Definitions
- Powder laundry detergents are widely used that have sodium percarbonate together with TAED as an activator to effect cleaning and stain removal; these formulations also have high levels of insoluble matter present.
- WO 2010/122050 discloses detergent particles prepared by extruding a surfactant mixture, comprising anionic and non-ionic surfactant, and coating with sodium carbonate. It would be advantageous to more efficacious detergent particles without having to increase the surfactant level of the particles.
- the present invention provides a particulate detergent composition comprising:
- a surfactant selected from: anionic and non-ionic surfactants
- the particulate detergent composition comprises from 0 to 1 wt% peroxide, preferably 0 to 0.1 wt % and most preferably 0 wt%.
- the present invention provides a particulate detergent composition comprising:
- a surfactant selected from: anionic and non-ionic surfactants
- the particulate detergent composition comprises from 0 to 1 wt% peroxide, preferably 0 to 0.1 wt % and most preferably 0 wt%,
- the particulate detergent particles have perpendicular dimensions x, y and z, wherein x is from 0.5 to 2 mm, y is from 2 to 8mm, and z is from 2 to 8 mm, and wherein the inorganic salt are present on the detergent particle as a coating and the surfactant is present as a core.
- integers (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) are present in the core.
- the present invention provides a method of treating a textile, the method comprising the steps of:
- aqueous solution of the laundry treatment composition having a pH in the range from 7.2 to 10 and comprising: from 0.1 to 3.0 g/L, preferably 0.3 to 1 .5 g/L, of the surfactant; from 0.1 to 3.0 g/L, preferably 0.3 to 1 .5 g/L of an active selected from: citric acid and sodium salts thereof; from 0.02 g/L to 0.65 g/L, preferably 0.06 to 0.33 g/L, of a phosphonate sequestrant; and, from 0.1 to 3.0 g/L, preferably from 0.3 to 1 .5 g/L of sodium carbonate; and,
- the particulate detergent composition is devoid of zeolite.
- the particulate detergent composition is and sodium tripoly phosphate (STP) free.
- STP sodium tripoly phosphate
- the preferred format is one in which integers (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) are preferably extruded substantially as described in WO 2010/122050 and coated with integer (v).
- step (b) drying the liquid surfactant blend of step (a) in an evaporator or drier to a moisture content of less than 1 .5 wt% and cooling the output from the evaporator or dryer;
- the particulate detergent composition when dissolved in an aqueous medium is alkaline.

Field of Invention The present invention relates to a concentrated solid laundry detergent

Background of Invention Powder laundry detergents are widely used that have sodium percarbonate together with TAED as an activator to effect cleaning and stain removal; these formulations also have high levels of insoluble matter present.

Soil release polymers improve the main wash performance of the compositions when used in the low in wash surfactant process of the present invention. One preferred class of polymer is the fabric-substantive polymers comprising at least one of (i) saccharide or (ii) dicarboxylic acid and polyol monomer units.
Typically these have soil release properties and while they can have a primary detergency effect they generally assist in subsequent cleaning. Generally the soil release polymers for polyester will comprise polymers of aromatic dicarboxylic acids and alkylene glycols (including polymers containing polyalkylene glycols).
