Definitions
- the present invention relates to improvements relating to cleaning compositions and in particular to improvements relating to cleaning compositions comprising surfactants and solvents.
- compositions for use in cleaning of household and industrial hard surfaces comprise solvent components, in addition to surfactants. These solvents are generally intended to improve cleaning performance by assisting in the removal of greasy or waxy soils. The advantages associated with the presence of solvents in such compositions are particularly marked at low surfactant levels, such as are found in compositions for use on highly reflective surfaces upon which high levels of surfactant residues cannot be tolerated.
- solvent components are immiscible with water or have a relatively low level of miscibility above which they form emulsions and therefore those compositions which comprise levels of solvent above the miscibility limit either need to be shaken vigorously prior to use or the solvent needs to be present as a stable emulsion.
- Stable emulsions can be difficult to prepare and are prone to phase-separation.
- single phase systems and single phase systems are more readily formulated, processed, stored and dispensed than emulsions, the use of immiscible solvents in single phase compositions has been limited to relatively low levels.
- compositions comprising a binary solvent system of terpenes and polar solvents are described in EP 0040882 and EP 0080749.
- Typical compositions for cleaning glass are described in EP 261874 (The Procter and Gamble Company: 1986/87) .
- cleaning compositions which comprise a specific isomer of n-butoxy propan-2-ol, available commercially as 'DO ANOL PnB' (RTM, from the DOW Chemical Company) .
- n-butoxy propan-2-ol is miscible with water up to a level of around 6% dependent on temperature and levels of isomers.
- sprays to deliver the compositions to a surface is to be avoided due to odour problems.
- EP 0428816 discloses in general terms formulations comprising as a first solvent from 1-9% of ethanol, 0.5-3% of n-butoxy propan-2-ol, 0.5-3% of n-propoxy propanol and, as a second solvent, 0.5-3% of a primary or secondary monoalcohol having a five carbon alkyl chain.
- emulsions Other systems have comprised emulsions.
- GB 2144763 (P&G: 1983) relates to hard-surface cleaners in the form of a so-called 'microemulsion' of solvent, comprising at least 5% solvent and a magnesium salt.
- the use of microemulsions has been considered advantageous due to the improved cleaning performance of free solvent as compared with solutions of solvent in water or other aqueous media.
- Microemulsions are described in that document as very fine emulsions which appear as homogeneous compositions.
- microemulsions are employed they are difficult to produce, but where they are not used insufficient solvent may be present for effective cleaning.
- the present invention provides a homogeneous, aqueous, cleaning composition which comprises surfactant and solvent, and is characterised in that it forms a solvent- water emulsion on evaporation of at least a portion of the solvent.
- a second solvent component which is sufficiently volatile that, in use, it evaporates from the composition to leave a mixture of the first solvent component and water, said second solvent component being present at a level such that first solvent component is solubilised in the overall composition.
- the second solvent component evaporates from the overall composition and the remaining first solvent component and water phase-separate, thus forming an emulsion, whereby the cleaning action of the first solvent component is potentiated.
- the emulsion thus formed generally has a coarse dispersed phase.
- the first solvent component is selected from glycol ethers and esters.
- the first solvent component is selected from the group comprising propylene glycol mono n-butyl ether, dipropylene glycol mono n-butyl ether, propylene glycol mono t-butyl ether, dipropylene glycol mono t-butyl ether, diethylene glycol hexyl ether, ethyl acetate and mixtures thereof.
- the first solvent component is propylene glycol mono n-butyl ether (n-butoxy propan-2-ol) , preferably present at a level of 6%-12%.
- Second Solvent is propylene glycol mono n-butyl ether (n-butoxy propan-2-ol) , preferably present at a level of 6%-12%.
- the second solvent component is selected from volatile alcohols; water miscible, volatile glycol ethers, aldehydes, ketones, di-alkyl ethers and mixtures thereof.
- said second solvent component is selected from the group comprising: methanol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether and mixtures thereof.
