United States Patent 3,387,425 PROCESS FOR PREPARING AERUSGL PACKAGES Lloyd T. Planner, Fiorharn Park, NJ., assignor to Allied Chemical Corporation, New York, N.Y., a corporation of New York No Drawing. Filed Dec. 8, 1964, Ser. No. 415,900
8 Claims. (Cl. 53-22) ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Process for preparing aerosol by introducing into an aerosol container a dispensable liquid concentrate, closing the container with a valved closure and then introducing through the valved closure as propellant a saturated solution of a compressed gas selected from the group consisting of carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and nitrogen in a normally gaseous, liquefied chlorofluorinated saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon.
This invention relates to aerosol packages containing a concentrate and a volatile propellant in liquid phase.
It is well known commercially to package liquid concentrates and volatile liquefied propellants in aerosol containers whereby the product is propelled from the container by the pressure built up therein by the propellant vapor when the container outlet valve is opened. Propellants employed for this purpose necessarily have a relatively high vapor pressure usually ranging from about 25 to 90 p.s.i.g. at 70 F. A vapor pressure within this range is required to insure that all of the liquid product will be expelled from the container at the desired velocity under all temperatures to which the container and contents may be subjected.
Chlorofiuorinated saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons have been conventionally used in liquefied form as propellants in the aerosol art. These propellants, however, are relatively expensive. Accordingly, the aerosol industry has been seeking methods which will reduce the cost of propellants.
Compressed gases have been employed as propellants because of their extremely low cost and inertness. However, the failure of spray patterns due to pressure dro resulting from low stability of the gases in the liquid concentrates leads to limited use of compressed gases. The chlorofiuorinated saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons, on the other hand, provide constancy of pressure throughout use and minimal required head space.
In an eifort to retain the advantages of the liquefied chlorofiuorinated saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons, while reducing the cost of the aerosol formulations, the chlorofluorinated saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon propellants have been used in conjunction with compressed gases. Such use has involved sequential introduction into the aerosol container of the chlorofiuorinated saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon and the compressed gas. The vapor pressures developed in the containers have, however, been unduly high. High vapor pressures are obviously undesirable due to stringent safety and shipping regulations concerning aerosol containers.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to proice vide aerosol packages prepared by an improved economical procedure.
A particular object of the invention is to provide aerosol packages prepared by a procedure whereby the amount of chlorofiuorinated aliphatic hydrocarbon propellant is reduced while retaining affective low vapor pressures.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following description.
In accordance with the present invention, aerosol packages are prepared by introducing into an aerosol container a liquid concentrate, closing the container with a valved closure and then introducing through the valved closure a saturated solution of a compressed gas selected from the group consisting of carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and nitrogen in a liquefied chlorfluorinated saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon as propellant.
The liquid concentrates of this invention are composed essentially of an organic or aqueous liquid medium comprising generally about to 90% by weight of the formulation. Among suitable organic liquid media are monohydric alcohols containing 1 to 3 carbon atoms, such as ethyl alcohol, n-propyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, etc. Part of the alcohol medium may be replaced by Water, if desired. Other organic liquid media include chlorinated hydrocarbons such as methylene chloride, dialkyl ketones such as acetone, glycerol, monoalkylene glycols or polyalkylene glycols in which the alkylene groups contain 2 to 4 carbon atoms such as ethylene glycol and diethylene glycol, monoalkyl ethers of ethylene glycol and diethylene glycol such as ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, etc. The aqueous liquid medium is typically water itself.
Any chlorofluorinated saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon may be used in liquefied form as the essential propellant in the process of this invention. These propellants generally have vapor pressures within the range of about 5 to 300 p.s.i.g. and preferably about 10 to p.s.i.g. at 70 F. Dichlorodifiuoromethane, trichloromonofiuoromethane, dichlorotetrafiuoroethane and mixtures thereof have been found to be particularly outstanding propellants. Among other propellants which may be employed are monochlorodifluoromethane, trichlorotrifiuoroethane, dichloromonoflu-oromethane and mixtures thereof. In any specific application, the propellant used must possess solubility in the liquid concentrate.
The compressed gases used in the present invention are carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and nitrogen. The selected compressed gas is pressured at the desired temperature into the liquefied chlorofluorinated saturated aliphatic propellant in order to obtain a saturated solution of the compressed gas in the propellant. This is assured by pressuring the compressed gas'into the propellant to about p.s.i.g.
The amount of propellant may vary from about 10 to 35% by weight of the formulation. The quantity employed is generally determined by the particular propellant used andits vapor pressure at the existing temperature.
In actual commercial operation, the saturated solution of compressed gas in liquefied chlorofiuorinated saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon propellant may be readily prepared in a tank truck or storage tank. First the liquefied propellant is added to the truck or tank, and the compressed gas is then added under pressure by means of a gas transpiration system. Pipes longitudinally arranged at the bottom of the truck or tank and uniformly perforated may serve in this capacity. The compressed gas is added while the propellant is thoroughly circulated or agitated, and the gas addition is discontinued after the propellant has become completely saturated. The degree of saturation can be determined by means of a continuous sampling chromatograph. The solution of the compressed gas in the propellant is then ready for use in the process of this invention.
Depending on the nature of the product desired, the formulations may contain various additives which are soluble therein including perfumes, medicinal substances, lubricants, resins, waxes, aldehydes, iretones. petroleum hydrocarbons, ethers, menthol, camphor, etc.
In filling an aerosol container in accordance with the present invention, a liquid concentrate is first introduced into the container. The container is then purged of air and is closed with a valved closure. Finally, a saturated solution of the compressed gas in liquefied propellant is introduced through the valved closure by means of a pressure-injector. The resulting composition is thereby confined in the container under the vapor pressure of" the propellant.
Introduction of a compressed gas into a aerosol container subsequent to a liquefied chlorolluorinated saturated aliphatic hydrocarbonmust be accomplished at pressure of about 90 p.s.i.g. in order to till the container within a reasonable period of time. The container then retains a vapor pressure of about 90 p.s.i.g. It was quite unexpected, therefore, that by simply introducing a saturated solution of compressed gas in a liquefied propellant, as described above, a considerably lower vapor pressure is attained. In the case of organic liquid concentrates, the vapor pressure developed is generally not above about p.s.i.g.
The procedure of the present invention possesses the distinct advantage of permitting use of considerably reduced quantities of chlorofiuorinated saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon propellant, as compared to use of the propellant per se. Moreover, the procedure enables the obtainment of substantially lower vapor pressure then developed from separate introduction of the propellant and compressed gas. Further, much less compressed gas has been found to be required in the procedure of this invention than that necessitated by separate introduction or" the propellant and compressed gas.
Experiments were carried out using a :50 lby weight) mixture of liquefied dichlorodifluoromethane and trichloromonofluoromethane in formulations containing ethyl alcohol as liquid concentrate. Up to of propellant by weight of the formulation was required in order to attain adequate vapor pressures. Frequently with such high percentage of propellant, over-atomization of the concentrate occurs. On the other hand. when a saturated solution of carbon dioxide in the same propellant was employed, the mixture in the aerosol container possessed an ideal vapor pressure of about 34 p.s.i.g. using only 35% of propellant by weight of the formulation.
The following examples are further illustrative of the present invention.
Example I Ethyl alcohol was introduced into each of two conventional aerosol containers. The containers were purged of air and closed with valved closures. Saturated solutions of compressed gas in liquefied chlorofluorinated saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon propellants were then introduced through the valved closures. in each case, the compressed gas was pressured into the liquefied propeliii lant to 90 p.s.i.g. The results obtained are set forth in the :tollowing table. In the table, percentages are by weight.
