Title: Cleaning product

Description:
FIELD OF INVENTION 
     The present invention relates to a cleaning product. In particular, it relates to a cleaning product comprising a spray dispenser and a cleaning composition. The product makes the cleaning of dishware easier and faster. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     Traditionally manual dishwashing has been performed by filling a sink with water, adding a dishwashing detergent to create a soapy solution, immersing the soiled articles in the solution, scrubbing the articles and rinsing to remove the remaining soils and remove the suds generated from the soapy solution from the washed articles. Traditionally an entire load of soiled dishware has usually been washed in one go. Nowadays some users prefer to clean articles as soon as they have finished with them rather than wait until they have a full load. This involves washing a single article or a small number of articles at the time. The washing is usually performed under running water rather than in a full sink. The cleaning should be fast and involve minimum effort from the user. 
     Nowadays, a high number of users prefer to do the washing under the tap. This usually involves the use of a cleaning implement, such as a sponge. The user delivers detergent to the sponge. When the number of items to be cleaned is small, there is the risk of dosing more detergent than required, this will require the need for more rinsing for the dishware and the cleaning implement. Another disadvantage associated to this method, is that sometimes is required to mix the detergent with water in the sponge, this can slow down the cleaning process. 
     The level and type of soil found on dishware varies considerably depending on the use of the dishware. Dishware can be lightly soiled or can have hard to remove soils such as baked-, cooked- and/or burnt-on soils. It might be easier to design different products for different types/degrees of soils however this might not be very practical because the user would have to have a large number of dishwashing products. 
     When the cleaning of a lightly soiled article is done under running water, it is desirable that the cleaning is performed quickly and with minimum effort. Ideally, the product should be applied and then immediately rinsed obviating or reducing the need for scrubbing. 
     When articles are soiled with difficult to remove soils, it is desirable that the product facilitates the cleaning task by softening the well-attached soils. It is desirable that the softening takes place in a short time. In cases in which the soils are really tough it is common practice to soak the items before cleaning. The soaking time should be short. 
     Spray products are well liked by users. A sprayable composition for use in hand dishwashing should be easy to spray, deliver fast and long lasting suds, easy to rinse and at the same time should provide fast and good cleaning of a variety of soils. The composition should be such that when sprayed onto the dishware spreading to the surrounding atmosphere should be minimised or avoided. Spreading to the surrounding atmosphere can not only give rise to waste of the product but it can also have inhalation risks associated to it. 
     The object of the present invention is to facilitate cleaning, especially the manual dishwashing task, in particular by reducing the time and effort needed to achieve the cleaning. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     According to a first aspect of the invention, there is provided a cleaning product. The product is suitable for the cleaning of any kind of surfaces but preferably the product is a hand dishwashing cleaning product. The product comprises a spray dispenser and a cleaning composition. The composition is a foaming composition and it is suitable for spraying. The composition is housed in the spray dispenser. The “composition” of the cleaning product of the invention is herein sometimes referred to as “the composition of the invention”. 
     By “spray dispenser” is herein meant a container comprising a housing to accommodate the composition and means to spray that composition. The preferred spraying means being a trigger spray. The composition foams when it is sprayed. Foaming is a property that users associate with cleaning therefore it is important that the composition of the invention foams to send the user the signal that the composition is cleaning. 
     The composition of the invention comprises:
         i) from about 5 to about 15% by weight of the composition of a surfactant system; and   ii) from about 0.1 to about 15% by weight of the composition of an ester selected from the group consisting of :
           a) monoesters having the formula R1C═OOR2 wherein:   R1 is a linear of branched C1 to C4 alkyl;   R2 is a linear or branched C2 to C8 alkyl;   b) di- or tri-esters having the formula R1(C═OOR2)n wherein:   R1 is a saturated or unsaturated C2 to C4 alkyl;   R2 is independently selected from a linear or branched C2 to C8 alkyl;   n is 2 or 3;   c) benzylbenzoate; and   d) mixtures thereof.   
               

