[0003] Document EP 2 592 134 B1 describes the use of a washing and cleaning agent in liquid or gel form for hard surfaces made of glass, mirrors, ceramics, plastics, metal or wood, both painted and unpainted, or textiles or fibers; rock or earth, in the household, industrial, commercial and institutional sectors, ships, port, sports and leisure facilities, oil and mining, particularly preferably in the household and commercial sectors; containing one or more surfactants selected from the groups comprising: a) alkali or ammonium salts of fatty acids with the general formula R(O)OM, where M is an alkali metal cation or ammonium; b) fatty acid esters with the general formula R(O)OR'; c) ethers of fatty alcohols with the general formula ROR'; d) fatty acid amides with the general formula R(O)NR'; e) fatty acid imines of the general formula R(NR')NR"R"'; f) secondary, tertiary, or quaternary fatty amines or fatty ammonium salts of the general formulas RNHR'.RNR'R" and (R)(R')(R")(R"')N+X-, g) and mixtures thereof, wherein i) R' to R'" represent organic or inorganic hydrophilic residues and X- represents an anion; ii) R represents the lipophilic part of the surfactant and consists of a linear, branched or unbranched, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon chain with 8 to 24 carbon atoms, and the proportion of hydrocarbon chains with 18 or more carbon atoms exceeds 60 wt.%, based on the total hydrocarbon chain content R of the surfactants contained in the detergent and cleaning agent; and the proportion of unsaturated hydrocarbon chains R is between 50-100 wt.%, based on the total hydrocarbon chain content R of the surfactants contained in the detergent and cleaning agent; and one or more surfactants selected from a)-g) based on plant-derived raw materials are included; and wherein 80-100 wt. % of the surfactants are based on vegetable oils, waxes, fats or resins from the temperate zone,Selected from the group of plants including: amaranth, anise, apple, apricot, arnica, avocado, cotton, borage, broccoli, hemp, hazelnut, beech, boxwood, thistle, spelt, peanut, tiger nut, lilac, garden cress, barley, pomegranate, oat, blueberry, elderberry, jasmine, currant, St. John's wort, jojoba, camellia, chamomile, cherry, caraway, carrot, coriander, mullein, crambe, cypress spurge, pumpkin, Iberian dragonhead, lavender, camelina, flaxseed, privet, lupin, alfalfa, corn, almond, mirabelle plum, mango, poppy, evening primrose, olive, oilseed radish, oilseed rocket, pecan, peach, plum, pistachio, cranberry, rapeseed, rice, calendula, turnip rape, safflower, sage, sea buckthorn, black cumin, sesame Sesame leaf, mustard, sunflower, soy, tobacco, walnut, grape, wheat, meadowsweet and wild rose,as well as their combinations based on the total content of surfactants contained in the washing and cleaning agent; and wherein one or more surfactants selected from a)-g) are based on a mixture of hydrocarbon chains R of different chain lengths and degrees of saturation corresponding to their occurrence in natural vegetable oil according to the list above, and wherein at least one surfactant selected from a) to g) is included which is not a soap.

[0004] Document PL 206 552 B1 discloses a washing agent for machines and engines, characterized in that it contains an aqueous solution of fatty acid methyl ester oxyethylates obtained by direct oxyethylation of fatty acid methyl esters from rapeseed oil with a chain length of C16-C20 and a concentration of 15-55 cg / g.

[0005] The book “Natural Soap - Pure Pleasure” by the author “Claudia Kasper”, ISBN: 978-3-902540-10-2, published in 2007 by Freya Verlag, reveals on pages 57 to 60 the production of a “soft soap from 1 kg of rapeseed oil” and its use for cleaning.

[0006] In total, a large number of soaps made from vegetable oils of the temperate zone are known to those skilled in the art in the field of the present invention.

[0007] Document WO 2023 / 052616 A1 discloses specified sugar amides and mixtures thereof.

[0008] In the field of the present invention, there is a need for detergents that are made wholly or partially from plant-based raw materials from temperate zones and that exhibit advantageously good cleaning performance. The cleaning performance of corresponding agents known from the prior art is considered insufficient in the field of the present invention.

[0009] Detergents that are wholly or partially derived from plant-based raw materials from temperate zones and exhibit advantageously good cleaning properties are often perceived as particularly beneficial by consumers in the field of the present invention and are in high demand. Therefore, there is a particularly high need for the supply of such detergents. Specifically, there is a need for detergents with advantageously good cleaning properties and the highest possible proportion of surfactants whose hydrophobic molecular component is derived from plant-based raw materials from temperate zones. There is also a need for detergents with advantageously good cleaning properties and the highest possible proportion of surfactants whose hydrophilic molecular component is derived from plant-based raw materials from temperate zones.There is a particular need for detergents with a beneficially good cleaning effect and with the highest possible proportion of surfactants that are made entirely from plant-based raw materials from the temperate zone.

[0010] In the field of the present invention, the use of detergents containing surfactants derived from plant-based raw materials obtained from the oil palm (including oil palm fruit) is often considered problematic. Similarly, in the field of the present invention, the use of detergents containing surfactants derived from plant-based raw materials obtained from the coconut palm (including coconut palm fruit) is often considered problematic. Therefore, there is a need for detergents with the lowest possible proportion of surfactants derived from plant-based raw materials obtained from the oil palm (including oil palm fruit) and also the lowest possible proportion of surfactants derived from plant-based raw materials obtained from the coconut palm (including coconut palm fruit).There is a need for detergents whose surfactant compounds have a composition that differs from surfactant compounds known from general technical knowledge and produced from oil palm and / or coconut palm. The use of surfactant compounds based on oil palm and / or coconut palm is increasingly common and is being strongly rejected in the field of the present invention.

[0011] In the field of the present invention, there is a need for detergents that are produced with the lowest possible overall environmental impact. Specifically, there is a need for detergents produced with the most favorable carbon footprint possible. Therefore, in temperate zones, there is a need for detergents containing surfactants produced from plant-based raw materials from temperate zones, particularly because this is associated with advantageously short transport routes and often advantageously low carbon emissions. In the field of the present invention, there is a need for detergents whose use and subsequent degradation are associated with the lowest possible overall environmental impact.Avoiding the release of surfactants after use in a cleaning task is often not preferred, as it involves an undesirably high level of equipment effort, which is often considered extremely disadvantageous in the field of the present invention.

[0012] In the field of the present invention, there is a need for detergents that can be added using the additives customary in the field of the present invention.

[0013] In the field of the present invention, there is a need for detergents that can be used by the respective consumer in the manner customary for the respective consumer, without requiring any disadvantageous changes in use compared to detergents known to the consumer. For example, in the field of the present invention, consumers regularly prefer to work at the usual temperatures and with the usual contact times.

[0014] The use of biocides is undesirable in many cases in the field of the present invention due to the associated disadvantages for the environment. Therefore, there is a need in the field of the present invention for detergents that do not contain added biocides.

[0015] In many cases, in the field of the present invention, there is a need for a uniform formulation concept for detergents, with which detergents can be produced for as many different uses and / or application areas as possible.

[0016] In the field of the present invention, there is a need for detergents that can be produced using a manufacturing process that is carried out with an advantageously low time expenditure and / or with an advantageously low energy requirement.

[0017] In the field of the present invention, there is a need for detergents that, after release into the environment, are degraded by environmental organisms with advantageously few negative effects on the environment. In the field of the present invention, there is a need for detergents that are advantageously well compatible with packaging made from renewable raw materials and / or packaging made from recycled materials.

[0018] In the field of the present invention, there is a particular need for detergents that fulfill as many of the aforementioned needs as possible and / or solve as many of the aforementioned problems as possible, while also exhibiting advantageously good cleaning performance.

[0019] Furthermore, in the field of the present invention there is a need for detergents that fulfill as many of the aforementioned needs as possible and / or solve as many of the aforementioned problems as possible, and can be produced without disadvantageously expensive conversion of production facilities that are set up for the production of detergents from the prior art.

