摘要:
An appliance, such as a sleeve, sock, glove, or patch, that comprises a liquid-permeable substrate and a substantially dry and/or immobile composition (i.e., the formulation is substantially free of water so that the formulation is a solid or semi-solid formulation at temperatures typifying transport, storage, and/or use conditions), effectively and comfortably treats the skin or tissue of a user. Humectants, materials of an occlusive nature, and numerous other ingredients may be included in the formulation. The appliance can comprise elastomeric materials that facilitate contact between the appliance and skin.
摘要:
Disclosed is an appliance adapted to transfer to, or associate with, the skin or tissue of a user, a composition, e.g., a moisturizing formulation. Because of possible interactions between the formulation and/or formulation ingredients and elastomeric polymers that may be employed to help give the appliance elastomeric qualities, the appliance comprises an elastic layer or member and a shielding layer or member, with the shielding member interposed between the composition/formulation and the elastic member. Typically the shielding member will be impermeable to the composition/formulation (e.g., by employing polymers, such as polypropylene comprising crystalline portions, such that the mass transport of the formulation through the shielding member is stopped or substantially impeded).

Disclosed is a method for making an appliance adapted to transfer to, or associate with, the skin or tissue of a user, a composition, e.g., a moisturizing formulation. Because of possible interactions between the formulation and/or formulation ingredients and elastic polymers that may be employed to help give the appliance elastic qualities, the method comprises steps for providing an elastic layer or member and a shielding layer or member, with the shielding member interposed between the composition/formulation and the elastic member. The shielding layer and elastic layer may be integrally connected to one another, as in a film comprising two layers. Typically the shielding layer will be impermeable to the composition/formulation (e.g., by employing polymers, such as polypropylene comprising crystalline portions, such that the mass transport of the formulation through the shielding member is stopped or substantially impeded).
摘要:
A sheet dispenser is defined by at least six panels having outwardly facing surfaces, wherein at least one of the panels is oriented at an oblique angle with respect to the other panels. Sheets may be dispensed from an opening located on the oblique surface. The sheet dispenser may sit on a surface such as a countertop for dispensing, or may be placed between a wall and other structure attached to the wall such as a towel bar. Furthermore, the sheet dispenser may be hung from a structure using a strap attached to the towel dispenser.
