Liquid detergent compositions are described which comprise conventional detergen cy ingredients and color-stabilizing compounds yielding various sulfite ions in the finished product.
Description
2 1 ~ 6 PCT/US92/09387 COLOR-STABILIZATION SYSTEM IN LIQUID DETERGENT COMPOSITIONS
Technical field The present invention relates to liquid detergent compositions. The compositions according to the present invention are stabilized against color alteration.
Backqround of the invention Liquid detergent compositions are well known in the art.
It is desirable that such compositions should have an attractive color as the compositions aesthetics is a key element in terms of consumer acceptance. A broad palette of dyes is available to the detergent formulator in order to address this need.
As an alternative, some compositions can be marketed without dyes, when the color of the product without dyes is sufficiently attractive.
However, it has been observed that in certain liquid detergent formulations, the color of the fresh product would not remain unchanged through prolonged periods. This represents a problem for the detergent manufacturer as detergents should be capable of withstanding prolonged periods of storage without undergoing significant alteration in any respect, including product aesthetics.
The reasons for this color alteration have not been precisely identified, but it is believed that such ingredients as alkanolamines are to some extent responsible for this phenomenon. Perfumes also appear to play a role, quite undefined because of the complex nature of perfumes.
Thus, the extent of the color alteration phenomenon throughout time varies from one composition to the other.
It has been observed that this color alteration phenomenon occurs in detergent compositions, irrespective of the presence of a dye, i.e. it is the color of the "base"
without the dye which is altered. Unfortunately, the presence of a dye does not always suffice to mask the color alteration phenomenon.
The above problem is more accute in "modern" liquid detergents as these detergents tend to be formulated as so-called concentrated liquid detergents wherein the interaction between the different ingredients and therefore the color alteration is favored. Also, these liquid concentrated detergents often encompass the use of alkanolamines which, as mentioned hereinabove, are to some extent responsible for the color alteration phenomenon.
It is thus an object of the present invention to formulate liquid detergent compositions which are stabilized against color alteration throughout prolonged periods.
In response to this object, the present invention proposes to formulate liquid detergent compositions which comprise low levels of materials yielding various sulfite ions in the detergent composition, as color-stabilizing compounds.
An advantage of the present invention is that it offers a color stabilization system which is efficient in all products where color alteration occurs, with or without dye. It is another advantage of the present invention that 2 1 22~86 it proposes the use of simple chemicals, which are commercially available and relatively inexpensive.
Summary of the Invention The present invention relates to a liquid detergent composition stabilized against significant color alternation over prolonged periods of storage, which composition comprises: A) from 5~ to 60~ by weight of an organic surface-active agent; B) from 5~ to 35~ by weight of a builder system;
C) from 4~ to 16~ by weight of an alkanolamine component selected from monoethanolamine, triethanolamine and mixtures thereof; D) from 0.3~ to 0.6~ by weight of a perfume component tending to cause color alteration; and E) 0.01~ to 0.1~ of a color stabilizing compound or mixtures thereof selected from the group of ammonium, alkanolammonium and metal salts of sulfite, hydrogen sulfite and pyrosulfite.
Detailed Description of the Invention The liquid detergent compositions according to the present invention comprise conventional detergency ingredients and the color stabilization system.
As the color stabilization system, the detergent compositions according to the present invention comprise from 0.01~ to 0.1~
by weight of the total composition of a compound selected from sulfite (So32~), hydrogenosulfite (HSO~-) or pyrosulfite salts (S2Os2-). Suitable sulfite, hydrogenosulfite and pyrosulfite salts include metal salts, ammonium salts and alkanolammonium salts. Preferred salts for use herein are sodium, potassium, calcium alkanolammonium and ammonium salts. These compounds are commonly used as food preservatives and are therefore commercially available. Hydrogenosulfite, sulfur dioxide and sulfurous acid solutions are also commercially available.
l~i 2 1 22'~86 The preferred color-stabilizing compound according to the present invention is sodium pyrosulfite.
Without wanting to be bound by theory, it is believed that it is hydrogenosulfite ions which are mainly responsible for the color-stabilizing effect observed. However, any of the compounds described hereinabove can be added to the detergent composition as said compounds are all believed to yield hydrogenosulfite ions in the finished product. Alpha-hydroxyalkyl sulfonic acids are therefore also suitable for use in the compositions according to the invention as they yield hydrogenosulfite ions in the finished product. Alpha-hydroxyalkyl sulfonic acids can be prepared by reacting aldehydes or ketones with Na bisulfite, as described for instance in J. March, Advanced Organic Chemistry, McGraw-Hill, 1977, page 816. The alkyl chain length and configuration of the alpha-hydroxy alkyl sulfonic acid is not critical herein.
Preferred alkyl chains are C1 to C1s aliphatic chains.