[0020] The invention is defined in the appended claims. Preferred aspects of the present invention will also become apparent from the following description, including the examples. Where specific embodiments are designated as preferred for an aspect of the invention (detergent, method for producing a detergent, method for treating, preferably cleaning, a surface with a detergent, use of a method for producing a detergent, use of a method for treating, preferably cleaning, a surface, use of a detergent for treating, preferably cleaning, a more specifically identified surface, kit, use of a kit for producing a detergent, use of a kit for cleaning a surface, use of a kit in a method for producing a detergent), the corresponding embodiments shall also apply, mutatis mutandis, to the other aspects of the present invention.Preferred individual features of aspects of the invention (as defined in the claims and / or disclosed in the description) can be combined with each other and are preferably combined with each other, unless otherwise apparent to the person skilled in the art from the present text in the individual case.

[0021] Likewise, the disadvantages of the prior art mentioned above also apply to the other aspects of the present invention; the considerations set forth above regarding various problems apply accordingly. The primary problem of the present invention, as well as related further problems, are solved by a detergent comprising a total amount of one or more surfactant compounds, each independently selected from the group consisting of: i) salts of fatty acids with the general formula RC(O)OM, where M is an alkali metal cation, an ammonium ion, or a profaned primary, secondary, or tertiary amine compound; ii) fatty acid esters with the general formula RC(O)OR 1 iii) Ethers of fatty alcohols with the general formula

[0022] R-CH2-OR 1 iv) Fatty acid amides with the general formula

[0023] RC(O)NR 1 R 2; each independently of the other

[0024] R is a saturated or unsaturated, branched or unbranched, aliphatic hydrocarbon residue with a total of 7 to 23 carbon atoms, forming one or the hydrophobic part of the respective surfactant compound, and wherein the total mass of the residues R of the surfactant compounds present in the detergent is one of the several surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv) a proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with a total of 17 to 23 carbon atoms in the range of 14 wt.% to 59 wt.% and a proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with a total of

[0025] comprising 7 to 10 carbon atoms, preferably 7 to 9 carbon atoms, of more than 30 wt.% and wherein R 1 and / or R 2 Residues are those that form or comprise a hydrophilic molecular component of the respective surfactant.

[0026] Surprisingly, it has been shown that a detergent (as described above, preferably as referred to above as preferred) comprising a proportion of long-chain surfactants, such as those advantageously produced simply from plant-based raw materials of the temperate zone, in combination with a proportion of short-chain surfactants, such as those also produced from plant-based raw materials of the temperate zone by suitable chemical processes, solves the stated problems in a particularly positive manner and / or in a particularly positive combination within the range defined above, and avoids the problems known from the prior art in a particularly positive manner. The detergent according to the invention provides advantageously good washing and / or cleaning performance, and is advantageously produced simply from plant-based raw materials of the temperate zone.

[0027] The fact that the R group forms a hydrophobic part of the respective surfactant compound means that the corresponding surfactant compound contains other hydrophobic parts besides R. The fact that the R group forms the hydrophobic part of the respective surfactant compound means that R completely constitutes the hydrophobic part of the surfactant.

[0028] The terms “hydrophilic part” and “hydrophobic part” are known in the field of surfactant compounds from general technical knowledge; the person skilled in the art assigns the corresponding molecular parts in a unique way based on their general technical knowledge.

[0029] The term "detergent" in this text has the meaning defined in Regulation (EC) No 648 / 2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 31 March 2004 on detergents (Text with EEA relevance) (OJ L 104, 8.4.2004, p. 1). Within the context of the present invention, the term "detergent" therefore also encompasses the terms "washing agent" and "cleaning agent" (including cosmetic cleaning agents). Other terms used in this text also have the same meaning as in the aforementioned Regulation, unless the specific context indicates otherwise.

[0030] The term "surfactant compounds" (surfactants) describes a substance whose chemical structure is characterized by a nonpolar (hydrophobic) and a polar (hydrophilic) molecular part. This amphiphilic molecular structure of a surfactant compound results in a certain degree of solubility in both hydrophilic and hydrophobic liquids. Furthermore, this structure gives rise to the surface activity characteristic of surfactants. Through their surface activity, surfactants reduce surface tension, thereby promoting the wetting of surfaces (for example, the wetting of a surface to be cleaned and / or the wetting of contaminants by water) and improving the miscibility (emulsification) of two liquids (compared to the miscibility of these liquids in the absence of the surfactant compound).Surfactant compounds are known from the prior art, and a person skilled in the art can determine from their general technical knowledge and / or the prior art whether a substance is a surfactant compound or not. In particular, a multitude of surfactant compounds from the surfactant classes of anionic surfactants, nonionic surfactants, cationic surfactants, and amphoteric surfactants are known to the person skilled in the art.

[0031] In the production of surfactants made from plant-based raw materials, preferably from plant-based raw materials of temperate zones, and particularly preferably from vegetable oils of temperate zones, the manufacturing process often results in mixtures of surfactant compounds. This is frequently due, for example, to the fact that plant-based raw materials, especially vegetable oils, regularly contain fatty acids with varying chain lengths and degrees of saturation, and this pattern is partially retained during the production of surfactants.

[0032] For example, PEG-4 rapeseedamide (CAS number: 85536-23-8) is produced from rapeseed oil and is a mixture of surfactant compounds (because the various fatty acid residues present in rapeseed oil are also found wholly or partially in PEG-4 rapeseedamide), each selected from group iv). Thus, PEG-4 rapeseedamide contains several surfactant compounds. Within the scope of the present invention, it is preferred if the detergent (as described above, preferably as referred to above as preferred) comprises several surfactant compounds from a common subgroup i) to iv). In many cases, it is therefore preferred that the detergent (as described above, preferably as referred to above as preferred) comprises mixtures of surfactant compounds such as those resulting from the production of surfactants from vegetable oils.The CAS number, short for Chemical Abstracts Service number, is an internationally valid identification system for chemical substances. Every known chemical compound, as well as biosequences, alloys, and polymers, is assigned a specific CAS number that uniquely identifies the substance.

[0033] In many cases, a detergent (as described above, preferably as referred to above as preferred) is preferred, comprising a total amount of one or more surfactant compounds, each independently selected from the group consisting of: i) salts of fatty acids with the general formula RC(O)OM, where M is an alkali metal cation, an ammonium ion, or a profaned primary, secondary, or tertiary amine compound; ii) fatty acid esters with the general formula RC(O)OR 1 iii) Ethers of fatty alcohols with the general formula

[0034] R-CH2-OR 1iv) Fatty acid amides with the general formula

[0035] RC(O)NR 1 R 2 ; each independently of the other

[0036] R is a saturated or unsaturated, branched or unbranched, aliphatic hydrocarbon residue with a total of 7 to 23 carbon atoms, forming one or the hydrophobic part of the respective surfactant compound, and wherein the total mass of the residues R of the one or more surfactant compounds present in the detergent selected from i) to iv) comprises a proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with a total of 17 to 23 C atoms in the range of 14 wt.% to 59 wt.% and a proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with a total of 7 to 10 C atoms of over 30 wt.%, and wherein R 1 and / or R 2 Residues are those that form or comprise a hydrophilic molecular portion of the respective surfactant, and wherein preferably the residues R 1 and / or R 2open-chain residues are or the residue R 1 an open-chain residue and R 2 Hydrogen is.

[0037] The effects and advantages described above in connection with the detergent according to the invention are realized here in a particularly advantageous way.

[0038] In many cases, a detergent (as described above, preferably as referred to above as preferred) is preferred, comprising a total amount of one, two, three, or more surfactant compounds, each independently selected from the group consisting of: i) salts of fatty acids with the general formula RC(O)OM, where M is an alkali metal cation, an ammonium ion, or a profaned primary, secondary, or tertiary amine compound; ii) fatty acid esters with the general formula RC(O)OR 1 iii) Ethers of fatty alcohols with the general formula

[0039] R-CH2-OR 1iv) Fatty acid amides with the general formula RC(O)NR 1 R 2 ; each independently of the other

[0040] R is a saturated or unsaturated, branched or unbranched, aliphatic hydrocarbon residue with a total of 7 to 23 carbon atoms, forming one or the hydrophobic part of the respective surfactant compound, and wherein the total mass of the residues R of the one or more surfactant compounds present in the detergent selected from i) to iv) comprises a proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with a total of 17 to 23 carbon atoms in the range of 14 wt.% to 59 wt.% and a proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with a total of

[0041] comprises 7 to 10 carbon atoms of over 30 wt.% and wherein R 1 and / or R 2Residues are those that form or comprise a hydrophilic molecular portion of the respective surfactant and wherein, preferably for surfactant compounds, selected from: iv) fatty acid amides with the general formula RC(O)NR 1 R 2 , applies:

[0042] - the remains R 1 and / or R 2 are open-chain residues or the residue R 1 is an open-chain residue and R 2 is hydrogen. The effects and advantages described above in connection with the detergent according to the invention are realized here in a particularly advantageous manner.

