Abstract: The present invention relates to hair coloring and hair bleaching compositions comprising a source of carbonate ions, at least one oxidizing agent and a specified polymer thickener wherein the composition is free of a source of radical scavengers. The compositions surprisingly provide improved hair colorant and bleaching compositions which deliver improved lift, lightening and color delivery whilst minimizing damage which are easy to manufacture and have long shelf life stability.

Abstract: A fuel or fuel blendstock for jet, gas turbine, rocket, and diesel engines, particularly jet, rocket, and diesel engines that utilizes components of conventional petroleum not currently utilized for jet, gas turbine, rocket, and diesel fuels, such as benzene, linear, and lightly branched alkanes, that may be alkylated with aromatic moieties to make monoaromatics for use in jet and diesel fuels. Additionally, a fuel having such monoaromatics having multiple desired properties such as higher flash point, low pour point, increased density, better lubricity, aerobic degradability, reduction in toxicity, and additionally can deliver benefits in blendstocks.

Abstract: Disclosed are aqueous conditioning shampoo compositions which comprise an anionic detersive surfactant component; from about 0.025% to about 5% by weight of an water soluble or dispersible, cationic, non crosslinked, deposition or conditioning polymer; the conditioning shampoo may additionally comprise dispersed, liquid, droplets of a water insoluble, hair conditioning agent having a volume average particle diameter of from about 5 microns to about 125 microns. A homopolymer has a cationic charge density from about from about 2 meq/gm to about 4 meq/gm or a cationic charge density of from about 5 meq/gm to about 10 meq/gm; or an average molecular weight of at least 500,000. A copolymer is formed from one or more cationic monomer units and one or more nonionic monomer units or monomer units bearing a negative charge wherein the subsequent charge of the copolymer is positive.

Abstract: An alkyl glyceryl sulfonate and/or sulfate surfactant mixture of oligomers and a detergent composition using the same to provide improved starch soil cleaning.

Abstract: A fuel or fuel blendstocks for jet, gas turbine, rocket, and diesel engines, particularly jet and rocket engines utilizing components of conventional petroleum not currently utilized for jet, gas turbine, rocket, and diesel fuels, such as benzene, butanes, butanes, and methyl tert butyl ether (MTBE) alkylated with aromatic moieties to make monoaromatics used in jet and diesel fuels. Additionally, a fuel having such monoaromatics has multiple desired properties such as higher flash point, low pour point, increased density, better lubricity, aerobic degradability, reduction in toxicity, and additionally can deliver benefits in blendstocks.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition with a metal-complexing dye and surfactant for giving a color change when in contact with selected metal ions.

Abstract: A method of washing dishware/tableware in an automatic dishwashing machine, the method comprising simultaneously or sequentially delivering quantities of a particulate or densified particulate automatic dishwashing product and of an anhydrous liquid, gel or paste form dishwashing detergent auxiliary contained in separate compartments of a multi-compartment pouch into the same or different cycles of the dishwashing machine. The method provides improved cleaning performance and product stability.

Abstract: Personal care compositions comprising a cleansing phase and a benefit phase. These products are intended to provide a multi-phase personal care composition that is packaged in physical contact while remaining stable and providing improved in-use and after-use hair and skin benefits.

Abstract: A multi-liquid phase composition wherein said phases are visually distinctive. These compositions combine multiple phases for creating personal care compositions.

Abstract: In order to acoustically seal a spray cap, a cap 7 is provided with a button 6 having an elastic connection 49 between button 6 and cap 7 in order to achieve an acoustic seal 49 of cap 7. In this context, seal 49 is designed as a crimped device. A hinge 5 of button 6 is formed in an analogously crimped manner in order to be able to actuate it together with seal 49 in a smooth-running manner.

Abstract: A foam-generating kit contains a non-aerosol container with a foam-generating dispenser and a high surfactant microemulsion or protomicroemulsion composition having at least 20 wt % of a surfactant system and 0.5 wt % glycerol.
