Description

CONTROLLED AVAILABILITY OF COMPONENTS OF FORMULATION, COMPOSITIONS AND LAUNDRY METHODS THAT USE THE SAME FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention discloses a method for the controlled availability of formulation components, such as organic catalysts, in a wash solution. More particularly, the present invention describes bleaching products and compositions containing said formulation components and washing methods employing said formulation components.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In recent years oxygen bleaching agents have become more popular in personal and home care products to facilitate the removal of stains and dirt. Bleaching agents are particularly desirable for their stain removal, dirty fabric cleaning, bleaching and hygiene properties, as well as for their inhibition of dye transfer. Oxygen bleaching agents have found acceptance in laundry products such as detergents, in automatic dishwashing products and cleaners "-á» * »« * of hard surfaces Oxygen bleaching agents, however, are somewhat limited in their effectiveness.Some disadvantages that are frequently encountered include damage to fabric color and damage In addition, oxygen bleaching agents tend to be extremely dependent on the temperature scale, so the colder the solution where they are used, the less effective the bleaching action will be. Oxygen bleaching in solution to be effective requires temperatures above 60 ° C. To solve the problem of temperature dependence mentioned above, a class of compounds known as "bleach activators" has been developed. bleaching, typically perhydrolyzable acyl compounds with a residue group such as oxybenzenesulfonate, react with the active oxygen group, typically hydrogen peroxide or its anion, to form a more effective peroxyacid oxidant. The peroxyacid compound subsequently oxidizes the stained or dirty substrate material. However, bleach activators are also somehow temperature dependent. Bleach activators are most effective at temperate water temperatures of around 40 ° C to about 60 ° C. At water temperatures of less than about 40 ° C, the peroxy acid compound loses some of its bleaching effectiveness.

