Abstract: The present invention relates to treatment compositions containing polymer systems that provide stability and benefit agent deposition as well as methods of making and using same. Such treatment compositions may be used for example as through the wash and/or through the rinse fabric enhancers as well as unit dose treatment compositions.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatuses for printing and curing energy curable inks printed on a substrate having an onset temperature Tonset (C°). The printing systems may include a printing station and a light source. During operation, the printing station deposits energy curable ink onto a first surface of the substrate to define a printed region, and the light source directs ultraviolet light onto the first surface of the substrate to define an illumination zone on the first surface of the substrate. The substrate is advanced in a machine direction to advance the printed region through the illumination zone to cure the energy curable ink. While the printed region advances through the illumination zone, the ultraviolet light heats the substrate from an initial temperature Tin (C°) entering the illumination zone to a maximum temperature Tmax (C°), wherein Tmax (C°)?Tonset (C°).

Abstract: A deflection member that includes a reinforcing member that includes a resin coating, and at least one tile fastened to the resin coating.

Abstract: An aerosol dispenser, an outer container for an aerosol dispenser, and a preform for an outer container. The aerosol dispenser, outer container, and preform each have a neck including a crimp ring. The crimp ring may be configured to receive a valve cup, which is clinched thereto. The crimp ring includes one or more vents. The vents may be used to control overpressurization within the dispenser. The vents may be exposed to pressurized propellant and product due to deformation of the neck during undue overpressurization. The vents allow propellant and/or product to be released therethrough in the event of overpressurization.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a closure for a container, the closure having an asymmetrical protrusion. The invention further relates to a kit of parts for assembling such a closure.

Abstract: A method for producing a composite multi-layered absorbent article. At least two of the layers include a colored region.

Abstract: Oral care compositions and/or unit-dose oral care compositions with a metal ion source. Oral care compositions and/or unit-dose oral care compositions with a high average metal ion uptake. Oral care compositions and/or unit-dose oral care compositions with a tin ion source. Oral care compositions and/or unit-dose oral care compositions with a high average tin ion uptake.

Abstract: A method of inhibiting copper deposition on hair and facilitating the removal of copper deposited on hair including applying to the hair a shampoo composition having histidine, rinsing the shampoo composition from the hair, applying to the hair a conditioner composition comprising histidine, and rinsing the conditioner composition from the hair.

Abstract: A tray and cover for storing tubes, such as collapsible tubes. A tray is used to store and transport tubes, the tubes being similarly orientated and arranged side by side in parallel alignment and being held in position by opposing pairs of tray sidewalls. A tray may also be used with a cover.

Abstract: A method of treating the hair including providing a concentrated hair care composition in a foam dispenser. The concentrated hair care composition includes one or more silicones, perfume, and less than 6% high melting point fatty compounds. The method also includes dispensing the concentrated hair care composition from the foam dispenser as a dosage of foam; applying the foam to the hair; and rinsing the foam from the hair. The foam has a density of from about 0.025 g/cm3 to about 0.40 g/cm3 when dispensed from the foam dispenser. The one or more silicones form a silicone layer that has a Targeted Deposition Index of from about 0.8 to about 1.6.

Abstract: A valve for an aerosol dispenser. The valve has a housing as a chassis for other components of the valve. The housing perimetrically joins the valve to an outer container for the aerosol dispenser. The housing has a hole with a moving valve stem to selectively dispense product, upon actuation. The housing, or portions thereof, may be crystallized, to provide strength and dimensional stability, to reduce leakage.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a closure for a container, the closure comprising three positions. The invention further relates to a kit of parts for assembling such a closure. The present invention relates to a closure comprising an engine and a shroud, the closure adapted to attach to the opening of a container to define an interior and an outside; wherein the shroud and engine are adapted to engage; wherein the closure can take a first position, a second position and a third position, wherein: a. the shroud moves relative to the engine in a linear fashion and a different minimum force is required to move the closure from the first position to the second position than to move the closure from the second position to the first position; or b. the shroud moves relative to the engine in a linear fashion and a different minimum force is required to move the closure from the second position to the third position than to move the closure from the third position to the second position; or c. both a. and b.

Abstract: In methods of making disposable, flexible containers for fluent products, methods of sealing the flexible containers when such containers include expansion materials, are disclosed. The methods include forming a partially completed container blank that has layers of flexible materials. The layered structure includes a first space for a fluent product, and a second space for an expansion material. The methods of sealing the flexible containers include adding an expansion material into the second space and pressing parts of at least some of the layers together to close off the second space.
