Definitions
- the invention relates to detergent compositions for machine dishwashing comprising one or more specific cucurbiturils and one or more nonionic surfactants, a method of cleaning dishes in a dishwashing machine, in which contaminated dishes are treated in the dishwashing machine with an aqueous alkaline composition comprising a detergent composition for machine dishwashing according to the invention, a method for counteracting malodour in a dishwashing machine comprising the application of a detergent composition for machine dishwashing according to the invention in a dishwashing cycle, the use of a detergent composition for machine dishwashing according to the invention to reduce malodour in the dishwashing machine, to reduce the transfer of malodour to plastic items in the dishwashing machine or as dishwasher care product as well as the use of one or more specific cucurbiturils for longterm release during the washing cycle in a dishwashing machine.
- Malodours are often complex mixtures of different molecules having diverse chemistries and smells.
- the smell of malodour may be pungent and even minute amounts of such molecules can create uncomfortable impressions to consumers. Therefore, many strategies have been proposed to counteract malodours.
- Preventive methods involve killing the bacteria that are responsible for the generation of malodours or inhibiting their growth, either by applying biocides, biostatic agents or controlling the microclimatic conditions in the locus where bacteria proliferate. These methods are used for example in the axilla or other part of the human or pet body.
- Eliminative methods involve using chemically reactive molecules that bind to the malodour and neutralize it; oxidation (burning) and ionization belong to eliminative methods.
- Malodour suppression methods can involve the use of absorbents and adsorbents. These materials are often environmentally friendly and in most cases have no noticeable odour. Malodour molecules are trapped in the pores of these materials and, therefore, their vapour pressure is depressed. However, these materials are generally not selective to malodour and may also bind desirable fragrance molecules. On the other hand water vapours, such as those present in moist conditions, for example above 50% relative humidity, may displace the malodour which is then released back into the air.
- Guest molecules are a special class of absorbents, characterized in that each molecule has a well-defined cavity instead of a distribution of pores.
- Host-guest complexes have been used in the field of perfumery and for malodour counteracting for some time.
- US 5,942,217 describes the use of an aqueous solution of cyclodextrin, more generally referred to as cyclic oligosaccharides, for neutralizing malodour. Absorption of the malodour molecule in the cyclodextrin cavity results in efficient mitigation of malodour.
- the malodour binding process occurs during drying, and low molecular weight polyols can be added to the composition to enhance the formation of cyclodextrin inclusion complexes, especially in the case where the malodour molecule is too small to form a stable inclusion complex.
- cyclodextrins Another disadvantage of cyclodextrins is the tendency of these carbohydrate- derived materials to become sticky at low water levels or with decreasing water activity. This can lead to, for example, an undesirable “tacky” feeling on the skin. Finally, as is usually the case with aqueous carbohydrate solutions, aqueous cyclodextrin solutions must be preserved against micro-organism invasion using significant amounts of preservatives.
- WO 2014/077642 describes a composition comprising cucurbit[7]uril for use in odour removal and provides some evidence that odour is complexed with the cucrbituril.
- WO 2018/115822 relates to cucurbiturils, to a process of manufacturing said cucurbiturils and the use of said cucurbiturils in particular in consumer and industrial products, and in industrial processes.
- WO 2017/141029 relates to the use of compositions comprising cucurbiturils in counteracting malodour.
- GB 2556619 relates to stable suspension compositions comprising cucurbiturils for use in counteracting malodour.
- WO 2014/077641 discloses a composition for removing an odour molecule and releasing a fragrant molecule, the composition including a complex of cucurbituril and a fragrant molecule.

- malodour refers to unpleasant odours which are frequently encountered in everyday life and have a variety of origins.
- Typical malodours include odours that emanate from uncontrolled industrial activity, from human and pet body such as perspiration and excretion, from kitchen and food processing, from tobacco smoke, and from mould.
- Some of the most disturbing malodour for the human being are sweat; faecal; urine; wet pet; cooking odours, especially garlic, cabbage, fish and onion; and the like.
- Malodours may also emanate from the fatty acid and fatty acid derivatives present in consumer products, for example in soaps, detergents, shampoos, and conditioners.
- malodours are those produced by depilatory creams (sulphur compounds). All of these malodours are particularly pungent.
- the cucurbiturils as described for component Z2) of the detergent compositions according to the invention may be used to counteract a broad range of malodour molecules.
- malodour counteraction or “malodour counteracting” is considered as equivalent to “malodour suppression”, “malodour mitigation” or “malodour neutralization”.
- the result is a significant decrease of the intensity of the malodour perception by any person exposed to the source of the malodour.
- the intensity of odours is generally measured by using the Labelled Magnitude Scale (LMS), a definition of which can be found in Green BG, Shaffer GS and Gilmore MM 1993, Derivation and evaluation of a semantic scale of oral sensation magnitude with apparent ratio properties, Chemical Senses. 18(6):683-702.
- LMS Labelled Magnitude Scale
- the scale encompasses the following strength attributes: Barely Detectable, Weak, Moderate, Strong, Very Strong and Strongest Imaginable.
- a “significant decrease” means that the intensity attribute of the malodour, after application of the cucurbiturils, is Weak or Barely Detectable.
- a linear scale may be used, extending for example from 0 (no intensity perceived) and 10 (highest intensity perceived).
- Odour intensity scores are preferably obtained by a panel of several people.
