der herkömmlichen chemischen Reinigungsmittel ist ihre ökologischen Verträglichkeit. Zwar unterliegen sie hinsichtlich ihrer biologischen Abbaubarkeit europaweit den Bestimmungen des Wasch- und Reinigungsmittelgesetzes, jedoch sind die Mengen an Tensiden, Säuren und Laugen, die in die Abwassersysteme gelangen und dort abgebaut werden müssen, nach wie vor relativ gross. Bei den mechanischen Mitteln, wie zum Beispiel den oben Beschreibenen Tüchern für Bildschirme oder optische Geräte kommt hinzu, dass sie sich meist nur einmal verwenden lassen und dann üblicherweise entsorgt werden müssen. Gleiches gilt für Klebstoffrollen, wie sie als "Fusselrollen" weite Verbreitung finden. Nach kurzem Gebrauch ist die klebende Oberfläche vollständig mit Haaren, Fusseln und sonstigen Schmutzpartikeln bedeckt, die Reinigungswirkung geht gegen Null und der Oberflächliche Abschnitt der Klebrolle muss entsorgt werden.Another disadvantage of conventional chemical cleaners is their ecological compatibility. Although subject their biodegradability Europe-wide the regulations of the washing and cleaning agent law, however, the amounts of surfactants, acids and Alkalis that enter the sewage systems and are mined there still relatively large. At the mechanical Means, such as those described above Cloths for screens or optical devices are added, that they usually only use once and then usually need to be disposed of. The same applies to Glue rolls, as they are widely used as "lint rolls" Find. After short use is the adhesive surface completely with hair, lint and other dirt particles covered, the cleaning effect goes to zero and the superficial portion of the tack roll must be discarded become.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, ein Reinigungsmittel zur Verfügung zu stellen, das in der Lage ist, Feststoffpartikel von schwer zugänglichen Oberflächen zu entfernen, das dabei leicht anwendbar und ökologisch verträglich ist und bei anhaltend hoher Reinigungswirkung über lange Zeit verwendet werden kann.The object of the present invention is a cleaning agent to provide solid particles to remove from hard-to-reach surfaces, It is easy to use and ecologically compatible is and persistently high cleaning effect over can be used for a long time.

Das Reinigunsmittel der vorliegenden Erfindung soll darüber hinaus eine schonende mechanische Reinigung von Oberflächen aus empfindlichen Materialien wie beispielsweise Glas, Keramik, Holz, verschiedene Kunststoffe und Metalle ermöglichen und als Gelreiniger, Kaltreiniger, Neutralreiniger, Desinfektionsreiniger und technischer Reiniger anwendbar sein. Je nach Konsistenz eignet sich das Mittel auch zum Entfernen von Staubfäden, Haaren und ähnlichem von Textilien. The cleaning agent of the present invention is intended to be above In addition, a gentle mechanical cleaning of surfaces made of sensitive materials such as glass, ceramics, Wood, various plastics and metals allow and as a gel cleaner, cold cleaner, neutral cleaner, Disinfectant cleaner and technical cleaner applicable be. Depending on the consistency, the agent is also suitable for Removal of stamens, hair and the like of textiles.

Gelöst werden die verschiedenen Aufgaben der vorliegenden Erfindung durch die Herstellung eines auf natürlichen Polygalactomannanen basierenden gelförmigen Reinigungsmittels. Das erfinderische Mittel enthält Polymere, Tenside und weitere Inhaltstoffe, wobei die genannten Polymere natürliche Polygalactomanane sind. Das Mittel ist weiter dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Mittel eine Viskosität von 50'000 bis 150'000 mPa.s, vorzugsweise 80'000 bis 120'000 mPa.s und am meisten bevorzugt von 100'000 mPa.s aufweist und dass seine Masse zu 70 - 97%, vorzugweise zu 95% aus gebundenem Wasser und Lösungsmittel besteht, wobei das Lösungsmittel ein gesättigter, einwertigen Alkohol ausgewählt aus der Gruppe bestehend aus Methylalkohol, Ethylalkohol, Isopropylalkohol oder Gemischen davon ist. Das Mittel ist derart formuliert, das sich eine weiche, leicht verformbare Masse ergibt, die sich jeder Kontur anpasst, dabei kohäsiv ist, so dass sie kleine Ritzen und Kavitäten erreicht, ohne jedoch Rückstände zu hinterlassen, wenn sie von der zu reinigenden Oberfläche entfernt wird.Solved the various tasks of the present Invention by the production of a natural polygalactomannans based gel detergent. The inventive agent contains polymers, surfactants and other ingredients, said polymers being natural Polygalactomanans are. The remedy is further through characterized in that the agent has a viscosity of 50,000 to 150,000 mPa.s, preferably 80,000 to 120,000 mPa.s and most preferably 100,000 mPa.s, and that its mass amounts to 70 - 97%, preferably to 95% bound water and solvent, wherein the Solvent selected a saturated, monohydric alcohol from the group consisting of methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, Isopropyl alcohol or mixtures thereof. That means is so formulated, which is a soft, easily deformable Mass results, which adapts to each contour, thereby cohesive is so that it reaches small cracks and cavities without However, leave residues if they are to be cleaned from the Surface is removed.

