Effect of Surfactant Systems,Alcohol Types,and Salinity on Cold-Water Detergency of Triacylglycerol Semisolid Soil. Part II

Our prior work found that detergency of coconut oil was relatively poor using C_14-15-8PO-SO₄Na alone but showed promising improvement with the presence of linear intermediate-chain alcohols (C7–C9 alcohols) in the surfactant formulation. The maximum detergency exceeded 90% removal using 0.1 w/v% C_14-15-8PO-SO₄Na/0.2 w/v% 1-octanol/4 w/v% NaCl (final optimized surfactant system) at 10 °C. The current work thus seeks to further investigate surfactant formulations capable of providing improved detergency performance. Different 50% linear anionic extended surfactant structures (LC_14-15-8PO-SO₄Na, LC_14-15-8PO-3EO-SO₄Na, and LC_14-15-8PO-7EO-SO₄Na) were compared with the branched C_14-15-8PO-SO₄Na previously studied. Detergency of coconut oil using C_14-15-8PO-SO₄Na at 8 w/v% NaCl (S*) still performed more effectively than these new surfactant systems. The addition of octanol as a detergency additive was further studied, and it showed that S* reduced from 8 w/v% NaCl to 4 w/v% NaCl for 1-octanol and to 2 w/v% NaCl for 2-octanol and 2-ethyl-hexanol in the C_14-15-8PO-SO₄Na surfactant formulation. Coconut oil removal significantly improved detergency from roughly 49% for no alcohol with 8 w/v% NaCl, to 83% for 2-ethyl-hexanol with 2 w/v% NaCl, to 95% for 1-octanol with 4 w/v% NaCl, and to 98% for 2-octanol with 2 w/v% NaCl. Further studies on octanol concentration showed that decreasing 1-octanol from 1.2% (90 mM) to 0.2% (15.3 mM) and 2-octanol from 1.2% (90 mM) to 0.5% (38.5 mM) still maintained detergency over 90% removal. In this work, cold-water detergency was found to correlate with low interfacial tension above the melting point, improved wetting of the semisolid soil, and oil solubilization in surfactant micelles.     

Optimized Microemulsion Systems for Detergency of Vegetable Oils at Low Surfactant Concentration and Bath Temperature

Triglycerides and vegetable oils are amongst the most difficult oils to remove from fabrics due to their highly hydrophobic nature; this is all the more challenging as cold water detergency is pursued in the interest of energy efficiency. Recently, extended surfactants have produced very encouraging detergency performance at ambient temperature, especially at low surfactant concentration. However, the salinity requirement for extended surfactants was excessive (4–14%) and there is limited research on extended‐surfactant‐based microemulsions for cold water detergency (below 25 °C). Therefore, extended‐surfactant‐based microemulsions are introduced in this study for cold temperature detergency of vegetable oils with promising salinity and surfactant concentration. The overall goal of this study is to explore the optimized microemulsion formulations with low surfactant and salt concentration using extended surfactant for canola oil detergency at both 25 and 10 °C. It was found that microemulsion systems achieved good performances (higher than those of commercial detergents) corresponding to IFT value 0.1–1 mN/m with the surfactant concentration as low as 10 ppm and 4% NaCl at 25 °C, and as low as 250 ppm and 0.1% (1000 ppm) NaCl at 10 °C. In addition, microemulsion systems were investigated with a different salt (CaCl₂, or water hardness, versus NaCl) at 10 °C, demonstrating that 0.025% CaCl₂ (250 ppm) can produce good detergency; this is in the hardness range of natural water. These results provide qualitative guidance for microemulsion formulations of vegetable oil detergency and for future design of energy‐efficient microemulsion systems.     

Performance and properties of nonionic surfactants from linear secondary alcohols

Surfactants based on the linear secondary alcohols provide a new source of biodegradable detergents. The nonionic surfactants of these alcohols are discussed in relationship to their surfactant properties and performance in detergent formulations. The performance properties in detergent formulations are defined by the results of detergency and foam stability tests. The surfactant properties presented are viscosity, surface tension, wetting and alkaline color stability. The above properties of the nonionic surfactants from the linear secondary alcohols have been compared to the properties of the less degradable nonylphenol nonionics and to the nonionic surfactants from the linear alkylphenol, oxo alcohol and Ziegler alcohol hydrophobes.     

