Definitions

  • the invention relates to a granular additive for washing and cleaning agents, which consists of two granular powder components of defined composition, on which liquid, semi-solid or solid nonionic surfactants are adsorbed. Both powder components have a porous structure and can absorb up to 30% by weight, based on the additive, of such nonionic surfactants without the free-flowing properties suffering.
  • nonionic surfactants have a very high cleaning power, which makes them particularly suitable for use in low-temperature detergents.
  • their proportion cannot be increased significantly beyond 8 to 10 percent by weight in the generally customary production of detergents by means of spray drying, since this would otherwise result in excessive smoke formation in the exhaust air from the spray towers and inadequate pouring properties of the spray powder.
  • Methods have therefore been developed in which the liquid or melted nonionic surfactant is mixed onto the previously spray-dried powder or sprayed onto a carrier substance.
  • water-soluble builder substances in particular spray-dried phosphates, carbonates, bicarbonates, soluble silicates and borates, and water-insoluble builder substances, such as sodium aluminosilicate (zeolite) and silicon dioxide (Aerosil), have been proposed as carriers, but the known agents often have only a limited ad ⁇ sorption capacity as well as certain technical disadvantages.
  • zeolite sodium aluminosilicate
  • silicon dioxide Aerosil
  • phosphates are undesirable because of their eutrophic properties.
  • Fine powdered zeolites also have only a limited absorption capacity for liquid substances, while special adsorbents, such as diatomaceous earth and aerosil, as inert components do not contribute to the washing action.
  • DE 2418294 discloses detergents which consist of a powder component obtained by hot spray drying and granular sodium perborate tetrahydrate, the latter being impregnated with a defined mixture of nonionic surfactants. Due to the selection of non-ionic surfactants, the granulate is dust-free and free-flowing. According to EP 34 194, the perborate tetrahydrate is treated with nonionic surfactants which contain both ethylene glycol ether groups and propylene glycol ether groups. In addition to good flowability, the granules are notable in particular for being odorless.
  • DE 25 07 926 contains examples of the preparation of premixes, powder mixtures of aluminosilicate (zeolite), perborate and optionally also a bleach activator being sprayed with nonionic surfactants.
  • the resulting granules are then mixed with other powder components, in particular tower spray powder.
  • a certain stickiness of the granules, which can also be transferred to the overall mixture, is a problem here, especially if the admixed tower spray powder contains no phosphates.
  • EP 168 102 discloses a process for the production of high-density detergents in which nonionic surfactants are sprayed onto a powder mixture of sodium perborate monohydrate, zeolite and other builder substances.

  • Phosphate-free carrier grains are known from DE 32 06 265 and DE 32 06 379. They consist essentially of sodium carbonate or hydrogen carbonate, zeolite, sodium silicate, bentonite and polyacrylate. The high proportion of carbonates, however, favors the formation of calcium carbonate in hard water, while the sodium silicate in conjunction with zeolite considerably deteriorates the dispersibility of the grains in water.
  • EP 184794 discloses a granular adsorbent which is able to absorb high proportions of liquid to pasty detergent constituents, in particular nonionic surfactants, and (based on anhydrous substance) 60 to 80% by weight of zeolite, 0.1 to 8 % By weight of sodium silicate, 3 to 15% by weight of homo- or copolymers of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid and / or maleic acid, 8 to 18% by weight of water and optionally up to 5% by weight contains nonionic surfactants and can be obtained by spray drying. In practice it has been shown that in washing machines with unfavorably designed washing-in devices, the products do not completely dissolve in the course of the washing-in phase and leave residues.

Loading the granules with the nonionic surfactants generally increases the bulk density by about 50 to 200 g / l, which is in the interest of a higher total bulk weight and a saving in packaging and transport volume.

Abstract

L'invention vise à mettre au point un additif pour produits de lavage et détergents granulaires et sans phosphate, contenant des tensioactifs non ioniques et présentant aussi bien une meilleure tenue au rinçage qu'une température d'inflammation spontanée plus élevée et une combustibilité réduite. On y est parvenu grâce à un additif granulaire et sans phosphate, qui comporte: (A) 10 à 70 % en poids de monohydrate de perborate de sodium ayant une grosseur granulaire moyenne comprise entre 0,2 à 1,2 mm, (B) 25 à 80 % en poids d'un mélange granulaire ayant une grosseur granulaire moyenne comprise entre 0,2 et 1,2 mm, qui est au moins à 75 % en poids de nature inorganique et dépourvu de peroxygène et (rapporté à la substance anhydre dans le constituant B) contient 45 à 75 % en poids de zéolithe synthétique en fins cristaux , 0 à 30 % en poids de sulfate de sodium et 1 à 12 % en poids de sels d'acides carboxyliques homopolymères ou copolymères, (C) 5 à 30 % en poids de tensioactifs non ioniques qui sont liés aux constituants granulaires (A) et (B), (B) comportant 2 à 10 % en poids, rapporté à la substance anhydre dans le constituant (B), d'un silicate stratifié.
