Definitions
- This invention relates to detergent compositions comprising more than one enzyme as well as methods of making and using such detergents.
- IPCOM000200739D it is disclosed that uniform enzyme granule distribution can be improved by incorporating two or more enzymes combined in one co-granule.
- Each enzyme will then be present in more granules securing a more uniform distribution of enzymes in the detergent. This also reduces the physical segregation of different enzymes due to different particle sizes.
- interaction between enzymes in an enzyme cogranule can lead to loss of enzyme activity, in particular when one of the enzymes is protease. This problem is particularly acute in detergent compositions comprising low levels of typical strong builders i.e. zeolite and phosphate builders.
- the present invention relates to a detergent composition
- a detergent composition comprising (a) a multi-enzyme co-granule; (b) less than 10 wt% zeolite (anhydrous basis); and (c) less than 10 wt% phosphate salt (anhydrous basis), wherein said enzyme co-granule comprises from 10 to 98 wt% moisture sink component.
- the invention also relates to a method of treating and/or cleaning a surface, preferably a fabric surface comprising the steps of (i) contacting said surface with the detergent composition as claimed and described herein in an aqueous wash liquor, (ii) rinsing and/or drying the surface.

Abstract
Detergent compositions are described having more than one enzyme, in particular having a multi-enzyme co-particle as well as methods of making and using such detergents. The compositions also have low levels of zeolite and phosphate builders and a moisture sink to minimize interaction between enzymes.
Description
- This invention relates to detergent compositions comprising more than one enzyme as well as methods of making and using such detergents.
- There is increasing pressure on natural resources, especially energy and water and also demand on use of petrochemicals continues to grow. Detergent compositions comprising enzymes have been known for many years and offer the opportunity to deliver outstanding cleaning, care and freshness benefits from detergents particularly in low water and/or low temperature washes, while reducing the need to rely so heavily on petrochemical-based materials. Such a formulation approach does bring with it considerable challenges associated with how to deliver consistent outstanding cleaning from products that need to be stable on shelf for many months in an affordable manner. This problem is particularly acute in warmer parts of the world. In IP.com disclosure IPCOM000200739D it is disclosed that uniform enzyme granule distribution can be improved by incorporating two or more enzymes combined in one co-granule. Each enzyme will then be present in more granules securing a more uniform distribution of enzymes in the detergent. This also reduces the physical segregation of different enzymes due to different particle sizes. However, for detergent compositions stored under conditions of high temperature and/or humidity, interaction between enzymes in an enzyme cogranule can lead to loss of enzyme activity, in particular when one of the enzymes is protease. This problem is particularly acute in detergent compositions comprising low levels of typical strong builders i.e. zeolite and phosphate builders.
- The present invention relates to a detergent composition comprising (a) a multi-enzyme co-granule; (b) less than 10 wt% zeolite (anhydrous basis); and (c) less than 10 wt% phosphate salt (anhydrous basis), wherein said enzyme co-granule comprises from 10 to 98 wt% moisture sink component.
- The invention also relates to a method of treating and/or cleaning a surface, preferably a fabric surface comprising the steps of (i) contacting said surface with the detergent composition as claimed and described herein in an aqueous wash liquor, (ii) rinsing and/or drying the surface. Preferably the temperature of the aqueous liquor is from 5 - 25°C and preferably the aqueous liquor comprises from 0.1g/l to 3g/l of surfactant.
- As used herein "detergent composition" means consumer and institutional products, including but not limited to cleaning and/or treatment compositions, particularly cleaning compositions for laundry, dishwashing, and hard surface cleaning products, other cleaners, and cleaning systems all for the care and cleaning of inanimate surfaces, as well as fabric conditioner products and other products designed specifically for the care and maintenance of fabrics. Such detergent composition are generally intended to be used or consumed in the form in which they are sold. Such products include laundry and rinse additive and/or care, hard surface cleaning and/or treatment including floor and toilet bowl cleaners. Preferably the compositions of the invention are laundry or dish-washing detergents, most preferably laundry detergents. Typically the compositions of the invention are solid i.e. in granular or powder-form, which may optionally be incorporated into a unit-dose detergent composition such as a tablet or pouch which may be single or multi-compartment. However, they may be liquid, gel or paste-form. In a pouch the composition of the invention will be present within a water-soluble film. Where the pouch is multi-compartment, the composition of the invention will be present in one or more compartments. Further compositions, not in accordance with the invention may be provided in one or more further compartments of the multi-component pouch. All of such products which are applicable may be in standard, concentrated or even highly concentrated form even to the extent that such products may in certain aspect be non-aqueous.
