Abstract: Disclosed is a mild skin cleansing soap bar composition comprising: (1) 50-90% soap, and (2) a hydrated cationic polymeric skin conditioner. The physical composition of the bar is such that the hydrated polymer is substantially uniformly distributed and well incorporated in the soap. The hydrated cationic polymer improves the mildness of the soap bar to a level approaching that of bars made with very mild synthetic surfactants, while maintaining the desirable physical characteristics of a pure soap bar without the polymer.

Abstract: A through the wash, compact, laminated laundry product (1) comprising powdered laundry actives laminated between two plies, at least one ply of which is a strong wet strength, high stretch tissue (5) having a multiplicity of deeply embossed (stretched) nonconnecting tissue cup-like depressions (2) containing the powdered actives with the other ply (4) covering the cups. The plies are sealed with a glue pattern (22) around the cup rims (5a). The high stretch tissue is stretched 15% to 100% to form said deeply embossed (stretched) cups and is made to survive the rigors of a washing machine.
Abstract: Disclosed is an ultra mild skin cleansing composition comprising: mild synthetic surfactants, moisturizers, polymeric skin feel and mildness aids and selected levels of soap. An ultra mild skin cleansing bar is provided which is clinically milder on the skin than water.

Abstract: Cleaners with excellent shine quality are prepared from mixtures of organic solvent and a builder comprising a ternary mixture of citrate/NTA/EDTA.
Abstract: Aqueous cleaning compositions displaying shear thinning behaviour are provided, comprising from 0.1% to 5% by weight C.sub.12 -C.sub.15 alkyl amine oxides, together with from 0.05 to 0.5% by weight of an alkylated benzene or naphthalene sulfonate, at a weight ratio of amine oxide to alkylated benzene sulfonate of from 2.5:1 to 10:1. Compositions containing alkali metal hypochlorite bleach are disclosed in which the preferred alkylated benzene sulfonate is sodium cumene sulfonate.
Abstract: This invention relates to an enzyme and peroxyacid bleach granular composition comprising (1) a homogeneously mixed granulate of enzymes and alkaline buffer salt to protect the enzymes from deactivation when mixed with (2) a strong peroxyacid bleach granulate. This composition can also contain detergent surface-active agents, water-soluble builder salts, and other ingredients commonly used in detergents and laundry additive products.
Abstract: Liquid compositions, particularly for use as hard surface cleaners, comprise terpenes, benzyl alcohol and abrasives. The compositions provide excellent cleaning of both greasy and particulate soils from hard surfaces without streaking or filming, excellent formulation homogeneity, stability and viscosity characteristics, as well as good suds control.
Abstract: Improved phase stable liquid compositions, particularly for use as hard surface cleansers, comprise a mixture of sodium C.sub.12 -C.sub.18 paraffin sulfonate (NaPS) and sodium salt of linear alkyl benzene sulfonate (LAS), terpenes, benzyl alcohol, acrylic acid polymeric thickeners, abrasives and viscosity enhancer compounds. The compositions are viscous, substantially phase stable and provide excellent cleaning of both greasy and particulate soils from hard surfaces without streaking or filming.
Abstract: A method of automatic brushless removal of existing soil and long term maintenance cleaning of flush toilet bowls with bromide activated hypochlorite salts. A solution which yields hypochlorite ions in a concentration of 30 to 100 ppm, and bromide ions in a concentration of 0.1 to 20 ppm is dispensed into the toilet bowl with each flush.
Abstract: Dryer-added fabric conditioning articles and methods utilizing a fabric softener agent and a polymeric soil release agent. More specifically, damp fabrics are commingled with softener active and polymeric soil release agent in an automatic clothes dryer and are provided with a soft, antistatic finish and soil release benefits concurrently with the drying operation. The softening and antistatic soil release agents herein are preferably employed in combination with a dispensing means adapted for use in an automatic dryer.

Abstract: The invention relates to an article comprising mobile or immobilized softener composition contained inside laminated plies, which plies are oriented for improved dryer fabric softening and antistatic performance when placed in a dryer with a load of wet fabrics. More specifically, the invention relates to an article comprising releasable fabric softener enclosed inside a flexible water-permeable two ply laminate wherein one of said plies is a first ply which comprises a special tissue which is oriented so that the second ply is less readily absorbent to molten fabric softener than the first ply, whereby the laminate provides improved fabric softening and antistatic performance.
Abstract: Disclosed is a through-the-wash and dryer laundry product which comprises:(a) a water-permeable, water-insoluble substrate;(b) a particulate fabric softener for release in the dryer, said softener enclosed within a pouch made of the substrate; wherein(c) the substrate has on its surface a water-insoluble, spaced-apart glue pattern adapted to reduce fabric softener staining when the product is used in the dryer.
Abstract: An article for sanitizing toilets comprising a dosing dispenser with a calcium hypochlorite cake composition characterized in that the article is designed (when used) to dispense from 1 ml to 4 mls of a 5% to 15% liquid bleach over the life of the article. When in use, the article is designed to maintain a reserve of liquid bleach in the dispenser wherein the reservoir to dose volumetric ratio of 3:1 to 6:1.