[0043] That preferably for surfactant compounds selected from: iv) fatty acid amides with the general formula RC(O)NR 1 R 2 , the following applies: the remainders R 1 and / or R 2 are open-chain residues or the residue R 1 is an open-chain residue and R 2The hydrogen content applies to all fatty acid amides in the detergent, provided that fatty acid amides are present in the detergent.

[0044] In many cases, a detergent (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above) is preferred, wherein R is a hydrocarbon residue having 7 to 23 carbon atoms, and wherein R is selected from:

[0045] - linear hydrocarbon residue,

[0046] - branched hydrocarbon residue,

[0047] - monounsaturated hydrocarbon residue,

[0048] - doubly unsaturated hydrocarbon residue,

[0049] - triple unsaturated hydrocarbon residue,

[0050] - saturated hydrocarbon residue and

[0051] - possible combinations thereof.

[0052] In accordance with the usual understanding of those skilled in the art, within the scope of the present invention, the term "hydrocarbon residue" is understood to mean an organic residue consisting exclusively of carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms. R denotes a hydrocarbon residue and therefore, within the scope of the present invention, consists exclusively of carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms. Unless otherwise specified in a particular case, the term "hydrocarbon residue" within the scope of the present invention includes saturated hydrocarbon residues, monounsaturated hydrocarbon residues, polyunsaturated hydrocarbon residues, linear hydrocarbon residues, and branched hydrocarbon residues, as well as possible combinations thereof.

[0053] Alkali salts of fatty acids with the general formula RC(O)OM, where M is an alkali metal cation (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above) are known to those skilled in the art as soaps.

[0054] In the case of ammonium salts of fatty acids with the general formula RC(O)OM, wherein M is a profaned ammonia or a profaned primary, secondary or tertiary amine compound (as described above, preferably as referred to above as preferred), the following profaned primary, secondary or tertiary amine compounds are preferred within the scope of the present invention: profaned monoethanolamine (profaned MEA), profaned diethanolamine (profaned DEA), profaned triethanolamine (profaned TEA), profaned methyldiethanolamine (profaned MDEA), and profaned diisopropanolamine (profaned DIPA).

[0083] Fatty acid amides with the general formula RC(O)NR 1 R 2 (as described above, preferably as referred to above as preferred) are known to the person skilled in the art.

[0084] Preferred fatty acid amides (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above) are, in many cases within the scope of the present invention:

[0085] Fatty acid amide alkoxylates (EO, EO / PO),

[0086] N-Acyl-N-Alkyl-Glucamine,

[0087] Alkyl-amidopropyl betaine,

[0088] Alkyl-amidopropyl-N-oxide,

[0089] Amphoacetate,

[0090] Ammphodiacetate and

[0091] N-acyl amino acids. Compounds defined by the designation "N-acyl-N-alkyl-glucamines" are also known to those skilled in the art in the field of the present invention under the designation "glucamides".

[0092] With a detergent (as described above, preferably as referred to above as preferred) having a proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with 17 to 23 carbon atoms in the range of 14% to 59% and a proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with a combined total of 7 to 10 carbon atoms, preferably 7 to 9 carbon atoms, of over 30%, particularly advantageous cleaning results are achieved and at the same time many of the aforementioned requirements are met. Surprisingly, it has been possible to provide a detergent whose surfactants can be produced to an advantageously high proportion, preferably completely, from plant raw materials from plants of the temperate zone, and which at the same time exhibits better cleaning performance than is known from corresponding agents in the prior art.

[0093] Within the scope of the present invention, and in accordance with general technical knowledge, the term "open-chain" refers to residues consisting of a number of covalently bonded atoms, wherein the residues are non-cyclic and do not include any cyclic components. It is known to those skilled in the art that the term "open-chain" is used synonymously with the term "acyclic"—less commonly also "non-cyclic"—in general technical knowledge.

[0094] A detergent (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above) is preferred, wherein the total mass of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv) comprises a proportion of surfactant compounds with unsaturated hydrocarbon residues R of more than 6.5 wt.%, preferably more than 10 wt.%, particularly preferably more than 20 wt.%, and most preferably more than 30 wt.%; and / or, in many cases preferably, wherein the total mass of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv) with a hydrocarbon residue R having a total of 17 to 23 carbon atoms comprises a proportion of surfactant compounds with unsaturated hydrocarbon residues R of more than 50 wt.%, preferably more than 60 wt.%, and particularly preferably more than 70 wt.%.-%; and / or, in many cases preferably “and”, wherein the total mass of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv) comprises a proportion of surfactant compounds with hydrocarbon residues R of a total number of 7 to 10 C atoms, preferably 7 to 9 C atoms, of more than 30 wt.%, preferably more than 32 wt.%, particularly preferably more than 35 wt.%, most preferably more than 38 wt.%.

[0095] In many cases, a detergent (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above) is preferred, wherein the total mass of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv) comprises a proportion of surfactant compounds with unsaturated hydrocarbon residues R of more than 6.5 wt.%, preferably more than 10 wt.%, particularly preferably more than 20 wt.%, and most preferably more than 30 wt.%. This means that all the compounds selected from i) to iv) present in the detergent, considered together, have a proportion of unsaturated hydrocarbon residues R in the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R present in the detergent (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above) in the aforementioned ranges.

[0096] The corresponding surfactant compounds are regularly produced from plant-based raw materials from temperate zones, preferably from vegetable oils from temperate zones, in a particularly advantageous and simple manner. Since the corresponding vegetable oils have a correspondingly high proportion of unsaturated hydrocarbon chains, hardening (saturating the double bonds present in the vegetable oil with hydrogen) is generally unnecessary and, in many cases, also undesirable within the scope of the present invention. Vegetable oils from temperate zones are regularly used as the plant-based raw materials in the production of surfactant compounds from plant-based raw materials from temperate zones.

[0097] In many cases, a refined vegetable oil is preferably used in the production of surfactant compounds. However, in other cases, depending on the specific requirements (for example, if the production of the surfactant compounds is to be carried out in a particularly advantageous and simple manner and at the same time no high odor requirements are placed on the detergent), it is also preferable to use an unrefined vegetable oil for the production of the surfactant compounds.

[0098] A detergent (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above) is preferred, wherein the total mass of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv) present in the detergent, having a hydrocarbon residue R with a total of 17 to 23 carbon atoms, comprises a proportion of surfactant compounds with unsaturated hydrocarbon residues R of more than 50 wt.%, preferably more than 60 wt.%, and particularly preferably more than 70 wt.%.

[0349] Our own experiments have shown: Detergents comprising surfactant compounds in which the R residues 1 and / or R 2 open-chain residues are or

[0350] R 1 an open-chain residue and R 2 The presence of hydrogen in the detergent according to the invention often leads to the realization of particularly advantageous combinations of properties. In particular, improved water solubility (compared to closed-chain R groups) is frequently observed. 1 and / or R 2 ) and more advantageous HLB values ​​(compared with closed-chain residues R) 1 and / or R 2 ) on. This applies in particular to compounds selected from: iv) fatty acid amides with the general formula RC(O)NR 1 R 2 .

[0351] Detergents comprising surfactant compounds with the hydrophilic residues R defined above 1 and / or R 2 , in many cases lead to particularly advantageous cleaning and / or washing results with the detergent according to the invention.

