Abstract

The present invention relates to the use of polyamidohydroxamates in washing and cleaning agents to improve cleaning performance, in particular with regard to stains containing polymerizable dyes.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A washing or cleaning agent comprising builder, surfactant selected from the group consisting of non-ionic, anionic, cationic and amphoteric surfactants, and from 0.05 wt. % to 2 wt % polyamidohydroxamate having an average molar mass from 1000 g/mol to 100,000 g/mol; wherein the polyamidohydroxamate is obtained by radical polymerization of one of the monomers:
CH 2 ═CR 1 —C(O)—N(OH)—R 2 ;  a.)

CH 2 ═CR 1 —X—C(O)—N(OH)—R 2 ;  b.)

CH 2 ═CR 1 —C(O)—N(R 3 )-A-C(O)—N(OH)—R 2 ;  c.)

CH 2 ═CR 1 —C(O)—N(A-C(O)—N(OH)—R 2 ) 2 ; and  d.)

CH 2 ═CR 1 —C(O)—N(R 3 )-A-CR 41 (B—C(O)—N(OH)—R 2 ) 2 ;  e.)

wherein R 1 denotes hydrogen or an alkyl group having 1 to 3 C atoms, R 2 , R 3 and R 4 independently of one another denote hydrogen or an alkyl, aryl, alkylaryl or arylalkyl group having 1 to 20 C atoms, X denotes O-A, O—C(O)-A or C(O)—O-A and A and B independently of one another denote an alkylene group having 1 to 12 C atoms; and wherein the agent comprises no hydrogen peroxide, substances yielding hydrogen peroxide, bleach activators, and/or bleach catalysts;
and wherein the polyamidohydroxamate additionally contains further ethylenically unsaturated monomers having no amidohydroxamate functionality.

2. A method for treating fabric wherein the fabric is contacted with a liquid washing agent comprising polyamidohydroxamates.
