A washing machine tank cleaner and its preparation method and application TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of synthetic detergent. More particularly, it relates to a washing machine tank cleaner and its preparation method and application. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the increasing improvement of people's living standards, washing machines, as the main appliance for cleaning fabrics, have become quite popular in modern families. However, after using a washing machine for a period of time, the fungi and bacteria in the washing machine tank may spread to the environment, causing harm to human health, and a large amount of dirt (such as scale, fungi, bacteria, etc.) and hair may adhere to the inner tank. If these dirt and hair are not cleaned in time, they will adhere to the surface of the cleaned fabric along with the water flow when the washing machine is used to clean the fabric, causing secondary pollution of the fabric.

[0003] Currently, there are two common ways to clean the washing machine tank. One is to disassemble the washing machine tank and clean it by a professional maintenance worker, but this way is relatively high in cost and troublesome. The other is to use a washing machine tank cleaner for cleaning, which is relatively low in cost and simple and convenient to operate. However, the existing washing machine tank cleaners mainly have the function of inhibiting bacteria, and it is difficult to effectively remove dirt, especially hair, that is, the cleaning effect of the washing machine tank is still limited.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to find a washing machine cleaner that can not only inhibit bacteria but also effectively remove hair and dirt. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application aims to provide a washing machine tank cleaner that not only effectively inhibits bacteria but also effectively removes dirt, and even for the most difficult hair to remove, it can achieve a dissolution rate of more than 99%, having excellent cleaning effect.

[0117] 10 g of the washing machine sump cleaner obtained in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-7 was dissolved in 1 L of water, and the bacteriostasis rates thereof on S. aureus ATCC 6538, E. coli ATCC 25922 and C. albicans ATCC 10231 within 20 min were tested according to the method of WS / T650-2019, and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0118] Table 2. Results of bacteriostasis ability test

[0119] From Table 2, it can be seen that:

[0120] (1) The bacteriostasis rates of Examples 1-7 all reached more than 99.9%, which were significantly better than Comparative Examples 1-4 and 6-7, indicating that the bacteriostasis ability of the washing machine sump cleaner of the present application was better.

[0121] (2) The bacteriostasis rate of Example 1 reached more than 99.95%, while the highest of Comparative Examples 1-4 and 7 which replaced inorganic alkali or buffer alkali or peroxide species could only reach 92.80%, i.e. the bacteriostasis ability of the washing machine sump cleaner of Comparative Examples 1-4 and 7 was significantly worse than Example 1, indicating that in the specific peroxide system of the present application, specific inorganic alkali and specific buffer alkali need to be used to achieve such excellent bacteriostasis ability.

[0122] II. Hair solubility ability test

[0123] 100 g of the washing machine sump cleaner obtained in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-7 was dissolved in 20 L of water, and then 10.0000 g of hair (M0) was added, mixed, and after standing for 30 min, the residual hair was filtered and dried and weighed (M). The solubility rate of the washing machine sump cleaner on hair was calculated according to the formula "Hair solubility rate (%) = (M0-M) / M0 x 100%", and the results are shown in Table 3.

[0124] Table 3. Results of hair solubility ability test

[0125] From Table 3, it can be seen that:

[0126] (1) The solubility rates of Examples 1-7 on hair all reached more than 96%, which were significantly better than Comparative Examples 1-7, indicating that the hair solubility ability of the washing machine sump cleaner of the present application was better.

[0127] (2) Example 1 achieved a hair dissolution rate of over 99%, while Comparative Examples 1-4 and 7, which replaced the inorganic alkali, buffer alkali, or peroxide, could only reach a maximum of 89.3%. That is, the hair dissolution ability of the washing machine tub cleaners in Comparative Examples 1-4 and 7 was significantly worse than that in Example 1. This indicates that in the specific peroxide system of the present invention, specific inorganic alkali and specific buffer alkali are required to achieve such excellent hair dissolution ability.

[0128] (3) Example 1 achieved a hair dissolution rate of over 99%, while Comparative Examples 5-6, which only added inorganic alkali or only added buffer alkali, could only reach a maximum of 90.5%. That is, the hair dissolution ability of the washing machine tub cleaners of Comparative Examples 5-6 was significantly worse than that of Example 1, indicating that in the washing machine tub cleaner of the present invention, inorganic alkali and buffer alkali played a synergistic role in dissolving hair.

[0129] III. Hair Decomposition Ability Test

[0130] Tyrosine standards were dissolved in water to achieve concentrations of 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 μg / mL. Then, 5 mL of 0.4 M sodium carbonate solution and 1 mL of Folin-Ciocalteu reagent were added. The solutions were incubated in a 40℃ water bath for 10 min, and the absorbance was measured at 680 nm. A tyrosine standard curve was plotted with the concentration of the tyrosine standard as the x-axis and the absorbance as the y-axis. The equation is Y = 0.011X + 0.0095, R0. 2 =0.9979.