[0352] A detergent (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above) is preferred, wherein the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv) comprises a proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with a total number of 15 C atoms of at least 0.7 wt.%, preferably in the range of 0.8 wt.% to 15 wt.%, particularly preferably in the range of 1 wt.% to 10 wt.%, and most preferably in the range of 1.2 wt.% to 9 wt.%, in each case based on the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv);and / or, preferably “and” wherein the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv) comprises a proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with 17 to 23 C atoms in the range of 14 wt.% to 59 wt.%, preferably in the range of 17 wt.% to 59 wt.%, particularly preferably in the range of 20 wt.% to 59 wt.%, most preferably in the range of 25 wt.% to 59 wt.%, in each case based on the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv);and / or, preferably “and wherein in the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv) the ratio of the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R with a total number of 11 to 13 C atoms to the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R with a total number of 7 to 10 C atoms is in the range of 0 to 0.1, preferably in the range of 0 to 0.05, particularly preferably in the range of 0 to 0.03; and / or, preferably “and” wherein in the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv) the ratio of the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R with a total number of 7 to 10 C atoms to the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R with a total number of 17 to 23 C atoms is in the range of 0.52 to 6, preferably in the range of 0.53 to;

[0353] 5, particularly preferably in the range of 0.54 to 4; and / or, preferably “and” wherein in the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv) the ratio of the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R with a total number of 15 C atoms to the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R with a

[0354] The total number of 17 to 23 carbon atoms is in the range of 0.03 to 0.3, preferably in the range of 0.04 to 0.24, particularly preferably in the range of 0.05 to 0.18.

[0355] A detergent (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above) is preferred, wherein the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv) comprises a proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with a total number of 15 C atoms of at least 0.7 wt.%, preferably in the range of 0.8 wt.% to 15 wt.%, particularly preferably in the range of 1 wt.% to 10 wt.%, and most preferably in the range of 1.2 wt.% to 9 wt.%, in each case based on the total mass of the residues R of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv).

[0356] Surprisingly, it has been found that a detergent with a corresponding proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with a total of 15 carbon atoms exhibits particularly advantageous washing and / or cleaning properties. Furthermore, a corresponding proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with a total of 15 carbon atoms is found in many natural vegetable oils of temperate zones. The production of surfactant compounds from these temperate vegetable oils is particularly easy in many cases when a corresponding proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with a total of 15 carbon atoms is desired, as is preferred in many cases within the scope of the present invention.

[0357] A detergent (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above) is preferred, wherein the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv) comprises a proportion of hydrocarbon residues R with a total number of 17 to 23 C atoms in the range of 14 wt.% to 59 wt.%, preferably in the range of 17 wt.% to 59 wt.%, particularly preferably in the range of 20 wt.% to 59 wt.%, and most preferably in the range of 25 wt.% to 59 wt.%, in each case based on the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R of the one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv).

[0358] A detergent according to the invention with a corresponding mass fraction of hydrocarbon residues R with a total number of 17 to 23 C atoms of the surfactant compounds present therein selected from i) to iv) is in many cases particularly preferred, since such a detergent (as described above, preferably as referred to above as preferred) has particularly advantageous cleaning properties and / or washing properties.

[0359] A detergent (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above) is preferred, wherein in the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R of one or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv), the ratio of the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R with a total number of 11 to 13 C atoms to the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R with 7 to 10 C atoms, preferably 7 to 9 C atoms, is in the range of 0 to 0.1, preferably in the range of 0.0001 to 0.05, particularly preferably in the range of 0.001 to 0.03.

[0360] Higher proportions of hydrocarbon residues R with a total of 11 to 13 carbon atoms are associated by consumers in the field of the present invention with the use of surfactants based on tropical plants (for example, based on palm oil and / or coconut oil) and are perceived as disadvantageous in the field of the present invention. The detergent according to the invention preferably does not contain higher proportions of hydrocarbon residues R with a total of 11 to 13 carbon atoms, yet still achieves highly satisfactory cleaning performance.

[0361] A detergent is preferred (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above), wherein the ratio of the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R with a total number of 7 to 10 C atoms, preferably 7 to 9 C atoms, to the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R with a total number of 17 to 23 C atoms is in the range of 0.52 to 6, preferably in the range of 0.53 to 5, particularly preferably in the range of 0.54 to 4;

[0362] In this way, in many cases a detergent with particularly advantageous cleaning and / or washing properties is obtained.

[0363] A detergent is preferred (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above), wherein the ratio of the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R with a total number of 15 C atoms to the total mass of the hydrocarbon residues R with a total number of 17 to 23 C atoms is in the range of 0.03 to 0.3, preferably in the range of 0.04 to 0.24, and particularly preferably in the range of 0.05 to 0.18.

[0364] In this way, in many cases a detergent with particularly advantageous cleaning and / or washing properties is obtained, whereby the surfactants contained therein are produced in a particularly advantageously simple way from vegetable oils of the temperate zone.

[0365] A detergent is preferred (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above), wherein the detergent comprises one, two or more surfactant compounds selected from i) to iv), the hydrocarbon residues R of which have a ratio of 14 carbon atoms to 12 exhibits C atoms corresponding to an age of the corresponding hydrocarbon residues R of less than 300 years since carbon dioxide fixation; and wherein preferably the proportion of these surfactant compounds to the total mass of the surfactant compounds contained in the detergent is in the range of 80 wt.% to 100 wt.%, more preferably in the range of 85 wt.% to 100 wt.%, more preferably in the range of 90 wt.% to 100 wt.%; and / or, more preferably, wherein surfactant compounds from at least one of groups i) to iv) are present, each with at least two different chain lengths of the hydrocarbon chains R.

[0366] In many cases, a detergent is also preferred (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above), wherein surfactant compounds with at least three different chain lengths of the hydrocarbon chains R are present from at least one of the groups i) to iv).

[0367] The radiocarbon method, and thus a method leading to unambiguous results for determining the ratio of 14 carbon atoms to 12 The ratio of carbon atoms in hydrocarbon residues, corresponding to an age of the respective hydrocarbon residues of less than 300 years (with a standard deviation of less than 50 years) since carbon dioxide fixation, is known to those skilled in the art from their general knowledge. Methods for calibrating corresponding measurements are also known to those skilled in the art. A ratio of 14 carbon atoms to 12C atoms, which corresponds to an age of the corresponding hydrocarbon residues of less than 300 years (with a standard deviation of less than 50 years) since carbon dioxide fixation, is characteristic of surfactants produced from renewable raw materials and excludes the possibility that the surfactant under investigation is a surfactant from a purely petrochemical (fossil) source.

[0368] A corresponding ratio of 14 carbon atoms to 12 C atoms, which corresponds to an age of the corresponding carbon atoms of less than 300 years (with a standard deviation of less than 50 years) since carbon dioxide fixation, is understood by the consumer in the field of the present invention as a crucial indication of a detergent with a proportion of surfactant compounds based on renewable raw materials, preferably plant-based raw materials.

[0369] A correspondingly high proportion of 80 wt.% to 100 wt.% of such surfactant compounds is therefore particularly preferred in many cases within the scope of the present invention.

[0370] The presence of surfactant compounds with at least two, preferably at least three, different chain lengths of the hydrocarbon chains R is also understood in the field of the present invention as an indication of origin from vegetable oil. It is particularly preferred if, in addition, proportions of unsaturated hydrocarbon residues R are present (as described above, preferably as referred to above as preferred), which indicate origin from a vegetable oil; this is perceived as particularly positive in many cases in the field of the present invention.

[0371] In many cases, it is preferred that at least two, preferably at least three, different chain lengths of the hydrocarbon chains R are present, as they occur in the oil of a plant selected from the group of plants consisting of: hemp, hazelnut, thistle, peanut, tiger nut, jojoba, Iberian dragonhead, coconut palm, camelina, flax, almond, poppy, evening primrose, olive, oil palm, oil radish, oil rocket, pecan, pistachio, rapeseed, castor, turnip, safflower, black cumin, sesame, sunflower, soy, walnut, grape and combinations thereof.

[0372] A detergent is preferred (as described above, preferably as referred to above as preferred), wherein the detergent comprises at least one surfactant compound selected from i) to iv) which is not a soap; and / or wherein the detergent

[0373] - comprises a monoglyceride; or

[0374] - is free of monoglycerides.

[0375] In many cases, preferably when the detergent is intended for use with hard water (from about 10° dH), it is preferred if the detergent comprises at least one surfactant compound selected from i) to iv) which is not a soap.