Various attempts have been made as demonstrated in the US patent nos. 5,360,568, 5,360,569 and 5,370,826 all to Madison et al., To develop a bleaching system that is effective under lower temperature water conditions. However, the dihydroisoquinoline bleach boosters shown in these references, when combined with peroxygen compounds, undergo desiderated decomposition, particularly when in the presence of wash solution components. The US patent nos. 5,576,282 and 5,817,614 both to Miracle et al. show further attempts in the development of a bleaching system comprising organic catalysts which is effective under water conditions of lower temperature and which is safe for colors. However, the prior art has failed to show or teach the delayed (controlled) addition of formulation components, such as organic catalysts, in accordance with the present invention. By virtue of the aforementioned, researchers have been looking for a method to mitigate (or control) the decomposition of the organic catalyst, particularly before contact with the oxidizable spot. Accordingly, the need remains for an effective method that provides organic catalysts and compositions containing organic catalysts that provide effective bleaching even at lower water temperatures, which provides stability in unwanted organic catalyst decomposition and which maximizes the performance of the peracid in the wash cycle.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION This need is covered by the present invention wherein the methods for providing organic catalysts, especially bleach impeller compounds, bleaching species, modified amines, modified amine oxides, sulfonimines, phosphonimines, N-acylimines and / or thiodiazole dioxides are provided. Unlimited examples of the benefits provided by the organic catalyst administration methods of the present invention include: superior bleaching effectiveness even at lower water temperatures; prevention of decomposition of organic catalysts that generally occurs during pre-mixing periods prior to the addition of fabrics that require cleaning (eg, stained fabrics); peracid permission to perform bleaching on stained fabrics that require cleaning prior to the administration of organic catalysts to maximize the concentration of peracid with fabric stains; and descent of peracid concentrations by bleaching, thus reducing the level of organic catalyst decomposition by means of the presence of excessive peracid in the wash solution. ^^^^^ jg ^ & ^ aj In one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for washing a fabric that requires cleaning comprises the administration of an organic catalyst by means of a controlled availability method such as define Test Protocols I, II and / or III shown below, in conjunction with or without, preferably with, a peroxygen source for a wash solution containing the fabric. In another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a bleaching composition comprising an organic catalyst capable of becoming available (chemically available to interact with other compounds) by means of a controlled availability method as defined in Test Protocols I, II and / or III, shown below, for performing bleaching when provided to a washing solution, in conjunction with or without, preferably with, a source of peroxygen. In still another aspect of the present invention, a product is provided comprising an organic catalyst capable of becoming available (chemically available to interact with other compounds) by means of a controlled availability method as defined by Test Protocols I, II and / or III, shown below, for performing bleaching in the form of ink transfer inhibition when provided to a washing solution, in conjunction with or without, preferably with, a source of peroxygen. In yet another aspect of the present invention, a product is provided comprising an organic catalyst capable of becoming available (chemically available to interact with other compounds) by means of a controlled availability method as defined by Test Protocols I, II and / or III, shown below, to perform bleaching when provided to a washing solution, in conjunction with or without, preferably with, a peroxygen source, the product further includes instructions for using the organic catalyst to clean a fabric that so require, the instructions include the step of administering a quantity of the product comprising the organic catalyst, in conjunction with or without a peroxygen source, to a wash solution containing the fabric such that at least a majority of the said organic catalyst is administered by means of a means of administration to the washing solution after that the fabric is added to the washing solution. Surprisingly, it has been found that an available organic catalyst (chemically available to interact with other compounds) by means of a controlled availability method as defined by Test Protocols I, II and / or III, shown below, in a solution of wash that. contains a source of peroxygen and a fabric that requires cleaning provides an improved bleaching performance compared to an instantly available organic catalyst (chemically available to interact with other compounds) in the wash solution. By controlling the availability of the organic catalysts of the present invention in a wash solution containing a peroxygen source and a fabric by means of a controlled availability method as defined by Test Protocols I, II and / or III, shown below, the peroxygen / peracid source can bleach during the early stage of the wash cycle when its concentration is at the highest level, and at the same time exposure of the organic catalysts can be avoided. highest concentration level of the peroxygen / peracid source, thus reducing the organic catalyst decomposition. The organic catalysts can then be made available (chemically available to interact with other compounds, eg peracid) by means of a controlled availability method as defined by Test Protocols I, II and / or III, as shown below. . Once available in the wash solution, the organic catalysts can react with the remaining available peracid to form the oxygen transfer agents (bleaching species) that can oxidize the spots. This results in the added benefits of optimizing the peroxygen / peracid source and the organic catalysts. Without being limited by theory, organic catalysts, particularly bleach driving compounds, react with a peroxygen source, preferably a peracid, to form the oxygen transfer agents (bleaching species). Several routes of decomposition can lead to the decomposition of the bleach-driving compound or the oxygen transfer agent, leading to the decomposition products that can also react with the peroxygen / peracid source. Accordingly, the control of the availability of the organic catalysts, and in this way the control of the synchronization of the contact between the organic catalysts and any peroxygen / peracid source in a washing solution allows said peroxygen sources / percents present in the wash solution perform a maximum bleaching on selected spots of a fabric before coming into contact with the organic catalysts. Under typical washing conditions, since the peracid clots with the stain more slowly than the oxygen transfer agent, there is often oxygen available in the peracid form present at the end of the wash cycle. The oxygen available at the end of the wash cycle is at a lower concentration, which results in a lower bleaching index, and at the time of completion of the wash, results in the waste of the remaining peracid. Actually, as the wash cycle proceeds, the concentration (after the perhydrolysis is complete) begins to decrease due to peracid bleaching spots and stains. The bleaching performed by the peracid is relatively slow (from a kinetic point of view, especially at lower wash bath temperatures), and it is necessary to maximize the wash time and maximize the peracid concentration to maximize spot removal. It is important and necessary to allow a high peracid concentration to work on certain oxidizable stains, and subsequently allow the organic catalyst to work in a complementary group of oxidizable stains. It is known that the perished react quickly with organic catalysts that form a kind of bleach, which subsequently reacts rapidly with oxidizable spots. Accordingly, the object of the present invention is to provide: a method for administering an organic catalyst by means of a controlled availability method as defined by Test Protocols I, II and / or III, which demonstrates improved performance even in lower temperature solutions as well as being able to mitigate (or control) undesired decomposition and maximize peracid performance at an early stage of the wash cycle; a method for washing a fabric that needs to be cleaned by administering an organic catalyst in a controlled availability method as defined by Test Protocols I, II and / or III, shown below, for a wash solution that contains the cloth; a bleaching composition comprising an organic catalyst capable of becoming available by means of a controlled availability method as defined by Test Protocols I, II and / or III, shown below, for a wash solution that already contains a fabric which requires cleaned.

