Description

Es ist bekannt, daß gewisse kationische quartäre Ammoniumverbindungen, wenn man sie im letzten Spülbad der Waschmaschine zusetzt, den verschiedenen Gewebearten, wie z.B. Baumwolle, Wolle, Baumwollsynthetik-Mischgewebe, einen guten Griff und gleichzeitig antistatische Eigenschaften verleihen. Es bereitet aber gewisse Schwierigkeiten, höher konzentriert eingestellte Formulierungen dieser Wäscheweichspülmittel herzustellen und sie gleichmäßig in der kalten Spülflotte zu verteilen, weil bei Zusatz von Weichspülern in Form von konzentrierten wäßrigen oder alkoholischen Lösungen gallertartige Ausscheidungen auftreten, die zur Bildung von Flecken auf der Wäsche führen können. Auch die Verdünnung eines solchen Konzentrates auf eine handelsübliche 2 - 5 %ige Formulierung bereitet Schwierigkeiten. Meistens erhält man eine gelartige Mischung, die schwer oder überhaupt nicht mehr in kaltem Wasser dispergierbar ist.It is known that certain cationic quaternary ammonium compounds, when added in the final rinse of the washing machine, can be used in various types of fabrics, e.g. Cotton, wool, synthetic cotton blend, give a good grip and at the same time antistatic properties. However, there are certain difficulties in producing formulations of these fabric softening agents with a higher concentration and distributing them evenly in the cold washing liquor, because when softeners are added in the form of concentrated aqueous or alcoholic solutions, gelatinous precipitates occur which can lead to the formation of stains on the laundry . It is also difficult to dilute such a concentrate to a commercially available 2-5% formulation. Usually a gel-like mixture is obtained which is difficult or impossible to disperse in cold water.

Wäscheweichspülmittel werden deshalb bisher allgemein in Form von verdünnten, etwa 2 - 10. %igen wäßrigen Lösungen, verwendet. Diese verdünnten Lösungen weisen jedoch verschiedene Nachteile auf. Sie können z.B. nicht kalt gelagert werden, da.sie nach dem Einfrieren und Wiederauftauen eine Gelkonsistenz annehmen und nicht mehr in homogene Lösung gebracht werden können. Ein weiterer Nachteil ist der hohe an sich überflüssige Wassergehalt dieser Lösungen.For this reason, fabric softeners have so far been used generally in the form of dilute, about 2 to 10% aqueous solutions. However, these diluted solutions have several disadvantages. You can e.g. should not be stored in a cold place, as they will become gel-like after freezing and thawing and can no longer be brought into a homogeneous solution. Another disadvantage is the high excess water content of these solutions.

Es wurde nun gefunden, daß es gelingt, flüssige konzentrierte Zubereitungen von Wäscheweichspülmitteln herzustellen, die diese Nachteile der verdünnten Lösungen nicht aufweisen, und die sich auch in kaltem Spülwasser leicht verteilen.It has now been found that it is possible to produce liquid, concentrated preparations of fabric softeners which do not have these disadvantages of the dilute solutions and which are readily distributed even in cold rinse water.

Gegenstand der Erfindung sind somit flüssige Wäscheweichspülmittel bestehend aus einer wäßrigen Lösung oder Dispersion von Verbindungen der Formel 1.

Als R1 ist Methyl bevorzugt.The invention thus relates to liquid fabric softeners consisting of an aqueous solution or dispersion of compounds of the formula 1.

Figure imgb0004

Die erfindungsgemäß zu verwendenden quartären Verbindungen werden nach bekannten Verfahren durch Umsetzung von Verbindungen der letztgenannten Formel mit Alkylierungsreagentien wie beispielsweise Alkylhalogeniden oder Alkylschwefelsäureester umgesetzt. Die quartären Verbindungen fallen dabei je nach eingesetzter Fettsäure als hochviskose Flüssigkeit bis feste Substanzen an.The quaternary compounds to be used according to the invention are reacted according to known processes by reacting compounds of the last-mentioned formula with alkylating reagents such as, for example, alkyl halides or alkyl sulfuric acid esters. The quaternary compounds are obtained depending on the fatty acid used as a highly viscous liquid to solid substances.