[0376] At water hardness levels above approximately 10° dH, the carboxyl group of soaps is regularly blocked by calcium and / or magnesium ions, forming insoluble lime soaps that have little or no washing power. This is generally highly undesirable in the field of the present invention. In many cases, soaps alone are not the preferred surfactant compound with regard to the washing results achievable with the detergent.

[0377] Soaps produced using simple saponification processes with vegetable oils from temperate zones contain monoglycerides. In many cases, particularly when soaps made from vegetable oils of temperate zones are used, it is preferable for the detergent to additionally comprise monoglycerides. In the field of the present invention, this is often understood as an indication that the soap was produced from the vegetable oil in a particularly advantageous and environmentally friendly manner and is therefore preferred. Such a soap is also preferred in many cases because it can be produced from vegetable oils of temperate zones with advantageously little effort in separating the components of the natural vegetable oil and / or the byproducts of the saponification process from the finished soap.

[0378] In many cases, particularly when the detergent does not contain a surfactant compound that is a soap, a detergent free of monoglycerides is preferred. The presence of monoglycerides in these cases is often associated with adverse cleaning and washing results and should therefore be regularly avoided.

[0379] The effects and advantages described above in connection with the detergent according to the invention are also preferably realized here.

[0727] With a suitable detergent, particularly favorable combinations of properties are often obtained; the person skilled in the art recognizes these favorable combinations based on their general technical knowledge and the teachings of the present invention. Furthermore, such a detergent can be produced in a particularly advantageous manner, and detergents made from the aforementioned raw materials are considered particularly advantageous in the field of the present invention.

[0728] A detergent is preferred (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above), wherein the detergent additionally contains one, two, three or more substances selected from the group consisting of:

[0729] Abrasive materials, preferably marble dust, chalk, clay and / or pumice,

[0730] Adsorbent, preferably wood, cellulose and / or plastic flour,

[0731] Alkalis, preferably ammonia, organic amines, sodium carbonate, sodium hydroxide and / or potassium hydroxide,

[0732] Alcohols, preferably ethanol, n-propanol and / or isopropanol

[0733] Bitter substances,

[0734] Bleaching agents, preferably oxygen-based bleaching agents, - bleach activators, preferably tetraacetylethylenediamine (TAED),

[0735] Complexing agents, preferably citrates, tetrasodium N,N-bis(carboxymethyl)-L-glutamate (GLDA), methylglycine diacetic acid trisodium salt (MGDA), iminodisuccinate tetrasodium salt (IDS), ethylendiamine N,N'-disuccinate trisodium salt (EDDS),

[0736] Fragrances,

[0737] Enzymes, preferably amylases, cellulases, lipases and / or proteases,

[0738] Dyes,

[0739] Preservatives, corrosion inhibitors, organic solvents,

[0740] Oils, fats and / or waxes,

[0741] Optical brighteners,

[0742] Acid,

[0743] Sequestrants and framework materials, preferably polycarboxylates and / or zeolites

[0744] Polymers, preferably polyester, polyamide, polyglycol, polyurethane, polysaccharide, polypeptide and / or other biopolymers

[0745] Discoloration inhibitors, preferably polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyvinylpyrrolidone-polyvinylimidazole and / or polyvinylpyridine N-oxide and

[0746] Water.

[0747] Abrasive materials, preferably marble dust, chalk, clay, and / or pumice, are often preferentially used in the detergent according to the invention when the detergent is an abrasive, a metal polish, and / or a stove cleaner. Corresponding ingredients such as marble dust, chalk, clay, and / or pumice serve here as mechanical abrasive components (abrasives) and polishing components (polishing agents). Due to their abrasiveness (scouring action), the abrasives enhance the cleaning performance.

[0748] Adsorbents, preferably wood, cellulose, and / or plastic flour, are often preferred in the detergent according to the invention when the detergent is a cleaning agent for textile surfaces, particularly preferably a carpet cleaner. Wood, cellulose, and plastic flour are used, for example, in powdered carpet cleaners as absorbent carrier materials, which are impregnated with liquid surfactants and / or solvents for this purpose. Alkalis, preferably ammonia, organic amines, sodium carbonate, sodium hydroxide, and / or potassium hydroxide, are often preferred in the detergent according to the invention. Ammonia, soda, sodium hydroxide, and potassium hydroxide are the most important basic materials for dirt-dissolving alkalis, which remove particularly stubborn deposits and blockages. They ensure the removal of oils, greases, and varnishes, but cannot dissolve limescale.

[0749] Alcohols, preferably ethanol, n-propanol, and / or isopropanol, are often preferred in the detergent according to the invention, particularly when the detergent is a glass cleaner or a liquid washing agent. The use of alcohols is also preferred in some other cases; those skilled in the art can identify these cases independently based on their general technical knowledge. Glass cleaners and liquid washing agents frequently contain alcohols in addition to the surfactants. The alcohols perform several functions simultaneously. They act as solubilizers to keep the raw materials in solution without clouding. As solvents, lower alcohols enhance the dirt-dissolving effect of the surfactants. Additionally, at higher concentrations, they act as preservatives and increase the storage stability of enzymes.

[0750] Bitter substances are often preferred in the detergent according to the invention. Generally, washing, dishwashing, and cleaning agents should be kept out of the reach of children. To prevent children who nevertheless get hold of a washing or cleaning agent from drinking the product, a bitter substance is often added. This bitter substance is intended to cause the product to be spat out immediately.

[0751] Bleaching agents, preferably oxygen-based bleaching agents, and bleach activators, preferably tetraacetylethylenediamine (TAED), are often preferably used in the detergent according to the invention when the detergent is a washing agent. Bleaching agents oxidize the organic dyes present in the laundry soil and thereby decolorize them. Percarbonate is predominantly used as an oxygen-based bleaching agent, which releases bleach-active oxygen at higher temperatures. Bleach activators increase the effectiveness of bleaching agents at low washing temperatures. Complexing agents, preferably citrates, tetrasodium N,N-bis(carboxymethyl)-L-glutamate (GLDA), methylglycine diacetic acid trisodium salt (MGDA), iminodisuccinate tetrasodium salt (IDS), and ethylenediamine N,N'-disuccinate trisodium salt (EDDS), are often preferably used in the detergent according to the invention.Complexing agents, for example citrates, phosphates, phosphonates, carboxylates, EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid), or NTA (tris(carboxymethyl)amine), are used to soften water and to enhance the cleaning action of products. Hard water makes the cleaning process more difficult, as the effectiveness of many surfactants is limited by the water hardness. Particularly in cases where the detergent according to the invention comprises surfactant compounds selected from group i), it is generally preferred if the detergent also includes complexing agents.

[0752] Fragrances are often preferably used in the detergent according to the invention. Fragrances in washing and cleaning agents (detergents) are intended to give the product a pleasant fragrance and simultaneously mask unpleasant odors of the components or the washing solution. Fragrances in laundry detergents or fabric softeners additionally impart a fragrance to the washed, damp laundry and the laundry ready for storage.

[0753] Enzymes, preferably amylases, cellulases, lipases, and / or proteases, are often used in the detergent according to the invention. Enzymes are proteins that can catalytically transform chemical substances. A specific enzyme can only cleave a specific chemical structure; the resulting products are then removed by the surfactants. Amylases remove starchy food residues from textiles or dishes. Cellulases indirectly improve the removal of dirt from cotton and other cellulose fibers because they break down amorphous cellulose components and protruding microfibril bundles. Lipases can break down natural fats and oils even at low temperatures on the surface to be cleaned and in the washing solution, making these soils significantly easier to remove. Proteases are the enzymes used longest and most frequently in detergents and machine dishwashing liquids.They break down protein-based stains such as blood, milk, egg, or cocoa, which are often very difficult to remove or wash off due to aging. Most enzymes work optimally in the temperature range of approximately 40° to 60°C.

[0754] Dyes are often preferably used in the detergent according to the invention. The purpose of dyes is to give the washing and cleaning agent (detergent) an appealing appearance, while simultaneously masking the variations in the inherent color caused by large-scale production.

[0755] Preservatives are often preferably used in the detergent according to the invention. To improve the shelf life of liquid or pasty (gel-like) washing agents and washing aids, they are sometimes supplemented with small amounts of chemical substances that prevent the development and growth of bacteria and fungi, such as mold and putrefactive organisms.

