Abstract: An oral care composition containing a gel phase, potassium nitrate, a peroxide source, an abrasive, and a fluoride source. Phase separation is not visually perceptible in the oral care composition.

Abstract: Disposable wipes packages containing improved opening and closing arrangements are disclosed. The packages are targeted for usage by adult caregivers and can provide reduced waste in comparison to some currently marketed wipe packages. Different forms of the packages disclosed herein include ratios of characteristics of the package closure fitments and those of the package body of wipes contained therein.

Abstract: A package containing a plurality of disposable absorbent articles, the package being formed of flexible polymeric film, and having a path of perforations or scoring defining a hood opening structure is disclosed. The hood may be configured so as to serve as an effective package reclosure device whereby the package may be used to store the unused supply of articles following opening.

Abstract: A flexible bonding roll including one or more pressure applying members is configured to operatively engage an anvil roll. The one or more pressure applying members include one or more spring elements. The spring elements allow for the one or more pressure applying members to compress as the pressure applying members are engaged by the outer circumferential surface of the anvil roll. The compression of the pressure applying members allows for relatively reduced damage of substrates and equipment during bonding.

Abstract: An oral care composition containing a gel phase, potassium nitrate, an abrasive, and a fluoride source. The gel network phase contains a cold dispersible fatty amphiphile and phase separation is not visually perceptible in the oral care composition.

Abstract: The present invention is directed toward a container closure that prevents accidental initial opening of a container. The closure mechanism includes at least one temporary interlocking mechanism having a two part fastener that engages the moveable part of the closure with the fixed part of the closure. The temporary interlocking mechanism is invisible when the container is closed. It is positioned in a location different from the location of the orifice of the closure or from the path that the liquid follows during dispensing. This temporary interlocking mechanism includes at least one element that breaks or irreversibly deforms during the initial opening of the container. The additional force required to break or to irreversibly deform the breakable or irreversibly deformable element of the temporary interlocking mechanism during the first opening mitigates the risk of accidental opening during manufacturing, shipment or storage of the goods.

Abstract: A method of quantitating of ions in the extracellular polymer substances area of a dental biofilm is an effective way of assessing efficacy of oral care compositions.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of preparing a product composition comprising steps of: Preparing a mixture composition comprising a surfactant and a high melting point fatty compound and benefit agent; Separately preparing an aqueous base composition comprising an aqueous carrier and water soluble polymer, wherein the base composition is substantially free of a detersive surfactant selected from anionic surfactants, zwitterionic surfactant, amphoteric surfactant, and combinations thereof; Mixing the mixture composition and the aqueous base composition to form a discrete particle of the mixture composition dispersed in the aqueous base composition. Alternatively, the method comprises steps of preparing a discrete particle of the mixture composition; and mixing it with the aqueous composition.

Abstract: A siloxane polymer. A composition including the polymer. A method of treating and/or cleaning a situs using the same.

Abstract: A method of producing a multi-layer beauty care product for applying a skin active agent to the skin. The method involves applying a water-soluble fluid to a transfer substrate. The water-soluble fluid contains a skin active agent and is applied to the transfer substrate through an image carrier having a mesh size of 40 to 500. The water-soluble fluid is dried to form a water-soluble film, which is then transferred to a backing layer coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive. The resulting multi-layer beauty care product provides a suitable a means of delivering the skin care active agent to a target portion of skin.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to methods for producing renewable detergent compounds. More specifically, the invention relates to methods for producing detergent intermediates, including bio-linear alkylbenzene (LAB), bio-alcohols, and long chain bio-paraffins, from natural oils.

Abstract: A non-fibrous laundry detergent sheet includes at least one line of frangibility for separating the sheet into smaller sections with different sizes.

Abstract: A method of inhibiting the conversion of choline to trimethylamine (TMA) and lowering TMAO in an individual by providing a composition comprising a compound set forth in Formula (I):

Abstract: A composition including a siloxane polymer. A method of treating and/or cleaning a situs using the same.

Abstract: A method for polymerizing an open-cell foam including exposing an emulsion comprising a photoinitiator to an Ultraviolet light source, partially polymerizing the top surface of the emulsion, and moving the partially polymerized emulsion to a second polymerization stage.

Abstract: A method of making a phosphono-phosphate compound is disclosed. The method involves a first step of mixing a first component comprising a phosphonic acid, a phosphonate or mixtures thereof, with a second component comprising a source of phosphoric acid or phosphate. The mixture has a molar phosphorous ratio of the first component to the second component of from 1:1 to 1:10. The second step involves either physically or chemically dehydrating the mixture to produce a phosphono-phosphate compound.