The polymeric soil release agents useful herein especially include those soil release agents having:
(a) one or more nonionic hydrophilic components consisting essentially of:
(i) polyoxyethylene segments with a degree of polymerization of at least 2, or
(ii) oxypropylene or polyoxypropylene segments with a degree of
polymerization of from 2 to 10, wherein said hydrophilic segment does not encompass any oxypropylene unit unless it is bonded to adjacent moieties at each end by ether linkages, or
(iii) a mixture of oxyalkylene units comprising oxyethylene and from 1 to about 30 oxypropylene units wherein said mixture contains a sufficient amount of oxyethylene units such that the hydrophilic component has hydrophilicity great enough to increase the hydrophilicity of conventional polyester synthetic fibre surfaces upon deposit of the soil release agent on such surface, said hydrophilic segments preferably comprising at least about 25% oxyethylene units and more preferably, especially for such components having about 20 to 30 oxypropylene units, at least about 50% oxyethylene units; or
(b) one or more hydrophobic components comprising:
(i) C3 oxyalkylene terephthalate segments, wherein, if said hydrophobic components also comprise oxyethylene terephthalate, the ratio of oxyethylene terephthalate: C3 oxyalkylene terephthalate units is about 2:1 or lower,
(ii) C4 -C6 alkylene or oxy C4 -Ce alkylene segments, or mixtures
therein,
(iii) poly (vinyl ester) segments, preferably polyvinyl acetate), having a degree of polymerization of at least 2, or (iv) Ci -C alkyl ether or C hydroxyalkyl ether substituents, or mixtures therein, wherein said substituents are present in the form of Ci -C4 alkyl ether or C4 hydroxyalkyl ether cellulose derivatives, or mixtures therein, and such cellulose derivatives are amphiphilic, whereby they have a sufficient level of Ci -C alkyl ether and/or C hydroxyalkyl ether units to deposit upon conventional polyester synthetic fibre surfaces and retain a sufficient level of hydroxyls, once adhered to such conventional synthetic fibre surface, to increase fibre surface hydrophilicity, or a combination of (a) and (b).
Typically, the polyoxyethylene segments of (a)(i) will have a degree of
polymerization of from about 200, although higher levels can be used, preferably from 3 to about 150, more preferably from 6 to about 100. Suitable oxy C4 -Ce alkylene hydrophobic segments include, but are not limited to, end-caps of polymeric soil release agents such as MO3 S(CH2)n OCH2 CH2 O-, where M is sodium and n is an integer from 4-6, as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,721 ,580, issued Jan. 26, 1988 to Gosselink.
Soil release agents characterized by polyvinyl ester) hydrophobic segments include graft copolymers of polyvinyl ester), e.g., Ci -C6 vinyl esters, preferably polyvinyl acetate) grafted onto polyalkylene oxide backbones, such as polyethylene oxide backbones. See European Patent Application 0 219 048, published Apr. 22, 1987 by Kud, et al. Commercially available soil release agents of this kind include the SOKALAN type of material, e.g., SOKALAN HP-22, available from BASF (West Germany).
One type of preferred soil release agent is a copolymer having random blocks of ethylene terephthalate and polyethylene oxide (PEO) terephthalate. The
molecular weight of this polymeric soil release agent is in the range of from about 25,000 to about 55,000. See U.S. Pat. No. 3,959,230 to Hays, issued May 25, 1976 and U.S. Pat. No. 3,893,929 to Basadur issued Jul. 8, 1975. Another preferred polymeric soil release agent is a polyester with repeat units of ethylene terephthalate units contains 10 to 15 wt% of ethylene terephthalate units together with 90 to 80 wt% weight of polyoxyethylene terephthalate units, derived from a polyoxyethylene glycol of average molecular weight 300-5,000. Examples of this polymer include the commercially available material ZELCON 5126 (from DuPont) and MILEASE T (from ICI). See also U.S. Pat. No. 4,702,857, issued Oct. 27, 1987 to Gosselink.
Another preferred polymeric soil release agent is a sulphonated product of a substantially linear ester oligomer comprised of an oligomeric ester backbone of terephthaloyl and oxyalkyleneoxy repeat units and terminal moieties covalently attached to the backbone. These soil release agents are described fully in U.S.

Gosselink, and the block polyester oligomeric compounds of U.S. Pat. No.
4,702,857, issued Oct. 27, 1987 to Gosselink.
Preferred polymeric soil release agents also include the soil release agents of U.S. Pat. No. 4,877,896, issued Oct. 31 , 1989 to Maldonado et al, which discloses anionic, especially sulfoarolyl, end-capped terephthalate esters.