[0756] Corrosion inhibitors are often preferably used in the detergent according to the invention when the detergent is a washing agent. If aluminum parts come into contact with the strongly alkaline washing solution, corrosion damage results. Therefore, corrosion inhibitors such as silicates, organic salts, special surfactants, or fatty acids are often added to the washing agent.

[0757] Organic solvents are often preferred in the detergent according to the invention. Solvents are liquids that dissolve active ingredients without altering their composition, e.g., acetone, alcohol, gasoline, glycols, or water. They contribute to cleaning and evaporate after use. Solvents are particularly effective at removing stubborn dirt such as oil, grease, wax, tar, old layers of care products, paints, varnishes, and adhesives. They are also frequently necessary for the production of emulsions together with paraffin oil, fats, waxes, etc., in products for furniture, shoe, floor, and car care. Based on a voluntary agreement, manufacturers of cleaning and care products refrain from using highly effective but potentially harmful, volatile solvents such as chlorinated hydrocarbons. Water-immiscible solvents, e.g., gasoline, must not enter wastewater systems.

[0758] Oils, fats, and / or waxes are often preferred in the detergent according to the invention. Oils, fats, and waxes are components of care products and conditioning cleaning agents. They provide corrosion protection, repel water, facilitate polishing, and protect the material surface, for example, against burn-in damage.

[0759] Optical brighteners are often preferably used in detergents according to the invention when the detergent is a washing agent. The optical brighteners used as whitening agents / brighteners in washing agents adhere to the fibers and are able to convert ultraviolet light, invisible to the human eye, into visible blue light. This additional blue light, together with the complementary color yellow, gives the laundry a particularly brilliant white. Optical brighteners adhere to the fibers during washing and then remain on the laundry. Accordingly, they have no washing effect.

[0760] Acids are often preferentially used in the detergent according to the invention when the detergent is a bathroom cleaner and / or a cleaner for hard surfaces contaminated with limescale. Formic, sulfamic, citric, acetic, lactic, methanesulfonic, phosphoric, or hydrochloric acid are added to cleaning agents in suitable concentrations to remove limescale deposits. Some of them possess disinfectant properties. The organic acids are readily biodegradable.

[0761] Sequestrants and builders, preferably polycarboxylates and / or zeolites, are often preferred when the detergent is a washing powder. Polycarboxylates are the water-soluble salts of polycarboxylic acids. In phosphate-free washing powders, they are used in combination with zeolite A as co-builders (builders) to prevent the precipitation of sparingly soluble alkaline earth salts. This prevents deposits from forming on the laundry or the heating elements of the washing machine. Furthermore, as anti-graying agents, they improve the color vibrancy of the laundry.

[0762] Polymers, preferably polyesters, polyamides, polyglycols, polyurethanes, polysaccharides, polypeptides, and / or other biopolymers, are often preferred in the detergent according to the invention. Polymers preferably used in the detergent according to the invention are gloss-enhancing or protective plastics such as polystyrene, polyacrylates, polyurethanes, and polyethylenes, which are used as aqueous mixtures in care products. After the water evaporates, mechanically resistant protective films are formed, which are intended to prevent rapid resoiling. Polymers are only partially subject to biodegradation processes. They are bound to sewage sludge.

[0763] Discoloration inhibitors, preferably polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyvinylpyrrolidone-polyvinylimidazole, and / or polyvinylpyridine N-oxide, are often preferred in the detergent according to the invention when the detergent is a washing agent and / or a cleaning agent for textile surfaces. When washing textiles made of cellulose fibers, for example, cotton, linen, or viscose, the discoloration inhibitor generally prevents or reduces the staining of these textiles by leaching dyes. Water is often preferred in the detergent according to the invention when the detergent is in liquid (or gel) form. The water content is often used to adjust the viscosity of the detergent to a value that is considered preferred in the field of the present invention.

[0764] In many cases, a detergent (as described above, preferably referred to as preferred above) is also preferred, wherein the detergent additionally contains one, two, three or more substances selected from the group consisting of:

[0765] Abrasive materials, preferably marble dust, chalk, clay and / or pumice,

[0766] Alkalis, preferably ammonia, organic amines, sodium carbonate, sodium hydroxide and / or potassium hydroxide,

[0767] Alcohols, preferably ethanol, n-propanol and / or isopropanol

[0768] Complexing agents, preferably citrates, tetrasodium N,N-bis(carboxymethyl)-L-glutamate (GLDA), methylglycine diacetic acid trisodium salt (MGDA), iminodisuccinate tetrasodium salt (IDS), ethylendiamine N,N'-disuccinate trisodium salt (EDDS),

[0769] Fragrances,

[0770] Enzymes, preferably amylases, cellulases, lipases and / or proteases,

[0771] Dyes,

[0772] Preservatives, organic solvents,

[0773] Oils, fats and / or waxes,

[0774] Acids, sequestrants and framework materials, preferably polycarboxylates and / or zeolites

[0775] Polymers, preferably polyester, polyamide, polyglycol, polyurethane, polysaccharide, polypeptide and / or other biopolymers and

[0776] Water.

[0777] In many cases, a particularly favorable combination of properties is obtained with a suitable detergent; the person skilled in the art recognizes these favorable combinations of properties based on their general technical knowledge and the teachings of the present invention. The person skilled in the art independently applies the additional substances defined above based on their general technical knowledge and the requirements of the individual case.

[0800] In many cases, the use of the substances defined above is not preferred in the field of the present invention. A detergent according to the invention in which these substances are not present is therefore preferred in many cases. That the detergent is substantially free of these substances means that it contains no more than the impurities with these substances typically occurring in the field of the present invention, but no additional amounts of these substances. That the detergent is completely free of these substances means that these substances are not detectable in the detergent using the analytical methods customary in the field of the present invention.

[0801] In many cases, a particularly favorable combination of properties is obtained with a suitable detergent; the person skilled in the art recognizes these favorable combinations of properties based on their general technical knowledge and the teachings of the present invention.

[0935] Example 1.2: Test method “wiping glass interior dirt”

[0936] The rapid mechanical cleaning performance (wiping method) against dirt type B ("interior dirt") from the IKW's "Recommendations for the Quality Assessment of Glass Cleaning Agents / Glass Cleaners" (dated January 31, 2022) was tested. The test procedure followed the IKW's "Recommendations for the Quality Assessment of Glass Cleaning Agents / Glass Cleaners" (dated January 31, 2022), with the following modifications being the only deviations from the procedure described therein:

[0937] - Instead of mirror tiles, ceramic tiles (101, 201) were used as the substrate for the test soiling; Villeroy & Boch 3135 floor tile, 30 cm x 30 cm: Villeroy & Boch AG, Head Office, P.O. Box 1 120, 66688 Mettlach, Tel: +49

[0938] 6864 81 -0;

[0939] - Instead of the described Sheen device, a single-track hand wiper made of stainless steel (dimensions: 2.7 x 8.0 cm, weight: 240 g) (103, 203) was used, which is designed for individually wiping single strips on the soiling. A precisely cut cleaning textile was used (as a covering (104, 204) of the single-track hand wiper (103, 203);

[0940] - Instead of visual inspection, the cleaned dirt monitors were photographed in a photo booth and evaluated using a PC, as described below in the present example.

[0941] For each experiment, the hand-held wiping device was fitted with a precisely cut cleaning textile (104, 204), and the cleaning textile (fitting) (104, 204) was soaked with 2.8 ml of the detergent under investigation or the reference detergent under investigation. The single-track hand-held wiping device was then moved back and forth along a rail (105, 205) over the soiling three times without additional pressure (corresponding to three "strokes").

[0942] For evaluation purposes, the cleaned tiles were photographed in a photo booth after drying. Using a suitable computer program, a percentage brightness value was calculated for each cleaned area from the photograph, compared to the brightness of a 100% clean surface (white; value corresponds to 100% cleaning performance) and a completely soiled surface (black; value corresponds to 0% cleaning performance). A higher percentage value therefore correlates with better cleaning performance, and vice versa.

[0943] Example 1.3: Performing tests according to the test method “wiping glass interior dirt”

[0944] Following the method from Example 1.2 above, the cleaning performance (wiping method) against dirt type B (“interior dirt”) was determined for the detergents (D1-4 and D1-5) and reference detergents (VD1-1, VD1-2, and VD1-3) defined in Example 1.1 above.

