Definitions

  • This invention relates to novel laundry care compositions comprising whitening agents for cellulosic substrates.
  • the whitening agents are comprised of at least two components: at least one chromophore component and at least one polymeric component. Suitable chromophore components generally fluoresce blue, red, violet, or purple color when exposed to ultraviolet light, or they may absorb light to reflect these same shades.
  • the whitening agents are further characterized by having a dispersion component value of the Hansen Solubility Parameter of less than or equal to about 17 MPa 0.5 . These whitening agents may be ideal for use in laundry care compositions including but not limited to liquid and/or powder laundry detergent formulations and rinse added fabric softening (RAFS) compositions.
  • RAFS fabric softening
  • whitening agents either optical brighteners or blueing agents
  • textile applications are well known in the prior art.
  • whitening agents may be found in laundry detergents, fabric softeners, or rinse aids and are therefore applied to textile substrates during the laundering process.
  • whitening agents function to brighten treated textile substrates without causing undesirable staining of the textile substrates.
  • Cellulosic substrates tend to exhibit a yellow hue after exposure to light, air, and/or soiling. This yellowness is often difficult to reverse by normal laundering procedures.
  • improved whitening agents which are capable of climinating the yellowness exhibited by ageing cellulosic substrates. By utilizing such improved whitening agents, the life of the textile substrates, such as clothing articles, table linens, etc., may be extended.
  • the present invention offers advantages over US Patents No. 4,137,243 , 5,039,782 and US Patent Application Publication No. 2005/0288206 as this invention takes advantage of compounds having a Hansen Solubility Parameter of less than or equal to about 17 MPa 0.5 and which emit light with wavelengths in the range of blue, red, violet, purple, or combinations thereof upon exposure to ultraviolet light (or, they absorb light to produce the same shades) in order to neutralize the yellowness of cellulosic substrates. These compounds function ideally as whitening agents for cellulosic substrates and may be incorporated into laundry detergent formulations for use by consumers during the laundering process.
  • a laundry care composition comprising a laundry care ingredient and a whitening agent, said whitening agent comprising: at least one chromophore component that comprises a triphenylmethane colorant, and at least one polymeric component; wherein the whitening agent possesses a dispersion component value of the Hansen Solubility Parameter of less than or equal to 17 MPa 0.5 .
  • the whitening agents are comprised of at least two components: at least one chromophore component and at least one polymeric component. Suitable chromophore components generally fluoresce blue, red, violet, or purple color when exposed to ultraviolet light, or they may absorb light to reflect these same shades.
  • the whitening agents are further characterized by having a dispersion component value of the Hansen Solubility Parameter of less than or equal to about 17 MPa 0.5 .
  • This invention also relates to laundry care compositions including but not limited to liquid and/or powder laundry detergent formulations and rinse added fabric softening (RAFS) compositions that comprise such whitening agents.
  • RAFS rinse added fabric softening
  • cellulosic substrates are intended to include any substrate which comprises at least a majority by weight of cellulose.
  • Cellulose may be found in wood, cotton, linen, jute, and hemp.
  • Cellulosic substrates may be in the form of powders, fibers, pulp and articles formed from powders, fibers and pulp.
  • Cellulosic fibers include, without limitation, cotton, rayon (regenerated cellulose), acetate (cellulose acetate), triacetate (cellulose triacetate), and mixtures thereof.
  • Articles formed from cellulosic fibers include textile articles such as fabrics.
  • Articles formed from pulp include paper.
  • laundry care composition includes, unless otherwise indicated, granular, powder, liquid, gel, paste, bar form and/or flake type washing agents and/or fabric treatment compositions.
  • fabric treatment composition includes, unless otherwise indicated, fabric softening compositions, fabric enhancing compositions, fabric freshening compositions and combinations there of. Such compositions may be, but need not be rinse added compositions.
  • test methods disclosed in the Test Methods Section of the present application should be used to determine the respective values of the parameters of Applicants' inventions.
  • component or composition levels are in reference to the active portion of that component or composition, and are exclusive of impurities, for example, residual solvents or by-products, which may be present in commercially available sources of such components or compositions.
  • the whitening agents used in the present invention may be dyes, pigments, or polymeric colorants comprising a chromophore constituent and a polymeric constituent.
  • the chromophore constituent is characterized in that it emits or absorbs wavelength in the range of blue, red, violet, purple, or combinations thereof upon exposure to light.
  • the chromophore constituent exhibits an absorbance spectrum value from about 520 nanometers to about 640 nanometers in water, and more preferably from about 570 nanometers to about 610 nanometers in water.
  • the chromophore constituent exhibits an emission spectrum value from about 400 nanometers to about 480 nanometers in water.
  • suitable polymeric constituents include polyoxyalkylene chains having multiple repeating units.
  • the polymeric constituents include polyoxyalkylene chains having from 2 to about 20 repeating units, and more preferably from 2 to about 10 or even from about 4 to about 6 repeating units.
  • Non-limiting examples of polyoxyalkylene chains include ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, glycidol oxide, butylene oxide and mixtures thereof.