The phrase "macropolicíclico rigid ligand" is abbreviated "MRL" in some occasions as it is analyzed below. The amount used is an effective amount in a catalytic form, suitably about 1 ppb or more, for example up to about 99.9%, more typically about 0.001 ppm or more, preferably from about 0.05 ppm to about 500 ppm (in where "ppb" denotes parts per billion in weight and "ppm" denotes parts per million in weight). Appropriate transition materials for example MN are illustrated below. "Macropolycyclic" means an MRL that is a macrocycle and is polycyclic. "Polycyclic" means at least bicyclic. The term "rigid" as used in the present invention includes "having a superstructure" and "cross bridge". "Rigid" has been defined as the restricted inverse of flexibility, see D.H. Busch., Chemical Reviews., (1993), 23, 847-864, incorporated by reference. More particularly, "rigid" as used in the present invention means that the MRL must be determinably stiffer than a macrocycle ("macrocycle base") that is otherwise identical (having the same size and type of ring and number of atoms in the main ring) but lacking a superstructure (especially link portions or, preferably, cross bridge portions) found in MRL. In determining the comparative stiffness of macrocycles with and without superstructures, the practitioner will use the free form (not the metal union shape) of the macrocycles. Rigidity is well known to be useful when comparing macrocycles; Appropriate tools for determining, measuring or comparing stiffness include computational methods (see, for example, Zimmer, Chemical Reviews, (1995), 95 (38), 2629-2648 or Hancock et al., Inorganic Chimica Acta, (1989) , 164, 73-84 The preferred MRLs in the present invention are a special type of ultra-rigid cross-bridge ligands.A "cross-bridge" is illustrated non-limitingly in 1.11 below. is a portion of -CH2CH2.Connects N1 and N8 in the illustrative structure.For comparison, a bridge "on the same side" for example to be introduced one between N1 and N12 in 1.11, would not be enough to constitute a "cross bridge" and accordingly, it would not be preferred The appropriate metals in the complexes of rigid ligands include Mn (ll), Mn (lll), Mn (IV), Mn (V), Fe (ll), Fe (lll), Fe ( IV), Co (l), Co (ll), Co (lll), Ni (l), Ni (ll), Nl (lll), Cu (l), Cu (ll), Cu (lll), Cr ( ll), Cr (lll), Cr (IV), Cr (V), Cr (VI), V (ll) l), V (IV), V (V), Mo (IV), Mo (V), Mo (VI), W (IV), W (V), W (VI), Pd (ll), Ru ( ll), Ru (lll), and Ru (IV). Preferred transition metals in the instant transition metal bleach catalyst include manganese, iron and chromium. More generally, the MRLs (and the corresponding transition metal catalysts) in the present invention comprise, appropriately: (a) at least one macrocycle main ring comprising four or more heteroatoms; and (b) a non-metallic superstructure covalently connected capable of increasing the stiffness of the macrocycle, preferably selected from (i) a bridge structure, such as a linking portion; (i) a cross bridge superstructure, such as a cross bridge link portion; and (iii) combinations thereof. The term "superstructure" is used in the present invention as defined in the literature by Busch et al., See, for example, the articles by Busch in "Chemical Reviews". The preferred superstructures herein not only improve the stiffness of the base macrocycle, but also favor the bending of the macrocycle to coordinate a metal in a crack. The appropriate superstructures may be extraordinarily simple, for example, a link portion such as any of those illustrated in Formula A and Formula B may be used below.

Formula A wherein n is an integer, for example 2 to 8, preferably less than 6, typically 2 to 4, or Formula B wherein m and n are integers of about 1 to 8, more preferably of about 1 to 3; Z is N or CH; and T is a compatible substitute, for example, H, alkyl, trialkylammonium, halogen, nitro, sulfonate, or the like. The aromatic ring in 1.10 can be replaced by a saturated ring, in which the atom in Z that is connected to the ring can contain N; O, S or c. The appropriate MRLs are further illustrated in non-limiting manner by the following compound: Formula C This is an MRL according to the present invention which is highly preferred, cross-linked, substituted methyl (all tertiary nitrogen atoms) derivative of cyclam. Formally, this ligand is called 5,12-dimethyl-1, 5,8,12-tetraazabicyclo [6.6.2] hexadecane using the extended von Baeyer system.

