Description: DETERGENT COMPOSITION COMPRISING CATIONIC AMINES AND CELLULASE ENZYMES Technical Field The present invention relates to granular detergent compositions or components thereof containing cationic compounds with paniculate/ clay-soil removal/anti-redeposition properties and a cellulolytic enzyme for use in laundry and dish washing processes. Background to the Invention A particularly important property of a detergent composition is its ability to remove paniculate type soils from a variety of fabrics during' laundering. Perhaps the most important paniculate soils are the clay- type soils. Clay soil particles generally comprise negatively charged layers of aluminosilicates and positively charged cations (e.g. calcium) which are positioned between and hold together the negatively charged layers. A variety of models can be proposed for compounds which would have paniculate/ clay-soil removal properties. One model requires that the compound have two distinct characteristics. The first is the ability of the compound to adsorb onto the negatively charged layers of the clay particle. The second is the ability of the compound, once adsorbed, to push apart (swell) the negatively charged layers so that the clay particle loses its cohesive force and can be removed in the wash water. In addition to clay soil removal, there is a need to keep the removed soil in suspension during the laundering (or dish washing) cycle. Soil which is removed from the fabric and suspended in the wash water can redeposit on the surface of the fabric. This redeposited soil causes a dulling or "greying" effect which is especially noticeable on white fabrics. To minimise this problem, anti-redeposition agents can be included in the detergent composition. For example EP-B-111 965 disclose the use in detergents of cationic compounds, which have both clay-soil removal and anti-redeposition properties. US 4,659,802 and US 4,664,848 describe quaternized amines which have clay-soil removal and anti-redeposition properties and which can be used in combination with anionic surfactants. A model proposed for the anti-redeposition action of the positively charged anti-redeposition compounds is as follows. Adsorption of the positively charged molecule on the surface of clay particles in the wash water provides the dispersancy properties of the molecule. As more and more of these compounds adsorb onto the suspended soil, it becomes encased within a hydrophilic layer provided by the attached ethoxy units. As such the hydrophilically encased soil is prevented from redepositing on fabrics, in particular hydrophobic fabrics such as polyester, during the laundering cycle. Other detergent components frequently employed in detergents are cellulase and/or endolase enzymes. They are known to be employed in detergent compositions as softening aids. The cellulolytic enzymes are responsible for controlled catalytic removal of cellulose material, contained in fabrics. This is often referred to as 'depilling' of the fabric surface, which imparts fabric softness. Removal of clay-soils/ body-soils from fabrics is often not satisfactory. It has now been found that this problem can be caused by paniculate soils/ clays which are entrapped in the fibres of the fabric, particularly cellulose fibres, and which therefore are difficult to be removed from the fabric. The Applicants have now found that this problem can be ameliorated by inclusion of cellulolytic enzymes in a granular detergent composition (or component thereof), comprising cationic, (partially) quaternized ethoxylated (poly) amines which have clay-soil removal/anti-redeposition properties. Detergent compositions (or components thereof) employing both cationic quaternized ethoxylated (poly) amines and cellulolytic enzyme have been shown to deliver a surprisingly better cleaning and softening performance than that of detergent compositions employing either of the two components individually. A further advantage of the present invention is that the cleaning benefits can even be observed after the completion of only one wash cycle. All documents cited in the present description are, in relevant part, incorporated herein by reference.

Such method normally comprises cultivation of a host cell transformed with a recombinant DNA vector capable of expressing and carrying a DNA sequence encoding the cellulolytic enzyme in question, in a culture medium under conditions permitting the expression of the enzyme and recovering the enzyme from the culture.' Preferably, the cellulolytic enzyme is a fungal or bacterial cellulase component, i.e. of fungal or bacterial origin.