- As used herein, articles such as "a" and "an" when used in a claim, are understood to mean one or more of what is claimed or described. As used herein, the terms "include", "includes" and "including" are meant to be non-limiting. As used herein, the term "solid" includes granular, powder, bar and tablet product forms. Unless otherwise noted, all component or composition levels are in reference to the active portion of that component or composition, and are exclusive of impurities, for example, residual solvents or by-products, which may be present in commercially available sources of such components or compositions. All percentages and ratios are calculated by weight unless otherwise indicated. All percentages and ratios are calculated based on the total composition unless otherwise indicated.
- The multi-enzyme co-granule comprises at least two enzymes, or at least three or four or more enzymes, preferably selected from the group consisting of first-wash lipases, cleaning cellulases, xyloglucanases, perhydrolases, peroxidases, lipoxygenases, laccases, hemicellulases, proteases, care cellulases, cellobiose dehydrogenases, xylanases, phospholipases, esterases, cutinases, pectinases, mannanases, pectate lyases, keratinases, reductases, oxidases, phenoloxidases, ligninases, pullulanases, tannases, pentosanases, lichenases glucanases, arabinosidases, hyaluronidase, chondroitinase, amylases, and mixtures thereof. Preferably the co-granule comprises (a) one or more enzymes selected from the group consisting of first-wash lipases, cleaning cellulases, xyloglucanases, perhydrolases, peroxidases, lipoxygenases, laccases and mixtures thereof. Preferred enzymes from group (a) are first wash lipases. In addition the co-granule preferably comprises (b) one or more enzymes selected from the group consisting of hemicellulases, proteases, care cellulases, cellobiose dehydrogenases, xylanases, phospholipases, esterases, cutinases, pectinases, mannanases, pectate lyases, keratinases, reductases, oxidases, phenoloxidases, ligninases, pullulanases, tannases, pentosanases, lichenases glucanases, arabinosidases, hyaluronidase, chondroitinase, amylases, and mixtures thereof. Preferably the co-granule comprises a protease enzyme.
- The co-granule may comprise for example at least two enzymes, for example including: (i) protease and amylase; (ii) portease and cellulase; (iii) protease and first wash lipase; (iv) cellulase an first wash lipase; (v) amylase and cellulase; or (vi) amylase and first wash lipase. Alternatively the co-granule may comprise at least three enzymes, for example including (i) protease, first wash lipase and cellulase; (ii) protease, amylase and cellulase; (iii) protease, amylase and first wash lipase; (iv) first wash lipase, amylase and cellulase. Alternatively, the co-granule may comprise at least four enzymes, for example including (i) protease, amylase, first wash lipase and cellulase; (ii) protease, amylase, first wash lipase and mannanase.
- The amount of total active enzyme protein incorporated into the co-granule is typically delivers from 0.2 to 1.0wt% active enzyme in the detergent composition.
- The moisture sink component is present in the co-granule in amounts of from 10 to 99 wt% of the co-granule. Preferably the moisture sink material is herein understood a material that in its anhydrous form can take water to become hydrated and it can easily give up the hydration water when it is placed in a drier or warmer environment. Preferably the moisture sink materials for use in the composition of the invention have a difference in density between the anhydrous and hydrated form of at least 0.8 g/cm3, more preferably at least 1 g/cm3 and especially at least 1.2 g/cm3. This difference in densities provides a mechanism to break particle:particle crystal bridges that have formed as a result of water condensing as the powder temperature fell below the dew point associated with that powder. As the temperature increases following a period of cooling (as in a temperature cycle), the hydrated material forming a crystal bridge between particles reverts to the anhydrous (or less hydrated) form. The higher crystal density associated with the anhydrous (or less hydrated) form provides a mechanism for breaking these crystal bridges due to the reduction in crystal volume. This allows that a period of low temperature does not negatively and permanently affect the structure of the powder and contributes to good handling properties of the composition.
