Description

Conventional fabric care products, such as fabric softeners or laundry detergents, often include fragrances or perfumes that make treated fabrics or their fibers more aesthetically pleasing to consumers. These fragrances or perfumes are often administered as a liquid, such as in fabric softener, through the wash and / or rinse cycle, or they can be present in solid fabric care products used in the drying cycle, typically incorporated into woven substrates placed in the dryer. Fabric care products containing fragrances must not only smell pleasant, thereby enhancing the perceived value of the product, but also impart a lasting fragrance to the treated fibers or fabrics. A common practice for supplying fragrances is to mix the free fragrances directly into the product (e.g., fabric softener, detergent, or similar). However, there are several drawbacks to this simple approach. For example, fragrances are often volatile, resulting in fragrance loss during manufacturing, storage, and / or use. Additionally, many fragrances are also unstable over extended periods. Another problem is that the amount of fragrance transferred to fabrics or fabric fibers is often minimal, as much of the fragrance is lost or washed away during washing and drying. What is needed, then, are new and improved fabric care compositions and methods for supplying fragrances to and from textiles over extended periods of time.

Fabric care compositions may include one or more fragrances or perfumes. As used herein, the term or expression “fragrance” or “perfume” may be used in common sense to refer to and include any water-soluble or water-insoluble fragrance substance or mixture of substances, including natural fragrances (i.e., obtained by extraction from flowers, herbs, buds, or plants), artificial fragrances (i.e., mixtures of natural oils or constituents of oils), and synthetically produced odoriferous substances or fragrances, or combinations thereof. A fabric care composition may include free fragrances, encapsulated fragrances, or a mixture of both. For example, the fabric care composition may include one or more free fragrances dispersed throughout the composition, such as within the water-soluble solid (e.g., water-soluble film). Alternatively, one or more fragrances may be encapsulated in capsules. For example, the fabric care composition may include capsules containing the fragrances, and these capsules may be dispersed throughout the composition or within its water-soluble solid.

In at least one implementation, the selection of the materials used to form the capsules may be determined at least partially by the surface charge or convenient surface loading of the capsules.For example, the materials used to form the capsules can provide a net cationic or net anionic charge on the outer surfaces of the capsules, which can facilitate the adhesion or attraction of the capsules to the fabric or its fibers. In a preferred implementation, the capsules include urea-formaldehyde capsules, melamine-formaldehyde capsules, or combinations thereof. The precondensed urea-formaldehyde and melamine-formaldehyde capsule shell precursors can be prepared by reacting urea or melamine with formaldehyde where the molar ratio of melamine or urea to formaldehyde is approximately 10:1 to approximately 1:6, preferably approximately 1:2 to approximately 1:5. The methods for forming the melamine-formaldehyde and urea-formaldehyde capsules are provided in U.S. Patent No. 3,516,846 and U.S. Patent No. 6,261,483, and Lee, et al. (2002) J. Microencapsulation 19:559-569, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. In at least one implementation, fragrance-containing capsules can be dispersed within the fabric care composition. For example, the capsules containing the fragrances can be dispersed within the water-hydratable solid or film of the fabric care composition. The capsules can be nanoparticles with a diameter of approximately 10 nm to approximately 100 nm. The capsules can also have a diameter greater than 100 nm. For example, the particle size of the capsules can be greater than 100 nm, greater than 1 pm and less than or equal to 200 pm, less than or equal to 100 pm, less than or equal to 75 pm, less than or equal to 65 pm, less than or equal to 60 pm, less than or equal to 55 pm, less than or equal to 50 pm, less than or equal to 45 pm, or less than or equal to 10 pm.The capsules can have an average particle size of approximately 10 µm to approximately 150 µm.

