Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a wiping sheet in which a sheet-like substrate is impregnated with a quaternary ammonium compound having a specific structure, and a hydroxymonocarboxylic acid and its salt. Specifically, the present invention relates to a wiping sheet that suppresses the adsorption of the quaternary ammonium compound to a sheet-like substrate containing cellulose fibers and the evaporation of the impregnating liquid, and has excellent moisturizing properties when used on the skin. [Background technology]
[0002] Recently, coronavirus infections have become a social issue, and hand hygiene has become increasingly important in preventing the spread of infection. Conventionally, lower monohydric alcohols such as ethanol and isopropanol have been used for hand disinfection, and they have the characteristics of being quick-drying, easy to use, inexpensive, and highly effective at disinfecting. On the other hand, there are concerns that patients with alcohol hypersensitivity tend to avoid using them, that the degreasing effect of disinfectants containing lower monohydric alcohols may cause the skin to dry out and lead to rough hands, and that the quick-drying nature of the ethanol component of the formulation may evaporate and reduce its concentration.
[0003] On the other hand, non-alcohol hand sanitizers that do not contain lower monohydric alcohols are easier to use even for patients with alcohol hypersensitivity, there is less risk of hand irritation, and they tend to evaporate less liquid. However, if too much non-alcoholic disinfectant is applied to the hands, it takes time for it to evaporate, and if too little liquid is applied, it may not be applied evenly, which may result in insufficient disinfection. Therefore, the development of wipes made of non-woven fabrics or other materials impregnated with non-alcoholic disinfectants is underway. Wipe sheets make it easy to spread an appropriate amount on the hands and fingers, and make it easy to remove foreign matter from the skin surface.
[0004] An example of a non-alcoholic disinfectant is a hand disinfectant containing a quaternary ammonium compound. Disinfectants are often used by impregnating a sheet-like substrate (hydrophilic sheet-like substrate) containing cellulose-based fibers such as absorbent cotton or gauze, but there is a problem that the disinfectant containing a quaternary ammonium compound, which is a bactericidal component, is adsorbed onto the sheet-like substrate when the hydrophilic sheet-like substrate is impregnated with the disinfectant (Non-Patent Document 1).
[0005] In order to solve the above problem, it has been proposed to add ethanol to a chemical solution containing a quaternary ammonium compound to suppress the amount of the quaternary ammonium compound adsorbed to the sheet-shaped substrate (Patent Document 1). However, with non-alcoholic disinfectants, it is difficult to suppress adsorption, and there is a risk that the bactericidal power will be significantly reduced. Therefore, there has been a demand for an ethanol-free wiping sheet that has excellent moisture retention while suppressing the adsorption of quaternary ammonium compounds to hydrophilic sheet-like substrates and the evaporation of the impregnation liquid.

That is, the wiping sheet of the present invention is as follows.
[0010] [1] A wiping sheet comprising a sheet-like substrate containing cellulose fibers impregnated with a disinfectant composition, the disinfectant composition being (a) 0.005 to 1.0 w / v % of a quaternary ammonium compound having a structure of formula (1), (b) containing 0.005 to 5.0 w / v% of a hydroxymonocarboxylic acid having 2 to 6 carbon atoms and 0.005 to 5.0 w / v% of a salt thereof, The pH is 3.0 to 6.0.