     Preferably, the composition comprises:
         i) from about 5 to about 15% by weight of the composition of a surfactant system; and   ii) from about 0.1 to about 15% by weight of the composition of an ester selected from the group consisting of:
           a) monoesters having the formula R1C═OOR2 wherein:
               R1 is a linear of branched C2 or C3 alkyl;   R2 is a linear or branched C3 or C4 alkyl;   
               b) di- or tri-esters having the formula R1(C═OOR2)n wherein:
               R1 is a saturated or unsaturated C2 to C4 alkyl;   R2 is independently selected from a linear or branched C3 or C4 alkyl;   n is 2;   
               c) benzylbenzoate; and   d) mixtures thereof.   
               

     The compositions of the invention provide very good and fast cleaning and it helps with the foaming of the product. 
     Preferably, the surfactant system and the ester are in a weight ratio of from about 5:1 to about 1:5, preferably from 3:1 to 1:2, most preferably 2:1 to 1:1. The surfactant system seems to help with the cleaning and foam generation. The ester helps with the speed of cleaning and with foam generation and stabilization. 
     Furthermore, the composition of the invention provides good cleaning, including cleaning of though food soils such as cooked-, baked- and burnt-on soils and good cleaning of light oily soils. The composition of the invention not only provides outstanding cleaning but also very fast cleaning, requiring reduced scrubbing effort by the consumer. Thus the product of the invention is especially suitable for cleaning dishware under the tap. When the dishware is only lightly soiled the composition of the invention provides very good cleaning with reduced scrubbing or in the absence of scrubbing. The dishware can be cleaned by simply spraying the composition followed by a rinse with water, optionally aided by a low force wiping action. 
     In the case of heavily soiled dishware the product of the invention is very good to facilitate the removal of the soil when the product is used to pre-treat the dishware. Pre-treatment usually involves leaving the soiled dishware with the neat product. 
     Preferably, the composition of the invention has a pH greater than 5 as measured at 10% solution in distilled water at 20° C. Compositions having a pH from6 to 8, present good chemical stability. Compositions having a pH from 8 to 12, most preferably from 10.5 to 11.5 provide very good grease cleaning. 
     Preferably, the composition of the invention has a pH from 8 to 12, the composition has a reserve alkalinity of from about 0.1 to about 1, more preferably from about 0.1 to about 0.5. Reserve alkalinity is herein expressed as grams of NaOH/100 ml of composition required to titrate product from a pH 10 to the pH of the finished composition. This pH and reserve alkalinity further contribute to the cleaning of tough food soils. 
     Compositions having a surfactant system comprising an anionic surfactant and at least one further surfactant have been found to be very good from a cleaning and sudsing viewpoint. They have also been found very good from a spray pattern view point. The presence of small droplets (and therefore the risk of inhalation) is minimized when the surfactant system of the composition of the invention comprises anionic surfactant. By “further surfactant” is herein meant a surfactant that is not an anionic surfactant or a non-ionic surfactant. Preferably the anionic surfactant is a sulfate surfactant or an alkyl sulfosuccinate. Preferred sulfate surfactants are an alkyl ethoxylate sulfate or a branched short chain alkyl sulfate. It has been found that alkyl ethoxylated sulfate with an average degree of ethoxylation from about 2 to about 4, more preferably about 3, performs better in terms of cleaning and speed of cleaning than other ethoxylate alkyl sulfate surfactants with a lower degree of ethoxylation. 