Detergency of Vegetable Oils and Semi‐Solid Fats Using Microemulsion Mixtures of Anionic Extended Surfactants: The HLD Concept and Cold Water Applications

In spite of the increasing interest in cold temperature detergency of vegetable oils and fats, very limited research has been published on this topic. Extended surfactants have recently been shown to produce very promising detergency with vegetable oils at ambient temperature. However, the excessive salinity requirement (4–14 %) for these surfactants has limited their use in practical applications. In this work, we investigated the mixture of a linear C₁₀–18PO–2EO–NaSO₄ extended surfactant and a hydrophobic twin‐tailed sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate surfactant for cold temperature detergency of vegetable oils and semi‐solid fats. Four vegetable oils of varying melting points (from ?10 to 28 °C) were studied, these were canola, jojoba, coconut and palm kernel oils. Anionic surfactant mixtures showed synergism in detergency performance compared to single surfactant systems. At temperatures above the melting point, greater than 90 % detergency was achieved at 0.5 % NaCl. While detergency performance decreased at temperatures below the melting point, it was still superior to that of a commercial detergent (up to 80 vs. 40 %). Further, results show that the experimental microemulsion phase behaviors correlated very well with predictions from the hydrophilic–lipophilic deviation concept.     

Improved cold-water detergency of malodourous soil correlating with hydrophilic–lipophilic deviation concept

The persistence of sebum after low-water-temperature washing can contribute to malodor and microbial growth during subsequent use; thus, this work focuses on improved sebum removal. The detergency of sebum at various hydrophobic–lipophilic deviation (HLD) values was performed using 0.1 w/v% C_12-13-8PO-SO₄Na and C₈-4PO-1EO-SO₄Na at 1:1 molar ratio. The detergency of synthetic sebum on 87/13 polyester/spandex was relatively poor (70% removal) at HLD = 0. Various additives (heptanol, dipropylene glycol n-butyl ether, decyltrimethyl ammonium bromide or sodium benzoate) were explored and it was found that none of them could facilitate sebum removal on the 87/13 polyester/spandex surface. On the other hand, adding low molecular weight primary amines (ethylene diamine, or monoethanolamine [MEA]) in the surfactant system without salt showed sebum removal of 70%–80% depending on the amine molecule. Adding MEA as a detergency additive with salt appeared to achieve good detergency (>80% removal) at all studied HLD numbers between −1.0 and 1.1 and the maximum detergency (approximately 90% removal) was observed at the optimum formulation (HLD = 0). The formulation pH with added MEA decreased from 11 to roughly 9. Detergency performance with added MEA was not dependent on pH within the studied basic conditions. The principal cold water sebum removal mechanism was found to be detachment of solid sebum fractions, dispersed in the detergent bath or floating on the bath surface.     

Studies of the Formation and Stability of Urea Inclusion Compounds

Abstract

A study was undertaken to determine the relative ease of formation and stability of straight-chain primary and secondary alkanols capable of forming urea inclusion compounds. The compounds studied were 1-pentanol, 1-hexanol, 2-hexanol, 3-hexanol, 1-heptanol, 1-octanol, 3-octanol, 4-octanol, 1-nonanol, 4-nonanol, 5-nonanol, 1-decanol, 1-undecanol, and 1-dodecanol. 1-Heptanol was the shortest alcohol that formed an inclusion compound by the procedure employed. The ease of formation of a straight-chain alcohol was proportional to the number of uninterrupted methylene groups (—CH₂—) present. The ease of urea inclusion compound formation generally decreases as the functional group approaches the center of the chain. These conclusions were based on X-ray powder diffraction measurements and the weight of recovered products under equilibrium conditions.     