The level of the builder can vary widely depending on the final use of the composition and its desired physical form.

• When present, the compositions will typically comprise at least about 1% of the detergency builder. The formulations Typically they will comprise from about 5% to about 50%, more typically from about 5% to about 30%, by weight, of the builder. Granulated formulations typically • 'will comprise from about 10% to about 80%, more typically from about 15% to about 50%, by weight, of the 15 detergency builder. Lower or higher levels of the detergency builder, however, does not mean that they will be excluded. Inorganic or P-containing builders include, but are not limited to, alkali metal, ammonium and alkanolammonium salts of polyphosphates (exemplified by tripolyphosphates, • 20 pyrophosphates, and vitreous polymeric meta-phosphates), phosphonates, phytic acid, silicates, carbonates (including bicarbonates and sesquicarbonates), sulphates, and aluminosilicates. However, non-phosphate builders are required in some locations. Importantly, the compositions in the present invention function surprisingly well even in the presence of so-called "weak" builders (as compared to phosphates) such as citrate, or in the so-called "under construction" situation that can occur with zeolite or 5 layered silicate builders. Examples of silicate builders are alkali metal silicates, particularly those having an SiO 2: Na 2 O ratio in the range of 1.6: 1 to 3.2: 1 and layered silicates, such as the layered sodium silicates described in 4,664,839 Rieck, issued on May 12, 1987. NaSKS-6 is the trademark for a crystalline layered silicate marketed by Hoechst (commonly abbreviated herein as "SKS-6"). Unlike zeolite builders, the Na SKS-6 silicate builder does not contain aluminum. NaSKS-6 has the shape of laye-Na2SiOs silicate morphology in layers. It can be prepared by 15 methods such as those described in German documents DE-A-3,417,649 and DE-A-3, 742,043. SKS-6 is a highly preferred layered silicate for use herein, but other layered silicates may be used, such as those having the general formula and H 2 O wherein M is a sodium or hydrogen, x is a number of 1.9 to 4, preferably 2, and y is 20 a number from 0 to 20, preferably 0. Several other layered silicates of Hoechst include NaSKS-5, NaSKS-7 and NaSKS-11, such as the alpha, beta and gamma forms. As noted above, the delta-Na2Si? 5 form (NaSKS-6 form) is more preferred for use herein. Other silicates can also vrf? n?? iiMÍi, ^ iai¡ Míiítr "i?,? r '» ...., ...? ..,? ^: ~? ........, ,, ". .,. &.;.. * "• -,.? ^ ^ ^,. be useful such as for example magnesium silicates, which can serve as a contrast enhancing agent in granulated formulations, as a stabilizing agent for oxygen bleach, and a compound of suppression control systems. Examples of carbonate builders are alkaline earth metal carbonates and alkali metal carbonates as described in German Patent Application No. 2,321,001 published November 15, 1973. Aluminosilicate builders are useful in the present invention. Aluminosilicate builders are of great importance in most commercial heavy duty granular detergent compositions, and can also be an important detergent builder ingredient in liquid detergent formulations. The aluminosilicate builders include those that have the empirical formula: [Mz (ZAIO2)?] XH2O where z and y are integers of at least 6, the molar ratio of zay is in the range of 1.0 to about 0.5, and x is a whole from about 15 to about 265. Useful aluminosilicate ion exchange materials are available. These aluminosilicates can be crystalline or amorphous in structure and can be naturally occurring aluminosilicates or synthetically derived. A method for producing aluminosilicate ion exchange materials is described in US 3,985,669, Krummel et al, SaSa issued October 12, 1976. Synthetic crystalline aluminosilicate ion exchange materials are available under the designations Zeolite A, Zeolite P (B), Zeolite MAP and Zeolite X. In an especially preferred embodiment, the material of crystalline aluminosilicate ion exchange has the formula: Na? 2 [(AIO2) 12 (SiO2) 12] xH2O where x is from about 20 to about 30, especially about 27. This material is known as Zeolite A. Dehydrated zeolites (x = 0 -10) can also be used. Preferably, the