Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a cleaning composition for hard surfaces and a method for cleaning hard surfaces. [Background technology]

[0002] In the kitchen, such as inside the sink or countertop used for washing dishes and vegetables, and around the gas range, inorganic dirt mainly composed of silicon or calcium, oily dirt from cooking or dishes, or a combination of these dirts are attached. In particular, dirt that occurs around cooking equipment is mainly oil-derived dirt, and since the heat source is close, the oil is easily degraded and very difficult to remove. Conventionally, powder or liquid cleansers containing abrasives and strong alkaline cleaning agents have been used to remove such dirt. However, although the former has excellent cleaning properties against dirt, there are problems with the labor of scrubbing and the complexity of rinsing and wiping. In addition, the latter has disadvantages such as insufficient cleaning power against inorganic dirt and rough hands due to alkali, and a simpler and safer cleaning method has been desired.

[0003] Patent Document 1 discloses a hard surface treatment composition that uses a polymer having a sulfobetaine group to hydrophilize hydrophobic hard surfaces in bathrooms, kitchens, toilets, etc., thereby imparting antifouling properties. Furthermore, Patent Document 2 discloses an antifouling cleaner composition for hard surfaces that combines a polymer in which vinyl monomers having anionic groups, cationic groups, and nonionic groups are combined in a specific molar ratio and mass ratio with specific suitable compounding agents, thereby also having an effect of preventing adhesion of dirt and is particularly suitable for cleaning and preventing dirt from being attached to bathrooms and kitchen sinks. Patent Document 3 describes a polymerizable composition comprising a monomer unit A having one or more groups selected from an amino group and a quaternary ammonium group in the molecule, and a -SO 2 and a monomer unit B represented by the formula (I)-(N-dimethylformamide), the monomer unit A is contained in an amount of 10 to 99 mol % based on the total monomer units, and the molar ratio of monomer unit B / monomer unit A is 0.01 to 1. Patent Document 4 discloses an article for hard surface treatment comprising a trigger-type spray container and a liquid composition for hard surface treatment contained in the spray container, in which the spray container is capable of spraying the liquid composition for hard surface treatment in the form of a foam, the liquid composition for hard surface treatment containing a polymer having a betaine structure and a specified surfactant, and the sprayed foam has a specific foam volume of 5 ml / g or more.

[0005] In recent years, the number of people, especially young people, who take daily preventive care to prevent kitchen stains from becoming difficult to remove over time is increasing. They are prioritizing the simplification and time-saving of housework, and want to reduce the effort required to maintain cleanliness. To meet these needs, it would be useful to have a product that can easily clean and disinfect with a single operation, while also having an anti-fouling function that makes it easy to remove dirt even if it does get on. In particular, the inside of the sink is the place that most needs cleanliness, but it is also prone to contamination due to the high frequency of contact between dirt and water, so there has been a demand for a product that has a sustained anti-fouling effect and maintains the gloss of the surface. The present invention provides a cleaning composition for hard surfaces that has disinfecting performance, high detergency, and excellent stain resistance and finish, and a method for cleaning hard surfaces. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The present invention relates to a cleaning composition for hard surfaces, which contains (a) an amphoteric surfactant (hereinafter referred to as component (a)), (b) a bactericide (hereinafter referred to as component (b)), (c) a polymer having one or more groups selected from an amino group, a quaternary ammonium group, and a betaine group (hereinafter referred to as component (c)), and water, in which the mass ratio (c) / (b) of the content of component (c) to the content of component (b) exceeds 1.

[0007] The present invention also relates to a method for cleaning a hard surface, which comprises contacting the above-mentioned cleaning composition for hard surfaces with the hard surface. Effect of the Invention

[0126] The weight average molecular weight of Polymer B was measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) under the following conditions.

[0128] <Example 1> Using each component in Table 1, a cleaning composition for hard surfaces shown in Table 1 was prepared and evaluated for the following items. The results are shown in Table 1. Note that the mass % of the blended components in Table 1 are all values ​​based on the active component.

