An aerosol spray, comprising: at least 20% water by weight; at least 1% hydrocarbon solvent by weight; at least .1% surfactant by weight; at least .1% limonene by weight; at least .01% butylhydroxytoluene by weight; at least .01% alkali metal benzoate by weight; and at least .01%, by weight, of an active selected from the group consisting of insecticides, insect repellants, insect control growth regulators, other fragrances, odor masks, and disinfectants.

Full Text	AEROSOL SPRAY RESISTANT TO DISCOLORATION CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] Not applicable STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH/DEVELOPMENT [0 0 02] Not applicable BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] The present invention relates to sprays designed to deliver active ingredients, such as insecticides, fragrancers and cleaners. More particularly it relates to aerosol sprays that contain limonene (for orange fragrance and solvent purposes) as well as additional chemicals to minimize can corrosion and discoloration during storage. [0004] A variety of sprays are known. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 5,773,016 describes aerosol emulsion sprays formed from water, hydrocarbon solvent, surfactant, insecticide(s), and hydrocarbon gas propellant(s). This patent also describes the desirability of adding sodium nitrite, sodium benzoate, or mixtures thereof to reduce can corrosion during storage. [0005] U.S. patent 5,792,465 described relatively stable microemuisions used to deliver insect control agents, as well as the possibility of adding propane/isobutane mixtures as a preferred propellant. This patent also noted that d-limonene (an element of orange oil) could be added as well, as a solvent. [0006] In separate work it has been suggested to add butylhydroxytoluene ("BHT") to some insecticidal mixtures, primarily for its antioxidant properties (to protect actives). [0007] While the art has therefore suggested the use of limonene in certain sprays, such formulations tend to quickly discolor, particularly in the presence of the anti-corrosive agent sodium nitrite. This can make a consumer less willing to use such a spray in the home, even though orange fragrance is highly desirable. [0008] Hence, a need exists for improved spray formulations containing limonene. [0009] BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0010] In one aspect the invention provides an aerosol spray that contains at least 20% (preferably about 50%) water, at least 1% (preferably about 10%) hydrocarbon solvent, at least 0.1% (preferably about 1%) surfactant, at least 0.1% (preferably about 2%) limonene, at least 0.01% (preferably about 0.5%) butylhydroxytoluene, at least 0.01% (preferably about 0.2%) alkali metal benzoate (preferably sodium benzoate), and at least 0.01 % (preferably about 0.4%) of an active selected from the group consisting of pest control materials (e.g. insecticides, insect repellants or insect control growth regulators), fragrancers, odor masks, and disinfectants. Unless stated to the contrary, all percentages set forth herein are weight percentages. The spray is preferably in the form of an aerosol spray containing a gas propellant. [0011] Preferred hydrocarbon solvents (apart from the gas propellant) have between 6 and 20 carbons. Examples include hexane, benzene, toluene, xylene, mineral spirits, mineral oil, heavy aromatic naptha, kerosene, paraffins, isoparaffins, and other alkanes and alkenes. A particularly preferred hydrocarbons is the Norpar 13 solvent from Exxon. [0012] The surfactants can be chosen from a variety of cationic, anionic, amphoteric and nonionic surfactants known to be useful in connection with aerosol emulsion sprays for delivering actives, with nonionics and anionics being particularly preferred. In this regard it is preferred to use a mixture of sorbitan monooleate and polyethoxylated stearic acid as the surfactants when formulating an insecticidal spray. [0013] Other suitable nonionic surfactants, depending on the active and application, include polyethoxylates derived from primary and secondary aliphatic alcohols having from 8 to 24 carbons atoms in the alcohol alkyl chain. Part or all of the ethylene oxide may be replaced by propylene oxide. Still