Dimensionally stable alkaline cleansing agents of low density, and a process for their preparation
First Claim
1. A process for the preparation of a dimensionally stable alkaline cleansing agent of low density, said agent comprising2 to 50% by weight of alkali metal phosphate,2 to 50% by weight of a silicate and1 to 60% by weight of alkali metal hydroxide,alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate or mixtures thereof,which process comprises foaming 0.25 to 10% by weight, on the same weight basis as the listed ingredients a phosphoric acid partial ester, selected from the group consisting of phosphoric acid monoester, phosphoric acid diester or mixtures thereof having been obtained by reaction of a phosphorylating agent with an organic hydroxy compound, with water in a weight ratio of (1:
- 2) to (1;
80), using intensive stirring, incorporating into the foam further components selected from alkali metal phosphate, a silicate, alkali metal hydroxide, alkali metal carbonate and alkali metal bicarbonate, using stirring and kneading, respectively, converting the resulting mixture to moldings and allowing the moldings to set for 0.5 to 15 hours.

Abstract
Dimensionally stable alkaline cleansing agents of low density consist at least of 2 to 50% by weight of alkali metal phosphates, 2 to 50% by weight of silicates and 1 to 60% by weight of alkali metal hydroxides and/or alkali metal carbonates or bicarbonates and additionally contain 0.25 to 10% by weight of phosphoric acid partial esters.
These cleansing agents are prepared by first foaming phosphoric acid partial esters with water in a weight ratio of (1:2) to (1:80), using intensive stirring. When the remaining components have been incorporated into the foam, using stirring or kneading, the resulting mixture is converted to moldings. The moldings are allowed to set for 0.5 to 15 hours.

8. A dimensionally stable alkaline cleansing agent of low density, which comprises:
-
2 to 50% by weight of alkali metal phosphate 2 to 50% by weight of a silicate 1 to 60% by weight of alkali metal hydroxide, alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate, or mixtures thereof, and 0.25 to 10% by weight of a phosphoric acid partial ester selected from the group consisting of phosphoric acid monoester, phosphoric acid diester or mixtures thereof having been obtained by reaction of a polyphosphoric acid with an organic hydroxy compound, said cleansing agent disintegrating 0.5 to 2 minutes after having been introduced into water and dissolving speedily therein.

9. A dimensionally stable alkaline cleansing agent of low density, which comprises:
-
2 to 50% by weight of alkali metal phosphate 2 to 50% by weight of a silicate 1 to 60% by weight of alkali metal hydroxide, alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate, or mixtures thereof, and 0.25 to 10% by weight of a phosphoric acid partial ester selected from the group consisting of phosphoric acid monoester, phosphoric acid diester or mixtures thereof having been obtained by reaction of diphosphorus pentoxide with an organic hydroxy compound, said cleansing agent disintegrating 0.5 to 2 minutes after having been introduced into water and dissolving speedily therein.

10. A foamed, molded solid alkaline cleansing agent which is dimensionally stable in the dry state, comprising:
-
0.25 to 10% by weight of phosphoric acid partial ester which is a phosphoric acid monoester, phosphoric acid diester or mixture thereof, said phosphoric acid partial ester being combined and stirred with sufficient water to form a foam, and, incorporated into said foam, 2 to 50% by weight of alkali metal phosphate, 2 to 50% by weight of a silicate, 1 to 60% by weight of alkali metal hydroxide, alkali metal carbonate, alkali metal bicarbonate, or mixture thereof, said foam having been molded and permitted to set to form a foamed molded solid cleansing agent which is dimensionally stable in the dry state but disintegrates 0.5 to 2 minutes after having been introduced into water and dissolves in said water, the density of said foamed molded solid being lower as compared to an unfoamed molded solid with the same ingredients except for substitution of water for the phosphoric acid partial ester. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13)