- Preferably the moisture sink component is present in amounts from 30, 50 or even 60 wt% of the co-granule, up to 90 or 95 wt% based on the co-granule. Examples of suitable moisture sink components are capable of absorbing moisture.

Useful as hydratable salts are typically sodium, calcium, magnesium salts, preferably sodium salts of carbonate, chloride, citrate and sulphate and mixtures thereof. Anhydrous sodium carbonate may be preferred. Light sodium carbonate may be preferred.
- As examples of suitable clays are talc, calcite, kaolin, dolomite and bentonite. Preferred dessicated clays have a moisture content of from 0.1 to 20 wt% free moisture, more preferably from 0.1 to 15 or even 0.1 to 10 or even 5 wt% free moisture;
- Suitable as bio-filler is any water soluble or water insoluble agricultural by-product. Examples of water-insoluble agricultural by-products are described in
WO2007/147698 . Preferred bio-fillers have a moisture content of from 0.1 to 20 wt% free moisture, more preferably from 0.1 to 15 or even 0.1 to 10 wt% or even 5 wt% free moisture; - The particle size of the moisture sink component is preferably such that at least 90 wt% of the particles of moisture sink component have a diameter less than 700 or even less than 500 or 300 or 250 microns or even less than 100 microns.

- Suitable enzyme co-granules for use herein include those formed according to any of the below technologies:
- a) Spray dried products, wherein a liquid enzyme-containing solution is atomised in a spray drying tower to form small droplets which during their way down the drying tower dry to form an enzyme-containing particulate material. Very small particles can be produced this way (Michael S. Showell (editor); Powdered detergents; Surfactant Science Series; 1998; vol. 71; page 140-142; Marcel Dekker).
- b) Layered products, wherein the enzyme is coated as a layer around a pre-formed inert core particle, wherein an enzyme-containing solution is atomised, typically in a fluid bed apparatus wherein the pre-formed core particles are fluidised, and the enzyme-containing solution adheres to the core particles and dries up to leave a layer of dry enzyme on the surface of the core particle. Particles of a desired size can be obtained this way if a useful core particle of the desired size can be found. This type of product is described in e.g.
WO 97/23606 - c) Absorbed core particles, wherein rather than coating the enzyme as a layer around the core, the enzyme is absorbed onto and/or into the surface of the core. Such a process is described in
WO 97/39116 - d) Extrusion or pelletized products, wherein an enzyme-containing paste is pressed to pellets or under pressure is extruded through a small opening and cut into particles which are subsequently dried. Such particles usually have a considerable size because of the material in which the extrusion opening is made (usually a plate with bore holes) sets a limit on the allowable pressure drop over the extrusion opening. Also, very high extrusion pressures when using a small opening increase heat generation in the enzyme paste, which is harmful to the enzyme. (Michael S. Showell (editor); Powdered detergents; Surfactant Science Series; 1998; vol. 71; page 140-142; Marcel Dekker)
- e) Prilled products or, wherein an enzyme powder is suspended in molten wax and the suspension is sprayed, e.g. through a rotating disk atomiser, into a cooling chamber where the droplets quickly solidify (Michael S. Showell (editor); Powdered detergents; Surfactant Science Series; 1998; vol. 71; page 140-142; Marcel Dekker). The product obtained is one wherein the enzyme is uniformly distributed throughout an inert material instead of being concentrated on its surface. Also
US 4,016,040 andUS 4,713,245 are documents relating to this technique - f) Mixer granulation products, wherein an enzyme-containing liquid is added to a dry powder composition of conventional granulating components. The liquid and the powder in a suitable proportion are mixed and as the moisture of the liquid is absorbed in the dry powder, the components of the dry powder will start to adhere and agglomerate and particles will build up, forming granulates comprising the enzyme. Such a process is described in