Typically, x 4- y 4- z is from 2 to about 40 and preferably from 2 to about 20. For short chain length polymers, x 4- y 4- z can range from 2 to 9 with from 2 to 9 N 4- centres and from 2 to 11 X groups. For long chain length polymers, x 4- y 4- z is at least 10, with a preferred range of from 10 to about 42. For the short and long chain length polymers, the M' groups are typically a mixture of from about 50 to 100% N 4- centres and from 0 to about 50% N centres. Preferred cationic polymers within this class are derived from the C2- C3 polyalkyleneamines (x 4- y 4- z is from 2 to 9) and polyalkyleneimines (x 4- y 4- z is at least 10, preferably from 10 to about 42). Particularly preferred cationic polyalkyleneamines and polyalkyleneimines are the cationic polyethy leneamines (PEA's) and polyethyleneimines (PEI's). These preferred cationic polymers comprise units having the general formula: ( R 2) d (R 2) d [M' [CH 2 — CH 2 M'] χ - [(CH 2 CH 2 0 '] n — X] 2 wherein R 2 (preferably methyl), M * , X, d, x, y, z and n are defined as before; a is 1 or 0. Prior to ethoxylation, the PEAs used in preparing cationic polymers of the present invention have the following general formula: [H 2 NJ a [CH 2 CH 2 N] χ [CH 2 CH 2 N] y -{CH 2 CH 2 NH 2 ] 2 H wherein x 4- y 4- z is from 2 to 9, and a is 0 or 1 (molecular weight of from about 100 to about 400). Each hydrogen atom attached to each nitrogen atom represents an active site for subsequent ethoxylation. For preferred PEAs, x 4- y 4- z is from about 3 to about 7 (molecular weight is from about 140 to about 310). These PEA's can be obtained by reactions involving ammonia and ethylene dichloride, followed by fractional distillation. The common PEA's obtained are triethylenetetramine (TETA) and tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA). Above the pentamines, i.e., the hexamines, heptamines, octamines and possibly nonamines, the cogenerically derived mixture does not appear to separate by distillation and can include other materials such as cyclic amines and particularly piperazines. There can also be present cyclic amines with side chains in which nitrogen atoms appear. See US Pat. No. 2,792,372 to Dickson, issues May 14, 1957, which describes the preparation of PEAs. The minimum degree of ethoxylation required for preferred clay soil removal/anti-redeposition performance can vary depending upon the number of units in the PEA. Where y 4- z is 2 or 3, n is preferably at least about 6. Where y 4- z is from 4 to 9, suitable benefits are achieved when n is at least about 3. For preferred cationic PEAs, n is at least about 12, with a typical range of about 12 to about 42. # The PEIs used in preparing the polymers of the present invention have a molecular weight of at least about 440 prior to ethoxylation, which represents at least about 10 units. Preferred PEIs used in preparing these polymers have a molecular weight of from about 600 to about 1800. The polymer backbone of these PEIs can be represented by the general formula: H ! -[- CH 2 CH 2 N -j - -f CH 2 CH 2 NH 2 ] Z wherein the sum of x, y, and z represents a number of sufficient magnitude to yield a polymer having the molecular weights previously specified. Although linear polymer backbones are possible, branch chains can also occur. The relative proportions of primary, secondary and tertiary amine groups present in the polymer can vary, depending on the manner of preparation. The distribution of amine groups is typically as follows: CH 2 CH 2 — NH 2 30% CH 2 CH 2 — NH- 40% Each hydrogen atom attached to each nitrogen atom of the PEI represents an active site for subsequent ethoxylation. These PEIs can be prepared, for example, by polymerizing ethyleneimine in the presence of a catalyst such as carbon dioxide, sodium bisulfite, sulfuric acid, hydrogen peroxide, hydrochloric acid, acetic acid, etc. Specific methods for preparing PEIs are disclosed in US Pat. No. 2, 182,306 to Ulrich et al., issued Dec. 5, 1939; US Pat No. 3,033,746 to Mayle et al., issued May 8, 1962; US Pat. No. 2,208,095 to Esselmann et al., issued July 16, 1940; US Pat.

As defined in the preceding formulas, n is at least about 3 for the cationic PEIs. However, it should be noted that the minimum degree of ethoxylation required for suitable clay soil removal/anti-redeposition performance can increase as the molecular weight of th PEI increases , " especially much beyond about 1800. Also, the degree of ethoxyalation for preferred polymers increases as the molecular weight of the PEI increases. For PEIs having a molecular weight of at least about 600, n is preferably at least about 12, with a typical range of from about 12 to about 42. For PEIs having a molecular weight of at least 1800, n is preferably at least about 24, with a typical range of from about 24 to about 42. D.

