摘要:
The present invention is directed to a health-and-hygiene appliance comprising a dispersible component and a releasable component. Some or all of the releasable component is not homogeneously distributed throughout the dispersible component. Instead, the releasable component is disposed adjacent or proximate to the dispersible component, as would occur if the dispersible component was coated, sprayed, injected, deposited, printed, or otherwise associated with a formed dispersible component. One example of such an appliance is a cleansing product in which, on exposure to liquid, such as water, the dispersible component disperses or disintegrates, thereby releasing, and making available, all or substantially all of the releasable component, in this case a soap, cleanser, or other formulation. The releasable component may be released prior to, concurrent with, and/or after dispersal or disintegration of the dispersing component. The appliance can be sized for convenient handling by a caregiver or user-e.g., a child-and for delivery of a pre-selected amount of the releasable component in a single use.

The present invention is directed to a personal cleansing product which can be sized as a single use personal cleansing product. The cleansing product is an extruded foam product which can disintegrate upon contact with water when used in the standard fashion to wash. As the foam disintegrates, the cleansing agent held in the foam matrix is released. The disintegration of the product can take place slowly, over a period of time such that when an individually sized cleanser is used to scrub until it completely disintegrates, scrubbing duration is long enough to ensure desired levels of cleanliness have been attained. Alternatively, the product can disintegrate immediately, and release all of the soap at essentially one time. The product is an extruded foam expanded from a mixture of a natural starch, a nucleating agent, a water soluble disintegrant, a blowing agent, a water soluble polymer, and a soap base. Optionally, the foam can include a destructured starch, natural, dyes, fragrances, and the like to obtain specific product characteristics.
摘要:
A cleansing composition is disclosed that changes color during use. The cleansing composition contains a plurality of thermochromic dyes that cause a color change to occur at a threshold temperature and continue to cause a color change over a temperature range. The range of temperatures corresponds to approximately the amount of time sufficient to properly wash or scrub using the product.

Disclosed is a cleaning composition comprising a thermochromic ingredient that effects a color change at a given temperature or temperature range. Such a composition may be used to provide a signal, i.e., convey information, to a user of the cleaning composition, or a caregiver employing the cleaning composition. Additionally, the cleaning composition may be employed in a substrate, such as a nonwoven. The cleaning compositions may be used to provide a signal that helps improve cleaning effectiveness and/or safety and/or entertainment value. Furthermore, compositions comprising one or more thermochromic ingredients may be used to signify, or help induce, a given mental state, psychological state, or state of well being.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a system that includes a plurality of disposable absorbent products (12, 32, 42, 52a, 52b, 72, 82, 92, 101, 202) where at least one of the disposable absorbent products includes a tag (14). The system further includes a reader (16) that identifies the tags on the plurality of disposable absorbent products and plays media based on the identity of the tags. In another form, the system includes a reader (56) that identifies the tags (54b) on the plurality of disposable absorbent products (52b) and provides information (58b) relating to one other product based on the identity of the tags. In still another form, the present invention relates to a method that includes marking a plurality of disposable absorbent products (e.g., diapers) with a tag, and providing a reader that plays media (20) based on the identity of the tags.
