Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2016127979A1] The invention relates to a brush head of a toilet brush, comprising a main part that has a receiving portion for a brush handle, and plastic bristles which protrude from said main part, characterised in that the bristles are made of TPE-V. According to the applicants, the olefin basis of such polymers, as a hydrophobic, waxy compound class, can provide improved hydrophobicity relative to aqueous and water-soluble contaminants. This explains why the low degree of wettability gives unexpectedly good results in terms of residues and/or adhesions.
