Abstract

A new method to determine glass corrosion/etching is presented. The method enables a rapid screening of formulations in terms of their glass etching tendency as well as identification of the main components responsible for giving rise to the etching. Up to four formulations can be evaluated during one day. The high sensitivity of the QCM-D instrument enables measuring the etching of thicknesses less than one nm. Therefore, the technique can be used efficiently to screen components in the formulations and aid in the development phase of new optimised dishwash detergent formulations. In a planned work we will investigate the correlation between the etching rate of thin sputtered glass films at the surface of QCM-D crystals and good performance in a standardized dishwasher test using melt-quenched glasses.

Kurzfassung

Es wird eine neue Methode zur Bestimmung der Glaskorrosion präsentiert. Die Methode ermöglicht ein schnelles Screening von Formulierungen sowohl hinsichtlich ihrer Neigung zur Glasätzung als auch der Identifikation des für die hauptsächlich verantwortlichen Inhaltsstoffs. Bis zu vier Formulierungen können pro Tag bewertet werden. Die hohe Empfindlichkeit des QCM-D-Instruments ermöglicht Ätzschichten zu messen, die dünner als 1 nm sind. Daher kann die Technik effizient eingesetzt werden, um Waschmittelformulierungen zu screenen und die Entwicklungsphase von neuen optimierten Geschirreinigerformulierungen unterstützen. In einer geplanten Arbeit wollen wir die Korrelation zwischen der Korrosionsgeschwindigkeit eines dünnen, auf die Oberfläche des QCM-D-Kristalls gesputterten Glasfilms und der guten Leistung in einem standardisierten Geschirreinigertest mit in der Schmelze abgeschrecktem Glas untersuchen.

Dr. Lubica Macakova received her Ph. D. degree in Surface Chemistry in 2007 at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden. Her thesis was focused on the interactions between biopolymers and surfactants. After her doctoral studies, she spent two years as a Marie Curie postdoctoral fellow at Unilever in Colworth UK where she was doing research on oral biolubrication. In 2009 she came back to Sweden and took on position of a project manager at the Institute for Surface Chemistry (YKI) in Stockholm. On January 1st 2013, YKI merged with an existing unit of its mother company, SP Technical Research Institute of Sweden, and formed a new unit– SP Chemistry, Materials and Surfaces. At this unit Lubica currently works on projects related to various aspects of cleaning and formulations science.

Dr. Mikael Kjellin received his Ph. D. degree in Surface Chemistry in 2002 at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden. His thesis was focused on the structure-property relations of surfactants based on natural products. He is presently working as project leader at SP Technical Research Institute of Sweden within the cleaning and laundry area. He also works within several other research fields related to surface chemistry and industrial applications thereof.

Dr. Martin Andersson received his Ph. D. degree in Inorganic Chemistry in 1999 at Stockholm University, Sweden. He is presently working as project leader at SP Technical Research Institute of Sweden and also works as business developer within the formulation area.

Leif Löf is the founder and owner of the company Kemibolaget i Bromma AB founded in 1977. He has a degree in chemical engineering. He has over the years gained awards for the company's environmental work and commitment. He is also vice chairman for SEPAWA Nordic.

Halina Wnukowska works within research and development at Kemibolaget i Bromma AB. She has a M. Sc. degree from the Technical University of Warsaw, Chemical Engineering 1982 with specialization chemical apparatus engineering.