Effect of the Invention
[0011] According to the present invention, there can be provided a wiping sheet comprising a sheet-like substrate containing cellulose-based fibers impregnated with a disinfectant composition, which inhibits adsorption of a quaternary ammonium compound contained in the disinfectant composition to the sheet-like substrate without using a lower monovalent alcohol, and inhibits evaporation of the disinfectant composition as an impregnation liquid, while providing an excellent moisturizing property when used on the skin. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0012] The present invention will now be described in further detail. In this specification, when a preferred numerical range (e.g., content, etc.) is described in stages, each lower limit and upper limit can be combined independently. For example, in the description "preferably 10 to 100, more preferably 20 to 90", "preferably lower limit: 10" and "more preferably upper limit: 90" can be combined to "10 to 90".
[0013] The present invention relates to a wiping sheet comprising a sheet-like substrate containing cellulose-based fibers impregnated with a disinfectant composition, the disinfectant composition comprising: (a) 0.005 to 1.0 w / v % of a quaternary ammonium compound having a structure of formula (1), (b) A wiping sheet containing 0.005 to 5.0 w / v % of a hydroxymonocarboxylic acid having 2 to 6 carbon atoms and 0.005 to 5.0 w / v % of a salt thereof, having a pH of 3.0 to 6.0, and containing no lower monohydric alcohol. [ka] (In formula (1), R is a substituent having 8 to 18 carbon atoms.) The present invention will be described in detail below.
[0014] [Cleaning sheet] The wiping sheet of the present invention is obtained by impregnating a sheet-like substrate containing cellulosic fibers with a disinfectant composition.
[0015] (Disinfectant composition) The disinfectant composition of the present invention contains (a) 0.005 to 1.0 w / v % of a quaternary ammonium compound having a structure of formula (1), (b) 0.005 to 5.0 w / v % of a hydroxymonocarboxylic acid having 2 to 6 carbon atoms and 0.005 to 5.0 w / v % of a salt thereof, has a pH of 3.0 to 6.0, and does not contain a lower monohydric alcohol.
[0016] The disinfectant composition does not contain a monohydric lower alcohol. By not containing a monohydric lower alcohol, the disinfectant composition is less irritating to the skin and is easy to use for users who are sensitive to alcohol. In addition, by not containing a monohydric lower alcohol, the disinfectant composition is prevented from evaporating after the sheet-shaped substrate is impregnated with the disinfectant composition, and the water retention of the wipe sheet can be improved. Here, the monohydric lower alcohol means a monovalent alcohol having 1 to 3 carbon atoms. Incidentally, not containing a monohydric lower alcohol means that a monohydric lower alcohol is not intentionally blended, and for example, a monohydric lower alcohol that may be contained as an unavoidable impurity in the disinfectant composition is acceptable.
[0017] <(a) Quaternary ammonium compounds> The disinfectant composition of the present invention contains a quaternary ammonium compound having a structure of formula (1) (a) (hereinafter also referred to as component (a)). [ka] (In formula (1), R is a substituent having 8 to 18 carbon atoms.)
[0018] In formula (1), R 1 Among the substituents having 8 to 18 carbon atoms, a hydrocarbon group having 8 to 18 carbon atoms, a group having an oxygen atom and having 8 to 18 carbon atoms, and the like are preferred.
[0019] The hydrocarbon group having 8 to 18 carbon atoms is not particularly limited, but is preferably an alkyl group having 8 to 18 carbon atoms.

[0021] Specific examples of the quaternary ammonium compound having the structure of formula (1) include benzalkonium chloride, benzethonium chloride, etc. Among them, benzalkonium chloride is more preferred because it has a wide range of application to the body. The component (a) contained in the disinfectant composition of the present invention may be one type or two or more types in combination. The content of component (a) in the disinfectant composition of the present invention is 0.005 to 1.0 w / v%. If the content of component (a) is less than 0.005 w / v%, it may not be possible to exert a broad bactericidal spectrum. On the other hand, if the content of component (a) is more than 1.0 w / v%, it is not preferable from the viewpoint of cost-effectiveness because a significant improvement in bactericidal power cannot be expected. From the viewpoint of bactericidal effect, the content of the component (a) of the present invention is preferably 0.01 w / v% to 0.5 w / v%, more preferably 0.025 w / v% to 0.25 w / v%, and even more preferably 0.05 w / v% to 0.2 w / v%.

[0025] There is no limitation on the method of adding the hydroxymonocarboxylate having 2 to 6 carbon atoms contained in the disinfectant composition of the present invention. For example, instead of adding sodium lactate directly, lactic acid and sodium hydroxide may be added to form sodium lactate in the disinfectant composition, which can be regarded as adding sodium lactate.
[0026] In the component (b), the content of the hydroxymonocarboxylic acid having 2 to 6 carbon atoms is 0.005 to 5.0 w / v%. If the content is less than 0.005 w / v%, there is a risk that the adsorption of the quaternary ammonium compound to the sheet-like substrate containing cellulose fibers cannot be suppressed. If the content is more than 5.0 w / v%, there is a risk that the skin will become more irritated. In the component (b) of the present invention, the content of the hydroxymonocarboxylic acid having 2 to 6 carbon atoms is preferably 0.01 to 2.0 w / v%, more preferably 0.05 to 0.5 w / v%, in order to suppress the adsorption of the quaternary ammonium compound to the sheet-like substrate containing cellulose fibers. When two or more kinds of hydroxymonocarboxylic acids having 2 to 6 carbon atoms are used, the content of the hydroxymonocarboxylic acid having 2 to 6 carbon atoms means the total amount.

