  • Publication number: 20140020188
    Abstract: This invention relates to compositions comprising hydrophobically modified cationic polymers as well as processes of making and using such compositions. Such hydrophobically modified cationic polymers may be added to the composition in a variety of ways including, but not limited to, as a component of a particle. Advantages of such compositions include the ability to selectively increase the deposition of benefit agents without effectively increasing deposition of undesired materials.

  • Publication number: 20130273338
    Abstract: A stretch composite having one or more elastomeric members disposed on at least one region of an extensible fibrous substrate to provide stretch properties to a targeted region of the substrate. The composite has been incrementally stretched to at least partially break up the structure of the substrate in order to reduce its resistance to stretch. The stretch composites are useful for disposable and durable articles, such as disposable absorbent articles including diapers, pull-on diapers, training pants, incontinence briefs, catamenial garments, baby bibs, and the like, and durable articles like garments including sportswear, outerwear and the like. Also disclosed are methods of forming such stretch composites.