Detergency by surfactant/cosurfactant systems

The influence of amphiphilic additives on phase transitions and detergency of nonionic surfactant was examined to solve low temperature detergency problems and to reduce the amount of surfactants necessary to achieve good cleaning results. Optimum detergency correlates to the formation of the lamellar liquid crystalline L_α-phase and to the intermediate maximum of the phase-inversion temperature curves. Medium chain alkanols showed as optimum additives which improved low temperature detergency and allowed a reduction of the amount of surfactants necessary. However, fatty acids were not effective, and low degree ethoxylates of fatty alcohols were less effective cosurfactants. The interrelations found could be transferred to solve practical washing problems.     

Green Synthesis,Characterization, and Properties of Acyl Lysine,Serine, Threonine,and Methionine Derived from Three Types of Natural Oils

The development of environmentally benign products has been the subject of growing interest in the field of surfactant chemistry. Acyl amino acid surfactants bearing lysine, serine, threonine, and methionine residues were synthesized using natural oils extracted from coconut, palm kernel, and soybean as acyl donors. The chemical structures were confirmed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC/MS) and infrared (IR) spectra. Their surface activities, ion-specific effects, detergency, and foam properties were studied systematically. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) values depend significantly on amino acid and oil types and follow the orders: (i) Lys > Thr ≈ Ser > Met and (ii) Coconut ≈ Palm kernel > Soybean oil. Interestingly, the ion-specific effects showing that the γ_CMC value decreases with increasing counterion size and hydrophobicity were observed, and the results were consistent with the famous Hofmeister series. The detergency ability of acyl amino acid surfactants is better than multiple traditional surfactants in distilled water. Although the detergency ability of our products for oil-soiled swatches decreased significantly in hard water, this problem was solved by the C-Lys-Na/AES mixed system showing excellent synergistic effects. Excellent foamability and foam stability were achieved for acyl threonine and serine bearing hydroxyl groups on their headgroups, suggesting that the packing of these surfactants at the air–water interface was assisted by hydrogen bonding.     

Optimization of nonionic/anionic surfactant blends for enhanced oily soil removal

Previously reported results for alcohol ethoxylate surfactants have shown that optimum removal of both nonpolar and sebum- like liquid soils from polyester/cotton fabric occurs at the phase inversion temperature (PIT) of the surfactant- water- soil system. A similar correlation between phase inversion and optimum detergency has been identified for detergent systems containing mixtures of nonionic and anionic surfactants such as alcohol ethoxylates and alcohol ethoxysulfates. Experimental techniques other than direct detergency studies are described which allow determination of the optimum nonionic/ anionic surfactant ratio for removal of a particular soil at a specified temperature. In addition, implications of these results for development of temperature- insensitive detergent formulations containing alcohol ethoxylates are discussed.     

Tuning the polydispersity of alcohol ethoxylates for enhanced oily soil removal

Commercially available alkyl alcohol ethoxylates have a broad distribution of ethylene oxide (EO) units and also a somewhat narrower distribution of alkyl chain length. Generally, the purer the surfactant sample (narrower distribution), the better is its detergency performance, and detergency peaks at the phase inversion temperature (PIT) for a given oil. However, in real detergency processes this may not hold true since soils are typically mixtures of several oily components, and temperature variations are significant. Therefore, if a polydispersity index (PDI) of ethoxylates is defined as the ratio of weight average EO moles to number average EO moles in the sample, then it is conceivable that an optimal PDI might be obtained. We compared the detergency of hexadecane for pentaethylene glycol monododecyl alcohol (C₁₂EO₅) samples in a broad PDI range, using an oil-soluble dye. While detergency at 55°C (PIT of hexadecane with C₁₂EO₅) decreases monotonically with increasing creasing PDI, average detergency over a 20°C temperature range around the PIT tends to show a maximum at PDI of ca. 1.1 (narrow-range ethoxylate). Similarly, for a mixture of undecane/hexadecane/tetracosane (30∶50∶20 w/w/w) for which the average PIT is approximately the same as that of hexadecane detergency at 55°C shows a maximum as a function of PDI at a value of ∼1.37 (broad-range ethoxylate). All detergency results are in general agreement with the reverse trends in oil/water interfacial tension and suggest that, having decided the optimal EO moles for a given application based on PIT, one can further improve the performance of alcohol ethoxylates in real detergency processes by tuning their polydispersity.     