[0961] The rapid mechanical cleaning performance (wiping method) against crosslinked dried grease and dust (III) from the "IKW Recommendation for Quality Assessment of Product Performance of All-Purpose Cleaners 2014" was tested. The procedure followed the "IKW Recommendation for Quality Assessment of Product Performance of All-Purpose Cleaners 2014", with the following modifications being the only deviations from the procedure described therein:

[0962] - Instead of the described Sheen device, a single-track hand wiper (103,

[0963] 203) made of stainless steel (dimensions 2.7 x 8.0 cm, weight: 240 g) is used, which is intended for individually wiping individual strips on the soiling.

[0964] - A precisely tailored cleaning textile was used (as a covering (104,

[0965] 204) of a single-track hand-held wiper (103, 203).

[0966] - Instead of visual inspection, the cleaned dirt monitors were photographed in a photo booth and evaluated using a PC, as described below in the present example.

[0967] For each experiment, the hand-held wiping device was fitted with a precisely cut cleaning textile (104, 204), and the cleaning textile (fitting) (104, 204) was soaked with 2.8 ml of the detergent under investigation or the reference detergent under investigation. The single-track hand-held wiping device was then moved back and forth along a rail (105, 205) over the soiling eight times without additional pressure (corresponding to eight "strokes").

[0968] For evaluation, the cleaned dirt monitors were photographed in a photo booth after drying. Using suitable PC software, a percentage brightness value was calculated for each wiped area from the photograph, compared to the brightness of a 100% cleaned area (white; value corresponds to 100% cleaning performance) and a completely soiled area (black; value corresponds to 0% cleaning performance). A higher percentage value therefore correlates with better cleaning performance, and vice versa.

[0969] Example 2.3: Test method “Exposure to DT40.60”

[0970] The self-acting cleaning performance (contact method) against crosslinking dried grease-dust dirt (III) from the KW recommendation for the quality assessment of the product performance of all-purpose cleaners 2014” is tested according to the test method “contact DT40.60” described here.

[0971] To determine the self-cleaning effect (contact method) against crosslinking dried grease-dust dirt (III) from the "IKW Recommendation for the Quality Assessment of Product Performance of All-Purpose Cleaners 2014", a glass fiber filter plate (VWR 691, diameter 21 mm) was soaked with 0.5 mL of the detergent under test or the reference detergent under test. The soaked glass fiber filter plates were then placed on the horizontally arranged, soiled surface and removed after 60 minutes (contact time).

[0972] During the contact time, the glass filter pads were covered with a watch glass to minimize evaporation of individual components. After the contact time (60 minutes), each filter pad was rinsed under running cold water (approx. 15 °C) using a soft, medium-pored foam sponge and applying only the minimum necessary pressure. The area of ​​grease-dust contamination (III) where the filter pad had been placed during the contact time was evaluated. For this evaluation, the cleaned monitors were photographed in a photo booth after drying. Using suitable computer software, a percentage brightness value was calculated for each cleaned area from the photograph, compared to the brightness of a 100% cleaned area (white; value corresponds to 100% cleaning performance) and a completely soiled area (black; value corresponds to 0% cleaning performance).A higher percentage value therefore correlates with better cleaning performance and vice versa.

[0973] Example 2.4: Conducting tests according to the "Wipe DT40" test method

[0974] According to the method from the example 2.2 above (test method “wiping DT40”), the cleaning performance (wiping method) against crosslinking dried grease and dust dirt (III) from the “IKW recommendation for the quality assessment of the product performance of all-purpose cleaners 2014” was determined for the detergents (D2-4 and D2-5) and comparison detergents (VD2-1, VD2-2 and VD2-3) defined in the example 2.1 above.

Example 5.2: Conducting tests according to the test method "Wiping glass interior dirt"

[1055] According to the method from Example 1.2 above (test method “wiping glass interior dirt”), the cleaning performance (wiping method) against dirt type B (“interior dirt”) was determined for the detergents (D5-4 and D5-5) and comparison detergents (VD5-1, VD5-2 and VD5-3) defined in Example 5.1 above. The results of these tests are given in Table 5c.

[1060] Example 5.3: Test method “Wipe DT40.12”

[1061] The rapid mechanical cleaning performance (wiping method) against crosslinked dried grease and dust (III) from the "IKW Recommendation for Quality Assessment of Product Performance of All-Purpose Cleaners 2014" was tested. The procedure followed the "IKW Recommendation for Quality Assessment of Product Performance of All-Purpose Cleaners 2014", with the following modifications being the only deviations from the procedure described therein:

[1062] - Instead of the described Sheen device, a single-track hand wiper (103,

[1063] 203) made of stainless steel (dimensions 2.7 x 8.0 cm, weight: 240 g) is used, which is intended for individually wiping individual strips on the soiling.

[1064] - A precisely tailored cleaning textile was used (as a covering (104,

[1065] 204) of a single-track hand-held wiper (103, 203). - Instead of visual inspection, the cleaned dirt monitors were photographed in a photo booth and evaluated using a PC, as described below in the present example.

[1066] For each experiment, the hand-held wiping device was fitted with a precisely cut cleaning textile (104, 204), and the cleaning textile (fitting) (104, 204) was soaked with 2.8 ml of the detergent under investigation or the reference detergent under investigation. The single-track hand-held wiping device was then moved back and forth along a rail (105, 205) over the soiling 12 times without additional pressure (corresponding to 12 "strokes").

[1067] For evaluation purposes, the cleaned dirt monitors were photographed in a photo booth immediately after the cleaning attempt. Using suitable PC software, a percentage brightness value was calculated for each wiped area from the photograph, compared to the brightness of a 100% cleaned area (white; value corresponds to 100% cleaning performance) and a completely soiled area (black; value corresponds to 0% cleaning performance). A higher percentage value therefore correlates with better cleaning performance, and vice versa.

[1068] Example 5.4: Performing tests according to the test method “Wipe DT40.12”

[1069] According to the method from Example 5.3 above (test method “wiping DT40.12”), the cleaning performance (wiping method) against crosslinked dried grease and dust (III) from the “IKW Recommendation on the Quality Assessment of Product Performance of All-Purpose Cleaners 2014” was determined for the detergents (D5-4 and D5-5) and reference detergents (VD5-1, VD5-2 and VD5-3) defined in Example 5.1 above. The results of these tests are given in Table 5c.

[1137] Fatty alcohol C16 / 18:1 * 10.5 EO-CH3COOH (with a C16 / 18 ratio of 14 / 86) and fatty alcohol C10 * 6 EO-CH3COOH were used together with 2% citric acid. The finished detergents and reference detergents contained 2 wt% surfactant (total), based on the total mass of the respective detergent or reference detergent; the missing value to reach 100 wt% represents demineralized water. The finished detergents and reference detergents each had a pH of 2.0.

[1138] Example 8.3: Test method “Cleaning limescale soap (wiping)”

[1139] The rapid mechanical cleaning performance (wiping method) against limescale soap was tested. High-gloss, white tiles were soiled with the test dirt (calcium stearate suspension) described therein, following the procedure outlined in section 3.2 of the "Recommendation for Quality Assessment of Bathroom Cleaners: Quality Recommendations of the German Cosmetic, Toiletry, Perfumery and Detergent Association (IKW), Cleaning and Care Products Department, Frankfurt am Main (2002 edition)." Instead of the contact method described in section 3.2 of the IKW method, a single-track hand wiper made of stainless steel (dimensions 2.7 x 8.0 cm, weight: 240 g) was used to clean the soiling. This wiper is designed for individual wiping of single strips across the soiled area.

[1140] The hand-held wiping device was covered with a precisely cut cleaning cloth and soaked with 2.8 ml each of the detergent under investigation and the reference detergent under investigation. The single-track hand-held wiping device was then moved vertically back and forth along its track 15 times over the soiling (corresponding to 15 "strokes").

[1141] For evaluation purposes, the cleaned tiles were photographed in a photo booth after drying. Using a suitable computer program, a percentage brightness value was calculated for each cleaned area from the photograph, compared to the brightness of a 100% clean surface (white; value corresponds to 100% cleaning performance) and a completely soiled surface (black; value corresponds to 0% cleaning performance). A higher percentage value therefore correlates with better cleaning performance, and vice versa.