     By a “branched short chain alkyl sulfate” is herein meant a surfactant having a linear alkyl sulfate backbone, the backbone comprising from 4 to 8, preferably from 5 to 7 carbon atoms, substituted with one or more C1-C5 preferably C1-C3 alkyl branching groups in the C1, C2 or C3, preferably C2 position on the linear alkyl sulfate backbone. This type of anionic surfactant has been found to deliver strong grease cleaning as well as good foaming performance, especially immediate foaming performance upon spraying when the composition comprises amine oxide or betaine, preferably amine oxide as co-surfactant. Preferred branched short chain alkyl sulfate for use herein is a branched hexyl sulfate, more preferably 2-ethyl hexyl sulfate. The preferred alkyl sulfosuccinate herein is 2-ethylhexylsulfosuccinate. 
     Preferably, the at least one further surfactant is selected from the group consisting of betaine preferably cocoamidopropylbetaine, sulfobetaine preferably laurylhydroxysulfobetaine, amine oxide preferably C12-14 alkyldimethylamine oxide, and mixtures thereof. Amine oxide is the preferred further surfactant for use herein. The at least one further surfactant seems to help with the sudsing of the product. Particularly good performing products are those in which the anionic surfactant and the at least one further surfactant are present in a weight ratio of about 5:1 to about 1:5 preferably of about 3:1 to about 1:1, most preferably in a weight ratio from about 2:1 to about 1:1. When the anionic surfactant comprises an alkoxylated alkyl sulphate the preferred anionic surfactant:further surfactant weight ratio is from 3:1 to 2:1. When the anionic surfactant comprises a short chain branched alkyl sulphate surfactant the preferred anionic surfactant:further surfactant weight ratio is from 2:1 to 1:1. Especially preferred are compositions in which the further surfactant comprises amine oxide. The surfactant system can optionally further comprise a non-ionic surfactant, preferably selected from ethoxylated alcohols and alkyl glycerol ethers. 
     The composition of the invention can comprise glycol ethers selected from the group consisting of glycol ethers of Formula I: R1O(R2O)nR3, Formula II: R4O(R5O)nR6 and mixtures thereof wherein R1 is a linear or branched C4, C5 or C6 alkyl or a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl, R2 is ethyl or isopropyl, R3 is hydrogen or methyl and n is 1, 2 or 3, R4 is n-propyl or isopropyl, R5 is isopropyl, R6 is hydrogen or methyl and n is 1, 2 or 3 and mixtures thereof. It has been found that these glycol ethers further help not only with the speed of cleaning of the product but also with the cleaning, especially greasy soils cleaning. This does not seem to happen with glycol ethers having a different formula to Formula I and Formula II. 
     The composition of the invention can comprise an alcohol selected from the group consisting of: C4-C6 linear mono-alcohols, branched C4-C10 mono-alcohols having one or more C1-C4 branching groups, alkyl mono-glycerols, and mixtures thereof. The compositions of the invention comprising these alcohols provide very good and fast cleaning and it helps with the foaming of the product. 
     Mixtures of an alcohol, in particular a C4-C8 branched primary mono-alcohol with a glycol ether of Formula I: R1O(R2O)nR3, Formula II: R4O(R5O)nR6 or mixtures thereof wherein R1 is a linear or branched C4, C5 or C6 alkyl or a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl, R2 is ethyl or isopropyl, R3 is hydrogen or methyl and n is 1, 2 or 3, R4 is n-propyl or isopropyl, R5 is isopropyl, R6 is hydrogen or methyl and n is 1, 2 or 3 have also been found to provide an unexpected good cleaning and speed of cleaning. In particular mixtures with ethylhexanol especially 2-ethyl-1-hexanol, propylhexanol especially 2-propyl-1-heptanol, and methyl hexanol, in particular trimethyl hexanol especially 3,5,5 trimethyl-1-hexanol, have been found particularly good when they are part of a mixture, in terms of cleaning and speed of cleaning, especially mixtures of these alcohols with propyleneglycol n-butyl ether, dipropyleneglycol n-butyl ether, and mixtures thereof, especially dipropyleneglycol n-butyl ether. 
     The composition of the invention can further comprise an alcohol solvent selected from the group consisting of C1-C3 linear of branched mono alcohols, C1-C3 polyols and mixtures thereof, a glycol solvent selected from the group consisting of ethyleneglycol, propyleneglycol, polyethyleneglycol, polypropyleneglycol, and mixtures thereof, and/or a hydrotrope selected from the group consisting of sodium cumene sulphonate, sodium xylene sulphonate, sodium toluene sulphonate, and mixtures thereof.