  • the whitening agent used in the present invention is characterized by having at least one chromophore component that comprises a triphenylmethane colorant, preferably an alkoxylated triphenylmethane polymeric colorant.
  • the whitening agent may further comprise at least two hydroxyl groups.
  • Preferably the at least two hydroxyl groups are primary hydroxyl moieties.
  • the Hansen Solubility Parameter is a three component measuring system that includes a dispersion force component ( ⁇ d ), a hydrogen bonding component ( ⁇ h ), and a polar component ( ⁇ p ).
  • Dispersion forces are weak attractive forces between non-polar molecules. The magnitude of these forces depends on the polarizability of the molecule, and the dispersion Hansen Solubility Parameter, ⁇ d , typically increases with increasing volume (and size) of the molecule, all other properties being roughly equal.
  • ⁇ p increases with increasing polarity of the molecule.
  • Hansen Solubility Parameters are calculated at 25°C with ChemSW's Molecular Modeling Pro v.6.1.9 software package which uses an unpublished proprietary algorithm that is based on values published in the Handbook of Solubility Parameters and Other Parameters by Allan F.M. Barton (CRC Press, 1983 ) for solvents obtained experimentally by Hansen. All values of the Hansen Solubility Parameter reported herein are in units of MPa 0.5 (square root of megaPascals). Hansen originally determined the solubility parameter of solvents for polymer solutions. While Hansen Solubility Parameter calculation has been applied successfully to a wide range of applications such as solubility of biological materials, characterization of pigments, fillers and fibers, etc., it has not heretofore been adapted to polymeric colorants.
  • the dispersion force component of the Hansen Solubility Parameter, ⁇ d is less than or equal to about 17, and more preferably less than or equal to about 15. It may also be desirable that the dispersion force component of the Hansen Solubility Parameter is from about 12 to about 17, and more preferably from about 12 to about 15.
  • the affinity of the whitening agent to the cellulosic material appears to correlate very well with the Hansen Solubility Dispersion Component parameter
  • the invention is not limited to the use of ⁇ d .
  • Other molecular descriptors which are directly or indirectly related to ⁇ d such as, for example, polarizability, radius of gyration, molecular volume, and Jurs descriptors based on partial atomic charges mapped on solvent-accessible surface area, were also considered. However, the goodness of fit of the univariate correlations of the affinity with these descriptors was not as good as with ⁇ d .
  • the affinity of the whitening agents for the cellulose substrates may be ascribed to Van der Waals forces, the attractive forces that exist between electrically neutral molecules in close proximity to one another. It is also postulated that if the cellulose substrate is comprised of porous regions, the whitening agent, or portions thereof, may be physically trapped in the pores of the cellulose, depending on the size of the molecule as compared to the diameter of the pores. This physical entrapment may provide some level of durability to protect the whitening agent from being easily removed form the cellulose substrate upon exposure to washing or rinsing.
  • the whitening agent's described in the present specification is incorporated into a laundry care composition including but not limited to laundry detergents and fabric care compositions. Such compositions comprise one or more of said whitening agents and a laundry care ingredient.
  • the whitening agent may be added to cellulose substrates using a variety of application techniques. For application to cellulose-containing textile substrates, the whitening agent is preferably included as an additive in laundry detergent. Thus, application to the cellulose-containing textile substrate actually occurs when a consumer adds laundry detergent to a washing machine. Similarly, RAFS compositions are typically added in the rinse cycle, which is after the detergent solution has been used and replaced with the rinsing solution in typical laundering processes. For application to cellulosic paper substrates, the whitening agent may be added to the paper pulp mixture prior to formation of the final paper product.

Note also that ethylene oxide, propylene oxide and butylenes oxide are shown below by their typical designation of "EO,” "PO” and “BO,” respectively.
  • the average length and composition of the polymeric components of the whitening agents in Tables 1A and 1B is obtained from the formula: (Block 1 + Block 2 + Block 3)/(number of chains).
  • the average structure for Violet thiophene_5EO consists of a thiophene chromophore with 2 chains on the nitrogen, one equal to 3EO and one equal to 2EO.
  • Chain caps are present on all polymeric components.
  • Table 1A - Identification of Inventive Whitening Agents Example No. Sample Identification Block 1 Block 2 Block 3 # of Chains Chain caps
  • Example 15 Triphenylmethane 10EO (10 EO) 2 - - 4 OH (a) EO groups are added to the terminal OH group.
  • WI (D*Y) + (P*x) + (Q*y) + C, where Y, x and y are colorimetric values and D, P, Q and C are formula parameters.
  • the surface color of an article may be quantified using a series of measurements - L*, a*, and b* - generated by measuring the samples using a spectrophotometer.
  • the equipment used for this test is a Gretag Macbeth Color Eye 7000A spectrophotometer.
  • the software program used is "Color imatch.”
  • L is a measure of the amount of white or black in a sample; higher “L” values indicate a lighter colored sample.
