Abstract: A system for sensing empty soft drink syrup containers in a soda pop dispensing arrangement is provided that includes at least one soft drink syrup container; a mixing station for mixing water and CO2 with soft drink syrup to make a soda pop mixture; a pump for pumping soft drink syrup to the mixing station and beyond to be dispensed; a CO2 container providing CO2 gas; and a soda pop dispenser apparatus. The system also includes a first tubing transmission line extending between the soft drink syrup container and the pump for carrying soft drink syrup, a second tubing transmission line for carrying soft drink syrup between the pump and the mixing station, and a third tubing transmission line extending between the mixing station and the soda pop dispenser for carrying soda pop to be dispensed.

Abstract: This patent relates to invert water in oil (w/o) and water in silicone (w/si) emulsions made using non PEG/PPG containing polyhydric silicone emulsifiers. The polyhydric silicone polymers are based on allyl trimethylolpropane and pentaerythritol modified organic groups and do not contain any PEG and/or PPG groups (also known as polyethylene glycol and polypropylene glycols, polyethers, polyglycols,). These emulsions show improved emulsification stability and provide a light feel compared to emulsions made with other silicone based PEG/PPG compounds which are commonly used in the field.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a series of alkyl quaternium silicone compounds having both alkyl groups and fatty quaternary nitrogen groups attached in one molecule, and the intermediates formed during the production thereof, that are suitable for use in personal care and other applications. These compounds by virtue of their unique structure provide outstanding micro-emulsions and provide outstanding hair conditioning.

Abstract: The present invention relates to silicone based amine oxides. The silicone amine oxides are non-irritating, high foaming products that are substantive to substrates like fiber, metal hair and skin. They also possess good detergency. They are made by reaction of a suitable silicone compound containing an epoxide functionality, followed by reaction with hydrogen peroxide to make the amine oxide.
