  • Patent number: 11014699
    Abstract: An aerosol dispenser, outer container for an aerosol dispenser and a preform for an outer container, each include an open neck at the top and a closed end bottom. The open neck may include a first surface having a first surface diameter, a second surface disposed interior to the first surface and having a second surface diameter less than the first surface diameter, and a transition distinguishing the first surface from the second surface. For a dispenser and a container, a product delivery device may be disposed on the second surface and not interfere with a valve operable by a user when the valve is attached to the open neck in engagement with the first surface. At least one of the first and the second surfaces may be a sealing surface to prevent escape of propellant from the outer container to ambient when a valve is attached.

  • Patent number: 11013678
    Abstract: A skin care product is provided. The skin care product includes a multi-component skin care composition disposed in a multi-chamber container. The multi-component skin care composition includes an aqueous carrier component and a nicotinamide riboside component disposed in separate chambers, which prevents these components from contacting one another prior to use. The aqueous carrier component and the nicotinamide riboside component can be separated from one another by one or more fluid impermeable dividing members and/or activatable elements, which upon activation enable contact between the aqueous carrier component and nicotinamide riboside component.

  • Patent number: 11007092
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to absorbent articles and methods for assembling absorbent articles with substrates and/or components that include graphics with zones of relatively high print densities and zones of relatively low print densities. In turn, the zones of relatively low print densities may be positioned in regions that are subject to various manufacturing transformations during the assembly process. As such, the graphics may be positioned and/or printed in such a manner so as to reduce noticeable visible results of imprecise and/or inconsistent manufacturing operations performed in areas where the graphics are located.

  • Patent number: 11008433
    Abstract: A method for separating and purifying polymers of a reclaimed product (rP) is disclosed. The rP is contacted at an elevated temperature and pressure, with an extraction solvent to produce an extracted rP (erP). A solvent, at conditions sufficient to solubilize the first polymer, contacts the erP to produce a solution, which is purified at an elevated temperature and pressure by filtering it and contacting it with a solid medium to produce a purified solution of the first polymer. The purified polymer is then separated from the purified solution, and the method steps are repeated until all polymers are separated and purified.