Durch Auftupfen, Auflegen oder Andrücken werden Staubpartikel, Fette und sonstige Verschmutzungen von der Oberfläche des Reinigungsmittels mittels Kohäsion aufgenommen, d.h. es findet eine mechanische (physikalische) Reinigung, jedoch ohne Scheuern, Reiben etc. statt. Da die Masse des Reinigungsmittels gelförmig ist und in sich verläuft, d.h. sich vermischt, werden die Schmutzpartikel in die Masse eingebettet und es bilden sich neue Oberflächen, die weitere Schmutzpartikel aufnehmen können.
In Abhängigkeit von der Einwirkungszeit wirkt die Reinigungsmasse auch schmutz- und/oder fettlösend. Bei einem einfachen Abtupfen kann jedoch die Einwirkungszeit zu gering sein um an einer zu reinigenden Oberfläche fest anhaftende Verschmutzungen oder Fette zu lösen.
By dabbing, applying or pressing dust particles, fats and other contaminants are absorbed by the surface of the cleaning agent by means of cohesion, ie there is a mechanical (physical) cleaning, but without scrubbing, rubbing etc. instead. Since the mass of the cleaning agent is gel-like and runs in, ie mixed, the dirt particles are embedded in the mass and it form new surfaces that can accommodate more dirt particles.
Depending on the exposure time, the cleaning mass also acts as a dirt and / or grease-releasing agent. In a simple dabbing, however, the exposure time may be too low to solve on a surface to be cleaned firmly adhering dirt or grease.

Aufgrund seiner Konsistenz, seines Aufbaus und seiner chemischen Struktur kann das Reinigungsmittel je nach Anwendung und Bedarf zerschnitten beziehungsweise zerkleinert werden und kann auch wieder "zusammenwachsen". Eine Synärese, d.h. ein "Altern" der Masse durch Austrocknen und/oder Flüssigkeitsabscheidung tritt kaum auf, da die Lösungsmittel und Reinigungsflüssigkeiten in einem Strukturgel gebunden vorliegen. Because of its consistency, its structure and its chemical Structure may be the cleaning agent depending on the application and needs cut or shredded become and can "grow together" again. A syneresis, i.e. an "aging" of the mass by drying out and / or Liquid separation hardly occurs because the solvents and cleaning fluids bound in a structural gel available.

Durch die Aufnahme von Schmutzpartikeln ändert sich die Farbe des Reinigungsmittels zum Beispiel von einem intensiv leuchtenden hellgelb nach einem grünlichgelben Farbton, was ein Indikator für die Belastung der Masse mit Schmutz ist.The inclusion of dirt particles changes the Color of the detergent for example from an intense bright yellow to a greenish yellow hue, what An indicator of the burden of dirt with dirt.

Aufgrund ihrer speziellen Zusammensetzung wirkt das Reinigungsmittel der vorliegenden Erfindung entfettend und desinfizierend (bakerizid, viruzid und fungizid). Es ist schwer bis nicht entflammbar, umweltfreundlich, hautverträglich, ist antistatisch und klebt nicht. Da es mild alkalisch ist, verursacht es weder Korrosion, noch führt es zum Rosten der gereinigten Flächen.Due to its special composition, the cleaning agent works degreasing and disinfecting the present invention (bakericide, virucidal and fungicidal). It is hard to non-flammable, environmentally friendly, skin-friendly, is antistatic and does not stick. Because it is mildly alkaline is, it does not cause corrosion, nor does it cause it for rusting the cleaned surfaces.

Beispielexample

Bei dem erfindungsgemässen Reinigungsmittel handelt es sich um eine gelförmige Masse mit besonders langsam fliessender kohäsiver Konsistenz, die kleinste Feststoffpartikel wie zum Beispiel Staub und Pollen von einer Oberfläche ablöst und bindet.The inventive cleaning agent is around a gel-like mass with particularly slowly flowing cohesive consistency, the smallest solid particles like For example, dust and pollen are detached from a surface and binds.

Als Grundsubstanz für das gelförmige Reinigungsmittel der vorliegenden Erfindung mit besonders langsamem Fliessverhalten werden Polygalactomannane wie beispielsweise Guarkernmehl und/oder Johannisbrotkernmehl verwendet. Guarmehl wird durch Mahlen des Endosperms der zur Familie der Leguminosen gehörenden Guarbohne gewonnen. Hauptbestandteil des Guar-Mehls ist das Guaran, bei dem es sich, wie oben angemerkt, um ein Polygalactomannan beziehungsweise Polysaccharid handelt. Als natürliches Verdickungsmittel findet GuarMehl verbreitet Anwendung als Stabilisator und Verdickungsmittel im Nahrungsmittelbereich, in der Textilindustrie und im Sprengstoffsektor. As the basic substance for the gel detergent of present invention with particularly slow flow behavior become polygalactomannans such as guar gum and / or locust bean gum. guar gum is made by milling the endosperm of the legume family obtained from the guar bean. Main component of the Guar-Mehls is the guaran, which, as noted above, to a polygalactomannan or polysaccharide is. Guar flour is a natural thickening agent Widely used as a stabilizer and thickener in the food sector, in the textile industry and in the explosives sector.

Johannisbrotkernmehl wird aus den in den Hülsen des Johannisbrotbaums befindlichen Samen gewonnen, deren Endosperm bis zu 90% aus hochmolekularem Galactomannan besteht. Anwendungsbereich des Johannisbrotkernmehls ist ebenfalls die Nahrungsmittelindustrie, aber auch die Tabak- und Papierindustrie.
