Abstract: Paper-machine clothing comprising a woven structure and a filling component. A filament and a second filament of the woven structure intersect in a weave pattern contact each other. Void spaces produced by the intersection of the first filament and the second filament are substantially filled by a durable filling component. The durable component adheres to at most one of the first and second filaments.

Abstract: This invention relates to an absorbent article comprising superabsorbent material comprising superabsorbent polymers that are mixed or coated with a surface-modifying material that renders the superabsorbent material highly hydrophilic, providing the material with a FRH ratio of at least 1.10. The invention also relates to an absorbent article comprising a superabsorbent material, comprising superabsorbent polymers and a material that has (and provides) radiation-induced hydrophilicity.
Abstract: The invention is directed to aqueous liquid laundry detergent compositions for cleaning and imparting fabric care benefits to fabrics laundered therewith. Such compositions comprise (A) at least one detersive surfactant; (B) droplets of a silicone blend comprising a nitrogen-containing amino or ammonium functionalized polysiloxane and a nitrogen-free non-functionalized polysiloxane; and (C) at least one additional non-silicone laundry adjunct selected from detersive enzymes, dye transfer inhibiting agents, optical brighteners, suds suppressors and combinations thereof. The functionalized polysiloxane component of the silicone blend has a relatively low, i.e., less than 30 mol %, content of reactive/curable groups, a nitrogen content which ranges from 0.05% to 0.50% by weight and a viscosity which ranges from 0.00002 m2/s to 0.2 m2/s. The nitrogen-free, non-functionalized polysiloxane material ranges in viscosity from 0.01 m2/sec to 2.0 m2/sec.

Abstract: The invention is directed to liquid laundry detergent compositions for treating non-keratinous substrates under domestic wash conditions, such composition comprise (A) at least one surfactant selected from the group consisting of anionic surfactants, nonionic surfactants, zwitterionic surfactants, amphoteric surfactants, and combinations thereof; (B) a silicone blend comprising a non-functionalized silicone and a functionalized silicone; and (C) at least one additional non-silicone laundry adjunct selected from the group consisting of detergent builders, detersive enzymes, dye transfer inhibiting agents, and combinations thereof. The claimed compositions are further essentially free of any coacervate phase-forming polymer and essentially free of any cationic deposition aid.

Abstract: A method for controlling a calendering system having a first roll and a second roll is disclosed. The first roll has a first roll torque controller and a first roll speed controller. An exemplary method comprises the steps of: (a) setting said first roll at a desired process speed with said first roll speed controller; (b) determining a target torque of said first roll; (c) contactingly engaging said first and second rolls; (d) measuring an actual torque of said first roll; (e) comparing said target torque and said actual torque; and, (f) adjusting a speed of said first roll with said first roll torque controller to maintain said target torque of said first roll according to said comparison of said target torque and said actual torque.
