Definitions

  • This invention relates to improved laundry detergent compositions containing al yl benzene sulfonate as the principal anionic surfactant and which compositions are effective for the removal of oily and particulate soils. More particularly, this invention relates to laundry detergent compositions having improved detergency based on the combination of an alkyl benzene sulfonate surfactant and a triblock polymeric co-surfactant comprising ethylene oxide and propylene oxide groups as herein defined.
  • Block copolymers of ethylene oxide (EO) and propylene oxide (PO) are extensively described in the patent literature. Among the principal uses disclosed for such copolymers are improved grease removal when incorporated into liquid dishwashing detergent compositions; and as anti-redeposition agents in liquid and powder detergent compositions. These EO/PO type block copolymers are often identified as Pluronic® block copolymers marketed by BASF.
  • U.S. Patent 4,904,359 describes liquid dishwashing detergent compositions containing a combination of a polymeric surfactant comprising a hydrophilic group such as polyethylene oxide and a hydrophobic group such as polypropylene oxide, and an anionic surfactant such as alkyl sulfate or polyethoxylate sulfate. This combination is said to provide superior grease removal from tableware and kitchen utensils as a detergent composition.
  • U.S. Patent 5,167,872 describes a dishwashing liquid detergent composition comprising a polymeric surfactant as described in the aforementioned U.S. Patent 4,904,359 wherein the composition further contains an anionic surfactant and a betaine surfactant.

  • Patent 4,724,095 there is described a detergent composition for washing textile fabrics comprising one or more principal types of copolymers , one of which is a copolymer of polyoxyethylene and polyoxyalkylene as an anti-redeposition agent.
  • This type of copolymer is said to be marketed under the trademark "Pluronics”.
  • U.S. 5,152,933 discloses the use of block copolymers of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide as a cosurfactant in detergent formulations containing mixed actives such as a combination of alkyl benzene sulfonate and ethoxylated alcohol.
  • the presence of the block copolymers is said to enhance oily soil removal and clay soil removal from soiled fabrics in an automatic washing machine. Improvements are also said to be observed in formulations that contain only nonionic surfactants.
  • a laundry detergent composition comprising (a) from about 1 to about 60% by weight of an anionic surfactant consisting essentially of a water-soluble salt of an alkyl benzene sulfonate;

  • laundering of soiled or stained fabrics is effected by washing the fabrics to be laundered in an aqueous wash solution containing an effective amount of the above-defined laundry detergent composition.
  • the present invention is predicated on the discovery of significantly enhanced detergency attendant to the use of the above-described triblock copolymer in a single anionic surfactant system, namely, an alkyl benzene sulfonate surfactant. Contrary to the disclosed use of triblock copolymers in the prior art as a co-surfactant in formulations containing mixed actives, the present invention provides unexpected improvement in detergency, and particularly oily soil detergency, for formulations containing a single anionic surfactant in combination with a triblock copolymer in accordance with the invention.
  • detergent compositions of the invention may be formulated to be cost-effective while providing good detergency performance relative to formulations which rely upon higher levels of actives to achieve substantially similar levels of detergency.
  • the present compositions are free of such fatty acids.

  • the alkyl benzene sulfonates useful herein contain from about 10 to 16 carbon atoms in the alkyl group in a straight or branched chain such as, for example, the sodium, potassium ammonium or substituted ammonium (such as mono, di and tri ethanolamine) or alkaline earth metal (such as calcium and magnesium) salts of higher alkyl benzene sulfonate.
  • sodium linear alkyl benzene sulfonate wherein the alkyl group is a straight chain alkyl group of 12 or 13 carbon atoms.
  • the weight percent of anionic surfactant in the laundry composition may vary from about 5 to about 50% and preferably is from about 15% to about 40%.

These copolymers are commerically available and are marketed, for example, by BASF Corporation under the trademark Pluronic®. A description of the preparation of these compounds is set forth in U.S. Patent No. 2,674,619, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
  • Preferred triblock copolymers for use herein are those wherein the eight of polyethylene oxide is from about 10% to about 80%, and most preferably from about 40% to about 80%, by weight, of the triblock copolymer.
  • the average molecular weight of the copolymer is most usefully within the range of from about 1 ,100 to about 8,400.
  • the weight percent of triblock copolymer in the laundry composition is usually from about 0.1% to 5%, and preferably from about 0.2% to about 2%, by weight. A decrease in laundering efficacy is noted when the percent of triblock copolymer in the detergent composition is at a level of 2.5% or higher, by weight of the detergent composition.
  • Builder materials may advantageously be included in the present compositions and may comprise any suitable water soluble or water insoluble builder, either inorganic or organic, providing that it is useful as a builder for the particular detergent compounds that are employed.
  • Such builders are well known to those of skill in the detergent art and include: alkali metal phosphates, such as alkali metal polyphosphates and pyrophosphates, including alkali metal tripolyphosphates; alkali metal silicates, including those of Na 2 O:SiO 2 ratio in the range of 1:1.6 to 1:3.0, preferably 1:2.0 to 1:2.8, and more preferably 1:2.35 or 1:2.4; alkali metal carbonates; alkali metal bicarbonates; alkali metal sesquicarbonates (which may be considered to be a mixture of alkali metal carbonates and alkali metal bicarbonates); alkali metal borates, e.g., borox; alkali metal citrates; alkali metal gluconates; alkali metal

  • Zeolite A-type aluminosilicate builder usually hydrated, with about 15 to 25% of water of hydration is particularly advantageous for the present invention. Hydrated zeolites X and Y may be useful too, as may be naturally occurring zeolites that can act as detergent builders. Of the various zeolite A products, zeolite 4A, a type of zeolite molecule wherein the pore size is about 4 Angstroms, is often preferred. This type of zeolite is well known in the art and methods for its manufacture are described in the art such as in U.S. Patent 3, 1 14,603. The zeolite builders are generally of the formula
