Abstract: A method of manufacturing and compositions required to produce a pH indicating absorbent pad. The method includes preparing a pH indicating dye composition, preparing a binder composition containing an emulsion polymer and surfactant and a pH indicating dye composition, then at least partially immersing or otherwise saturating nonwoven fibers, including at least some cellulose or cellulose-derived fibers, into the pH indicating binder composition, producing a pH indicating nonwoven material. The method further includes bonding the pH indicating nonwoven material to an absorbent core to produce the pH indicating absorbent pad.
Abstract: A brush for applying a cleansing compound with an inner body having a tube portion with outer proximal threads. The tube portion has an opening for filling the tube portion with the cleansing compound and an enclosed bottom having a central guide tooth receptacle and a plurality of discharge holes. The brush has a brush portion including a plate having at least one upstanding standoff, a central guide tooth, and a plurality of depending bristles. The plate has a plurality of dispensing holes and an upstanding collar configured to secure the plate against the enclosed bottom of the inner body. The central guide tooth fits into the central guide tooth receptacle to guide rotation of the brush portion with respect to the inner body. In an open position, the plurality of discharge and dispensing holes are aligned so that the cleansing compound passes into the plurality of depending bristles.