Enhanced triolein removal using microemulsions formulated with mixed surfactants

In previous work, a microemulsion-based formulation approach yielded excellent laundry detergency with hydrophobic oily soils hexadecane and motor oil. In this work, the same approach is used in detergency of triolein, which is a model triglyceride, some of the most difficult oils to be removed from fabric. The linker concept was applied in formulation of the microemulsion system. Three different surfactants were used: (i) dihexyl sulfosuccinate, an ionic surfactant with a moderate hydrophile-lipophile balance (HLB); (ii) secondary alcohol ethoxylate, a lipophilic nonionic surfactant with a very low HLB; and (iii) alkyl diphenyl oxide disulfonate (ADPODS), a hydrophilic anionic surfactant with a very high HLB. The phase behavior and interfacial tension (IFT) of the surfactant systems were determined with different concentrations of ADPODS. The results indicate that as the HLB of the system increases, a higher salinity is required to shift the phase transition from Winsor Type I to Type III to Type II. The three formulations at different salinities were used in detergency experiments to remove triolein from polyester/cotton sample fabric. The results showed that there were two peaks of maximum detergency in the range of salinity from 0.1% to 10% NaCl. The higher the hydrophilicity of the system, the higher the salinity required for maximum detergency. The results of the dynamic IFT and the detergency performance from two rinsing methods lead to the hypothesis that one of these maxima in detergency results from a spreading or wetting effect. The other maximum in detergency is believed to be related to ultralow IFT associated with oil/water middle-phase microemulsion formation. Triolein removal exceeding 80% was attained, validating the microemulsion approach to detergency.     

Laundry Detergency of Solid Nonparticulate Soil or Waxy Solids: Part II. Effect of the Surfactant Type

In this work, methyl palmitate with a melting point around 30°C was used as a model of waxy soil. Its detergency was evaluated with a hydrophilic surface (cotton) or a hydrophobic surface (polyester) using different surfactants: alcohol ethoxylate (EO9), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), methyl ester sulfonate (MES), methyl ester ethoxylate (MEE), and two extended surfactants (C_12,14-10PO-2EO-SO₄Na and C_12,14-16PO-2EO-SO₄Na). The detergency efficiency at a 0.2 wt.% surfactant and 5 wt.% NaCl gradually increased while redeposition gradually decreased with increasing washing temperature in most studied surfactant solutions; this was observed both above and below the melting point of methyl palmitate on both studied fabrics. If the methyl palmitate was heated above the melting point when deposited on the fabric, it was better able to penetrate into the fabric matrix as compared to deposition below the melting point, resulting in poorer detergency for heated deposition, particularly for washing temperatures lower than the melting point. Among the surfactants studied, the nonionic surfactant (EO9) showed the highest detergency efficiency (73–94%) at any washing temperature especially on the polyester fabric. For washing temperatures below the melting point, detergency performance correlated well with the contact angle of surfactant solution on the solid methyl palmitate surface for all studied surfactants when salinity was varied. In this work, conditions resulting in the highest detergency below the melting point corresponded to the highest detergency above the melting point, suggesting this as a systematic approach to formulating below the melting point of the soil. Charge of particles or fabric was not observed to be important to the detergency mechanism, but steric factors resulting from surfactant adsorption were observed to be important mechanistic factors in waxy solid detergency.     