Still another preferred soil release agent is an oligomer with repeat units of terephthaloyl units, sulfoisoterephthaloyl units, oxyethyleneoxy and oxy-1 ,2- propylene units. The repeat units form the backbone of the oligomer and are
preferably terminated with modified isethionate end-caps. A particularly preferred soil release agent of this type comprises about one sulfoisophthaloyl unit, 5 terephthaloyl units, oxyethyleneoxy and oxy-1 ,2-propyleneoxy units in a ratio of from about 1 .7 to about 1 .8, and two end-cap units of sodium 2-(2- hydroxyethoxy)-ethanesulphonate. Said soil release agent also comprises from about 0.5% to about 20%, by weight of the oligomer, of a crystalline-reducing stabilizer, preferably selected from the group consisting of xylene sulfonate, cumene sulfonate, toluene sulfonate, and mixtures thereof. Suitable soil release polymers are described in WO 2008095626 (Clariant); WO 2006133867 (Clariant); WO 2006133868 (Clariant); WO 2005097959 (Clariant); WO 9858044 (Clariant); WO 2000004120 (Rhodia Chimie); US 6242404 (Rhodia Inc); WO 2001023515 (Rhodia Inc); WO 9941346 (Rhodia Chim); WO 9815346 (Rhodia Inc); WO 9741 197 (BASF); EP 728795 (BASF); US 5008032 (BASF); WO 2002077063 (BASF); EP 483606 ( BASF); EP 442101 (BASF); WO 9820092 (Proctor & Gamble); EP 201 124 (Proctor & Gamble); EP 199403 (Proctor & Gamble); DE 2527793 (Proctor & Gamble); WO 9919429 (Proctor & Gamble); WO 9859030 (Proctor & Gamble); US 5834412 (Proctor & Gamble); WO 9742285 (Proctor & Gamble); WO 9703162 (Proctor & Gamble); WO 9502030 (Proctor & Gamble); WO 9502028 (Proctor & Gamble); EP 357280 (Proctor & Gamble); US 41 16885 (Proctor & Gamble); WO 9532232 (Henkel); WO 9532232 (Henkel); WO 9616150 (Henkel); WO 9518207 (Henkel); EP 1099748 (Henkel); FR 2619393 (Colgate Palmolive); DE 341 1941 (Colgate Palmolive); DE 3410810 (Colgate Palmolive); WO 2002018474 (RWE-DEA MINERALOEL & CHEM AG; SASOL GERMANY GMBH); EP 743358 (Textil Color AG); PL 148326 (Instytut Ciezkiej Syntezy Organicznej "Blachownia", Pol.); JP 2001 181692 (Lion Corp); JP

The polyesters are preferably nonionic and comprise a mid block of spaced apart terephthalate repeat units and at least one end block based on polyethylene glycol with a lower alkyl or hydrogen termination.
SHAPE
Preferably the coated laundry detergent particle is curved.
The coated laundry detergent particle may be lenticular (shaped like a whole dried lentil), an oblate ellipsoid, where z and y are the equatorial diameters and x is the polar diameter; preferably y = z.
The coated laundry detergent particle may be shaped as a disc.
Preferably the coated laundry detergent particle does not have hole; that is to say, the coated laundry detergent particle does not have a conduit passing there though that passes through the core, i.e., the coated detergent particle has a topologic genus of zero.
It is most preferred that particulate detergent particles has perpendicular dimensions x, y and z, wherein x is from 0.5 to 2 mm, y is from 2 to 8mm, and z is from 2 to 8 mm. The inorganic salt is present on the detergent particle as a coating and the surfactant is present as a core. The inorganic coating reduces agglomeration and deterioration on storage.
CORE
SURFACTANT
In general, the nonionic and anionic surfactants of the surfactant system may be chosen from the surfactants described "Surface Active Agents" Vol. 1 , by
Schwartz & Perry, Interscience 1949, Vol. 2 by Schwartz, Perry & Berch, Interscience 1958, in the current edition of "McCutcheon's Emulsifiers and Detergents" published by Manufacturing Confectioners Company or in
"Tenside-Taschenbuch", H. Stache, 2nd Edn., Carl Hauser Verlag, 1981 .
Preferably the surfactants used are saturated.
