  • Patent number: 10808209
    Abstract: A composition is provided that includes a universal hydrophobic active ingredient of modified silicone polymer forming a microemulsion in water, and a water miscible organic solvent to produce a clear and transparent solution that cleans and leaves a hydrophobic film on a glass substrate when dried. A process of applying the same is also provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 15, 2013
    Date of Patent: October 20, 2020
    Assignee: ILLINOIS TOOL WORKS, INC.
    Inventors: Tze-Lee Phang, Liliana Minevski, Janice Crayton
  • Patent number: 9273273
    Abstract: A wash pod is provided that includes unit dose of anhydrous wash concentrate surfactant containing at least one cationic surfactant and at least one nonionic surfactant in water soluble hygroscopic polymeric package containing the concentrate. The film encapsulates the wash formula unit dose and dissolves when placed in a bucket of water while also being chemically and physically strong enough to hold a more preferred alkaline formula as well as to remain stable during storage is provided. A low volatile organic compound (VOC) car wash formula that is highly concentrated with a low water content and contains nonionic and cationic surfactants to promote cleaning, foaming and beading, while also containing a small amount of carnauba wax is also provided. The formulation of the car wash detergent provides a streak free low residue finish on a cleaned surface.
