Abstract: Systems, compositions and methods for fabric laundering comprising selected organosilicones which are formulated into microemulsions for improved deposition onto fabrics to provide fabric care benefits.

Abstract: Compositions for treating fabric. The compositions of the present invention may be used to improve various properties of fabrics such as the olfactory perception and/or appearance of the fabric without requiring that the fabrics be put through an entire standard laundry process. Methods of treating the fabrics are also disclosed.

Abstract: Systems and methods useful for treating a fabric article with a composition comprising polyol-based fabric care materials and a dispersing medium. The dispersing medium is a liquid at room temperature and has a flash point of greater than about 65° C. Specifically, the composition may be dispensed to treat fabric articles in an appliance during the fabric article drying process.

Abstract: A product and process for laundering delicate or dry-clean only garments in a conventional home washing machine. The process represents a home version of the commercial wet-cleaning processes for cleaning of delicate garments. The product may comprise a liquid cleaning composition, a wash pretreatment composition, a wash pretreatment applicator, an apparatus for dispensing a rinse cycle conditioner and a flexible wrap container within which the garments are contained during washing.

Abstract: A product and process for laundering delicate or dry-clean only garments in a washing machine, such as a conventional home washing machine. The process may utilize a garment container, such as a flexible wrap to protect the garments. The process also includes at least one cleaning composition specially formulated for delicate garments. The cleaning composition(s) can be in a number of suitable forms, and can be introduced into the process in a number of different manners. The products used in the process may be provided in the form of a kit. The kit may also include a pretreatment applicator.

Abstract: The present invention relates to fabric care compositions, methods, and articles of manufacture for treating fabrics, comprising an effective amount of fabric care polysaccharides with globular structure. Optionally, the composition can contain other ingredients to improve performance and formulatability. The compositions can be applied to fabric by spraying, soaking, dipping, and can also be used for pre-wash treatment, adding to the wash cycle, adding to the rinse cycle, and/or adding to the drying cycle. Preferably the compositions are applied from spray containers which preferably are in association with instructions for use.

Abstract: A product and process for laundering delicate or dry-clean only garments in a conventional home washing machine. The process represents a home version of the commercial wet-cleaning processes for cleaning of delicate garments. The product comprises a liquid combination washing/conditioning composition and optionally a wash pretreatment composition, a flexible wrap container within which the garments are contained during washing and a pretreatment applicator.

Abstract: Compositions and methods for increasing the stability and/or efficacy of chlorine dioxide, and particularly chlorine dioxide generated via electrolysis of chlorite. The present invention further relates to electrolysis devices for producing chlorine dioxide, comprising the stabilizing and efficacy-increasing compositions of the present invention, as well as methods of using both the chlorine dioxide-stabilizing and efficacy-increasing compositions and devices disclosed herein.

Abstract: The present invention relates to treating compositions, preferably laundry and/or color care compositions comprising polysaccharides, and methods of using such compositions to provide improved color appearance and/or pill prevention and/or abrasion resistance and/or wrinkle resistance and/or shrinkage resistance benefits, while at the same time providing improved cleaning benefits, over laundry and/or fabric and/or color care compositions without such polysaccharides.