Anionic Surfactants
Suitable anionic detergent compounds which may be used are usually water- soluble alkali metal salts of organic sulphates and sulphonates having alkyl radicals containing from about 8 to about 22 carbon atoms, the term alkyl being used to include the alkyl portion of higher acyl radicals. Examples of suitable synthetic anionic detergent compounds are sodium and potassium alkyl sulphates, especially those obtained by sulphating higher Cs to Cis alcohols, produced for example from tallow or coconut oil, sodium and potassium alkyl C9 to C2o benzene sulphonates, particularly sodium linear secondary alkyl Ci0 to Ci5 benzene sulphonates; and sodium alkyl glyceryl ether sulphates, especially those ethers of the higher alcohols derived from tallow or coconut oil and synthetic alcohols derived from petroleum. Most preferred anionic surfactants are sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES), particularly preferred with 1 to 3 ethoxy groups, sodium Cio to Ci5 alkyl benzene sulphonates and sodium C12 to Cis alkyl sulphates. Also applicable are surfactants such as those described in EP-A-328 177 (Unilever), which show resistance to salting-out, the alkyl polyglycoside surfactants described in EP-A-070 074, and alkyl monoglycosides. The chains of the surfactants may be branched or linear.
Soaps may also be present. The fatty acid soap used preferably contains from about 16 to about 22 carbon atoms, preferably in a straight chain configuration. The anionic contribution from soap is preferably from 0 to 30 wt % of the total anionic.
Preferably, at least 50 wt % of the anionic surfactant is selected from: sodium C to Ci5 alkyl benzene sulphonates; and, sodium Ci2 to Ci8 alkyl sulphates. Even more preferably, the anionic surfactant is sodium C to Ci5 alkyl benzene sulphonates.
Nonionic Surfactants
Suitable nonionic detergent compounds which may be used include, in particular, the reaction products of compounds having a hydrophobic group and a reactive hydrogen atom, for example, aliphatic alcohols, acids, amides or alkyl phenols with alkylene oxides, especially ethylene oxide either alone or with propylene oxide. Preferred nonionic detergent compounds are C6 to C22 alkyl phenol- ethylene oxide condensates, generally 5 to 25 EO, i.e. 5 to 25 units of ethylene oxide per molecule, and the condensation products of aliphatic Cs to Cis primary or secondary linear or branched alcohols with ethylene oxide, generally 5 to 50 EO. Preferably, the non-ionic is 10 to 50 EO, more preferably 20 to 35 EO. Alkyl ethoxylates are particularly preferred.
Cationic surfactant may be present as minor ingredients at levels preferably between 0 to 5 wt % on total surfactant.
Preferably all the surfactants are mixed together before being dried. Conventional mixing equipment may be used. The surfactant core of the laundry detergent particle may be formed by extrusion or roller compaction and subsequently coated with an inorganic salt.
Calcium Tolerant Surfactant System
In another aspect the surfactant system used is calcium tolerant and this is a preferred aspect because this reduces the need for builder.
Surfactant blends that do not require builders to be present for effective
detergency in hard water are preferred. Such blends are called calcium tolerant surfactant blends if they pass the test set out hereinafter. However, the invention may also be of use for washing with soft water, either naturally occurring or made using a water softener. In this case, calcium tolerance is no longer important and blends other than calcium tolerant ones may be used.
Calcium-tolerance of the surfactant blend is tested as follows: The surfactant blend in question is prepared at a concentration of 0.7 g surfactant solids per litre of water containing sufficient calcium ions to give a French hardness of 40 (4 x 10"3 Molar Ca2+). Other hardness ion free electrolytes such as sodium chloride, sodium sulphate, and sodium hydroxide are added to the solution to adjust the ionic strength to 0.05M and the pH to 10. The adsorption of light of wavelength 540 nm through 4 mm of sample is measured 15 minutes after sample preparation. Ten measurements are made and an average value is calculated. Samples that give an absorption value of less than 0.08 are deemed to be calcium tolerant. Examples of surfactant blends that satisfy the above test for calcium tolerance include those having a major part of LAS surfactant (which is not of itself calcium tolerant) blended with one or more other surfactants (co-surfactants) that are calcium tolerant to give a blend that is sufficiently calcium tolerant to be usable with little or no builder and to pass the given test. Suitable calcium tolerant co-
surfactants include SLES 1 -7EO, and alkyl-ethoxylate nonionic surfactants, particularly those with melting points less than 40°C.
A LAS/SLES surfactant blend has a superior foam profile to a LAS nonionic surfactant blend and is therefore preferred for hand washing formulations requiring high levels of foam. SLES may be used at levels of up to 30 wt % of the surfactant blend.