Bei der Bereitung der flüssigen Weichspülmittel gemäß der Erfindung werden diese kationischen weichmachenden Verbindungen zweckmäßig in Form ihrer konzentrierten Lösungen in niederen Alkoholen, vorzugsweise Isopropanol oder im Gemisch dieser Alkohole mit Wasser eingesetzt. Die erfindungsgemäßen Wäscheweichspülmittel enthalten in diesem Fall eine bestimmte Menge solcher niederen Alkohole (ca. 5 - 30 Gew.-%).When preparing the liquid fabric softeners according to the invention, they will soften cationic ones the compounds expediently used in the form of their concentrated solutions in lower alcohols, preferably isopropanol or in a mixture of these alcohols with water. In this case, the fabric softening agents according to the invention contain a certain amount of such lower alcohols (approx. 5-30% by weight).

Ein weiterer Bestandteil der Wäscheweichspülmittel gemäß der Erfindung können übliche nichtionische Dispergatoren oder Emulgatoren sein auf Basis von Oxalkylaten, die mit dazu beitragen, daß das Wäscheweichspülmittel in kaltem Wasser gut dispergierbar ist. Geeignete nichtionische Dispergatoren sind z.B. Umsetzungsprodukte von jeweils etwa 2 - 12 Mol Ethylenoxid mit einem Alkylphenol wie z.B. Xylenol, aber auch mit einem Alkylphenol mit einem langen Alkylrest von 8 - 10 C-Atomen oder mit einem Fettalkohol mit 8 bis 15 C-Atomen, insbesondere Umsetzungprodukte von etwa 5 bis 8 Mol EO mit 1 Mol Alkylphenol oder 1 Mol eines 8 bis 15 C-Atome enthaltenden Fettalkohols oder eines Gemisches solcher Fettalkohole. Die Menge dieser nichtionischen Verbindungen beträgt 3 bis 10 Gew.-% bei schwach konzentrierten Wäscheweichspülmitteln mit einem Gehalt der Verbindungen der.Formel 1 von ca. 10 bis 30 Gew.-%. Höher konzentrierte Wäscheweichspülmittel mit einem Gehalt der Verbindungen der Formel 1 von ca. 30 bis 70 Gew.-% enthalten vorzugsweise 5 bis 20 Gew.-% der nichtionischen Dispergiermittel. Bei den verdünnten, handelsüblichen Wäscheweichspülmitteln ist die Zugabe von solchen Dispergiermitteln nicht nötig. Solche verdünnten Wäscheweichspülmittel enthalten die quartäre Ammoniumverbindung in einer Konzentration von 2 bis 10 %.Another constituent of the fabric softener according to the invention can be customary nonionic dispersants or emulsifiers based on oxalkylates, which contribute to the fact that the fabric softener is readily dispersible in cold water. Suitable nonionic dispersants are e.g. Reaction products of about 2-12 moles of ethylene oxide each with an alkylphenol such as e.g. Xylenol, but also with an alkylphenol with a long alkyl radical of 8-10 carbon atoms or with a fatty alcohol with 8 to 15 carbon atoms, in particular reaction products of about 5 to 8 mol of EO with 1 mol of alkylphenol or 1 mol of an 8 to 15 C-containing fatty alcohol or a mixture of such fatty alcohols. The amount of these nonionic compounds is 3 to 10% by weight in the case of weakly concentrated fabric softeners with a content of the compounds of the formula 1 of approximately 10 to 30% by weight. Highly concentrated fabric softeners with a content of the compounds of formula 1 of approximately 30 to 70% by weight preferably contain 5 to 20% by weight of the nonionic dispersant. With the diluted, commercially available fabric softeners, it is not necessary to add such dispersants. Such diluted fabric softeners contain the quaternary ammonium compound in a concentration of 2 to 10%.