The product of the invention is particularly suitable for the manual cleaning of dishware. 
     For the purpose of the present invention “dishware” encompasses all the items used to either cook or used to serve and eat food. 
     Cleaning Composition 
     The cleaning composition is preferably a hand dishwashing cleaning composition, preferably in liquid form. 
     Preferably the pH of the composition is greater than 5, preferably from 6 to 8, or from 8 to 12, preferably from 10.5 to 11.5, as measured at 20° C. and 10% concentration in distilled water.

     Reserve alkalinity is defined as the grams of NaOH per 100 g of composition required to titrate the test composition at pH 10 to come to the test composition pH. The reserve alkalinity for a solution is determined in the following manner. 
     A pH meter (for example An Orion Model 720A) with an Ag/AgCl electrode (for example an Orion sure flow Electrode model 9172BN) is calibrated using standardized pH 7 and pH 10 buffers. A 100 g of a 10% solution in distilled water at 20° C. of the composition to be tested is prepared. The pH of the 10% solution is measured and the 100 g solution is titrated down to pH 10 using a standardized solution of 0.1 N of HCl. The volume of 0.1N HCl required is recorded in ml. The reserve alkalinity is calculated as follows: 
       Reserve Alkalinity=ml 0.1N HCl×0.1 (equivalent/liter)×Equivalent weight NaOH (g/equivalent)×10
 
     Surfactant System 
     The cleaning composition comprises from about 5% to about 15%, preferably from about 6% to about 14%, more preferably from about 7% to about 12%, most preferably from about 8% to about 10% by weight thereof of a surfactant system. The surfactant system preferably comprises an anionic surfactant, more preferably a sulfate surfactant or a sulfosuccinate anionic surfactant. The system preferably comprises a further surfactant preferably selected from the group consisting of amphoteric surfactants, zwitterionic surfactants and mixtures thereof. The system can optionally comprise a non-ionic surfactant. 
     Alkyl sulfates are preferred for use herein, especially alkyl ethoxy sulfates; more preferably alkyl ethoxy sulfates with an average degree of ethoxylation from about 2 to about 5, most preferably about 3. Branched short chain alkyl sulfate surfactant are also preferred for use herein.

       Weight average of branching (%)=[( x 1*wt % branched alcohol 1 in alcohol 1+ x 2*wt % branched alcohol 2 in alcohol 2+ . . . )/( x 1+ x 2+ . . . )]*100 
     wherein x1, x2, are the weight in grams of each alcohol in the total alcohol mixture of the alcohols which were used as starting material for the anionic surfactant for the detergent of the invention.

     EXAMPLES 
     Test Methods 
     Oil Diffusion Test Method 
     The ability to diffuse through a layer of oil has been assessed for compositions comprising esters inside and outside of the scope of the product of the invention. 
     The ability of the compositions to penetrate oil was assessed by measuring the breakthrough time, using the following methodology: 35 gram of an aqueous solution containing 0.15% by weight of xanthan gum (supplied by Keltrol™ RD from CP-kelco) was poured into a glossy white ceramic dish plate (Supplied by Ikea—Item:S.Pryle #13781 diameter 26.5 cm). 
     Olive oil (Sold by Unilever under the Bertoli brand, item number L5313R H0756 MI0002) was dyed red through the addition of 0.05% by weight of red dye (Waxoline Red, red dye pigment supplied by Avecia), stirring for 1 hour in order to provide a homogeneous dye distribution. Then 2.5 grams of the dyed olive oil was delicately deposited onto the water surface thus forming a thin disk of oil layer. The oil disk diameter was measured to ensure that the diameter did not exceed a variation amongst the replicates of more than 20% from the average value. A drop of the cleaning composition was delicately deposited on to the oil layer, in the middle of the oil disk from a 5 ml Pasteur pipette (Supplied by VWR—Item: 5 ml #612-1684), from a height of less than 5 mm. The breakthrough time was measured as the time recorded from the deposition of the solution drop to the opening of the oil disk identified by the appearance of the water layer in the middle of the oil disk. 8 replicates were required per sample to calculate the average breakthrough time. 
     Composition: 
     A reference base was formulated through mixing of individual raw materials at normal lab conditions, on top of which 5% by weight of the composition of the ester to be tested was added.