The aluminosilicate has a particle size of about 0.1-10 microns in diameter. Organic builders suitable for the purposes of the present invention include, but are not limited to, a wide variety of polycarboxylate compounds. As used herein, "poly carboxylate" refers to compounds having a plurality of carboxylate groups, preferably at least 3 carboxylates. The polycarboxylate builder can generally be added to the composition in acid form, but it can also be added in the form of a neutralized salt. When used in the form of salt, the 20 alkali metals, such as sodium, potassium and lithium, or alkanolammonium salts. Included among the polycarboxylate builders are a variety of useful material categories. An important category of polycarboxylate builders covers the r. & * > The r polycarboxylates, including oxydisuccinate, as described in US 3,128,287 Berg, issued April 7, 1964, US 3,635,830 Lamberti et al., Issued January 18, 1972, and US 3,936,448 Lamberti, issued February 3, 1976. See also "TMS / TDS" detergency builders of US 4,663,071 Bush et al., issued May 5, 1987. Suitable r polycarboxylates also include cyclic compounds, particularly compounds alicyclics, such as those described in 3,923,679 Rapko, issued December 2, 1975; US 4,158,635 Crutchfield et al., issued June 19, 1979; US 4,120,874 Crutchfield et al., issued October 17, 1978; and US 4,102,903 Crutchfield et al., Issued July 25, 1978. Other useful builders include r hydroxypolycarboxylates, copolymers of maleic anhydride with lene or vinylml r, 1,3,5-trihydroxy benzene-2,4, 6-hydroxy-polycarboxylate. -trisulfonic, and carboxymloxysuccinic acid, the various alkali metals, ammonium and substituted ammonium salts of polyacetic acid such as lenediamine tetraacetic acid and nitrilotriacetic acid, as well as polycarboxylates such as melific acid, succinic acid, oxydisuccinic acid, polymaleic acid, benzene acid 1, 3, 5-tricarboxylic, carboxymloxysuccinic acid, and soluble salts thereof. Citrate builders, for example, citric acid and soluble salts thereof (particularly sodium salt) are polycarboxylate builders of particular importance for heavy-duty detergent formulations because of their availability of renewable resources and their biodegradability. The citrates can also be used in granular compositions, especially in combination with zeolite and / or silicate layer improvers. Oxydisuccinates are also especially useful in said compositions and combinations. Also suitable in the bleaching compositions of the present invention are the 3,3-dicarboxy-4-oxa-1,6-hexanedioates and the relative compounds described in US Pat. No. 4,566,984, Bush, issued January 28, 1986. Useful succinic acid detergents include succinic Cs-C2o alkyl and alkenyl acids and salts thereof. A preferred compound of this type is dodecenylsuccinic acid. Specific examples of succinate builders include: lauryl succinate, myristylsuccinate, palmitylsuccinate, 2-dodecenylsuccinate (preferred), 2-pentadecenylsuccinate, and the like. Lauryl succinates are the preferred builders of this group, and are described in European patent application 86200690.5 / 0,200,263, published November 5, 1986. Other suitable examples of polycarboxylates are described in 4,144,226, Crutchfield et al., Issued April 13, 1986. of March of 1979 and in the USA 3,308,067, Diehl, issued on March 7, 1967.-See also Diehl patent US 3,723,322. Fatty acids, for example, C12-C18 monocarboxylic acids, can also be incorporated into the compositions alone or in combination with the aforementioned builders, especially the citrate and / or succinate builders, to provide the activity of additional detergency builder. Such use of fatty acids will generally result in a decrease in suppression, which should be taken into account by the formulator. In situations where phosphorus-based builders can be used, and especially in the formulation of bars used for hand-washing operations, the various alkali metal phosphates, such as the well-known sodium tripolyphosphates, sodium pyrophosphate can be used. and sodium orthophosphate. Phosphonate builders such as ethane-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonate and other known phosphonates can also be used (see, for example, patents 3,159,581; 3,213,030; 3,422,021; 3,400,148 and 3,422,137).

