Abstract:
The present invention relates to wipes comprising at least one layer of a 100% synthetic nonwoven web. The wipes may be provided as a single layer of nonwoven web, or may be provided in a laminate material, such as one comprising spunlaid-meltblown-spunlaid (SMS) webs. The 100% synthetic nonwoven webs of the present invention may be made via a process comprising a fiber laying step selected from the group consisting of spunlaying, meltblowing, carding, airlaying, wetlaying and combinations thereof. The 100% synthetic nonwoven webs of the present invention may be made via a process comprising a fiber bonding step selected from the group consisting of hydroentanglement, cold calendering, hot calendering, air thru bonding, chemical bonding, needle punching and combinations thereof. The nonwoven webs may also comprise one or more polyolefins. In one embodiment of the present invention, the nonwoven webs may be spunlaid and HET.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a disposable scrubbing product for use in household cleaning or personal care applications. The scrubbing product of the invention is a multi-layer laminate product and generally includes at least two distinct layers, an abrasive layer and an absorbent fibrous layer such as a layer tissue made from papermaking fibers, a layer of coform, an airlaid web, or combinations thereof. The abrasive layer is formed primarily of polymeric fibers in a disordered or random distribution as is typical of fibers deposited in meltblown or spunbond processes so as to form an open, porous structure. In one embodiment, multiple layers of an abrasive structure are releasably attached together. In this manner, the top or outermost layer may be removed after being used in order to expose an unused abrasive structure located below the discarded layer.
Abstract:
A device for applying a substance, in particular a cosmetic, the device comprising an applicator having a structure for application purposes and capable of transporting the substance onto a surface to be treated, and optionally a wiper member for wiping said applicator prior to applying the substance, wherein inside at least a portion of said structure and/or the wiper member there are disposed one or more elements generating or suitable for generating a magnetic field of predetermined orientation.
Abstract:
A laminated and stacked cleaning kit consists of a plurality of cleaning elements stacking together. Each of the cleaning elements contains cleaning material for bonding the cleaning elements together in a laminated fashion. When in use for cleaning, the cleaning elements can generate fine foams and bubbles to achieve deep layer cleaning effect for the cleaning object. When the cleaning material on the cleaning element at the outmost layer is consumed, the outmost cleaning element peels off naturally and may be discarded. When use at the next time, the clean cleaning element at the next layer may be used.
Abstract:
A flexible wipe, comprising at least one conformable woven or non-woven layer and at least one adhered nanofiber layer, can be used to remove a variety of particulate soils from planar, curved or complex surfaces that are contaminated by small particulate soil. The nanofiber layer is configured onto the flexible non-woven in a fashion such that particulate of a broad particle size range is trapped or incorporated by the nanofiber layer and efficiently removed from the contaminated surface. The nanofiber layer comprises a web of spun fibers that can incorporate and trap soil particles for efficient soil removal.
Abstract:
A sealed packaging member includes a disposable wiping member for cleaning debris from a surface, such as, an eating utensil, a beverage container or a person's skin. The wiping member is sealed from exposure to the environment until unsealed by an associated operator. The wiping member may be saturated with purified water and contains no cleaning solution.
Abstract:
A method for producing cosmetic samplers that incorporates the genuine cosmetic through the use of bulk thin film application techniques such as extrusion or spray technology. The method comprises first applying a cosmetic slurry to a base substrate and then attaching a cover sheet by means of an adhesive on either wide-web offset or label equipment.
Abstract:
A stackable cleaner or product applicator is described in which a rigid applicator body has a downwardly opening compartment surrounded by a skirt and an upper compartment surrounded by an upwardly extending wall, the upper compartment containing a foam body and fluid or gel and being closed by means of a removable top wall fixed to the top periphery of the upwardly extending wall. The downwardly extending skirt is sized to accept the upwardly extending wall of an identical unit whereby multiple units may be stacked in a nested configuration.
Abstract:
An article containing: a substrate having at least two surfaces; and raised elements on at least one surface of the substrate, wherein the article is useful for providing skin care benefits is disclosed. The raised elements may be made from hot melt coatings, natural rubber, synthetic rubber, polyolefins, ethylene vinyl acetate, or thermoplastic elastomers.
Abstract:
The present invention provides ion-sensitive, water-dispersible polymers. The present invention also provides a method of making ion-sensitive, water-dispersible polymers and their applicability as binder compositions. The present invention further provides fiber-containing fabrics and webs comprising ion-sensitive, water-dispersible binder compositions and their applicability in water-dispersible personal care products.