other suitable nonionic surfactants may include polyoxyalkylene alkyl phenols; polyalkylene esters of the higher organic acids having 8 or more carbon atoms in the acid hydrophobe and 10 or more moles of ethylene oxide as a hydrophilic group; polyalkylene alkyl amines whose hydrophobic group is from a primary, secondary or tertiary amine and whose ethylene oxide content is sufficiently high to impart both water solubility and nonionic characteristics, usually derived from fatty acids with 8 or more carbons; polyalkylene alkyl amides having a hydrophobic group derived from an amide of a fatty acid or ester; fatty acid esters of glycols, polyalkylene oxide block copolymer and the like. [0014] Representative of possible suitable anionic surfactants (depending on active and application) include alkyl aryl sulfonates of 6 to 20 carbons atoms in the alkyl group; C10 -C22 fatty acid soaps; C10 -C22 fatty sulfates; C10 -C22 alkyl sulfonates, including the alkali metal salts of the higher alkyl and linear paraffin sulfonic acids and salts thereof; alkali metal dialkyl sulfosuccinates, ethoxylated alcohol sulfates, phosphate esters, taurates, and the like. [0015] A wide variety of cationic and amphoteric surfactants, of the types conventionally used in aerosol emulsion sprays, can also be used. However, they are not preferred because they tend to be somewhat more corrosive. [0016] A variety of gaseous hydrocarbons can be used as the propellants. For purposes of this application, a "hydrocarbon" only has carbon and hydrogen. They typically liquefy under the pressure conditions of an aerosol can and become part of the hydrocarbon solvent. For example, the propellant can be dimethylether, difluoroethane, propane, butane, isobutane and mixtures thereof (preferably an isobutane/propane mix). A particularly preferred propellant is A-46 from Phillips Petroleum, a 80/20 mol % propane/isobutane mixture. Alternatively, the propellant could be another type of gas such as CO2. [0017] Where the active is a pest control ingredient, such as an ingredient effective against crawling or flying insects, the active may be a mixture of synthetic pyrethroids such as two or more of tetramethrin, permethrin, cypermethrin, cyfluthrin, allethrin forte, phenothrin, d-phenothrin, resmethrin, esbiothrin, allethrin, d-trans allethrin and kadethrin, and lambda-cyhalothrin, natural pyrethrum (e.g. pyrethrins), and organo phosphates such as chlorpyrifos See also other insecticides listed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,037,653. Various synergists, such as piperonyl butoxide, may also be used. [0018] The insect control agent can instead be a repellent such as citronella, lemon grass oil, lavender oil, cinnamon oil, neem oil, clove oil, sandalwood oil, or geraniol. Alternatively, the active can be an insect growth regulator such as hydroprene. Another type of active is a fragrancer or deodorizer/mask. Some of the above oils such as lavender oil fulfill both a repellant and fragrance function. [0019] Yet another type of active is a disinfecting agent such as orthophenyl phenol. These can also perform a deodorizing function in some cases. [0020] Other ingredients (e.g. cosolvent alcohols) may also be included, depending upon the intended application. For example, a furniture polish might include a silicone for providing a shine. [0021] When the spray contains a gaseous propellant and is pressurized in a can, the spray may be sprayed from the aerosol can into the air (in the case of a flying insect killer), or against a surface (in the case of a crawling insect killer or cleaner). As an alternative, a pump spray container (without gas propellant) can be used in a similar manner. [0022] In this latter form, the invention can provide a spray having at least 20% water, at least .1% limonene, at least .01% butylhydroxytoluene, at least .01% alkali metal benzoate, and at least .01%, of an active selected from the group consisting of insecticides, insect repellants insect control growth regulators, other fragrances, odor masks, and disinfectants. [0023] An advantage of the present invention is that the sprays are substantially color stable over prolonged periods during storage. This is achieved without adversely impacting the effectiveness