The method for preparing the fabric care composition may also include pouring the film-forming composition, including the cationic polymers and / or capsules containing the fragrances dispersed therein, onto a releaseable carrier or substrate and drying the film-forming composition to form a solid fabric care composition. In at least one implementation, the film-forming composition, including the cationic polymers and / or capsules containing the fragrances, may be molded as a film or sheet. The substrate may have a surface tension that allows the film-forming composition to be coated or distributed evenly without forming a destructive bond between the film and the substrate. Illustrative substrates may be, or include, but are not limited to, glass, stainless steel, Teflon®, polyethylene-impregnated paper, or similar materials.In at least one implementation, the film-forming composition can be heat-dried. For example, the film-forming composition can be dried in a drying oven, drying terminal, vacuum dryer, hot plate, or any other suitable drying system / equipment that does not adversely affect the components of the fabric care composition. The thickness of the formed film can vary widely. In at least one implementation, the film can be greater than or equal to approximately 10 qm and less than or equal to approximately 60 pm. After pouring the film-forming composition to prepare the fabric care composition as a sheet or film, the fabric care composition film can be molded or cut into separate unit doses or unit doses. As used herein, the term or expression “unit dose” or “unit dose” may refer to a quantity of the fabric care product or fabric care composition suitable for a single use. For example, the quantity of fabric care product or fabric care composition suitable for treating one load of laundry or multiple loads of laundry.In at least one implementation, the unit dose of the fabric care product or fabric care composition thereof may be approximately 1 ga to approximately 25 g per load of laundry. In at least one implementation, the fabric care product or fabric care composition may include a protective barrier top coating configured to increase the relative stability of the film. For example, prior to forming or cutting the film, it may be coated with a protective barrier top coating, such as a food-grade coating or ethylcellulose, to increase the relative stability of the flakes formed from the film. It is acceptable that any protective barrier top coating used is capable of providing, or configured to provide, increased film stability during transport and prior to use. It is also acceptable that the protective barrier top coating may break down or be removed during use; for example, through friction or dissolution during washing.

EXAMPLES The examples and other applications described herein are illustrative and are not intended to limit the description of the full scope of the compositions and methods described herein. Equivalent changes, modifications, and variations of specific applications, materials, compositions, and methods within the scope of this description may be made with substantially similar results. Example 1 The effectiveness of delivering fragrance to washed fabrics or textiles was evaluated using a control film composition (1) and a test film composition (2). Each of the control (1) and test (2) film compositions was prepared with melamine formaldehyde capsules containing or encapsulating a fragrance. The capsules contained the fragrance at approximately 28% by weight based on the total weight of the capsules. The control (1) and test (2) film compositions were prepared by combining the ingredients / components according to Table 1 to create a film-forming composition and then pouring the film-forming composition onto the film or sheets. It should be noted that the control (1) contained relatively more fragrance than the test composition (2). ινΐΛ / a / zuz ι / u ióóuo Table 1 Control (1) and Test (2) Film Compositions INGREDIENT / COMPONENT CONTROL (1) (% by weight) TEST (2) (% by weight) Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (50 mPas) 10.17 9.38 Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (METHOCEL E5®) 33.90 31.25 Melamine-formaldehyde encapsulated fragrance 37.30 34.37 Polyquaternium (e.g., Polyquaternium-7) 0.00 7.81 Propylene glycol 5.08 4.69 Polysorbate 80 1.69 1.56 Starch 10.17 9.38 Excipients 1.69 1.56 Total 100.0 100.0 To evaluate the effectiveness of the fragrance delivery, each of the control (1) and test (2) film compositions was loaded into a respective washing machine with 20 bath towels, 150 grams of a commercial detergent, and three kilograms (kg) of ballast. The control (1) and test (2) film compositions were then subjected to a complete wash cycle and dried online in a controlled laboratory environment. Next, a sensory panel of 20 expert panelists evaluated each of the bath towels. Each panelist assessed each bath towel treated with the control (1) and test (2) film compositions using a standardized methodology and a 1-10 point rating scale. The 1-10 point scale was used to score / evaluate fragrance intensity, where T represented the lowest value (i.e., low or no fragrance) and 10 represented the highest value (i.e., high fragrance). The 1-10 point scale was also used to score / evaluate liking or preference for the fragrance, where Ί represented the lowest value (i.e., no or low preference) and 10 represented the highest value (i.e., high preference). Each bath towel was evaluated before and after hand-rubbing the towels together.The results of the evaluation by the expert sensory panel are summarized in Tables 2 and 3.