A comparison of surfactants derived from alcohols based on petrochemical and oleochemical sources

Samples of lauryl-range alcohols derived from palm kernel oil, coconut oil and ethylene (Ziegler) were derivatized into alcohol sulfates and alcohol ether sulfates (2 moles of ethylene oxide adduct). Physical properties and performance characteristics for earch surfactant were evaluated both individually and in light-duty liquid (LDL) dish-washing formulations. The slight differences observed in the physical and performance properties of the surfactants and their formulations were assignable to slight differences the individual alcohol, alcohol sulfate and alcohol ether sulfate samples employed in this study. The magnitude and type of variation found in the samples resulted from normal production variation and not from any properties inherent to the nature of the alcohol source. We therefore conclude that alcohol sulfates, alcohol ether sulfates and LDLs formulated from them exhibit identical physical property and performance characteristics, regardless of whether the original alcohol was manufactured from petrochemical or eleochemical sources.     

Surface activity of mixtures of narrow-range distributed alcohol oxyethylates and sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate

Surface and interfacial tension, emulsion inversion temperature, and detergency were determined for mixtures of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate and narrow-range distributed alcohol C₁₂−C₁₄ oxyethylates of different hydrophilicity. The mixtures of ionic and nonionic surfactants behave similarly to nonionic and ionic surfactants at the air/water and hydrocarbon/water interfaces, respectively. The air/water interface is mainly occupied by nonionic surfactant molecules. However, the interfacial tensions for mixtures of nonionic and ionic surfactants are similar to those of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate. Mixtures of narrow-range distributed oxyethylates and sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate have a higher detergency at 40°C than individual components.     

Correlation between Detergency of Different Oily and Solid Non-Particulate Soils and Hydrophilic–Lipophilic Deviation

This research examined the correlation between the detergency of soils with varying equivalent alkane carbon numbers (EACN) and hydrophilic–lipophilic deviation (HLD) values. The detergency of oily soils with EACN ranging from 5.2 to 16.6 was evaluated using C₁₀-4PO-SO₄Na as a primary surfactant system and a 1:1 binary mixture of C₁₀-4PO-SO₄Na and AOT as a confirmatory surfactant system (with 65/35 polyester/cotton at 25°C). These surfactant systems were characterized using HLD concepts which showed that C₁₀-4PO-SO₄Na was more hydrophilic (had a higher negative Cc value) than that of the mixed surfactant system. Detergency of the selected soils was evaluated at different salinities corresponding to HLD ranging from negative to positive values. The results showed that detergency of all soils increased with increasing salinity (starting with an HLD = −3.0 (Winsor Type I microemulsion)), reached the maximum at widely different optimum salinity (S*) but at an identical HLD value of zero (optimum Type III), and then decreased with further increasing salt levels corresponding to positive HLD values (Type II). The preferred HLD range from −3.0 to 0.0 showed detergency levels exceeding 80% removal with interfacial tension values (IFT) below 1 mN m⁻¹ for all oily soils studied. Detergency of octadecane (EACN = 18, solid at 25°C) was further conducted and demonstrated that performing detergency at HLD = −3.0 to 0.0 likewise revealed superior soil removal (over 80%) versus systems with HLD values outside this range. Thus, this work highlighted the utility of using the HLD approach in designing surfactant formulations for detergency of soils with widely varying EACN.     

Phase behavior and detergency study of lauryl alcohol ethoxylates with high ethylene oxide content

Nonionic surfactants such as fatty alcohol ethoxylates have been extensively used in many detergent applications, because of their high calcium ion tolerance, low critical micelle concentrations, and mildness. Although ethoxylates containing high ethylene oxide (EO) content (EO>10 moles) score higher than their low-FO counterparts on many of these desired properties, they have not been studied adequately in the context of detergency, primarily because their cloud points (CP) are higher than normal wash temperatures, typically >100°C, and thus cannot be measured. However, once the CP are manipulated appropriately using salting-out electrolytes, these surfactants can offer certain distinct advantages in terms of their molecular and phase structure. We have studied the phase structure and clouding behavior of tetradecyl ethylene-oxide mono dodecyl alcohol (C₁₂EO₁₄), a broad-range ethoxylate, as a function of the concentrations of various electrolytes. We found that, beyond a certain critical concentration, the CP decreases monotonically with increasing salt concentration. For sodium salts of various anions, the CP depression is inversely proportional to the lyotropic number of the anion. Similarly, for chloride salts of various cations, CP depression is inversely proporitional to the lyotropic number of the cation However, the effect of changing anion is stronger than that of changing cation. A micrograph of a water penetration scan at room temperature indicates the presence of isotropic L₁; hexagonal, isotropic L₂; and solid phases with increasing surfactant concentration. As is the case with low-FO nonionics, a maximum in detergency of model oily soils was found to correlate well with the minimum in oil/water interfacial tension when plotted vs. temperature. Ross Miles foam height increases with increasing concentration of salt.     

