Abstract: Apparatus and methods for removing malodor from the air, particularly from confined spaces are disclosed. Such devices and methods are useful for example for storing and preserving food in closed compartments such as refrigerators. The apparatus and methods utilize baking soda as the odor removing substance, either alone, or in combination with another odor removing substance, which may include activated carbon. In one embodiment, the apparatus has a detachable cartridge member which contains baking soda. In one version of this embodiment, the detachable cartridge member is used with an air moving member that draws air through the detachable cartridge member. In one embodiment, the method involves using a detachable cartridge member with an air moving member in one confined space, and using another cartridge member without the air moving member in another compartment of the confined space.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of treating surfaces, to protect or clean said surfaces. The invention more particularly relates to the treatment of interior walls or surfaces, particularly indoor household walls or surfaces, to protect the same from soiling or stains. This invention also relates to compositions, kits and devices for use in the above methods, to protect or clean indoor surfaces. This invention can be applied to various indoor surfaces, such as soft and permeable surfaces, in particular painted walls, wall paper and wallcloth.

Abstract: The present invention relates to air deodorizing devices for removing malodor from the air. Such devices are useful for example for storing and preserving food in closed compartments such as refrigerators. The air deodorizing device of the present invention comprises a cartridge member and an air moving member whereby the cartridge member is detachable from the device.

Abstract: Aqueous, liquid hard surface detergent compositions contain zwitterionic and cationic detergent surfactants and monoethanolamine and/or other specific beta-aminoalkanols as solvents and/or buffers for improved spotting/filming and good cleaning. Some formulas do not contain large amounts of builders and are suitable for general purpose cleaning including cleaning of glass. Other formulas are concentrated and contain chelating agents (detergent builders) to improve stability of more dilute compositions prepared from the concentrated compositions. Some of the formulas, both dilute and concentrated, possess disinfectant properties.

Abstract: A liquid skin cleanser composition with improved lathering characteristics, comprising:(A) 5-30 weight percent anionic surfactant selected from the group consisting of fatty alkyl sulfates, fatty alkyl ether sulfates and mixtures thereof;(B) 0.5-12 weight percent of a lather boosting mixture consisting essentially of free fatty acids, fatty alkylol amide having a ratio of 1:3 to 3:1,(C) water;wherein said free fatty acids have a carbon atom chain length of from 8 to 18 and wherein said fatty acids consist of at least 25% of carbon chain lengths of less than 14, and wherein said lather boosting mixture is present in an amount equal to 10% to 40% of the weight to the surfactant, and wherein said composition has a pH of from about 4.0 to about 7.0.

Abstract: Clear, aqueous liquid skin cleansing compositions comprising saturated and unsaturated potassium soaps and free fatty acid.

Abstract: Means for shaping a stack of discrete interleaved sheets to improve the pop-up type dispensing thereof from a package containing the stack and having a dispensing orifice thereabove. The sheets are characterized by such stiffness that, when arranged in a conventional interleaved stack wherein the interleaved sheet portions are substantially planar and horizontal, during the removal of a given sheet from the stack through the package dispensing orifice the portion of the next succeeding sheet overlying a portion of the sheet being removed tends near its adjacent folded edge to lift away from the sheet being removed, permitting the sheet being removed to slip out from under the succeeding sheet, resulting in failure of the succeeding sheet to achieve its pop-up position through the dispensing orifice.
