摘要： A method of making a personal care composition that involves using a mixer to combine a personal care composition chassis with microcapsules. The mixer has a housing, a first fluid inlet, a second inlet, a fluid outlet and a rotor connected to the housing. The rotor has blades positioned within the housing to define cells between neighboring blades and the housing. The personal care composition chassis, which includes surfactants and water, is advanced along a flow path from the first fluid inlet toward the fluid outlet, while the microcapsules are transferred from the second inlet to the flow path by rotating the rotor. Air in the microcapsule composition is directed from inside the cells toward the second inlet, and the microcapsule composition is combined with the personal care composition chassis to form the personal care composition. The personal care composition is advanced from the outlet.

摘要： The present invention generally relates to systems and methods for the control of fluids and, in some cases, to systems and methods for flowing a fluid into and/or out of other fluids. As examples, fluid may be injected into a droplet contained within a fluidic channel, or a fluid may be injected into a fluidic channel to create a droplet. In some embodiments, electrodes may be used to apply an electric field to one or more fluidic channels, e.g., proximate an intersection of at least two fluidic channels. For instance, a first fluid may be urged into and/or out of a second fluid, facilitated by the electric field. The electric field, in some cases, may disrupt an interface between a first fluid and at least one other fluid. Properties such as the volume, flow rate, etc. of a first fluid being urged into and/or out of a second fluid can be controlled by controlling various properties of the fluid and/or a fluidic droplet, for example curvature of the fluidic droplet, and/or controlling the applied electric field.

摘要： A mixing cartridge delivery system, which mixes additive with base liquid flowing through it, utilizes a dispensing closure valve to achieve improved flow of mixed liquid from the cartridge. A closure base may include a tethered lid. A flexible valve, such as a slit valve, is supported on a valve supporting end of the closure base and retained thereon with a valve retainer that interlocks with the closure base. The system may include a one-way valve for base liquid and a mixing section defined in the cartridge. The dispensing closure valve achieves improved flow characteristics in combination with the base liquid valve. The dispensing closure valve also prevents leakage and inadvertent discharge from the cartridge system.