  • a measure of the amount of red or green in a sample is determined by "a*” values.
  • a measure of the amount of blue or yellow in a sample is determined by "b*" values; lower (more negative) b* values indicate more blue on a sample.
  • DE CMC is a measure of the overall color difference for all uniform color spaces, where DE CMC represents the magnitude of difference between a color and a reference (in this case, a pure white standard). The higher the DE CMC value, the more pronounced the difference in color. In other words, smaller DE CMC values represent colors that are closer to white.
  • the Gretag Macbeth Color Eye 7000A Spectrophotometer calculates DE CMC values based on wavelength and reflectance data for each sample.
  • each inventive whitening agent is drawn with Material Studio molecular modeling software (available from Accelrys, Inc.). Each structure's geometry is optimized by minimizing its energy with the Forcite module using the semi-empirical Universal forcefield and the Qeq charge assignment system.
  • Descriptors can be categorized in the following categories: 1. Structural, 2. Functional, 3. Energetic, 4. Topological, 5. Spatial, and 6. Thermodynamic.
  • Test 1 Whiteness Test As Determined by CIELab b* Values and the Ganz Whiteness Index
  • Example 15 is tested for whiteness to determine CIELab b* values and Ganz Whiteness Index ("Ganz WI") values. Test results are provided in Table 3. Lower (more negative) CIELab b* values and higher positive Ganz WI values indicate that more blueing, or whitening effect, is exhibited by the treated cellulose particles.

  • Test 2 Measurement of CIELab b* Values and the Dispersion Component Values of Hansen Solubility Parameter
  • Example 15 is tested to determine CIELab b* values and the dispersion component values of the Hansen Solubility Parameter. Examples 15 contains triphenylmethane colorants.
  • test results of examples 1 to 17 of WO 2008/087497 reveal a relatively linear correlation between the blueing parameter, CIELab b*, and the dispersion component value of the Hansen Solubility Parameter.
  • the color value b* decreases (i.e. blueing performance increases) linearly as ⁇ d decreases.
  • Test 3 Prediction of CIELab b* Values Based on the Dispersion Component Values of Hansen Solubility Parameter
  • Examples 1 - 10 and 15 - 17 of WO 2008/087497 are first used to train a model based on the dispersion component value of the Hansen Solubility Parameter.
  • Equation 3 This equation is very similar to Equation 2, which is derived using all of the Examples.
  • the model represented by Equation 3 is validated with test compounds in Examples 11 - 14 of WO 2008/087497 .
  • Equation 3 is used to generate predictions for the CIELab b* value of molecules in Examples 11 - 14 of WO 2008/087497 (test molecules) before these molecules are synthesized and tested for whitening efficiency.
  • the predicted CIELab b* values obtained from Equation 3 are compared to the measured values previously obtained from the Gretag Macbeth Color Eye 7000A spectrophotometer. The percent difference between measured b* color values and predicted b* color values is also determined.
  • Comparative Example 1 is a blue polymeric anthraquinone dye disclosed in Example III of USPN 4,127,243 to Farmer.
  • Comparative Example 2 is Basic Violet 3, as disclosed in Table 2 of US Patent Application Publication No. 2005/0288206 to Sadlowski et al.
  • Example 11(Violet thiophene_5EO_COCH3) and Example 12 (Violet thiophene_glycidol) of WO 2008/087497 are synthesized and tested to verify that the model can explain the effects of the functionality of the polymeric chain end caps.
  • Example 12 of WO 2008/087497 has four hydroxyl groups, while whitening agents with EO or PO end groups have only 2 hydroxyl groups.
  • Example 11 of WO 2008/087497 has roughly the same size as Example 12 of WO 2008/087497 , but the acetate caps are less polar than the OH groups.
  • FIG. 1 of WO 2008/087497 provides a graphical representation of the data.
  • the phrase "violet thiophene” is shown as “violet” and "triphenylmethane” is shown as “TPM” on Figure 1.
  • the data points represent the measured CIELab b* color values.
  • the solid line represents Equation 3, which is the predicted data.
  • the linear correlation between color value b* and ⁇ d suggests that the smaller the molecule the stronger the deposition on the cellulose powder.
  • the size of the whitening agent compound may influence its ability to access and diffuse into the pores of the cellulose powder.
  • the calculations also show that triphenylmethane-containing whitening agents are preferred whitening agents.
  • Tables 6A and 6B provide examples of liquid detergent formulations which include at least one whitening agent of the present invention.
  • the formulations are shown in Table 6A as Formulations 1a through If and in Table 6B as Formulations 1g through 11.

  • a laundry detergent containing such a whitening agent is also contemplated herein.
  • a laundry detergent containing such a whitening agent is also contemplated herein.
  • test results provided herein tend to indicate that deposition of the whitening agent on the cellulose powder may be controlled, at least in part, by the size of the whitening agent compound and by its chain cap functionality. Test results also suggest that larger molecules may be too bulky to diffuse into the pores of the cellulose powder which may decrease the whitening effect after multiple washing and/or rinsing cycles.
