AI Technical Summary
Existing detergents and cleaning agents in solid or liquid form face challenges with dosing accuracy and dissolution rates, particularly with high-viscosity liquids, which affect washing or cleaning efficiency.
A surfactant- and water-containing shaped body with a gelling agent of formula (I) and a salt, such as 1,3:2,4-di-O-benzylidene-D-sorbitol, is used to create a dimensionally stable, ready-to-use solid detergent or cleaning agent with improved dissolution properties.
The solution provides rapid and sustained cleaning effects by ensuring quick dissolution and maintaining shape stability under typical storage and transport conditions.
Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to washing or cleaning agent tablets ready for single dosage.Detergents or cleaning agents are offered to the consumer in the form of solid or liquid products. The solid and liquid washing or cleaning agents were originally packaged in the form of larger containers (for example boxes, bags or bottles containing up to several kilograms or litres of the agent), from which the agent must be removed in the amount required for the application. These large containers have recently been at least partially detached by predosed confection moulds ("unit can"). These dosage units are, for example, tablets or bags.The dosage units may be packaged in a water-insoluble film or a water-soluble film. While a water-insoluble film must be removed by the consumer before use of the metering unit, a film which dissolves upon introduction into the aqueous washing or cleaning liquor can remain on the metering unit. The latter has the advantage of facilitated dosing accuracy in the case of flowable dosing units.Therefore, in addition to tabletting pulverulent premix into tablets, the formulation of liquid or powders in water-soluble bags is of increasing importance. Corresponding products are generally distinguished from tablets by a shortened dissolution time. Short dissolution times of the dosage units in turn have an advantageous effect on the washing or cleaning result because the washing or cleaning-active effect of the dosage unit then comes to bear more quickly and can develop correspondingly longer with an equally long duration of the washing or cleaning process. However, as viscosity increases, liquid formulations typically lose the advantages based on rapid dissolution because higher viscosity is usually associated with slower dissolution rate. On the other hand, the higher the viscosity of the liquid, the higher the dimensional stability of the dosage unit formed therefrom. Highly viscous gels can be formed into a shape which determines the shape of the dosage unit formed from them and the film enclosing them, as in a film-wrapped tablet. In contrast, low viscosity liquids take on the form which results essentially from the film bag surrounding them. As in the case of tablets produced by generally compressing pulverulent constituents, it is possible to dispense with a film covering in the case of moldings formed from highly viscous gels, without the absence of the covering alone leading to a significant change in the shape.Thus, for example, viscoelastic solid surfactant compositions are known from international patent application WO 2018 / 229036 A1, which comprise benzylidenealditol compounds as thickeners.Against this technical background, the present invention had the object of providing a solid detergent or cleaning composition ready for single dosage, having even better dissolution properties.This object is achieved by a surfactant- and water-containing shaped body comprising at least one gel former of the general formula (I), in which * represents a covalent single bond between an oxygen atom of the hexahexol backbone and the intended radical, R 1, R 2 and R 3 independently of one another, represent hydrogen, halogen, C 1- C 4- alkyl, -CN, -NO 2, - NH 2, - CO 2 H, -OH, -C(=O)-NH-NH 2, -nh-c(=o)-(C 2- C 4- alkyl), C 1- C 4- alkoxy, C 1- C 4- alkoxy-C 2- C 4- alkyl and mixtures thereof, and p is a number from 1 to 3, in particular 1 or 2 and particularly preferably 2, and at least one salt.The hexane-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexol moiety in the compounds of formula (I) is accessible from hexoses by reduction of the carbonyl function. Depending on the type of hexose, the chiral centers may be R- or S-configured; for reasons of better availability of the starting hexoses, the hexane-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexoses accessible from D-hexoses are preferred. Reaction with 1, 2 or 3 equivalents of optionally substituted benzaldehyde gives the compounds of the formula (I), with the di-O-benzylidene compounds being preferred. The compound of the formula (I) is selected in particular from 1,3:2,4-di-O-benzylidene-D-sorbitol; 1,3:2,4-di-O-(p-methylbenzylidene)-D-sorbitol; 1,3:2,4-di-O-(p-chlorobenzylidene)-D-sorbitol; 1,3:2,4-di-O-(2,4-dimethylbenzylidene)-D-sorbitol; 1,3:2,4-di-O-(p-ethylbenzylidene)-D-sorbitol; 1,3:2,4-di-O-(3,4-dimethylbenzylidene)-D-sorbitol or mixtures thereof.

For this purpose, in the course of sample production, the sample is introduced in the liquid state, for example at 80° C., solidified in the cuvette by cooling to the measurement temperature and then measured. It is preferred if the agent according to the invention has a transmission (at 20° C.) of at least 25%, more preferably at least 30%, more preferably at least 40%, in particular of at least 50%, particularly preferably of at least 60%.The shaped body according to the invention can be produced by first forming a liquid composition by heating a mixture containing at least the gel formers essential to the invention and water to a temperature above the sol-gel transition temperature of the mixture, then optionally, if not already present at the beginning in the mixture, mixing in the remaining constituents of the shaped body individually or in separately produced mixtures without the temperature falling below the sol-gel transition temperature, and then adding the heated liquid composition containing all constituents of the shaped body to a mold and cooling it there below the sol-gel transition temperature.Normally, heating to a temperature of at most 80° C. to 90° C. is entirely sufficient. The liquid composition is brought in the mold to cure below the sol-gel transition temperature of the liquid composition. It is preferred if the liquid composition for forming the shaped body is cooled to not less than 20° C., in particular to not less than 25° C., particularly preferably to not less than 30° C.

In each case, a 30 g shaped body was introduced into 1.5 l of water heated to 40° C. and stirred at this temperature using a magnetic stirrer. After 40 minutes, the undissolved residue was removed, dried and weighed. c) In parallel, a 30 g shaped body was used together with standardized filling laundry in the washing cycle of a washing machine Miele® W1714 (determination of 5 times).