[0131] Dissolve 2g of the washing machine tub cleaners obtained in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-7 in 100mL of water, then add 1g of hair to each, soak at 30℃ for 20min, and filter to collect the filtrate. Take 1mL of the filtrate and add it to 5mL of 0.4M g sodium carbonate solution and 1mL of Folin reagent. Place in a 40℃ constant temperature water bath for color development for 10min, and measure the absorbance of the solution at 680nm. Determine the concentration of tyrosine in the solution according to the tyrosine standard curve. The results are shown in Table 4.

[0132] Table 4 Results of Hair Decomposition Ability Test

[0133] As shown in Table 4:

[0134] (1) The tyrosine concentration of the filtrate of Examples 1 to 7 reached 54 μg / mL or more, which was significantly better than that of Comparative Examples 1 to 7, indicating that the hair decomposition ability of the washing machine tub cleaner of the present invention is better.

[0135] (2) The tyrosine concentration of the filtrate of Example 1 reached 55.1 μg / mL, while the highest concentration of Comparative Examples 1-4 and 7, which replaced the inorganic base, buffer base, or peroxide, was only 37.6 μg / mL. That is, the hair decomposition ability of the washing machine tub cleaners of Comparative Examples 1-4 and 7 was significantly worse than that of Example 1. This indicates that in the specific peroxide system of the present invention, specific inorganic bases and specific buffer bases are required to achieve such excellent hair decomposition ability.

[0136] (3) The tyrosine concentration in the filtrate of Example 1 reached 55.1 μg / mL, while the highest concentration in Comparative Examples 5-6, which only added inorganic alkali or only added buffer alkali, was only 38.3%. This means that the hair-decomposing ability of the washing machine tub cleaners in Comparative Examples 5-6 was significantly worse than that in Example 1.

[0137] Example 1 demonstrates that in the washing machine tub cleaner of the present invention, inorganic alkali and buffer alkali play a synergistic role in decomposing hair.

[0138] IV. Dirt Removal Ability Test

[0139] According to the method in Appendix A of QB / T 4314, the detergency of the washing machine tub cleaners obtained in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-7 was tested, and the results are shown in Table 5.

[0140] Table 5. Results of detergency test

[0141] As shown in Table 5:

[0142] (1) The cleaning power of Examples 1 to 7 is significantly higher than that of Comparative Examples 1 to 7, indicating that the cleaning agent of the washing machine tub of the present invention has better dirt removal ability.

[0143] (2) The detergency of Example 1 reached 96.2%, while the highest detergency of Comparative Examples 1-4 and 7, which replaced the inorganic alkali, buffer alkali, or peroxide, was only 86.9%. That is, the detergency of the washing machine tub cleaners in Comparative Examples 1-4 and 7 was significantly worse than that of Example 1. This indicates that in the specific peroxide system of the present invention, specific inorganic alkalis and specific buffer alkalis are required to achieve such excellent dirt removal ability.

[0144] (3) The detergency of Example 1 reached 96.2%, while the highest detergency of Comparative Examples 5-6, which only added inorganic alkali or only added buffer alkali, could only reach 91.5%. That is, the detergency of the washing machine tub cleaner of Comparative Examples 5-6 was significantly worse than that of Example 1, indicating that in the washing machine tub cleaner of the present invention, inorganic alkali and buffer alkali played a synergistic role in removing dirt.

[0145] V. On-site testing of the washing machine tub

[0146] Select 42 washing machines with similar hair and dirt pollution in the tub, divide into 14 groups, 3 washing machines in each group. Dissolve 300g washing machine tub cleaner obtained in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-7 in 60L water, then take 20L into the washing machine drum of different groups, start the standard washing mode of the washing machine, and observe the hair and dirt residues in the washing machine tub after washing, the results are shown in Table 6.

[0147] Table 6: Field test results

[0148] Note: The order from less to more in Table 6 is: none < very little < little < less < more < much < very much.

[0149] From Table 6, we can see that:

[0150] (1) The hair and dirt residues of Examples 1-7 are significantly less than those of Comparative Examples 1-7, indicating that the hair dissolution capacity and dirt removal capacity of the washing machine tub cleaner of the present application are both better.

[0151] (2) There is no hair and dirt residue in Example 1, while Comparative Examples 1-4, 7, which replace inorganic alkali or buffer alkali or peroxide species, all have more / much hair or dirt residue, i.e. the hair dissolution capacity and dirt removal capacity of the washing machine tub cleaner of Comparative Examples 1-4, 7 are significantly worse than that of Example 1, indicating that in the specific peroxide system of the present application, a specific inorganic alkali and a specific buffer alkali must be used to achieve such excellent hair dissolution capacity and dirt removal capacity.

[0152] (3) There is still hair and dirt residue in Comparative Examples 5-6, which only add inorganic alkali or only add buffer alkali, i.e. the hair dissolution capacity and dirt removal capacity of the washing machine tub cleaner of Comparative Examples 5-6 are significantly worse than that of Example 1, indicating that inorganic alkali and buffer alkali in the washing machine tub cleaner of the present application play a synergistic role in dissolving hair and removing dirt.
