Abstract: An insert for a bra, wherein the insert adaptable to the inner shape of the cup comprises at least one zone storing an active ingredient and delivering to the skin, and at least one breathing compensation zone, wherein the zones selectively deliver active ingredients only or act in a compensating manner, or carry out both functions simultaneously.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for separating volatile components from a base material. Specifically, the apparatus comprises a gas tight reactor, an induction heating vessel, a plate and evacuating means for evacuating volatile components from the reactor. The method comprises the steps of heating the material from which the volatile components are to be removed by induction heating in a gas tight vessel. More specifically, the area surrounding the object within the gas tight vessel is filled with metal filings which are then heated by induction heating. The metal filings thus inductively heat the object, causing any volatile components therein to be released. The volatile components are then evacuated from the gas tight vessel and the metal filings removed.

Abstract: A method for separating volatile components from a particulate base material by induction heating, which method comprises: heating a particulate base material in an induction heating vessel within a gas-tight reactor by induction heating; agitating said particulate base material by induction heated agitator means; introducing inert gas into said base material; and evacuating volatilized components from said particulate base material.A method for separating volatile components from a solid object by induction heating, which method comprises: positioning the solid object in an induction vessel of a gas-tight induction heating reactor, so that the object is surrounded by metal filings; heating said object surrounded by said metal filings by induction heating; injecting an inert gas into said metal filings; evacuating volatile components from within said reactor; and removing metal filings from the object.
