Description

[0001] The present invention relates to an aqueous liquid hand dishwashing composition comprising (i) a surfactant system comprising at least one anionic surfactant and at least one amine oxide cosurfactant, and (ii) at least one enzyme selected from protease and amylase, (iii) an inorganic sulfur-based antioxidant and (iv) optionally an inorganic salt other than (iii). BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Modern dishwashing detergents contain a surfactant system for soaking and removing stubborn or greasy dirt. For even better performance and easier cleaning for the user, these detergents may contain one or more types of enzymes.

[0003] Protein and carbohydrate soils can be difficult to remove when washing dishes by hand. In automatic dishwashing detergents (ADCs), these soils are removed by adding enzymes such as proteases and amylases to the dry, solid ADCs; however, such enzymes are less stable in aqueous liquid dishwashing detergents. The presence of a surfactant system, particularly one containing anionic surfactants, appears to destabilize the enzymes during storage in an aqueous medium.

[0004] Some surfactants contain traces of inorganic peroxides used in their manufacture. However, even these small amounts of inorganic peroxides can significantly impair the enzymes if they are also present in the cleaning agent.

[0005] Furthermore, for environmental reasons, the use of microplastics such as polyacrylic acid derivatives, which were used in the past as builders and to regulate the viscosity of liquid cleaning systems, is undesirable.

[0006] For manufacturers, it is a challenge to produce highly active, aqueous hand dishwashing detergents that can be precisely dosed and are stable during storage, without adding components that are either undesirable or are now even banned (such as microplastics).

[0007] EP 3 284 805 A1 discloses a hand dishwashing detergent comprising a surfactant system with an anionic surfactant and additionally an amine oxide co-surfactant, a protease and an enzyme stabilizer selected from inorganic potassium salts.

[0008] US 2019 / 0376008 A1 refers to dishwashing detergents comprising a protease and / or amylase, a surfactant system with sodium olefin sulfonate and sodium lauryl ether sulfate as anionic surfactants and at least one amphoteric surfactant, as well as a viscosity regulator.

[0009] DE 10 2017 223 275 A1 describes aqueous liquid cleaning agent compositions containing a synergistic combination of a protease and an amylase, both with a defined sequence, and furthermore a surfactant system comprising an amine oxide, a fatty alcohol ether sulfate and optionally a betaine.

[0010] WO 2014 / 158490 A1 discloses enzyme-containing detergent and pre-wash compositions comprising surfactants, amylase and a reducing agent in a ratio of 1:1 to 3:1, a source of alkalinity, a builder and water, wherein the reducing agent is selected from sodium sulfite, sodium metasulfite and sodium phosphite.

[0011] DE 10 2021 206 648 A1 relates to a hand dishwashing composition comprising surfactants, catalase, and at least one other enzyme. This document explains that the presence of catalase increases the stability of the other enzymes and that potassium salts have a stabilizing effect on hydrolytic enzymes.

[0012] WO 2018 / 086847 A1 discloses amylases with specific amino acid sequences that are particularly suitable for aqueous detergent compositions. This document mentions that reducing agents and antioxidants increase the stability of enzymes. Sodium sulfite and reducing sugar compounds are given as examples.

[0013] The aim of the present invention was to provide an aqueous liquid composition for hand dishwashing that is mild and effective, has a stable storage life, can be dosed economically, provides excellent cleaning results even after storage, and facilitates hand dishwashing.

[0014] This objective was achieved by the aqueous hand dishwashing composition of the present invention by providing a balanced system of components that makes the composition stable in storage (no phase separation, no precipitation of components, maintenance of the activity of the ingredients), is environmentally friendly and can be dosed accurately and therefore economically due to its viscosity.

One commercially available mannanase is Mannaway™ (Novozymes A / S). Sulfur-based antioxidant (iii)

[0078] The hand-washing composition of the present invention comprises an antioxidant based on sulfur-containing reducing agents. Preferred antioxidants are inorganic sulfur-based antioxidants, such as sulfite, bisulfite, metabisulfite, and thiosulfate salts. Some examples of these antioxidants are listed below as sodium salts; however, they can also be used as potassium, ammonium, magnesium, lithium, or calcium salts. - Sodium sulfite (Na2SO3) - Sodium bisulfite or sodium hydrogen sulfite (NaHSO3) - Sodium metabisulfite or sodium pyrosulfite (Na2S3O3) - Sodium pyrosulfite (Na2S2O3)

[0079] Preferred inorganic sulfur-based antioxidants are: - Sodium sulfite (Na2SO3) - Sodium bisulfite (NaHSO3) - Sodium metabisulfite (Na2S2O5) - Sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3) - Potassium sulfite (K2SO3) - Potassium bisulfite (KHSO3) - Potassium metabisulfite (K2S2O5) - Potassium thiosulfate (K2S2O3) - Calcium sulfite (CaSO3) - Calcium bisulfite (Ca(HSO3)2) - Calcium thiosulfate (CaS2O3) - Ammonium bisulfite (NH4HSO3) - Ammonium thiosulfate ((NH4)2S2O3)

[0080] The composition according to the invention comprises the antioxidant in an amount suitable to decompose any inorganic peroxide present in any of the compounds added to the composition, such as the surfactant(s). On the other hand, the added amount should not adversely affect the detergent composition.