of conventional actives or the fragrance, or significantly increasing cost, or preventing the use of an anti-corrosive to protect the can. [0024] These and still other advantages of the present invention will be apparent from the description which follows. In that description reference is made to certain preferred embodiments. However, the claims should be looked to in order to judge the full scope of the invention, and the claims are not to be limited to just the preferred embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS [0025] A. Overview [0026] Preferred forms of the present invention are aerosol emulsion sprays with insecticidal active. These typically have water, surfactants, hydrocarbon solvent, propellant gas, and one or more actives. In accordance with the present invention, we also add BHT as an antioxidant to protect the active, limonene as a preferred desired fragrance (and additional solvent), and (in preferred forms) sodium benzoate as a corrosion inhibitor. [0028] C. Test Data [0029] With respect to formulas A-E, one ("A") had both BHT and sodium benzoate, one had neither and no sodium nitrite ("B"), one had neither plus sodium nitrite ("C"), one had BHT and neither sodium nitrite or sodium benzoate ("D"), and one had BHT plus sodium nitrite with no sodium benzoate ("E"). The formulas were stored in a standard, albeit glass, aerosol container. I observed discoloration by visual observation technique as well as a subjective 0-5 ranking system with 5 being assigned to the sample with the most discoloration and 0 to the sample with no coloration, in each case after a 27 day simulated storage period. [0030] While Formula B, without BHT and corrosion inhibitor is clear, when BHT was added (Formula D) there was discoloration even in the absence of corrosion inhibitor, which was similar in intensity to Formula C containing only sodium nitrite (and no BHT or sodium benzoate). When both sodium nitrite and BHT were added (Formula E), discoloration was even more intense. Surprisingly, when sodium benzoate replaced the sodium nitrite, as shown in Formula A, there was essentially no appreciable discoloration of the formula. [0031] Thus, the presence of the three elements (limonene, BHT, alkali metal benzoate) act synergistically, while providing a desired fragrance and corrosion inhibition. Importantly, this is achieved without significant interference to insecticidal activity, and at acceptable cost. [0032] An alternative formulation designed for a non-aerosol pump spray is as follows (ingredients by weight percent): [0033] While the above describes a number of preferred embodiments of the present invention, it will be appreciated that other embodiments are also within the scope of the invention. For example, other alkali metal benzoates should also be beneficial in combination with BHT. Moreover, the invention should also be useful with other actives. Thus, the claims which follow should be looked to in order to judge the full scope of the invention. Industrial Applicability [0034] The present invention provides improved aerosol sprays, particularly those that deliver insecticides, where the spray contains limonene and is resistant to discoloration during storage. WE CLAIM: 1. An aerosol spray, comprising: at least 20% water by weight; at least 1% hydrocarbon solvent by weight; at least .1% surfactant by weight; at least .1% limonene by weight; at least .01% butylhydroxytoluene by weight; at least .01% alkali metal benzoate by weight; and at least .01%, by weight, of an active selected from the group consisting of insecticides, insect repellants, insect control growth regulators, other fragrances, odor masks, and disinfectants. 2.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0003] The present invention relates to sprays designed to deliver active
ingredients, such as insecticides, fragrancers and cleaners. More particularly it relates
to aerosol sprays that contain limonene (for orange fragrance and solvent purposes) as
well as additional chemicals to minimize can corrosion and discoloration during
storage.
[0004] A variety of sprays are known. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 5,773,016
describes aerosol emulsion sprays formed from water, hydrocarbon solvent,

