Abstract

The present invention relates generally to cleaning compositions and, more specifically, to cleaning compositions containing a polyetheramine that is suitable for removal of stains from soiled materials.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A cleaning composition comprising:
from about 1% to about 70%, by weight of the composition, of a surfactant; and
from about 0.1% to about 10% of a polyetheramine of Formula (I):

wherein each A 1 group is independently selected from the group consisting of a saturated or unsaturated, straight or branched alkylene radical and a cycloalkylene radical, each of R 1 -R 4 is independently selected from the group consisting of H, a straight or branched alkyl, and a cycloalkyl, n is from about 1 to about 200, at least one of the A 1 groups is

wherein each A 2 group is independently selected from the group consisting of a saturated or unsaturated, straight or branched alkylene radical and a cycloalkylene radical, each of R 13 -R 22 is independently selected from H, a linear or branched C 1 -C 12 alkyl, or a cycloalkyl, and p is from about 0 to about 13; and at least one of the A 1 groups is:

2. The cleaning composition of claim 1 wherein said polyetheramine of Formula (I) further comprises at least one A 1 group selected from:

wherein q is 0 or 1; or

3. The cleaning composition of claim 1 wherein said polyetheramine of Formula (I) further selected from: comprises at least one A 1 group selected from:

wherein R 5 is selected from a linear or branched C 1 -C 12 alkyl or a cycloalkyl;

wherein each of R 6 -R 11 is independently selected from H, a linear or branched C 1 -C 12 alkyl, or a cycloalkyl and m is from about 2 to about 13;

wherein R 12 is a linear or branched C 1 -C 12 alkyl, or a cycloalkyl and m is from about 2 to about 13;

wherein q is 0 or 1; or

4. The cleaning composition of claim 1 wherein said polyetheramine of Formula (I) further comprises at least one A 1 group selected from:

wherein m is from about 2 to about 13.

5. The cleaning composition of claim 1 wherein in said polyetheramine of Formula (I), each of R 1 -R 4 is H.

6. The cleaning composition of claim 1 wherein in said polyetheramine of Formula (I), each of R 1 -R 4 is independently selected from the group consisting of H, butyl, ethyl, methyl, propyl, and phenyl.

7. The cleaning composition of claim 1 wherein in said polyetheramine of Formula (I), n is from about 2 to about 10.

8. The cleaning composition of claim 1 wherein in said polyetheramine of Formula (I), n is from about 3 to about 5.

9. The cleaning composition of claim 1 wherein in said polyetheramine of Formula (I) at least one of the A 1 groups is selected from:

wherein R 5 is selected from a linear or branched C 1 -C 12 alkyl or a cycloalkyl;

wherein each of R 6 -R 11 is independently selected from H, a linear or branched C 1 -C 12 alkyl, or a cycloalkyl and m is from about 2 to about 13;

wherein R 12 is selected from H, a linear or branched C 1 -C 12 alkyl, or a cycloalkyl and m is from about 2 to about 13.

10. The cleaning composition of claim 1 , wherein said polyetheramine has a weight average molecular weight of about 290 to about 900 grams/mole.

11. The cleaning composition of claim 1 further comprising from about 0.0001% to about 1% by weight of enzyme.

12. The cleaning composition of claim 1 further comprising from about 0.1% to about 10% by weight of an additional amine, wherein said additional amine is selected from oligoamines, triamines, diamines, or a combination thereof.

13. A method of pretreating or treating a soiled fabric comprising contacting the soiled fabric with the cleaning composition of claim 1 .