[0081] The antioxidant is preferably added in an amount of at least 0.0025 wt.% of the sulfur-based antioxidant, preferably at least 0.005 wt.%, more preferably at least 0.01 wt.%, and most preferably at least 0.015 wt.% of the composition. The composition preferably comprises 0.0025 to 2%, more preferably 0.005 to 1%, more preferably 0.01 to 0.8%, and in particular 0.015 to 0.5% or 0.015 to 0.1 wt.% of the sulfur-based antioxidant composition.

[0082] Preferably, the composition comprises the sodium or potassium salt of an inorganic, sulfur-based antioxidant; more preferably, it comprises the sodium salt. Preferably, the composition also comprises sodium sulfite. Inorganic peroxide

[0083] Some of the raw materials used as ingredients for the present dishwashing composition may contain small amounts of inorganic peroxides. However, these amounts of peroxides can have a negative effect on the other ingredients of the composition according to the invention. Therefore, it is highly preferred that these (small) amounts of inorganic peroxides degrade within the composition. Therefore, the composition of the invention preferably contains no inorganic peroxide. This means that it contains less than 100 ppm, preferably less than 10 ppm, even more preferably less than 1 ppm or less than 0.1 ppm of any inorganic peroxide. It is particularly preferred that the composition contains no traces of the aforementioned compounds, such that these compounds are present in an amount of 0.00 wt.%.

[0084] Inorganic peroxides include, in particular, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), barium peroxide (BaO2), sodium peroxide (Na2O2), potassium peroxide (K2O2) and calcium peroxide (CaO2).

[0085] The amount of peroxide present in the dishwashing detergent composition is reduced by the presence of the sulfur-based inorganic antioxidant described above. Inorganic salt (iv)

[0086] The dishwashing composition preferably comprises an inorganic salt that is distinct from the sulfur-based inorganic antioxidant. If present, compound (iv) is selected from any inorganic salt having a water solubility of at least 300 g / l or at least 1 mol / l in deionized water at 20 °C; preferably, compound (iv) is selected from sodium chloride, potassium chloride, ammonium chloride, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, sodium sulfate, or a mixture of the aforementioned compounds, with sodium chloride being the most preferred compound (iv).

[0087] The inorganic salt (iv) is preferably present in a weight amount of 1 to 12 wt.% or 2 to 10 wt.%, for example 2.5 to 8 wt.%, preferably 3.5 to 7.5 wt.%, more preferably 4.5 to 7.2 wt.% or 5 to 7 wt.%, and preferably serves to stabilize the dishwashing composition. Alternatively, the inorganic salt can be present in a concentration of 0.1 to 3 mol / l or 0.2 to 2.5 mol / l, for example 0.5 to 2.2 mol / l, preferably 0.8 to 2 mol / l, more preferably 1 to 1.6 mol / l. Monohydric alcohol (v)

[0088] The composition may contain a monohydric alcohol. If present, it may be in an amount of 0.2 to 8 wt%, preferably 1 to 6 wt%, more preferably 1.5 to 5 wt%, and even more preferably 2 to 4 wt%. The alcohol may be selected from methanol, ethanol, propanol, n-butanol, isobutanol, pentanol, or hexanol, preferably including at least ethanol.

[0089] In order to achieve a balanced stabilization and to maintain the activity and dissolution of all components of the dishwashing composition of the present invention, it is preferred to use the salt compound (iv) and the monohydric alcohol (v) in a weight ratio of 10:1 to 1:10 or of 8:1 to 1:8 or of 7:1 to 1:6, or of 6:1 to 1:4, or of 5:1 to 1:2, for example in a range of 5:1 to 1:1, or in a range of 5:1 to 1:0.9.

[0094] The following examples describe embodiments of the invention, which are not to be understood as limiting the invention to the embodiments mentioned.

[0095] A basic composition comprising the following components: (ia) Alkyl ether sulfate 11 % (ia) secondary alkanesulfonate 3,5 (ib) Amine oxide 2,5 (ic) Betaine 11 (ii) Protease / Amylase 0.001-1.5% (as active enzyme protein) (iii) Sodium sulfite 0,005-0,5 % (iv) sodium chloride 0-7% (v) Ethanol 0-7 pH regulator, perfume, dyes < 2 Water ad 100 This was used to investigate the stability of the composition, the stability of the active ingredients, and the balanced system for cleaning performance. Compounds (ii) to (v) were added in varying amounts, as indicated below. All percentages are given as weight percent.

[0096] The surfactants used in these examples and all other ingredients have been tested, selected and / or manufactured to ensure that they contribute less than 0.25 ppm, preferably no inorganic peroxide, to the composition. Example 1: Enzyme stability:

[0097] The amine oxide used in the example compositions was a 30 wt% solution of the active ingredient. For a quantity of 2.5 wt% active amine oxide, 8.3 wt% of the 30 wt% amine oxide solution was dosed.