Examination of the parameters governing oily soil removal from synthetic substrates

The rate of removal of mineral oil soils from model polyester sub-strates by the roll-up mechanism shows a marked dependence on nonionic surfactant concentration even above the critical micelle concentration (cmc). Similarly, although the solid/water interfacial tension is observed to be constant, the equilibrium oil/water inter-facial tension in these systems consistently decreases as the nonionic surfactant concentration is increased. The dependence of removal time and oil/water interfacial tension on surfactant concentration above the cmc is most pronounced for nonionic surfactants having relatively high cmc. At a given concentration, surfactants exhibiting the lowest equilibrium oil/water interfacial tension generally provide the most effective soil removal, suggesting that the reported depen-dence of removal time on surfactant concentration is related to the commensurate lowering of the oil/water interfacial tension. Nonyl phenol ethoxylates perform exceptionally well with mineral oil on polyester substrates because of the combination of a low oil/water interfacial tension and high solid/water adhesion tension. Regardless of surfactant structure, mineral oil on Teflon FEP maintains a high contact angle in the water because the solid/oil interfacial tension is less than the solid/water interfacial tension. Oil removal in such systems occurs only by an inefficient necking and drawing process. Oleyl alcohol displays a high contact angle in the water on both Teflon FEP and Mylar substrates for reasons similar to that of mineral oil on Teflon FEP. Partial oil removal occurs from both substrates in selected built systems, presumably because a low oil/ water interfacial tension promotes necking and drawing. Given sufficient time, unremoved oils develop a liquid crystalline phase which results in slow oil removal via dispersion. Triolein soils also possess a relatively low solid/oil interfacial tension and similarly exhibt a high contact angle (in water) on both Teflon FEP and Mylar substrates in unbuilt surfactant systems. Builder addition lowers the oil/water interfacial tension and thereby prompts necking and drawing action.     

Microemulsion formation and detergency with oily soils: I. Phase behavior and interfacial tension

The ultimate objective of the project was to investigate the relationship between microemulsion phase behavior and detergency for oily soils. In this study, surfactant phase behavior was evaluated for hexadecane and motor oil as model oily soils. Producing microemulsions with these oils is particularly challenging because of their large hydrophobic character. To produce the desired phase behavior we included three surfactants with a wide range of hydrophilic/lipophilic character: alkyl diphenyl oxide disulfonate (highly hydrophilic), dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate (intermediate character), and sorbitan monooleate (highly hydrophobic). This mixed surfactant was able to bridge the hydrophilic/lipophilic gap between the water and the oil phases, producing microemulsions with substantial solubilization and ultralow interfacial tension. The effects of surfactant composition, temperature, and salinity on system performance were investigated. The transition of microemulsion phases could be observed for both systems with hexadecane and motor oil. In addition, the use of surfactant mixtures containing both anionic and nonionic surfactants leads to systems that are robust with respect to temperature compared to single-surfactant systems. Under conditions corresponding to “supersolubilization”, the solubilization parameters and oil/microemulsion interfacial tensions are not substantially worse than at optimal condition for a middle-phase system, so a middle-phase microemulsion is not necessary to attain quite low interfacial tensions. A potential drawback of the formulations developed here is the fairly high salinity (e.g., 5 wt% NaCl) needed to attain optimal middle-phase systems. The correlation between interfacial tension and solubilization follows the trend predicted by the Chun-Huh equation.