Inorganic salts:
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that while multiple layered coatings, of the same or different coating materials, could be applied, a single coating layer is preferred, for simplicity of operation, and to maximise the thickness of the coating. The amount of coating should lay in the range 1 to 40 wt% of the particle, preferably 20 to 40 wt%, more preferably 25 to 35 wt% for the best results in terms of anti-caking properties of the detergent particles.
The coating is preferably applied to the surface of the surfactant core, by deposition from an aqueous solution of the water soluble inorganic salt. In the alternative coating can be performed using a slurry. The aqueous solution preferably contains greater than 50g/L, more preferably 200 g/L of the salt. An aqueous spray-on of the coating solution in a fluidised bed has been found to give good results and may also generate a slight rounding of the detergent particles during the fluidisation process. Drying and/or cooling may be needed to finish the process.
A preferred calcium tolerant coated laundry detergent particle comprises 15 to 100 wt% on surfactant of anionic surfactant of which 20 to 30 wt% on surfactant is sodium lauryl ether sulphate.
The coated laundry detergent particle
Preferably, the coated laundry detergent particle comprises from 10 to 100 wt %, more preferably 50 to 100 wt %, even more preferably 80 to 100 wt %, most preferably 90 to 100 wt % of a laundry detergent formulation in a package.
The package is that of a commercial formulation for sale to the general public and is preferably in the range of 0.01 kg to 5 kg, preferably 0.02 kg to 2 kg, most preferably 0.5 kg to 2 kg.
Preferably, the coated laundry detergent particle is such that at least 90 to 100 % of the coated laundry detergent particles in the in the x, y and z dimensions are within a 20 %, preferably 10%, variable from the largest to the smallest coated laundry detergent particle.
Water content
The particle preferably comprises from 0 to 15 wt % water, more preferably 0 to 10 wt %, most preferably from 1 to 5 wt % water, at 293K and 50% relative humidity. This facilitates the storage stability of the particle and its mechanical properties.
Other Adjuncts
The adjuncts as described below may be present in the coating or the core. These may be in the core or the coating.
Fluorescent Agent
The coated laundry detergent particle preferably comprises a fluorescent agent (optical brightener). Fluorescent agents are well known and many such
fluorescent agents are available commercially. Usually, these fluorescent agents are supplied and used in the form of their alkali metal salts, for example, the sodium salts. The total amount of the fluorescent agent or agents used in the composition is generally from 0.005 to 2 wt %, more preferably 0.01 to 0.1 wt %. Suitable Fluorescer for use in the invention are described in chapter 7 of Industrial Dyes edited by K.Hunger 2003 Wiley-VCH ISBN 3-527-30426-6.

Preferred classes of fluorescer are: Di-styryl biphenyl compounds, e.g. Tinopal (Trade Mark) CBS-X, Di-amine stilbene di-sulphonic acid compounds, e.g. Tinopal DMS pure Xtra and Blankophor (Trade Mark) HRH, and Pyrazoline compounds, e.g. Blankophor SN. Preferred fluorescers are: sodium 2 (4-styryl-3-sulfophenyl)- 2H-napthol[1 ,2-d]triazole, disodium 4,4'-bis{[(4-anilino-6-(N methyl-N-2
hydroxyethyl) amino 1 ,3,5-triazin-2-yl)]amino}stilbene-2-2' disulfonate, disodium 4,4'-bis{[(4-anilino-6-morpholino-1 ,3,5-triazin-2-yl)]amino} stilbene-2-2' disulfonate, and disodium 4,4'-bis(2-sulfostyryl)biphenyl.
Tinopal® DMS is the disodium salt of disodium 4,4'-bis{[(4-anilino-6-morpholino- 1 ,3,5-triazin-2-yl)]amino} stilbene-2-2' disulfonate. Tinopal® CBS is the disodium salt of disodium 4,4'-bis(2-sulfostyryl)biphenyl.
