摘要:
A method of using steam ironing of fabrics as a way of causing reduction of physiological and/or subjective reactivity to stress in a human is provided. The method includes the steps of providing a stress reducing composition comprising one or more of a volatile natural essential oil and water. The composition is adapted to not cause staining of fabrics. The method includes delivering the stress reducing composition into a liquid container of a steam iron and heating the steam iron. The method further includes releasing vapors of the stress reducing composition produced within the liquid container of the steam iron upon heating into ambient air. The method still further includes the step of causing reduction of physiological and/or subjective reactivity to stress in the human by one of more of transdermal ingestion or inhalation of the vapors by the human.
摘要:
An article having a substrate with at least one ink layer in direct contact with at least a portion of the substrate. An acrylic polymer matrix layer is in direct contact with at least a portion of the ink layer. The acrylic polymer matrix layer has suspended aluminum platelets and at least one photoinitiator. At least a portion of the acrylic polymer matrix layer has a selectively embossed top surface with a pattern of fine grooves to create an optical effect.

摘要:
A laundry detergent product capable of removing malodor from laundered items during an automatic laundry washing process is disclosed. The laundry detergent comprises: (a) cyclodextrin granules formed from a mixture of cyclodextrin powder, an inorganic compound and an aqueous medium, the cyclodextrin granules having a particle size in a range of from about 100 microns to about 1200 microns; (b) a laundry detergent composition including a surfactant, a builder and an enzyme; and (c) the laundry detergent product being adapted to readily dissolve and disperse the cyclodextrin granules into a wash solution when the laundry detergent product is used in the above automatic laundry washing process, and wherein the cyclodextrin, when released into the above wash solution, has an odor loading factor of at least about 50.
摘要:
A process for producing a starting material in a granular form and in a nanoporous anhydrous state, a process for improving the water-solubility and controlled release characteristics of a detergent material, and a detergent composition are disclosed. In one aspect, a process for producing a starting material in a granular form and in a nanoporous anhydrous state includes obtaining a starting material in a form of a dispersion or solution in a sublimable solvent or mixtures of sublimable solvents, forming graded droplets by atomization, freezing the graded droplets in a freezing medium at a controlled freezing rate of a least 100° C. per second to form frozen droplets and drying the frozen droplets by vacuum sublimation to obtain freeze-dried granules of the starting material in a nanoporous anhydrous state. The starting material in dispersion or solution form has a viscosity suitable for atomization and formation of graded droplets.
摘要:
A detergent composition having a plasma-induced, water-soluble coating for controlling solubility, chemical stability, and physical properties is disclosed. A process for making such a detergent composition is also disclosed which involves subjecting a detergent material to a plasma glow zone in which an organic hydrophilic monomer is introduced such that it ultimately deposits on the detergent material to form a water-soluble coating. The detergent compositions are particulate or non-particulate and can be used for laundry, dishwashing, or other similar applications.
摘要:
A process for plasma treatment of particulate matter, and more particularly, an apparatus for plasma induced graft polymerization of particulate matter in a continuous or semi-continuous manner, and a process for plasma induced graft polymerization of particulate matter in a continuous or semi-continuous manner is provided.
摘要:
A fabric article treating apparatus for dispensing a benefit composition through a nozzle that directs the benefit composition as droplets or particles into the chamber of the fabric article drying appliance. The droplets or particles provide benefits to the fabric articles within the drying appliance. The treating apparatus includes one or more safety features, and/or it includes beneficial control concepts that enhance the effects of the benefit composition being dispensed through the nozzle.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the photocatalytic degradation of organic compounds by zeolite and/or mesoporous material hosted photocatalysts. The present invention further relates to a method of treating a contaminated aqueous liquid or gaseous fluid containing organics using a combination of visible or solar light energy in the presence of a photocatalyst to decompose the organic impurities in the liquid or gaseous fluid.
摘要:
An autonomously movable cleaning robot comprising a platform and motive force to autonomously move the robot on a substantially horizontal surface having boundaries. The robot further has a computer processing unit for storing, receiving and transmitting data, and a cleaning implement operatively associated with the robot. The robot receives input data from an external source. The external source may be physical manipulation of the robot, remote control, or by triangulation from at least three external transmitters.