[0098] In this experiment, two samples of the same amine oxide were used. One sample contained approximately 300 ppm residual hydrogen peroxide (used in compositions 1 and 2), and the other sample contained approximately 480 ppm residual hydrogen peroxide (used in composition 3). These concentrations of residual hydrogen peroxide correspond to amounts of 25 ppm and 40 ppm hydrogen peroxide, respectively, in the final compositions.

[0099] All other ingredients used in the examples were tested, selected and / or manufactured to ensure that they contribute less than 0.25 ppm, preferably no inorganic peroxide, to the composition.

[0100] The basic composition was supplemented with sodium sulfite to obtain the following compositions 1 to 3: Table 1 H2 O2 Sodium sulfite Salt (iv) Ethanol Composition 1 25 ppm - - - Composition 2 25 ppm 0.02 wt. - - Composition 3 40 ppm 0.02 wt. -

[0101] All compositions tested in this experiment contained subtilisin and alpha-amylase. The active subtilisin content in the composition was 0.027 wt%, and the active alpha-amylase content was 0.009 wt%. Each enzyme was added in its commercially available form at a dosage of 0.30 wt%.

[0102] The compositions were made up to 100% by weight with water.

[0103] These three compositions were prepared and stored at 30 °C for several weeks. The activity of subtilisin and alpha-amylase was determined on the day of preparation and after 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks of storage at 30 °C. The respective activity was calculated based on the enzyme activity immediately after preparation of the compositions.

[0104] The following tables show the stability of the enzymes in these compositions. Table 2: Stability of Alpha-Amylase start After 1 week After 2 weeks After 4 weeks After 8 weeks Composition 1 100 33 30 27 23 Composition 2 100 90 83 77 70 Composition 3 100 87 73 63 60 Table 3: Stability of subtilisin Beginn After 1 week After 2 weeks After 4 weeks After 8 weeks Composition 1 100 83 73 70 63 Composition 2 100 100 97 93 93 Composition 3 100 97 93 93 90

[0105] The results show that an inorganic sulfur-based oxidizing agent significantly improves the stability of alpha-amylase and subtilisin in the surfactant-based composition containing traces of inorganic peroxide. Example 2: Storage stability

[0106] During storage of compositions 1 to 3, it was observed that compositions 2 and 3 showed slight precipitation after 4 weeks, which could be dissolved again by gentle swirling.

[0107] To stabilize the composition, sodium chloride and ethanol were added to composition 2 in the amounts specified in Table 4. Table 4 H2 O2 Sodium sulfite Salt (iv) Ethanol Basic composition - - - - Composition 2 25 ppm 0.02 wt.% - - Composition 4 25 ppm 0.02 wt.% 1 wt.% 2.5 wt.% Composition 5 25 ppm 0.02 wt.% 2.5 wt.% 2.5 wt.% Composition 6 25 ppm 0.02 wt.% 5 wt.% 2.5 wt.%

[0108] After 8 weeks of storage, the compositions were examined to determine whether any precipitation was visible. The results are shown in Table 5. Table 5 Look Activity Protease Amylase activity Basic composition Clear solution 92 69 Composition 2 Light precipitation 93 70 Composition 4 Slight cloudiness 92 67 Composition 5 Clear solution 93 68 Composition 6 Clear solution 94 68

[0109] The addition of salt and ethanol led to a stabilization of the composition, so that all ingredients remained dissolved without negatively affecting the activity of the enzymes. Example 3: Color stability

[0110] Compositions 7, 8, and 9 were prepared and were very similar to composition 6. Differences lie in the amounts of sodium sulfite used and in the presence of dye. The dye used in this experiment was a mixture of Acid Violet 43 and Food Blue 5 in a 6:1 ratio, with a total amount of 0.0020 wt% in the compositions. Table 5 H2O2 Sodium sulfite dye Composition 7 25 ppm No positive Composition 8 25 ppm 0.02 wt. positive Composition 9 25 ppm 0.04 wt. positive

[0111] The samples were all the same color at the time the cleaning agents were manufactured. The samples were stored on a windowsill for 12 weeks and then in the dark in a cupboard for another 12 weeks. The temperature during the test was kept stable between 20°C and 25°C.

[0112] After these 24 weeks, color stability was tested by measurement in the L*a*b* color space. These values ​​are listed in Table 6. Table 6 L* a* b* Composition 7 55,86 -20,36 -18,08 Composition 8 47,56 -19,33 -27,50 Composition 9 41,94 -14,50 -37,60

[0113] The values ​​for L*, the black-white axis, show that the presence of sodium sulfite slows down the discoloration towards a higher L* value. The values ​​for b*, the blue-yellow axis, show that the presence of sodium sulfite slows down the discoloration of the blue color.

[0114] The presence of sodium sulfite clearly stabilizes the dyes used in the tested aqueous hand dishwashing composition. Example 4: Model compositions