to deliver insect control agents, as well as the possibility of adding propane/isobutane
mixtures as a preferred propellant. This patent also noted that d-limonene (an element
of orange oil) could be added as well, as a solvent.
[0006] In separate work it has been suggested to add butylhydroxytoluene

[0008] Hence, a need exists for improved spray formulations containing
limonene.

[0009] BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0010] In one aspect the invention provides an aerosol spray that contains at
least 20% (preferably about 50%) water, at least 1% (preferably about 10%)
hydrocarbon solvent, at least 0.1% (preferably about 1%) surfactant, at least 0.1%
(preferably about 2%) limonene, at least 0.01% (preferably about 0.5%)
butylhydroxytoluene, at least 0.01% (preferably about 0.2%) alkali metal benzoate
(preferably sodium benzoate), and at least 0.01 % (preferably about 0.4%) of an active
selected from the group consisting of pest control materials (e.g. insecticides, insect
repellants or insect control growth regulators), fragrancers, odor masks, and
disinfectants. Unless stated to the contrary, all percentages set forth herein are weight
percentages. The spray is preferably in the form of an aerosol spray containing a gas
propellant.
[0011] Preferred hydrocarbon solvents (apart from the gas propellant) have
between 6 and 20 carbons. Examples include hexane, benzene, toluene, xylene,
mineral spirits, mineral oil, heavy aromatic naptha, kerosene, paraffins, isoparaffins,
and other alkanes and alkenes. A particularly preferred hydrocarbons is the Norpar 13
solvent from Exxon.
[0012] The surfactants can be chosen from a variety of cationic, anionic,
amphoteric and nonionic surfactants known to be useful in connection with aerosol
emulsion sprays for delivering actives, with nonionics and anionics being particularly
preferred. In this regard it is preferred to use a mixture of sorbitan monooleate and
polyethoxylated stearic acid as the surfactants when formulating an insecticidal spray.
[0013] Other suitable nonionic surfactants, depending on the active and
application, include polyethoxylates derived from primary and secondary aliphatic
alcohols having from 8 to 24 carbons atoms in the alcohol alkyl chain. Part or all of
the ethylene oxide may be replaced by propylene oxide. Still other suitable nonionic
surfactants may include polyoxyalkylene alkyl phenols; polyalkylene esters of the
higher organic acids having 8 or more carbon atoms in the acid hydrophobe and 10 or
more moles of ethylene oxide as a hydrophilic group; polyalkylene alkyl amines
whose hydrophobic group is from a primary, secondary or tertiary amine and whose

ethylene oxide content is sufficiently high to impart both water solubility and
nonionic characteristics, usually derived from fatty acids with 8 or more carbons;
polyalkylene alkyl amides having a hydrophobic group derived from an amide of a
fatty acid or ester; fatty acid esters of glycols, polyalkylene oxide block copolymer
and the like.
[0014] Representative of possible suitable anionic surfactants (depending on
active and application) include alkyl aryl sulfonates of 6 to 20 carbons atoms in the
alkyl group; C10 -C22 fatty acid soaps; C10 -C22 fatty sulfates; C10 -C22 alkyl
sulfonates, including the alkali metal salts of the higher alkyl and linear paraffin
sulfonic acids and salts thereof; alkali metal dialkyl sulfosuccinates, ethoxylated
alcohol sulfates, phosphate esters, taurates, and the like.
[0015] A wide variety of cationic and amphoteric surfactants, of the types
conventionally used in aerosol emulsion sprays, can also be used. However, they are
not preferred because they tend to be somewhat more corrosive.
[0016] A variety of gaseous hydrocarbons can be used as the propellants. For

the hydrocarbon solvent. For example, the propellant can be dimethylether,
difluoroethane, propane, butane, isobutane and mixtures thereof (preferably an
isobutane/propane mix). A particularly preferred propellant is A-46 from Phillips
Petroleum, a 80/20 mol % propane/isobutane mixture. Alternatively, the propellant
could be another type of gas such as CO2.
[0017] Where the active is a pest control ingredient, such as an ingredient
effective against crawling or flying insects, the active may be a mixture of synthetic
pyrethroids such as two or more of tetramethrin, permethrin, cypermethrin, cyfluthrin,
allethrin forte, phenothrin, d-phenothrin, resmethrin, esbiothrin, allethrin, d-trans
allethrin and kadethrin, and lambda-cyhalothrin, natural pyrethrum (e.g. pyrethrins),
and organo phosphates such as chlorpyrifos See also other insecticides listed in U.S.
Pat. No. 5,037,653. Various synergists, such as piperonyl butoxide, may also be
used.

