Patent number: 9464261Abstract: The present invention provides detergent compositions, essentially free of peroxygen or chlorine bleach compounds, containing one or more surfactants, one or more builders, one or more enzymes and one or more low MW (e.g., 0.8-25 kDa) polyethyleneimine (PEI) polymers or salts thereof, and methods of producing such compositions. The compositions of the invention provide certain benefits in cleaning of textiles (particularly fabrics including clothing), hard surfaces and dishware and utensils, including enhanced removal of certain difficult-to-remove stains such as chocolate pudding and grass, as well as of polyphenolic stains such as cherry juice, blueberry juice, red wine, tea and coffee. The invention also provides methods of using these compositions in laundry, hard surface cleaning and dishwashing applications.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 2011Date of Patent: October 11, 2016Assignee: The Sun Products CorporationInventors: Farid Nekmard, Napaporn Komesvarakul, Orsolya Varga-Baragh, Guanglin Sun

Publication number: 20160140581Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for determining an expected market share for a generic product, are provided. A market share simulator receives a selected category for a selected attribute of a generic product. Based on the selected category and the selected attribute for the product, the market share simulator determines the utility of the selected attribute, and a sum of a plurality of utilities for the selected attribute associated with a plurality of products, wherein the generic product and the plurality of products compete for a portion of a market share. Market share simulator then compares the utility of the selected attribute to the sum of the plurality of utilities to generate an expected market share for the generic product.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 13, 2015Publication date: May 19, 2016Applicant: The Sun Products CorporationInventors: Margaret HEILE, Jeffery Clark STRONG, Sandra C. SHIFRIN

Patent number: 9222059Abstract: The present invention provides liquid cleaning compositions useful in cold water and hard water laundry applications, and methods for making and using such compositions. The compositions of the invention use surfactants or surfactant blends, such as ?-sulfofatty acid esters or mixtures thereof (optionally along with one or more additional components), that have increased solubility/stability at cold temperatures, at higher-than-usual concentrations, and/or in hard water, with the composition remaining as a clear liquid. In certain embodiments, the compositions of the invention may be provided in the form of a unit dose, for example in a water-soluble pack or pouch. In use, the compositions of the invention result in an enhanced detergency along with a reduced amount of residue remaining in the machine, on laundered garments or cleaned dishware or hard surfaces, and on the body in personal care settings, and demonstrate a longer shelf-life, particularly when stored or used in colder temperatures.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2012Date of Patent: December 29, 2015Assignee: The Sun Products CorporationInventors: Adam W. Germain, Calogero A. DiStefano, Guanglin Sun, Charles Crawford, Igor Anisimov, Robert M. Doris

Publication number: 20140054831Abstract: Tooling for manufacturing one or more unit dose pouches including a mold, with a cavity formed within the mold and a divider removably fixed within the cavity to vary the volume of the cavity. The divider includes a sealing surface for sealing material disposed in the cavity. The sealing surface may extend between the walls of the cavities to create a multiple compartment unit dose. Alternatively, the sealing surface may form a decorative seal pattern in the pouch without separating the unit dose into compartments. The removably fixed divider may be replaced with other dividers having different sealing surfaces without the need for the user to change the mold or cavity itself.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 22, 2013Publication date: February 27, 2014Applicant: The Sun Products CorporationInventor: The Sun Products Corporation
