Definitions
- This invention concerns improvements in or relating to the cleaning of materials. It deals in particular with a process for the cleaning of fibrous materials, both natural and synthetic, as well as woven, plaited or like fabrics manufactured therefrom, including especially carpets and other floor coverings.
- carpets cleaned by this method using the foam of common sulphated and sulphonated detergent substances such as sodium fatty alcohol sulphates and sodium alkylarylsulphonates, are susceptible to very rapid resoiling.
- carpets are particularly liable to soiling by virtue of their use as floor I coverings, but in the case under discussion the tendency to resoiling ismuch accentuated by the persistent, slightly damp residuum left behind after removal of the dry residue of these detergents, which promotes the pick-up of fresh dirt.
- rapid resoiling can also perhaps be attributed sometimes to the build-up upon the fibres of electrostatic charges which attract dirt particles.
- the sulphosuccinic acid derivative(s)) concerned may be included either singly or in any desired combination, and it is in fact preferred to use a combination of two or more sulphosuccinic acid derivatives of the above general formula.
- EXAMPLE 2 3 parts by weight of the sodium salt of lauric alcohol sulphate are dissolved in 90 parts by weight of hot water followed by 7 parts by weight of the sodium salt of a fatty acid alkylolamide sulphosuccinic acid half-ester. The resultant aqueous 10% detergent solution was then formulated as an aerosol, which was sprayed on to the covering of a couch. The resultant dry foam was then removed by sponging. Excellent cleansing was thus achieved, and no damp residue was observable after cleaning.
- EXAMPLE 3 4 parts by weight of sodium dodecylbenzene sulphonate and 6 parts by weight of the sodium salt of the sulphosuccinic acid half-ester of lauric acid monoethanolamide are mixed together, then dissolved by stirring in 90 parts by weight of hot water to yield a 10% aqueous detergent solution. This solution was used to clean carpets and showed excellent cleaning power. The cleaned fibres dried completely without retaining any moist residue favour able to resoiling.
- EXAMPLE 4 5 parts by weight of sodium dodecyl benzene sulphonate, 2.5 parts by weight of the sodium salt of the sulphosuccinic acid half-ester of myristic acid monoisopropanolamide and 2.5 parts by weight of the sodium salt of the sulphosuccinic acid half-ester of lauryl alcohol were mixed with 90 parts by weight of water and heated until completely dissolved. The resultant 10% aqueous solution was used to clean a carpet formed of polyamide fibres, and showed excellent cleaning power. The cleaned fibres dried completely, without retaining any moist residue favourable to resoiling.
- a process for cleaning natural and synthetic fibrous materials comprising subjecting said materials to treatment with a shampoo capable of drying to a powdery residue, said residue being removed after drying by a subsequent mechanical procedure as by brushing or by vacuum suction, in which the shampoo is an aqueous solution of a detergent composition consisting essentially of %30% of a compound selected from the group consisting of the sodium salt of the sulfosuccinic acid half ester of cocoanut oil fatty alcohols, the sodium salt of the sulfosuccinic half ester of lauric acid monoethanolamide, the sodium salt of the sulfosuccinic acid half ester of myristic acid monoisopropanolamide and the sodium salt of the sulfosuccinic acid half ester of lauryl alcohol or mixtures thereof and 30%70% of a compound from the group consisting of the sodium salt of sulfated cocoanut oil fatty alcohols, sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium dodecylbenzene
- the detergent composition consists of a mixture of the sodium salt of the sulfosuccinic acid half ester of cocoanut oil fatty alcohols and the sodium salt of sulfated cocoanut oil fatty alcohols.
- a process as defined in claim 1 in which the detergent composition consists of a mixture of the sodium salt of the sulfosuccinic half ester of lauric acid monoethanolamide and sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate.
- a process for cleaning natural and synthetic fibrous materials comprising subjecting said materials to treatment with a shampoo capable of drying to a powdery residue, said residue being removed after drying by a subsequent mechanical procedure as by brushing or by vacuum suction, in which the shampoo is an aqueous solution containing from l0%15% of a detergent composition consisting essentially of 40%50% of a compound selected from the group consisting of the sodium salt of the sulfosuccinic half esters of cocoanut oil fatty alcohol, the sodium 'salt of the sulfosuccinic half ester of lauric acid monoethanolamide, the sodium salt of the sulfosuccinic acid half ester of myristic acid monoisopropanolamide, and the sodium salt of the sulfosuccinic acid half ester of lauryl alcohol or mixtures thereof, the remainder of the detergent composition being selected from the group consisting of the sodium salt of sulfated cocoanut oil fatty alcohols, sodium lauryl sulf