Additional classes of SRA's include: (I) nonionic terephthalates using diisocyanate coupling agents to link polymeric ester structures, see U.S. 4,201,824, Violland et al. and U.S. 4,240,918 Lagasse et al.; and (II) SRA's with carboxylate terminal groups made by adding trimellitic anhydride to known SRA's to convert terminal hydroxy 1 groups to trimellitate esters. With the proper selection of catalyst, the trimellitic anhydride forms linkages to the terminals of the polymer through an ester of the isolated carboxylic acid of trimellitic anhydride rather than by opening of the anhydride linkage. Either nonionic or anionic SRA's may be used as starting materials as long as they have hydroxyl terminal groups which may be esterified. See U.S. 4,525,524 Tung et al.. Other classes include: (III) anionic terephthalate-based SRA's of the urethane-linked variety, see U.S. 4,201,824, Violland et al.; Other optional ingredients Other optional ingredients suitable for inclusion in the compositions of the invention include perfumes, colours and filler salts, with sodium sulfate being a prefened filler salt. Near neutral wash pH dergent formulation While the detergent compositions of the present invention are operative within a wide range of wash pHs (e.g. from about 5 to about 12), they are particularly suitable when formulated to provide a near neutral wash pH, i.e. an initial pH of from about 7.0 to about 10.5 at a concentration of from about 0.1 to about 2% by weight in water at 20°C. Near neutral wash pH formulations are better for enzyme stability and for preventing stains from setting. In such formulations, the wash pH is preferably from about 7.0 to about 10.5, more preferably from about 8.0 to about 10.5, most preferably from 8.0 to 9.0. Preferred near neutral wash pH detergent formulations are disclosed to European Patent Application 83.200688.6, filed May 16, 1983, J.H.M. Wertz and P.C.E. Goffinet. Highly prefened compositions of this type also preferably contain from about 2 to about 10% by weight of citric acid and minor amounts (e.g., less than about 20% by weight) of neutralizing agents, buffering agents, phase regulants, hydrotropes, enzymes, enzyme stabilizing agents, poly acids, suds regulants, opacifiers, anti-oxidants, bactericides, dyes, perfumes and brighteners, such as those described in US Patent 4,285,841 to Barrat et al., issued August 25, 1981 (herein incorporated by reference). Form of the compositions The detergent component of the invention can be made via a variety of methods, including dry-mixing and agglomerating of the various compounds comprised in the detergent component. The detergent component preferably forms part of a detergent composiiton. The compositions in accordance with the invention can take a variety of physical forms including granular, tablet, flake, pastille and bar forms. The compositions are particularly the so-called concentrated granular detergent compositions adapted to be added to a washing machine by means of a dispensing device placed in the machine drum with the soiled fabric load. The compositions in accord with the present invention can also be used in or in combination with bleach additive compositions, for example comprising chlorine bleach. In general, granular detergent compositions in accordance with the present invention can be made via a variety of methods including dry mixing, spray drying, agglomeration and granulation. The quaternised clay-soil removal/ anti-redeposition agent in accord with the present invention can be added to the other detergent components by dry- mixing, agglomeration (preferably combined with a carrier material) or as a spray-dried component. The mean particle size of the components of granular compositions in accordance with the invention, comprising the water-soluble cationic clay-soil removal/anti-redeposition compounds, should preferably be such that no more that 15% of the particles are greater than 1.8mm in diameter and not more than 15% of the particles are less than 0.25mnϊ in diameter. Preferably the mean particle size is such that from 10% to 50% of the particles has a particle size of from 0.2mm to 0.7mm in diameter. The term mean particle size as defined herein is calculated by sieving a sample of the composition into a number of fractions (typically 5 fractions) on a series of sieves, preferably Tyler sieves. The weight fractions thereby obtained are plotted against the aperture size of the sieves. The mean particle size is taken to be the aperture size through which 50% by weight of the sample would pass. The bulk density of granular detergent compositions in accordance with the present invention typically have a bulk density of at least 600 g/litre, more preferably from 650 g/litre to 1200 g/litre. Bulk density is measured by means of a simple funnel and cup device consisting of a conical funnel moulded rigidly on a base and provided with a flap valve at its lower extremity to allow the contents of the runnel to be emptied into an axially aligned cylindrical cup disposed below the funnel. The funnel is 130 mm high and has internal diameters of 130 mm and 40 mm at its respective upper and lower extremities. It is mounted so that the lower extremity is 140 mm above the upper surface of the base. The cup has an overall height of 90 mm, an