Definitions
- the present invention relates to a windshield washer concentrate comprising a first compound and alcohol, wherein the first compound is ammonium acetate or ammonium formate or a combination thereof, and wherein the the concentrate comprises the first compound in an amount of at least 5 g per litre alcohol.
- the typical windshield washer used today is ready to use liquid compositions comprising two compounds, namely a "small” alcohol and water. These ready to use windshield washers are stored and sold whereafter they are poured into the windshield washer tank of a car.
- small alcohol is meant an alcohol with 1 to 5 carbon atoms.
- An example of a typical windshield washer is 25-50% alcohol and water added up to 100%.
- Ethanol is the most commonly used alcohol for windshield washers.
- Other components than alcohol and water, which may possibly be present in a liquid windshield washer as known today, are soap, fragrances, bitter substances and colourings.
- Liquid windshield washers with a lower amount of alcohol, such as below 15% alcohol, are known today. However, the freezing point of such products is lower because of the less amount of alcohol present.
- Liquid windshield washers take up a lot of space both under transportation and storage. Therefore, the storage and transport expenses with the currently known windshield washers are high.
- windshield washers are freeze resistant at low temperatures, such as minus temperatures below minus 5 degrees and preferably even at lower temperatures, such that the windshield washer can be used in frosty weather, which typically is from November to
- Windshield washers should not freeze or form brash ice in cold weather, because the nozzle in the sprinkler system will then be blocked and in worse case frost damages may occur.
- an object of the present invention relates to providing a windshield washer concentrate that solves the above mentioned problems of the prior art.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide a windshield washer concentrate which can be diluted in different mixing ratios, such that the user may obtain diffent windshield washer solutions with different freezing points.
- the present invention also provides a windshield washer concentrate with which the expenses to transport, storage and other logistics are reduced as compared to when using ready to use water based windshield washer solutions.
- one aspect of the invention relates to a windshield washer concentrate comprising a first compound and alcohol, wherein the first compound is
- ammonium acetate or ammonium formate or a combination thereof wherein the concentrate comprises the first compound in an amount of at least 5 g per litre alcohol.
- Another aspect of the present invention is to provide a ready-to-use windshield washer solution comprising the windshield washer concentrate according to the present invention and water.
- Yet another aspect of the present invention is the use of the windshield washer concentrate according to the present invention for preparing a ready-to-use windshield washer solution, wherein the windshield washer concentrate is mixed with water.
- a ratio 1 : 1 between to compounds "X” and “Y” is defined as a composition comprising 1 part “X” and 1 part “Y”.
- a ratio 1 : 5 between “X” and “Y” means 1 parts "X” and 10 part “Y”.
- part is meant the unit measured, for example weight, volume, etc.
- Numerical ranges as used herein are intended to include every number and subset of numbers contained within that range, whether specifically disclosed or not. Further, these numerical ranges should be construed as providing support for a claim directed to any number or subset of numbers in that range. For example, a disclosure of from 1 to 10 should be construed as supporting a range of from 1 to 8, from 3 to 7, from 4 to 9, from 3.6 to 4.6, from 3.5 to 9.9, and so forth.
- freeze resistant refers to a solution which at a given temperature does not freeze, i.e. make ice crystal, and does not form a precipitate.
- freeze resistant When a solution is freeze resistant at a given temperature, it means that the solution is still in a liquid state, no ice crystals has been formed, such as no brash ice or slush ice, and no precipitate has been formed in the solution.
- freeze resistant is not to be compared with “melting” or “melting point”. The melting point is the temperature when a compound in solid state begins to melt to a liquid state.
- Freezing point is when the liquid solution begins to make ice crystals and thus becomes a solid.
- the melting point and freezing point may be different from each other.
- the term “antifreeze” does similar to “freeze resistant” refer to a condition where a concentrate when diluted in water has not yet begun to freeze, i.e. not yet begun to create ice crystals, and no precipitate has been formed.
- the terms “antifreeze” and “freeze resistant” are used interchangeably. Contrary to “freeze resistant” and “antifreeze”, the term “freeze” refers to when a solution is partly or fully frozen, i.e. ice crystals have been formed in the solution or precipitate has been formed in the solution.
- the invention in one aspect relates to a windshield washer concentrate comprising a first compound and alcohol, wherein the first compound is ammonium acetate or ammonium formate or a combination thereof, and wherein the concentrate comprises the first compound in an amount of at least 5 g per litre alcohol.

- the windshield washer concentrate may be used as a windshield washer directly and undiluted.
- the freezing point may be as low as minus 70 °C.
- the windshield washer will have a higher freezing point temperature, the more diluted the concentrate is.
- a concentrate according to the invention comprising 820 mg ammonium acetate, 400 mg ammonium formate, 2.54 ml ethylene glycol and 6.98 ml ethanol will undiluted have a freezing point of about minus 63 °C, while the same concentrate diluted with water 1 : 1 will have a freezing point of about minus 49 °C.
- the concentrate diluted in a mixing ratio of 1 : 2 between concentrate and water will result in a freezing point of about minus 26 °C, while a concentrate mixed with water in a ratio of 1 :4 will result in a freezing point of about minus 12 °C.

- solutions comprising the first compound in combination with alcohol will be freeze resistant at temperatures lower than if alcohol, ammonium acetate or ammonium formate is used alone.
- the present inventors have found out that very small amounts of the first compound can be present in a concentrate with alcohol in order to obtain the synergistic freeze resistance at lower temperatures.
- a windshield washer concentrate comprising 5 g of the first compound dissolved in one litre of alcohol and said concentrate being diluted with water in a ratio of 1: 5 will result in a lower freezing point than if the alcohol was used alone and diluted with water in a ratio of 1 : 5. The more of the first compound being present in the concentrate, the lower the freeing point of the concentrate will be.
- the windshield washer concentrate comprises the first compound in an amount of at least 5 g per litre alcohol, such as at least 10 g per litre alcohol, preferably 30 g per litre alcohol, even more preferably at least 40 g per litre alcohol, such as at least 50 g per litre alcohol.