Guelaator Agents The bleach compositions of the present invention may also optionally contain one or more iron and / or manganese chelating agents. Such chelating agents can be selected from the group consisting of aminocarboxylates, aminophosphonates, poly-functionally substituted aromatic chelating agents and mixtures thereof, all as defined below. Without being limited by theory, it is believed that the benefit of these materials is due in part to their exceptional ability to remove iron and manganese ions from the wash solutions by forming soluble chelates. Suitable examples of such chelating agents and levels of use are described in U.S. Patent Nos. 5,576,282 and 5,728,671. A preferred biodegradable chelator for use herein is ethylene diamine disuccinate ("EDDS"), especially [S, S] isomer as described in the 4,704,233 patent, November 3, 1987, a • Hartman and Perkins. The compositions herein may also contain methylglycedacetic acid (MGDA) salts (or acid form) as a burner or co-builder useful, for example, with insoluble builders such as zeolites, layered silicates and the like.

Suitable dye transfer inhibiting agents include, but are not limited to, polyvinylpyrrolidone polymers, polyamine 5 N-oxide polymers, copolymers of N-vinylpyrrolidone and N-vinylimidazole, polyvinyloxazolidones and polyvinylimidazoles or mixtures thereof. Examples of said dye transfer inhibiting agents are described in the patents Nos. 5,707,950 and 5,707,951. Additional dye transfer inhibiting agents include, but are not limited to, 10 cross-linked polymers. Interlaced polymers are polymers whose base structures are interconnected to a certain degree, these bonds can be of a chemical or physical nature, possibly with active groups in the base structure or in branches.

In one embodiment, the entangled polymers are made in such a way that they form a rigid three-dimensional structure, which can trap dyes in the pores formed by the three-dimensional structure. In another embodiment, the entangled polymers trap dyes by 20 swelling. Interlaced polymers are described in co-pending European patent application 94870213.9.

Additions of said polymers also improve the performance of the enzymes within the bleaching compositions herein.

Enzymes that are added to the compositions in the present invention in the form of conventional enzyme granules are especially Preferred for use in the present invention. Said granules will generally vary in size from about 100 to 1000 microns, more preferably from about 200 to 800 microns and will be suspended throughout the entire non-aqueous liquid phase of the composition. The granules in the compositions of the present invention have been found, in comparison with other forms of enzymes, which exhibit especially desirable enzyme stability in terms of retention of enzymatic activity over time. Therefore, compositions using enzyme granules need not contain a conventional enzyme stabilizer as is most often used when the enzymes are incorporated in aqueous liquid detergents. Examples of suitable enzymes include, but are not limited to, hemicellulases, peroxidases, proteases, cellulases, xylanases, lipases, phospholipases, esterases, cutinases, pectinases, keratanases, reductases, oxidases, phenoloxidases, lipoxygenases, ligninases, pullulanases, tanases, pentosanas, malanases, ß-glucanases, arabinosidases, hyaluronidase, chondroitinase, laccase, and known amylases, or mixtures thereof. A preferred combination is a bleaching composition having a mixture of conventional applicable enzymes such as protease, lipase, cutinase and / or cellulase together with the amylase of the present invention. Examples of such suitable enzymes are described in U.S. Patent Nos. 5,576,282, 5,728,671 and 5,707,950. Suitable proteases are the subtilisins that are obtained from particular strains of B. subtilis and B. licheniformis (subtilisin BPN and BPN ').