internal height of 87 mm and an internal diameter of 84 mm. Its nominal volume is 500 ml. To carry out a measurement, the funnel is filled with powder by hand pouring, the flap valve is opened and powder allowed to overfill the cup. The filled cup is removed from the frame and excess powder removed from the cup by passing a straight edged implement eg; a knife, across its upper edge. The filled cup is then weighed and the value obtained for the weight of powder doubled to provide a bulk density in g/litre. Replicate measurements are made as required. Laundry washing method Machine laundry methods herein typically comprise treating soiled laundry with an aqueous wash solution in a washing machine having dissolved or dispensed therein an effective amount of a machine laundry detergent composition in accord with the invention. By an effective amount of the detergent composition it is meant from lOg to 300g of product dissolved or dispersed in a wash solution of volume from 5 to 65 litres, as are typical product dosages and wash solution volumes commonly employed in conventional machine laundry methods. In a preferred use aspect a dispensing device is employed in the washing method. The dispensing device is charged with the detergent product, and is used to introduce the product directly into the drum of the washing machine before the commencement of the wash cycle. Its volume capacity should be such as to be able to contain sufficient detergent product as would normally be used in the washing method. The dispensing device containing the detergent product is placed inside the drum before the commencement of the wash, before, simultaneously with or after the washing machine has been loaded with laundry. At the commencement of the wash cycle of the washing machine water is introduced into the drum and the drum periodically rotates. The design of the dispensing device should be such that it permits containment of the dry detergent product but then allows release of this product during the wash cycle in response to its agitation as the drum rotates and also as a result of its contact with the wash water. To allow for release of the detergent product during the wash the device may possess a number of openings through which the product may pass. Alternatively, the device may be made of a material which is permeable to liquid but impermeable to the solid product, which will allow release of dissolved product. Preferably, the detergent product will be rapidly released at the start of the wash cycle thereby providing transient localised high concentrations of product in the drum of the washing machine at this stage of the wash cycle. Prefened dispensing devices are reusable and are designed in such a way that container integrity is maintained in both the dry state and during the wash cycle. Especially prefened dispensing devices for use with the composition of the invention have been described in the following patents; GB-B-2, 157, 717, GB-B-2, 157, 718, EP-A- 0201376, EP-A-0288345 and EP-A-0288346. An article by J.Bland published in Manufacturing Chemist, November 1989, pages 41-46 also describes especially prefened dispensing devices for use with granular laundry products which are of a type commonly know as the "granulette" . Another prefened dispensing device for use with the compositions of this invention is disclosed in PCT Patent Application No. W094/11562. Especially prefened dispensing devices are disclosed in European Patent Application Publication Nos. 0343069 & 0343070. The latter Application discloses a device comprising a flexible sheath in the form of a bag extending from a support ring defining an orifice, the orifice being adapted to admit to the bag sufficient product for one washing cycle in a washing process. A portion of the washing medium flows through the orifice into the bag, dissolves the product, and the solution then passes outwardly through the orifice into the washing medium. The support ring is provided with a masking anangemnt to prevent egress of wetted, undissolved, product, this anangement typically comprising radially extending walls extending from a central boss in a spoked wheel configuration, or a similar structure in which the walls have a helical form. Alternatively, the dispensing device may be a flexible container, such as a bag or pouch. The bag may be of fibrous construction coated with a water impermeable protective material so as to retain the contents, such as is disclosed in European published Patent Application No. 0018678. Alternatively it may be formed of a water-insoluble synthetic polymeric material provided with an edge seal or closure designed to rupture in aqueous media as disclosed in European published Patent Application Nos. 0011500, 0011501, 0011502, and 0011968. A convenient form of water frangible closure comprises a water soluble adhesive disposed along and sealing one edge of a pouch formed of a water impermeable polymeric film such as polyethylene or polypropylene. Packaging for the compositions Commercially marketed executions of the bleaching compositions can be packaged in any suitable container including those constructed from paper, cardboard, plastic materials and any suitable laminates. A prefened packaging execution is described in European Application No. 94921505.7.
