摘要:
A tissue paper of improved softness, strength and absorbency; and a manufacturing process for such a tissue paper where the generation of foam is reduced, or eliminated altogether. These are obtained using a tissue paper softener system comprising a substantially equimolar, ion-paired mixture of an anionic surfactant and a cationic quaternary ammonium compound, wherein the softener system is formulated such that the charge density of the anionic surfactant/cationic quaternary ammonium compound mixture will be about neutral.

A cleaning system having pulverulent foaming cleanser (e.g., acid, alkali metal carbonate and surfactant) is sealed within a water soluble (e.g., PVOH) deformable pouch frictionally retainable within the core of a roll of bath tissue. Upon placement of the pouch in the bowl, water in the bowl penetrates the water soluble wall of the pouch, generating foam which provides cleaning action by activating and carrying cleansing chemicals, not only below the water line of the bowl, but also considerably above it. When used routinely with each change of bath tissue roll, such a cleaning can extend the time between required manual cleanings considerably.

A method for making paper to enhance its wet strength includes adding separately to a cellulosic paper pulp furnish the following additives to form a treated pulp: a cationic wet strength resin whose cationic sites bond to anionic sites of cellulose fibers contained in the paper pulp furnish, and a hydrophobically modified anionic polyelectrolyte whose anionic sites bond with cationic sites of the cationic wet strength resin.

An alloy according to example embodiments of the present invention may include zirconium, tin, iron, chromium, and nickel, with a majority of the alloy being zirconium. The composition of the alloy may be about 0.85-2.00% tin by weight, about 0.15-0.30% iron by weight, about 0.40-0.75% chromium by weight, and less than 0.01% nickel by weight. The alloy may further include 0.004-0.020% silicon by weight, 0.004-0.020% carbon by weight, and/or 0.05-0.20% oxygen by weight. Accordingly, the alloy exhibits reduced hydrogen absorption and improved corrosion resistance and may be used to form a fuel assembly component.
摘要:
An absorbent paper sheet is treated with an aqueous wax dispersion such that the sheet includes a fused wax and emulsifier residue in an amount of from about 1 to about 20 weight percent of the sheet based on the combined weight of the fiber, wax residue and an emulsifier residue in the sheet. The fused wax emulsion operates to make at least one surface of the sheet laterally hydrophobic, exhibiting a moisture penetration delay of at least about 2 seconds and less than about 40 seconds as well as a typical contact angle with water at one minute of at least about 50 degrees. There is thus provided absorbent products which exhibit both absorbency and resistance to moisture penetration. The treated sheet further exhibits microbial barrier properties, impeding transfer of bacteria, for example, through the sheet. There are produced tissue products which resist moisture penetration from propelled liquids as well as sequester sorbed liquids in the interior of the tissue.
摘要:
A hand-washing method using an antimicrobial liquid hand soap which includes: (a) water; (b) a primary hand soap composition; (c) a biocide; and (d) a glutinous surfactant having a relative contact angle value with water of at least about +10° with respect to the primary hand soap composition. The glutinous surfactant is present in an amount effective to alter the tactile properties of the primary soap composition to promote longer and more thorough hand washing by eliciting a response to the soap's feel on the skin.

The present invention relates to the discovery, identification and characterization of nucleotides that encode Ob receptor (ObR), a receptor protein that participates in mammalian body weight regulation. The invention encompasses obR nucleotides, host cell expression systems, ObR proteins, fusion proteins, polypeptides and peptides, antibodies to the receptor, transgenic animals that express an obR transgene, or recombinant knock-out animals that do not express the ObR, antagonists and agonists of the receptor, and other compounds that modulate obR gene expression or ObR activity that can be used for diagnosis, drug screening, clinical trial monitoring, and/or the treatment of body weight disorders, including but not limited to obesity, cachexia and anorexia.

摘要:
A substrate treated with a lotion including an emollient and a retention/release agent, wherein the lotion has at least one of: (a) a .DELTA.H above about 37.degree. C. of above about 10 calories/gram (and optionally, a .DELTA.H below about 37.degree. C. of above about 15 calories/gram), a total heat of melting of above about 25 calories/gram, preferably above about 30 calories/gram, and an onset of melting temperature of at least about 30.degree. C., preferably from about 30.degree. C. to about 45.degree. C.; and (b) a .DELTA.H above about 30.degree. C. of above about 15 calories/gram (and optionally, a .DELTA.H below about 30.degree. C. of above about 10 calories/gram), a total heat of melting of above about 25 calories/gram, preferably above about 30 calories/gram, and an onset of melting temperature of at least about 30.degree. C., preferably from about 30.degree. C. to about 45.degree. C. is disclosed. Preferably the lotion includes an aromatic ester or fatty alcohol ester of a non-fatty organic acid emollient or mixture thereof and a retention/release agent, and optionally, surfactant, and/or medicinal agent. The lotion has the effect of making the treated substrate, preferably tissue, towel or napkin, optionally wet-strengthened, wipe or nonwoven material, feel smooth, lubricious and nongreasy. The skin care benefits of the lotionized substrate are expressed whether the product is used dry or prewetted with water.