Perfume
Preferably the composition comprises a perfume. The perfume is preferably in the range from 0.001 to 3 wt %, most preferably 0.1 to 1 wt %. Many suitable examples of perfumes are provided in the CTFA (Cosmetic, Toiletry and
Fragrance Association) 1992 International Buyers Guide, published by CFTA Publications and OPD 1993 Chemicals Buyers Directory 80th Annual Edition, published by Schnell Publishing Co. It is commonplace for a plurality of perfume components to be present in a formulation. In the compositions of the present invention it is envisaged that there will be four or more, preferably five or more, more preferably six or more or even seven or more different perfume components. In perfume mixtures preferably 15 to 25 wt% are top notes. Top notes are defined by Poucher (Journal of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists 6(2):80 [1955]).
Preferred top-notes are selected from citrus oils, linalool, linalyl acetate, lavender, dihydromyrcenol, rose oxide and cis-3-hexanol. It is preferred that the coated laundry detergent particle does not contain a peroxygen bleach, e.g., sodium percarbonate, sodium perborate, and peracid.

The method of the invention may be carried out in the presence of phospholipase classified as EC 3.1 .1 .4 and/or EC 3.1 .1 .32. As used herein, the term
phospholipase is an enzyme which has activity towards phospholipids. Phospholipids, such as lecithin or phosphatidylcholine, consist of glycerol esterified with two fatty acids in an outer (sn-1 ) and the middle (sn-2) positions and esterified with phosphoric acid in the third position; the phosphoric acid, in turn, may be esterified to an amino-alcohol. Phospholipases are enzymes which participate in the hydrolysis of phospholipids. Several types of phospholipase activity can be distinguished, including phospholipases Ai and A2 which hydrolyze one fatty acyl group (in the sn-1 and sn-2 position, respectively) to form
lysophospholipid; and lysophospholipase (or phospholipase B) which can hydrolyze the remaining fatty acyl group in lysophospholipid. Phospholipase C and phospholipase D (phosphodiesterases) release diacyl glycerol or
phosphatidic acid respectively.
Suitable proteases include those of animal, vegetable or microbial origin. Microbial origin is preferred. Chemically modified or protein engineered mutants are included.

WO2009/090576, WO2009/148983 and WO2008/007318.
We have found that the composition of the invention serves to boost enzyme cleaning. We have noticed that proteases, e.g., Savinase™, and lipases, e.g., Lipex™, are particularly boosted in efficacy. The boosting of the enzyme efficacy is ascribed to the high citrate, sequestrate levels.
Enzyme Stabilizers
Any enzyme present in the composition may be stabilized using conventional stabilizing agents, e.g., a polyol such as propylene glycol or glycerol, a sugar or sugar alcohol, lactic acid, boric acid, or a boric acid derivative, e.g., an aromatic borate ester, or a phenyl boronic acid derivative such as 4-formylphenyl boronic acid, and the composition may be formulated as described in e.g. WO 92/19709 and WO 92/19708.

The non-peroxide compositions (J and S) were added at 38 g and the peroxide composition was added at 85g respectively to the wash.
After washing, the cloths are left to dry in the dark overnight. The reflection measurements are then taking and · E, with respect to the white tile
measurement, is recorded. The · E results are determined in accord with "Colour Physics for Industry", published by the Society of Dyers and Colourists 1997).
Stain Removal Index (SRI) is then calculated according to;
SRI = 100 - · E (after washing) The value of the stain removal index value is indicative of the amount of stain removed.
A comparison of the SRI values for a number of stains washed in the peroxide containing and non peroxide containing formulations is given in table 1 .
Table 1
As is evident the non-peroxide formulation provides comparative results with the peroxide composition.
Table 2 shows SRI values obtained during a 15°C wash.
Table 2:
As is evident the non-peroxide fornnulation provides superior results compared to the peroxide composition.
A comparison of the SRI values for a number of stains washed in the peroxide containing and non peroxide containing formulations is given in Table 3.
Table 3:
Stain Formulation J Formulation S Least Significant
Comparative Invention Difference
Black Coffee 96.51 98.55 0.7
of cotton
Black Tea 91 .17 97.34 4.5 on polyester
Red Wine on 84.36 93.92 3.1
cotton
It is evident from Table 3 that the formulation is significantly better at stain removal than formulation J. This is despite formulation J having significantly higher amount of surfactant.