Die höher konzentrierten Wäscheweichspülmittel enthalten darüberhinaus.vorzügsweise noch 5 bis 30 Gew.-% eines Ethylenglykols, Propylenglykols, Polyethylenglykols, Polypropylenglykols sowie die C1-C4-Alkylether dieser Verbindungen. Es versteht sich, daß von dieser Produktgruppe nur solche Verbindungen in Frage kommen, die flüssig sind. Diese Verbindungen zeigen in den erfindungsgemäßen Wäscheweichspülmitteln eine lösungsvermittelnde Wirkung.The more highly concentrated fabric softeners also contain 5 to 30% by weight, preferably an ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol and the C 1 -C 4 -alkyl ethers of these compounds. It goes without saying that only compounds of this product group that are liquid are suitable. These compounds have a solubilizing effect in the fabric softeners according to the invention.

Die Herstellung der erfindungsgemäßen Wäscheweichspülmittel kann durch einfaches Vermischen der Komponenten oder ihrer konzentrierten Lösungen geschehen. Gegebenenfalls können auch Parfüm, Farbstoff, optische Aufhellungsmittel oder sonstige Hilfsstoffe zugesetzt werden. Zur Einstellung der gewünschten Endkonzentra-, tion wird gegebenenfalls noch mit der hierfür notwendigen Menge Wasser verdünnt. Die Mengen der einzelnen-Komponenten werden innerhalb der angegebenen Grenzen so gewählt, daß das fertige Mittel, einschließlich eventuell zusätzlicher Mengen an Wasser, Parfüm und Farbstoffen, 100 Gew.-% ergibt.The fabric softening agents according to the invention can be produced by simply mixing the components or their concentrated solutions. If necessary, perfume, dye, optical brighteners or other auxiliaries can also be added. To set the desired final concentration, it may be diluted with the necessary amount of water. The amounts of the individual components are chosen within the specified limits so that the finished agent, including any additional amounts of water, perfume and colorants, is 100% by weight.

Die Einsatzmenge der erfindungsgemäßen Wäscheweichspülmittel beträgt, bezogen auf eine Waschmaschinenfüllung Wäsche (ca. 4 kg) 80 bis 150 ml, 30 bis 70 ml bzw. 10 bis 20 ml für ein Weichspülmittel mit einem Gehalt einer Verbindung der Formel 1 von 2 bis 10 Gew.-%, 10 bis 30 Gew.-% bzw. 30 bis 70 Gew.-%.The amount of the fabric softener according to the invention, based on a washing machine load of laundry (approx. 4 kg), is 80 to 150 ml, 30 to 70 ml or 10 to 20 ml for a fabric softener containing a compound of the formula 1 of 2 to 10% by weight. -%, 10 to 30 wt .-% and 30 to 70 wt .-%.

Die erfindungsgemäßen Wäscheweichspülmittel, die gute weichmachende Eigenschaften aufweisen, lassen sich in kaltem Wasser gut dispergieren, ohne daß es zu einer störenden Gelbildung kommt. Hierbei ist es von Vorteil, daß diese Konzentrate mit geeigneten Dosiervorrichtungen direkt in Haushaltsmaschinen eingegeben werden können. Diese gute Löslichkeit erlaubt es auch, die erfindungsgemäßen Konzentrate erst kurz vor ihrer Eingabe in die Waschmaschine zu verdünnen, so daß die Wäscheweichspülmittel auch in konzentrierter Form und nicht nur als verdünnte wäßrige Lösungen gehandelt werden können. Dadurch entfällt die Notwendigkeit, auf allen Stufen des Handels größere, letzten Endes überflüssige Mengen Wasser transportieren zu müssen.The fabric softening agents according to the invention, which have good softening properties, can be dispersed well in cold water without causing disruptive gel formation. It is advantageous here that these concentrates can be fed directly into household machines with suitable metering devices.

This eliminates the need to transport large, ultimately superfluous amounts of water at all stages of the trade.