- the second solvent component comprises, ethanol, isopropanol or mixtures thereof.
- Ethanol in the form of industrial methylated spirits is suitable for the practice of the invention.
- compositions according to the present invention are optional components of formulations according to the present invention although it is desirable that compositions according to the invention further comprise one or more surfactant species.
- the nature of the surfactant is not critical to the general function of the invention.
- the surfactant species are generally, anionic or nonionic, although it is envisaged that cationic, zwitterionic and amphoteric surfactants can be employed. Mixtures of both anionic and nonionic can be employed.
- the cleaning composition further comprises an anionic surfactant. It is envisaggd that a broad range of anionic surfactants can be used in the embodiments of the present invention, some of which are listed below. In each case the anionic surfactant will be present together with a suitable counter-ion.
- compositions further comprise magnesium ions in an amount corresponding to at least 0.02 M where M is the molar amount of anionic surfactant in the composition.
- the magnesium salt of the anionic synthetic detergent to be used in the present invention can be a magnesium salt of the well-known types of anionic detergent surfactants, such as the C 10 -C 18 alkylbenzene sulphonates, C 10 -C 18 alkanesulphonates, sulphonated C 10 -C 22 fatty acids or esters thereof, C 8 -C 18 olefinsulphonates, di-(C 6 -C 10 alkyl) sulphosuccinates, C 10 -C 18 alkylsulphates, C 10 -C 18 alkylethersulphates containing from 1 to 10 moles of ethylene-oxide. Further examples can be found in Schwartz-Perry "Surface Active Agents and Detergents", Vol. I (1949) and Vol. II (1958).
- the anionic detergents are the magnesium salts of primary alcohol sulphates. These are believed to be more readily biodegradable than other surfactants and are available in commercial quantities from renewable resources.
- Primary alcohol sulphates are mixture of materials of the general formulation:
- R is a C 8 to C 18 primary alkyl group and X is a solubilising cation.
- Suitable cations include sodium, magnesium, potassium, ammonium and mixtures thereof.
- the final composition should comprise from 0.05 to 10% by weight of the magnesium salt of the anionic synthetic detergent, preferably from 0.1 to 7.5% by weight.
- the magnesium salt of the anionic synthetic detergent may be incorporated as such in the final composition, or may be formed by in-situ neutralisation of the anionic synthetic detergent in acid from with a suitable neutralising magnesium compound such as magnesium-oxide, -hydroxide, -carbonate, etc.
- the magnesium salt of the anionic synthetic detergent may also be formed in situ by the addition of a magnesium salt such as magnesium sulphate to the alkali-metal ammonium or alkanolamine salt of the anionoic synthetic detergent in the composition.
- nonionic surfactants can be employed.
- the preferred nonionic surfactant is selected from the group comprising ethoxylated alcohols of the general formula:
- R x is straight or branched, C 8 to C 18 alkyl and the average degree of ethoxylation (i.e. the ethylene oxide chain length) m is 1-14._
- compositions are formed when the surfactant system consists solely of the magnesium salt of an anionic surfactant, particularly the magnesium salt of a primary alcohol sulphate.
- compositions according to the present invention therefore comprise:
- magnesium salt of an anionic surfactant preferably the magnesium salt of primary alcohol sulphate
- compositions of the invention can further comprise other components selected from the group comprising: further surfactant species, perfumes, electrolytes, colours and dyes, abrasives, hygiene agents, further solvent components, foam- control agents, viscosity modifying agents, hydrotropes and mixtures thereof. Provided that these components are present at sufficiently low levels they do not interfere with the function of the invention.
- compositions directly onto a soiled surface rather than cleaning the surface with a cloth or sponge dampened with the compositions. It is believed that the evaporation of one of the components of the cleaning composition is critical to the use of the inventive compositions in practice and that evaporation proceeds more effectively during the spraying operation and from a surface than from a cloth.