Disinfectant compositions of Comparative Examples 1 to 3 were obtained according to the formulations shown in Table 2. Using each of these disinfectant compositions, the following evaluations were carried out. In each table, "g / 100 mL" is equivalent to "w / v%."

The sheet substrate was stored in a polyethylene packaging device. The sheet substrate was filled with 3.5 g of each of the above disinfectant compositions per 1 g of nonwoven fabric, and impregnated to prepare a wiping sheet. The disinfectant composition of the wiping sheet was squeezed out, and the content of the quaternary ammonium compound in the disinfectant composition before and after the impregnation of the sheet substrate was quantified by high performance liquid chromatography. The residual rate of the quaternary ammonium compound was calculated by the following formula and evaluated according to the following criteria. Residual rate (%) = 100 x [quaternary ammonium content in the disinfectant composition squeezed out from the wipe sheet / quaternary ammonium content in the disinfectant composition before impregnation] [Evaluation Criteria] ◎: Remaining rate of quaternary ammonium compounds is 90% or more 〇: Residual rate of quaternary ammonium compounds is less than 90% and more than 80% △: The remaining rate of quaternary ammonium compounds is less than 80%.
[0063] <Transpiration> As a sheet-like substrate containing cellulosic fibers, a rayon / pulp nonwoven fabric (basis weight = 40 g / m 2) was molded into a rectangle (30 cm x 20 cm) to prepare a sheet substrate. The sheet substrate was stored in a polyethylene packaging device. The sheet substrate was filled with 3.5 g of each of the above disinfectant compositions per 1 g of nonwoven fabric, and impregnated to prepare a cleaning sheet. The cleaning sheet was left at room temperature for 2 hours, and then used on hands and fingers. Four men and women (aged 25 to 35) were used as panelists, and were scored according to the following scoring criteria in a sensory evaluation. The total score of the four evaluation points was calculated and evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria. [Scoring criteria] 2 points: I feel the amount of impregnation liquid is sufficient. 1 point: The amount of impregnation liquid is somewhat sufficient 0 points: The amount of impregnation liquid is slightly insufficient [Evaluation Criteria] ◎: The total score is greater than 6 ○: The total score is 6 or less and greater than 3 △: Total score is 3 or less
[0064] <Moisturizing properties> The disinfectant composition prepared as described above was applied to four male and female panelists (aged 25 to 35 years) five times every hour after washing the forearms with soap, and this was continued for five days. The moisturizing feeling of the skin after five days was scored according to the following scoring criteria in a sensory evaluation. The total score of the four panelists was calculated and evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria. [Scoring criteria] 2 points: Very moisturizing feeling 1 point: Slightly moisturizing feeling 0 points: No moisturizing sensation [Evaluation Criteria] ◎: The total score is greater than 6 ○: The total score is 6 or less and greater than 3 △: Total score is 3 or less

[0066] [Table 2]
[0067] As is clear from the results of the Examples in Table 1, the wiping sheets impregnated with the disinfectant composition satisfying the requirements of the present invention have a high residual rate of quaternary ammonium compounds, which indicates that the adsorption of quaternary ammonium compounds is suppressed. In addition, the results of the transpiration are also good, which indicates that the transpiration of the disinfectant composition is suppressed, and the moisturizing properties are also good. In contrast, as is clear from the results of the comparative examples in Table 2, wiping sheets impregnated with disinfectant compositions that do not satisfy the requirements of the present invention had poor transpiration and moisture retention properties, even when the quaternary ammonium compounds were easily adsorbed or the adsorption of the quaternary ammonium compounds was suppressed.
