Definitions

  • the present invention is in the field of hard surface cleaning compositions.
  • it relates to a foamble hard surface cleaning composition providing long-lasting cleaning and hydrophobicity to a surface.
  • hard surface cleaning involves steps like, dosing an aliquot of a cleaning product on a surface, applying it with an implement, such as sponge, brush, wipe, scrub and rinsing with water.
  • Hard surfaces particularly like, toilet bowls, bathroom tiles or wash basin are continuously in contact with water, they are prone to scaling, microbial growth and deposition of dirt.
  • a cleaning product provides a cleaning performance, which sustains for a longer period, thereby reduces requirement of frequent cleaning and subsequently reduces consumer efforts.
  • One of the ways to deliver long-lasting cleaning benefit is by depositing a layer of a hydrophobic material on a surface while cleaning. It reduces water retention on the surface and thus reduces the accumulation of scaling, dirt deposition and microbial growth.
  • US 2019/0375871 A1 describes copolymers obtainable form free-radical copolymerisation at least of the following components: (a)cationic monomers selected from the group consisting of cationic (meth)acrylamide monomers and diallyl dimethyl ammonium chloride, (b)polyethylene glycol macromonomers, and (c)uncharged acrylamide monomers.

  • Foam is an air-liquid mix, it covers a significantly larger surface area compared to similar dosage of liquid product. Foam clings to a surface and prevents run off, thus reducing the dosage of a product. Further, it retains on the surface leading to increase contact time, thus provides improve cleaning. Further, a product in foam format may be dispensed directly on the surface, thus easing out cleaning process. It is desired that the composition is applied on a hard surface in foam format or as cleaning foam. It is also desired that the cleaning foam stays on or clings to the surface for a longer period providing sufficient contact time and thereby improves cleaning efficacy.

Ex-10 to 12 are within the scope of the present invention, whereas Ex-1 B to 1C are comparative examples. Ex 10 to 12 generated a foam volume in the range 170 to 200 millilitre measure by Bartsch method. Evaluation
  • Each example was evaluated for delivering hydrophobicity to a surface. It was measured in terms of the amount of water retained post wash on a ceramic tile. Ceramic tiles (10 cm x 15 cm) were procured and pre-treated with 20% by weight citric acid solution for 2 hours. Followinged by the tiles were washed with water, rubbed with calcite powder using the scotch bright scrubber and finally cleaned with water. The tiles were allowed to dry. Often new tiles contain a surface coating provided by the manufacturers for improved shine. Such coating may interfere in the evaluation; hence they were pre-treated in said manner to remove such coating (if present).
  • Each tile was treated with one of the examples, by applying and brushing with a toilet brush and allowed to dry for 30 min.
  • the tile was washed with water to remove product residue.
  • each tile was left under running tap water for 2 minutes to wash off dust or any residue. Each tile was then placed onto a platform resting at 45° angle mimicking surface of a toilet bowl. 50 ml of tap water was poured on the tile. Water was allowed to drain from the tile for 30 seconds. Post this, the water retained on the tile was wiped using a preweighed tissue paper. The difference in weight of the tissue paper before and after wiping each tile was recorded and summarised below.

Abstract

La présente invention se rapporte au domaine des compositions de nettoyage de surfaces dures. En particulier, l'invention concerne une composition aqueuse moussante de nettoyage de surface dure qui fournit un nettoyage de longue durée et est avantageuse du point de vue de l'hygiène. La composition comprend de 0,1 à 10 % en poids d'un composé d'ammonium quaternaire ; de 0,1 à 10 % en poids d'un tensioactif amphotère comprenant de l'oxyde d'amine et/ou de la cocamidopropyl bétaïne ; de 0,1 à 20 % en poids d'acide ; et un copolymère comprenant : un monomère cationique choisi parmi le chlorure de 2-(acryloyloxy)éthyl triméthylammonium, le chlorure de [2-(acryloylamino)éthyl] triméthylammonium, le méthosulfate de [2-(acryloyloxy)éthyl] triméthylammonium, le chlorure ou méthosulfate de [2-(méthacryloyloxy)éthyl] triméthylammonium, le chlorure de [3-(acryloylamino)propyl] triméthylammonium, le chlorure de [3-(méthacryloylamino)propyl] triméthylammonium (MAPTAC), le chlorure de diallyl diméthylammonium (DADMAC) ; un monomère acrylamide; et au moins un monomère choisi parmi l'éther de polyéthylène glycol vinyloxybutyl, l'éther de polyéthylène glycol-co-polypropylène glycol vinyloxybutyl, le (méth)acrylate de polyéthylène glycol-co-polypropylène glycol, l'acide acrylique, l'acide méthacrylique, l'acide 2-acrylamido-2-méthylpropane-sulfonique et/ou son sel, le pH de la composition étant dans la plage de 1 à 4 à 20 °C, la composition fournissant un volume de mousse d'au moins 140 millilitres tel que mesuré par le procédé Bartsch. L'invention concerne en outre un produit de nettoyage comprenant la composition contenue dans un récipient avec un déclencheur de mousse qui distribue une mousse de nettoyage lors de l'utilisation.