[0129] <Component (a)> Lauryl dimethylamine oxide Lauryl amidopropyl dimethylamine oxide <(b) Component> Benzalkonium chloride (mixture of alkyl groups with 8 to 16 carbon atoms) <(c) component> Polymer A: Diallyldimethylammonium chloride / maleic acid / SO 2 =70:25:5 (molar ratio), copolymer with weight average molecular weight of 30,000 Polymer B: the copolymer obtained in Production Example 2 <(d) component> Alkyl polyglycoside: Alkyl (12-16 carbon atoms) polyglucose (average sugar condensation degree 1-2), product name "AG124", manufactured by Kao Corporation 2-Ethylhexyl glyceryl ether <Other ingredients> Sodium sulfite: manufactured by Shinshu Chemical Co., Ltd. ·Fragrance ·Pigment

[0130] <Method for evaluating sterilization performance> E. coli (NBRC3972) was cultured on SCDLP agar medium (Difco) for one day, and then cultured in SCDLP liquid medium for one day with shaking. After that, it was suspended in physiological saline and incubated for 10 8 ~10 9 The bacterial concentration was adjusted to CFU / mL, and the test bacterial solution was prepared by mixing an equal amount of this with a 3% BSA aqueous solution. 100 μL of the hard surface cleaning composition of Examples 1 to 7 in Table 1 was inoculated with 10 μL of the test bacteria solution and allowed to come into contact with the composition at 25° C. for 5 minutes, after which 10 mL of SCDLP liquid medium was added to inactivate the bacteria. An appropriate amount of SCDLP agar medium was poured into 1 mL of this inactivation solution and allowed to solidify, after which the number of bacteria was counted after 24 hours of incubation at 37° C. This number of bacteria was taken as the “viable bacteria count in the test solution.” In addition, the same procedure was carried out using ion-exchanged water instead of the hard surface cleaner compositions of Examples 1-7 in Table 1 (10 μL of test bacteria solution was inoculated into 100 μL of water, and after contact for 5 minutes, 10 mL of SCDLP liquid medium was added to inactivate), and the result was counted as the "viable bacteria count in blank (water)" and the disinfecting activity value was calculated from the following formula (1). A higher disinfecting activity value means better disinfecting performance. Sterilization activity value = Log (number of viable bacteria in blank (water)) - Log (number of viable bacteria in test liquid) (1) The disinfecting activity values ​​of Examples 1-7 were greater than 2, and thus the compositions had sufficient disinfecting performance. Moreover, the hard surface cleaner compositions of Examples 1-1 to 1-6 contain the same or more components (b) as the hard surface cleaner of Example 1-7, and have the same or more sterilizing performance as that of Example 1-7.

[0131] <Cleanability of oil stains> 10 mg of cooking oil was applied to one side of a stainless steel substrate (manufactured by Engineering Test Services, 10 cm x 10 cm x 1 mm, alkaline-cleaned). The mass of the stainless steel substrate was measured before and after the oil was applied, and the "initial oil mass" was calculated based on the increase in mass of the stainless steel substrate before and after the oil was applied. Using a commercially available trigger-type sprayer (Kao Corporation's Bus Magiclean Air Jet Trigger (Lot. W0262011)), 2 The hard surface cleaning composition in Table 1 was sprayed onto the oil on the SUS substrate with a single discharge amount (about 1 mL) per spray, and immediately afterwards, a kitchen paper was pressed lightly against the SUS substrate and moved back and forth across the SUS substrate 15 times to wipe off the hard surface cleaning composition on the SUS substrate. The "mass of oil remaining on the substrate" was calculated based on the difference between the mass of the SUS substrate before the oil was applied and the mass of the SUS substrate after the hard surface cleaning composition was wiped off. The oil stain removal rate was calculated from the following formula (2) to evaluate the cleaning ability of the hard surface cleaning composition against oil stains. The higher the oil stain removal rate, the better the cleaning ability of the hard surface cleaning composition against oil stains. Oil stain removal rate (%) = [1-(mass of oil remaining on the board) / (initial mass of oil)] x 100 (2)

[0132] <Hard surface gloss (water film retention)> 2 mL of the above hard surface cleaning composition was applied to a SUS substrate (manufactured by Engineering Test Services, 10 cm x 10 cm x 1 mm, alkaline-cleaned), lightly spread with a sponge and left for 1 minute, thereby coating the entire surface of one side of the SUS substrate with the composition. Next, the SUS substrate was held with the surface coated with the hard surface cleaning composition vertical, and the SUS substrate surface was rinsed with 25°C ion-exchanged water (flow rate: 2 mL / sec) for 5 seconds, and the time until the water film formed on the SUS substrate completely disappeared after rinsing was measured. The water film completely disappeared when the water was visually observed to be completely gone. When no water film was formed on the SUS substrate and water droplets were formed, the water film retention time was set to 0 seconds. It can be seen that the formation of a water film on the SUS substrate improves the antifouling properties of the SUS substrate surface. In addition, the formation of a water film on the SUS substrate suppresses the formation of water spots, improving the gloss and finish of the hard surface. Furthermore, it can be said that the longer the water film retention time on the hard surface, the better the gloss, antifouling properties, and finish of the hard surface.