[1142] Example 8.4 Test method “Cleaning lime soap (soaking time)”

[1143] The self-cleaning performance (contact method) against lime soap was tested according to the procedure from section 3.2 of the “Recommendation for quality assessment for bathroom cleaners Quality recommendations of the German Cosmetic, Toiletry, Perfumery and Detergent Association (IKW), Department of Cleaning and Care Products, Frankfurt aM (Version 2002)”.

[1144] The exposure time was 2.5 minutes.

[1145] For evaluation purposes, the cleaned tiles (deviating from the visual assessment specified in section 3.2 of the IKW method) were photographed in a photo booth after drying. Using suitable computer software, a percentage brightness value was calculated for each wiped area from the photograph, compared to the brightness of a 100% cleaned surface (white; value corresponds to 100% cleaning performance) and a completely soiled surface (black; value corresponds to 0% cleaning performance). A higher percentage value therefore correlates with better cleaning performance and vice versa. Example 8.5: Conducting tests according to the test method "Cleaning limescale soap (wiping)"

[1146] According to the method from Example 8.3 above (test method “Lime soap cleaning (wiping)”), the cleaning performance (wiping method) compared to lime soap was determined for the detergents (D8-4 and D8-5) and comparison detergents (VD8-1, VD8-2 and VD8-3) defined in Example 8.1 above. The results of these tests are given in Table 8c.

[1314] To determine the cleaning performance against grease stains on textiles (washing), a cotton swatch (5 x 5 cm; Fabric: C-01s, Mineral oil with carbon black; CFT) soiled with colored mineral oil was washed in a laboratory washing machine in a washing solution (150 ml; detergent plus demineralized water) for 45 minutes at 40°C. 25 steel pellets (0.635 cm diameter) were added to the load. Eight tests were performed. The washing solution, consisting of detergent and demineralized water, contained 5 g of detergent per 1 liter of demineralized water. After washing, the textile was rinsed with lukewarm water and dried.

[1315] For evaluation, the cleaned textile swatches were photographed immediately after drying in a photo booth. Using suitable computer software, a percentage brightness value was calculated for each wiped area from the photograph, compared to the brightness of a 100% clean textile swatch (white; value corresponds to 100% cleaning performance) and a completely soiled textile swatch (black; value corresponds to 0% cleaning performance). A higher percentage value therefore correlates with better cleaning performance, and vice versa.

[1316] Example 12.3: Conducting tests according to the test method “Grease stains on textile fabrics (washing)”

[1317] According to the method from Example 12.2 above, the washing performance (washing) against grease stains on textile fabrics was determined for the detergents (D12-3, D12-4, D12-5, D12-6 and D12-7) and comparison detergents (VD12-1 and VD12-2) defined in Example 12.1 above. The results of these tests are given in Tables 12ci and 12cii.

[1375] To estimate the rinsing performance, the emulsifying behavior of the detergent is examined and its emulsifying ability is thus determined.

[1376] For this purpose, 66.67 g each of the detergent (previously diluted 1:20 with demineralized water) and the reference detergent were emulsified with 33.33 g of refined rapeseed oil for 2 minutes at 1200 rpm in a 400 ml tall beaker using a paddle stirrer. The mixture was transferred to a 250 ml graduated cylinder and observed. After a waiting period of 45 minutes, the volume (in mL) of the oil phase was recorded. Using this volume (mL) and the density (g / mL) of the edible oil relative to the weighed amount of oil (g), the percentage of emulsified oil was calculated.

[1377] Example 13.3: Conducting tests according to the test method “Emulsifying behavior”

[1378] According to the method from Example 13.2 above, the proportion of emulsified oil was determined for the detergents (D13-3 and D13-4) and reference detergents (VD13-1, VD13-2, VD13-5 and VD13-6) defined in Example 13.1 above. The results of these tests are given in Tables 13ci and 13cii.

[1418] Instead of the described Sheen device, a single-track hand wiper (103, 203) made of stainless steel (dimensions 2.7 x 8.0 cm, weight: 240 g) was used, which is designed for individually wiping single strips on the soiled area. A precisely cut cleaning textile was used (as a covering (104, 204) of the single-track hand wiper (103, 203).

[1419] Instead of visual inspection, the cleaned dirt monitors were photographed in a photo booth and evaluated using a PC, as described below in the present example.

[1420] For each experiment, the hand-held wiping device was fitted with a precisely cut cleaning textile (104, 204), and the cleaning textile (fitting) (104, 204) was soaked with 2.8 ml of the detergent under investigation or the reference detergent under investigation. The single-track hand-held wiping device was then moved back and forth along a rail (105, 205) over the soiling six times without additional pressure (corresponding to six "strokes").

[1421] For evaluation, the cleaned dirt monitors were photographed in a photo booth after drying. Using suitable PC software, a percentage brightness value was calculated for each wiped area from the photograph, compared to the brightness of a 100% cleaned area (white; value corresponds to 100% cleaning performance) and a completely soiled area (black; value corresponds to 0% cleaning performance). A higher percentage value therefore correlates with better cleaning performance, and vice versa.

[1422] Example 14.3: Conducting tests according to the "Wipe DT47" test method

[1423] According to the method from Example 14.2 above (test method “wiping DT47”), the cleaning performance (wiping method) against burnt-on grease and gravy mixture was determined for the detergents (D14-3 and D14-4) and comparison detergents (VD14-1 and VD14-2) defined in Example 14.1 above. The results of these tests are given in Table 14c.

[1429] The procedure for the hydrolytic cleavage of surfactant compounds in detergents as well as the qualitative and guantitative determination of the mass content of their hydrophobic residues is described below.

[1430] Procedure for the hydrolytic cleavage of surfactant compounds in detergents as well as qualitative and guantitative determination of the mass content of their hydrophobic residues

[1431] For the acid hydrolytic cleavage of surfactants in a detergent, 5 g of the aqueous detergent are mixed with 5 g of fuming hydrochloric acid (37%), and this reaction mixture is transferred to a bomb tube. The bomb tube is sealed, placed in a steel protective casing, and then heated to 120 °C in a bomb furnace. The reaction mixture is held at 120 °C for 48 h. The hydrolytic cleavage breaks down the hydrophobic molecular parts of the surfactants with the general formulas RC(O)-OM and R-C(O)-OR. 1 and RC(O)-NR 1 R 2converted into the corresponding fatty acids RC(O)-OH. The hydrophobic residues of the surfactants have the general formulas R-CH2OR. 1 are converted into the fatty alcohols R-CH2OH.

[1432] After cooling, the bomb tube is opened and the reaction mixture is transferred to a separatory funnel. The mixture is extracted three times with 20 mL of n-hexane. During this process, the fatty acids and fatty alcohols hydrolytically cleaved from the surfactants are transferred into the n-hexane phase. The combined n-hexane phases are dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. After filtering off the drying agent and rinsing with 50 mL of n-hexane, the filtrate is transferred to a round-bottom flask and the n-hexane is removed using a rotary evaporator.

[1433] The fatty acids and fatty alcohols remaining in the round-bottom flask are reconstituted with a defined amount of 100 g to 200 g of n-hexane. This solution (or a previously diluted solution, if necessary) is subjected to analytical liquid chromatography (LC) to separate the different fatty acids and fatty alcohols. Qualitative detection of the separated fatty acids and fatty alcohols is performed by coupled mass spectrometry (MS), and their quantitative determination is carried out using a refractive index detector (RDI).

[1434] From the mass concentrations of the individual long- and short-chain fatty acids and fatty alcohols determined in this way, the mass concentrations of the corresponding long- and short-chain hydrophobic residues R in the detergent can be determined. For this purpose, the determined mass concentrations of all fatty acids are reduced by the mass fraction of one -COOH unit, and the determined mass concentrations of all fatty alcohols are similarly reduced by the mass fraction of one -CH2-OH unit.

[1435] The distribution of these hydrophobic residue groups in the investigated detergent is derived from the mass contents of all short-chain (R = 7 to 10 C atoms), long-chain (R with 17 to 23 C atoms) and medium-chain (R = 11 to 16 C atoms) hydrophobic residues R determined in this way.