The compositions of the present invention may also comprise a mannanase enzyme. preferably, mannanase is selected from the group consisting of: three mannan degrading enzymes: EC -3.2.1.25: P-mannosidase, EC 3.2.1.78: Endo-1, 4-P-mannosidase, which is referred to herein after as "mannanase" and EC 3.2.1.100: 1,4-P-mannosybose and mixtures thereof. (LUPAC Classification - Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992 ISBN 0-12-227165-3 Academic Press). More preferably, the treatment compositions of the present invention, when a mannanase is present, comprise a [3-1, 4-Mannosidase (E.C. 3.2.1.78) which is referred to as Mannanase. The term "mannanase" or "galactomannanase" refers to a mannanase enzyme that is defined according to the art as a name that has been officially labeled as endo-1, 4-beta-mannosidase and has the alternative names of beta-mannanase and endo-1, 4-mananase and catalyses in the reaction: random hydrolysis of 1, 4-beta-D-mannosidics which are unions in mannans, galactomannans, glucomannans, and galactoglucomannans. In particular, mannanases (EC 3.2.1.78) constitute a group of polysaccharides that degrade mannans and denote enzymes that have the ability to cut poly chains containing mannose units, that is, they have the ability to cut glycosidic bonds and manones,, glucomannans, galactomannans and galactoglucomannans. The mannans are polysaccharides that have a base structure composed of mannose linked to β-1, 4-; glucomannans and polysaccharides that have a base structure more or less regularly alternating bound mañosa (3-1, 4 and glucose; galactomannans and galactoglucomannans are mannans and glucomannans with a lateral branches of galactaso linked to-1, 6. These compounds can be acetylated. The degradation of galactomannans and galactoglucomannans is facilitated by the total or partial removal of the galactose side chains. In addition, the degradation of mannans, glucomannans, galactomannans and acetylated galactoglucomannans is facilitated by their total or partial diacetylation. The acetyl groups can be removed by mannacetylstearases or alkaline. The oligomers that are released from the mannanases or by a combination of mannanases and α-galactosidase and / or mananacetyl esters can also be degraded to release free maltose by means of P-mannosidase and / or O-glucosidase. Mannanases have been identified in several Bacillus organisms. For example, Talbot et al., Appl. Environ. Microbiol., Vol.56, No. 11, pp. 3505-3510 (1990) describes a beta-mannanase derived from Bacillus stearothermophilus in dimeric form (o) having a molecular weight of 162 kDa and an optimum pH of 5.5-7.5. Mendoza et al., World J. Microbiol. Biotech., Vol. 10, No. 5, pp. 551-555 (1994) describes a beta-mannanase derived from Bacillus subtilis having a molecular weight of 38 kDa, an optimal activity of pH 5.0 and 55C and a pl of 4.8. JP-03047076 describes a beta-mannanase derived from Bacillus sp., Which has a measured molecular weight of 373 kDa or gel filtration, an optimum pH of 8-10 and a pl of 5.3-5.4. JP-63056289 describes the production of an alkaline, thermostable beta-mannanase that hydrolyzes the beta-1,4-D-mannopyranoside bonds for example mannans and produces hand-oligosaccharides. JP-63036774 refers to the microorganisms Bacillus FERM P-8856 which produces beta-mannanase and beta-mannosidase at an alkaline pH. JP-08051975 describes alkaline beta-mannanases from the alkalilic Bacillus sp. AM-001 species.

Only if case II for protocol I, case III for protocol II and case lili for protocol III are satisfied, then the product containing organic catalyst (OCCP) does not fall within the limits of this invention. OCCP 5 Test protocol 1 General / parameter: All solutions are maintained at 25 ° C pH adjustments as required are achieved using sodium carbonate or sulfuric acid as appropriate. All solutions are stirred continuously at 250 rpm, except a small aliquot (DBS) 10 dye bleach solution (1-5 mL) is removed to measure the absorbance. The absorbance values are measured at max of the reference dye solution (RDS). • A test is carried out to determine if the d or w0CCP parameters need to be reconfigured from their default values. dbianqueo is a parameter in the final test protocol that describes the time that elapses between the formation of the dye bleaching solution (DBS) and the acquisition of data. The default value of the dbianchecking parameter is 1 minute, which can be defined as a longer time 20 according to case I below. WOCCP is a parameter in the final test protocol that describes the weight of the product containing organic catalyst (OCCP) used to form the product solution containing organic catalyst 'B'MItiltiiiii'WHBBMife?'