[0018] The insect control agent can instead be a repellent such as citronella,
lemon grass oil, lavender oil, cinnamon oil, neem oil, clove oil, sandalwood oil, or
geraniol. Alternatively, the active can be an insect growth regulator such as
hydroprene. Another type of active is a fragrancer or deodorizer/mask. Some of the
above oils such as lavender oil fulfill both a repellant and fragrance function.
[0019] Yet another type of active is a disinfecting agent such as orthophenyl
phenol. These can also perform a deodorizing function in some cases.
[0020] Other ingredients (e.g. cosolvent alcohols) may also be included,
depending upon the intended application. For example, a furniture polish might
include a silicone for providing a shine.
[0021] When the spray contains a gaseous propellant and is pressurized in a
can, the spray may be sprayed from the aerosol can into the air (in the case of a flying
insect killer), or against a surface (in the case of a crawling insect killer or cleaner).
As an alternative, a pump spray container (without gas propellant) can be used in a
similar manner.
[0022] In this latter form, the invention can provide a spray having at least
20% water, at least .1% limonene, at least .01% butylhydroxytoluene, at least .01%
alkali metal benzoate, and at least .01%, of an active selected from the group
consisting of insecticides, insect repellants insect control growth regulators, other
fragrances, odor masks, and disinfectants.
[0023] An advantage of the present invention is that the sprays are
substantially color stable over prolonged periods during storage. This is achieved
without adversely impacting the effectiveness of conventional actives or the
fragrance, or significantly increasing cost, or preventing the use of an anti-corrosive to
protect the can.
[0024] These and still other advantages of the present invention will be
apparent from the description which follows. In that description reference is made to
certain preferred embodiments. However, the claims should be looked to in order to
judge the full scope of the invention, and the claims are not to be limited to just the
preferred embodiments.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0025] A. Overview
[0026] Preferred forms of the present invention are aerosol emulsion sprays
with insecticidal active. These typically have water, surfactants, hydrocarbon solvent,
propellant gas, and one or more actives. In accordance with the present invention, we
also add BHT as an antioxidant to protect the active, limonene as a preferred desired
fragrance (and additional solvent), and (in preferred forms) sodium benzoate as a
corrosion inhibitor.

[0028] C. Test Data
[0029] With respect to formulas A-E, one ("A") had both BHT and sodium
benzoate, one had neither and no sodium nitrite ("B"), one had neither plus sodium
nitrite ("C"), one had BHT and neither sodium nitrite or sodium benzoate ("D"), and
one had BHT plus sodium nitrite with no sodium benzoate ("E"). The formulas were
stored in a standard, albeit glass, aerosol container. I observed discoloration by visual
observation technique as well as a subjective 0-5 ranking system with 5 being
assigned to the sample with the most discoloration and 0 to the sample with no
coloration, in each case after a 27 day simulated storage period.
[0030] While Formula B, without BHT and corrosion inhibitor is clear, when
BHT was added (Formula D) there was discoloration even in the absence of corrosion
inhibitor, which was similar in intensity to Formula C containing only sodium nitrite
(and no BHT or sodium benzoate). When both sodium nitrite and BHT were added
(Formula E), discoloration was even more intense. Surprisingly, when sodium
benzoate replaced the sodium nitrite, as shown in Formula A, there was essentially no
appreciable discoloration of the formula.
[0031] Thus, the presence of the three elements (limonene, BHT, alkali metal
benzoate) act synergistically, while providing a desired fragrance and corrosion
inhibition. Importantly, this is achieved without significant interference to
insecticidal activity, and at acceptable cost.
[0032] An alternative formulation designed for a non-aerosol pump spray is as
follows (ingredients by weight percent):

[0033] While the above describes a number of preferred embodiments of the
present invention, it will be appreciated that other embodiments are also within the
scope of the invention. For example, other alkali metal benzoates should also be
beneficial in combination with BHT. Moreover, the invention should also be useful
with other actives. Thus, the claims which follow should be looked to in order to
judge the full scope of the invention.

discoloration during storage.