- a further aspect of the present invention comprises a process including the steps of:
- a yet further aspect of the present invention relates to a homogeneneous composition
- a homogeneneous composition comprising solvent and surfactant which decomposes into a solvent-water emulsion as a portion of the solvent evaporates, packaged in a container adapted to produce a spray.
- Figure 1 is a graph showing the cleaning efficiency of commercial n-butoxy propan-2-ol (DOWANOL PnB) with concentration, and,
- Figure 2 illustrates the cleaning efficiency of the compositions prepared as examples in graphical form.
- PnB Dowanol PnB [RTM] : n-butoxy propan-2-ol, P2L: Pentan-2-ol,
- DOB Dobanol 91-8 [RTM] : nonionic surfactant
- ⁇ H3 Ammonia LAS: Linear alkyl sulphonate: surfactant (as ammonium salt) .
- PAS Magnesium salt of C 10 -C 18 primary alcohol sulphate: anionic surfactant.
- NON Dobanol 91-350FA [RTM]: nonionic surfactant. From figure 1 it can be seen that the cleaning efficiency of PnB-based compositions is particularly dependent on PnB concentration in the range between 5 and 7 wt% concentration on product. To obtain these results 1.0 ml of each neat sample was applied with a sponge on to soiled Decamel [RTM] tiles (soiled with 80/20 fat/particulate soil at 0.25mg/cm.cm) and wiped using 10 reciprocal Sheen rubbing cycles (76 g/cm.cm applied load) . The percentage cleaning efficiency was calculated from reflectance measurements.
- Single phase compositions were formed by simple mixing of the components according to the formulations given in Table 1, the balance of the formulation being water.
- Example 1 is a control experiment to illustrate the base-line cleaning effect of a single phase system containing PnB.
- the level of PnB in this example has been selected such that it lies below the maximum miscibility with water and consequently the system forms a homogeneous mixture. It can be seen from comparative example 2 that the addition of IMS improves the cleaning performance only slightly.
- compositions of example 3 are clear, homogeneous systems which, in use, lose the alcoholic solvent to the ambient and reach a composition at which there is just sufficient alcohol present to solubilise all of the PnB present. At this composition, further loss of volatile solvent results in phase separation of the PnB.
- Comparative example 4 shows that when BD, is present below its maximum miscibility in the starting composition cleaning is less effective.
- each sample was applied to a black ceramic tile and spread over the surface with a clean, dry cloth to form a thin film which was allowed to evaporate to dryness.
- the film was observed closely by eye to determine the formation of any emulsion (indicated by a transformation from a transparent film to an opaque film) .
- the only sample observed to form an emulsion was that of example 13, an embodiment of the invention.
- Examples 14-27 illustrate the effect of the choice of surfactant on product performance.
- PnB are normally phase separated into an aqueous phase and an excess solvent phase. However, in the presence of the co- solvent the formulations of examples 16-19 exhibited a single phase.
- Examples 14 and 15 are control experiments to illustrate the cleaning effect of a single phase system containing PnB, below the maximum miscibility.
- the cleaning performance of these compositions appears slightly better in the presence of the nonionic surfactant (comparative example 14) than the anionic surfactant (comparative example 15) .
- This is in agreement with the results noted in respect of comparative example 1 mentioned above.
- embodiments 17 and 19 that the addition of IPA or IMS as co-solvents in the presence of a slightly increased level of PnB improves the cleaning performance greatly. This is in agreement with the results discussed above comparing examples 1 and 3 as mentioned above.
- Examples 16 and 18 are examples using a nonionic surfactant. Although these compositions had a cleaning performance approaching that of embodiments 17 and 19, the compositions became cloudy on storage. It is to be noted that the anionic surfactant in compositions according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention exhibits better cleaning performance than the nonionic surfactant (compare examples 16 and 17) .
- Comparative examples 20-27 shows that combinations of solvent which fall outside of the scope of the present invention did not have effective cleaning performance. In these comparative compositions no emulsion was formed on the evaporation of the volatile solvent component.