OCCP is a product that contains fully formulated organic catalyst (as defined). in the present above) in which the organic catalyst can be present with various auxiliary ingredients OCCPS is the product solution containing organic catalyst prepared by dissolving 1.00 g of a product containing organic catalyst (OCCP) in 1.0 L of 25 ° C of deionized water, the pH thereof has been previously adjusted so that the final solution has a pH between 9.9 and 10.1 DBS is the dye bleaching solution formed from the vision of a 100 mL aliquot of the OCCP S to 10 mL of CDS, determination of Amax 100 mL, add deionized water at pH 10 to 10 mL of CDS. The absorbance of the solution of the resulting homogeneous reference dye (RDS) determined by UV visible spectroscopy at the? Ma? (approximately 518 nm) is Amax. Removal time of aliquots: The times for the aliquot removal of the OCCPS include both the fixed duration (tf) and . «T- i defined (tdd). The values of tf are 0.5, 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5 minutes. The values of tdd are 0.25D, 0.50D and 0.75D where D is the recommended wash duration. The defined aliquots of the duration for which tdd is less than 5 minutes need not be considered. For the purposes of this test, D may be no less than 5 minutes nor more than 16 hours. If the manufacturer does not recommend a wash duration of the OCCP, then D is set to 20 minutes. For example, if the washing period is 60 minutes, the tdd required in addition to the tf are 15, 30 and 45 minutes. For a 12 minute washout period, the required data points are those associated with 0.5 aliquot removals, 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 6 and 9 minutes. The test is developed vide infra using the default values of dbianqueo and WOCCP- From all the fixed aliquots and fixed duration, identifies an aliquot, Q that gives rise to the lowest measured absorbance, Am? N. The time (tf or tdd) to which Q is removed from the OCCPS is defined as tQ. Note by definition that this is the same point that the largest Amm shows. There are three ca depending on the Amm value. Case 1: yes A, ™ >; 0.9 Amax, re-run the test to re-establish the dbianqueo value. In this new test, the aliquot amount removed at tQ is treated as before, except that it is stirred by increments of 1 additional minute until said time is like the absorbance Am, n < 0.9 Amax. The minimum number of DBS minutes of agitation required to satisfy the absorbance condition defines the new dbianqueo for the final implementation of the test protocol. Yes, however, if a dianqueo greater than 30 minutes is required [ie, if a bleaching of 10% is not achieved in 30 minutes, even at the point where dA is greater (when the organic catalyst is present in its concentration higher)], the OCCP is not shown in protocol I as within the limits of this invention, however, it can be found that OCCP falls within the limits of the invention by means of protocols II and / or protocol III . Case 2: yes Am? N < 0.25 Amax, run the test again to set the wOCCP value again. The OCCPS will be prepared from 50% of the OCCP default amount. This procedure is repeated only until the absorbance condition described in case 3 is fulfilled (for example, reducing OCCP from 1.0 g to 0.5 g, then if necessary from 0.5 g to 0.25 g, etc.) Case 3: yes 0.25 Amax 5 Am, n 5 0.9 Amax, then the test serves as the final test protocol implementation. Under these digenqueo conditions there is no need to change from the default values used. Test protocol I: the initial step is the preparation of OCCPS as described. The time in which OCCP is added to the deionized water to form OCCPS is stable at t = 0. At each time of removal of aliquots (tf or tdd), a 100 mL aliquot of the OCCPS is removed, immediately filtered during the period of t = (tf or tdd) at = (tf or tdd + 0.25 min) to remove undissolved OCCP, and the filtrate is added all at once t = (tfo tdd + 0.50 min) to 10.0 ml, of CDS.

OCCPS is the product solution that contains organic catalyst prepared by dissolving 1.00 g of a product containing organic catalyst (OCCP) in 1.0 L of 25 ° C deionized water, the pH of which has been previously adjusted so that the final solution has a pH between 9.9 and 10.1. wOCCP is a parameter in the final test protocol that describes the weight of the segregated organic catalyst product (OCSP) used to form the segregated organic catalyst product solution (OCCPS). The default value of the parameter is 1.00 grams but can be defined as a smaller quantity or weight according to case II below ^^^^^ DBS2 is the dye bleaching solution formed from the addition of an aliquot of 100 mL of OCCPS to 10 mL of CDS. The aliquot removal times of the OCSPS are the same as those of the OCCPS, as described above. Test protocol II: the initial step is the completion of protocol I as described. The same procedure is repeated (except that OCSP replaces OCCP) using the same dbianqueo as defined in protocol I. The time in which OCCP is added to the deionized water to form OCCPS is stable at = 0. In each of the times of aliquot removal (tf or tdd), a 100 mL aliquot of the OCCPS is removed, immediately filtered during the period of t = (tf or tdd) at = (tf or tdd + 0.25 min) to remove undissolved OCSP , and the filtered material is added all at once t = (tfo tdd + 0.50 min) to 10.0 ml, of CDS. An aliquot of 1-5 mL, S, of the resulting DBS2 is removed immediately prior to the determination of absorbance (data acquisition). The absorbance of S is measured at (?