The significantly higher fragrance intensity is made even more surprising and unexpected because the test composition contained a relatively smaller amount of encapsulated fragrance than the negative control (34.37 wt% vs. 37.30 wt%), as shown in Table 1. As shown in Table 3, fragrance preference followed similar trends with the fragrance intensity illustrated in Table 2 over the 28 days. Example 2 The control (1) and test (2) film compositions prepared in Example 1 were further evaluated by solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SPME-GC-MS) analysis to assess the release of volatile fragrances. Specifically, 2” x 0.5” pieces of each of the towels washed with each of the control (1) and test (2) film compositions were evaluated by SPME-GC-MS. For the rubbed samples, each 2” x 0.5” piece was rubbed five times before being placed in vials for GC / MS. The towels were tested 28 days after the initial washing, as described above. The specific SPME method used was GC / MS 24 7890B / 5977A (SN # CN15123180 / US1512M418).The SPME-GC-MS analysis parameters are as follows: 100 µm PDMS red fiber, SPME incubation at 50 °C for 10 min; 30:1 splitting ratio; oven: 50 °C (1 min), temperature 5 °C / min, 200 °C for 5 min; 5 °C / min, 220 °C for 1 min; run time 41 min. The SPME analysis results are summarized in Table 4. Table 4 Total area count of Control (1) and Test (2) film compositions by SPME analysis Condition CONTROL (1) TEST (2) Without rubbing 29,187 615,022 Rubbed 642,131 1,946 295 As illustrated in Table 4, the test film composition (2) released more volatile fragrance than the negative control film compositions (1) when towels were rubbed after 28 days. The SPME further supports the longevity of fragrance release from the test film compositions (2), which included the cationic polymer, specifically PQ-7. Example 3 The test film composition (2) prepared in Example 1 was further evaluated against a control liquid composition (3). The control liquid composition (3) included a commercial liquid fabric conditioner, specifically, Suavitel Fresca Primavera. To assess the fragrance delivery effectiveness, each of the test film compositions (2) and the control liquid composition (3) was loaded into a respective washing machine with 20 bath towels, 150 grams of a commercial detergent, and three kilograms (kg) of ballast. The test film composition (2) and the control liquid composition (3) were then subjected to a complete wash cycle and line dried in a controlled laboratory environment. Next, a sensory panel of 20 expert panelists evaluated each of the bath towels. Each panelist assessed each bath towel treated with the test film composition (2) and the control liquid composition (3) using a standardized methodology and a 1–10 point rating scale. The 1–10 point rating scale was used to score / evaluate fragrance intensity and fragrance liking or preference, as described above. The 1–10 point scale was also used to score / evaluate the softness of the towels after treatment with each of the test film compositions (2) and the control liquid composition (3), where 'T' represented the lowest value (i.e., coarse, rough, etc.) and '10' represented the highest value (i.e., softest). The results are summarized in Tables 5–7. Table 5 Fragrance intensity of the test film composition (2) and control liquid composition (3) WITHOUT RUBBING Day TRIAL (2) CONTROL (3) 0 (wet day) 6.4 6.9 1 5.9 5.1 7 4.7 4.4 28 5.4 3.3 RUBBED Day TRIAL (2) CONTROL (3) 1 7.2 5.7 7 7.5 5.6 28 7.0 4.1 As shown in Table 5, the fragrance intensity of the test film compositions (2) was relatively higher than that of the control liquid compositions (3), which used a liquid fabric conditioner, over the 28 days. On day 0, or immediately after washing, the control liquid composition (3) showed a slightly higher or equal fragrance intensity, but thereafter, the test film compositions (2) demonstrated a significantly higher fragrance intensity.

However, during drying, towels treated with the test film compositions (2) exhibited either parity or a significantly higher fragrance preference compared to the control liquid composition (3). The present description has been given with reference to illustrative applications. Although a limited number of applications have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will recognize that it is possible to make changes to these applications without departing from the principles and spirit of the preceding detailed description. It is intended that the present description be construed as including all such modifications and alterations to the extent that they are within the scope of the appended claims or their equivalents.
