Abstract: Cleansing surfactant compositions are provided which cleanse, condition and moisturize the skin and hair and which exhibit a low degree of irritation to the eyes. These cleansing compositions preferably contain the following components:a. a surfactant portion containing:1. a nonionic surfactant;2. an amphoteric surfactant; and3. an anionic surfactant;the total concentration of said nonionic, amphoteric and anionic surfactants being present in the composition in an amount from about 5 to about 20 percent by weight of said cleansing composition; andb. a substantive humectant present in the composition in an amount from about 0.01 to about 3 percent by weight of said cleansing composition.The substantive humectants used in the present invention are preferably cationically charged polyols derived from sugars or sugar derivatives and they further comprise a long chain alkyl or alkenyl group having from about 6 to about 22 carbon atoms.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a clear colorless soap bar with superior mildness, lathering and discoloration resistance. The clear colorless soap consists of a blend of C12-C18 fatty acids neutralized with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and triethanolamine (TEA). Excess TEA acts as a co-solvent and is responsible for clarity of the soap bar. The bar also contains a branched chain acid such as isostearic acid to break up crystallinity and add to product clarity. Low color and color stability are obtained by removing unsaturated fatty acids, and by the use of antioxidants (BHT and Vitamin E). Low levels of C6 to C10 fatty acids provide exceptional mildness.

Abstract: This invention relates to a process for forming metal or non-metal carbide fiber from the corresponding metal or non-metal containing material such as a silicon sol or mixtures thereof and silicon, silicon carbide or silicon oxide, or mixtures of silicon carbide and silicon or silicon oxide.
Abstract: A process of producing a coated monofilament comprising a polymeric monofilament and a coating of an amide melamine wax is disclosed. The coated monofilament exhibits excellent lubricative and wear characteristics and can be reprocessed without adversely affecting the physical properties of the polymeric monofilament.
Abstract: A composition comprising a crosslinked, highly porous body derived from a water-soluble hydrogel polymer, said porous body being characterized in that it has an open-celled three-dimensional lattice structure, a density of less than about 1.0 g/cm.sup.3, a surface area of equal to or greater than about 300 m.sup.2 /g, a compression strength of equal to or less than about 10 percent yield at 300 psi, and an average pore diameter of less than about 500 Angstroms, wherein said hydrogel polymer is selected from the group consisting of alginates, gums, starch, dextrins, agar, gelatins, casein, collagen, polyvinyl alcohol, polyethylenimine, acrylate polymers, starch/acrylate copolymers, and mixtures and copolymers thereof; and a metal extractant.The composition may be used in removing and/or recovering metal ions from aqueous streams.
Abstract: A composition containing a matrix, a fiber, a filler; and a friction modifier; wherein an effective amount of at least one of said components selected from the group consisting of fiber, filler, friction modifier and combinations thereof are cure promoting compounds having an effective aspect ratio such that the composition is rapidly cured in the presence of electromagnetic energy, and a process for curing such compositions.Articles comprised of this composition are suitable for use in the production of friction materials, such as brake pads, drum linings, and clutches.
