Abstract:
A placement type deodorizer contains a malodor removing material, wherein the deodorizer has Malodor Accessibility Factor (MAF) of more than about 5×104 ppm2 m2/(g*min) and wherein the malodor removing material comprises a malodor removing active.
Abstract:
An improved container contains a housing containing at least one aperture and a treatment composition located within the housing. The combination of the treatment composition and the housing has a mess factor of from about 3.6*10−4 to about 1.1*10−11. When the housing is in a prepared state and squeezed, the treatment composition exits the housing from the aperture.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for forming a cleaning composition containing the steps of providing at least one alkaline material and at least one acid active, and adding the acid active and the alkaline material to a mixer. The acid active is substantially neutralized within the mixer to form a neutralized detergent active. At least one acid-sensitive polymer is added to the neutralized detergent active to form a slurry, and the slurry is formed into a cleaning composition. A cleaning composition as formed by the above process is also described herein.
Abstract:
A non-tower process for continuously preparing granular detergent composition having a density of at least about 600 g/l is provided. The process comprises the steps of (a) dispersing a surfactant, and coating the surfactant with fine powder in a mixer, wherein first agglomerates are formed, (b) thoroughly mixing the first agglomerates in a mixer, wherein second agglomerates are formed, and (c) granulating the second agglomerates in one or more fluidizing apparatus. The process can also comprise further step (b'), i.e., spraying finely atomized liquid onto the second agglomerates in a mixer, between step (b) and step (c).
Abstract:
Disclosed is a pump dispenser with a dip tube for dispensing a liquid product from a package, wherein the dip tube comprises a tube portion and a tip portion at the lower end of the tube portion, and the dip tube has a shape such that it is spread at the tip portion. The pump dispenser of the present invention provides improved dispensability of the liquid products.
Abstract:
A process for detergent composition which has improved solubility or dissolution in laundering solutions, especially in solutions kept at cold temperatures (i.e., less than about 30° C.), is disclosed. The process includes mixing in at least one high-speed, low-speed, or a moderate-speed mixer, and various combinations of such mixers, at least two materials selected from the group consisting of dry agglomerates, wet agglomerates, spray dried granules, and detergent adjunct ingredients to form particles. Optionally a conditioning apparatus may also be used. The granular detergent composition made from this process is aesthetically pleasing to consumers and has improved flowability.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for forming an agglomerated particle containing the steps of providing at least one alkaline material, a core material, and at least one acid active. The alkaline material and the core material are added to a mixer and agglomerated therein, to form an agglomerated particle comprising an interior and an exterior. The acid active is then added to the mixer. The core material is concentrated into the interior of the agglomerated particle by adding substantially all of the core material to the alkaline material before more than about 50% of the acid active is added to the mixer.
