Abstract: A transparent personal cleansing composition for skin and hair care comprises non-ionic and anionic surfactants with hydrophobe of lauryl group in the vegetable oil which exhibit enhanced foaming and lather capacity in comparison to the marketed products. The personal care composition of the present invention avoids harsh or toxic anionic ether sulphate type surfactants, eco-toxic non-ionic fatty alcohol ethoxylates, fatty alkanol amides and a host of other ingredients that are not derived from renewable sources.
Abstract: Rinse-off cleansing compositions can include surfactant, perfume, solvent, and water, wherein the rinse-off cleansing composition has a G? of at least about 25 Pa and/or is not a ringing gel.

Abstract: An all-natural, moisturizing soap composition that allow for high vegetable butter fat content while also being capable of processing for high quality bar soap (moisturizing properties without sticky pellets, brittleness, cracking, and/or inhibition of lather formation) and a method for making the same and other soaps is provided. The soap composition may contain up to 50% vegetable butter fat(s). The semi-continuous process for saponification provides a fast and energy efficient alternative to prior art methods, while also allowing for high quality bar soap that contains a high content (up to 50%) of vegetable butter fat(s).
Abstract: Water-soluble refill dose articles for forming a cleanser have a water-soluble film defining a first compartment enclosing a first composition and a second compartment enclosing a second composition, which are individual separate articles or are part of an integral article. The first composition has a rheology modifier, a first surfactant, 10% or less by weight water, 20% or less by weight glycol, and the first surfactant does not activate the rheology modifier. The second compartment has an alkaline substance that when mixed with the first composition and water activates the rheology modifier to increase the viscosity of a resulting cleanser and 10% or less by weight water. When the article is diluted in water at a 1:1 to 1:20 ratio, it produces a cleanser having a viscosity within a range of 2000 cps to 50,000 cps.
Abstract: A polymer composition has at least one thermoplastic polymer material and a dielectric liquid of improved polarity, to a process for preparing said polymer composition, to a cable comprising at least one electrically insulating layer obtained from the polymer composition, and to a process for preparing the cable.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition comprising one or more cationic surfactants, one or more amphoteric or zwitterionic surfactants, one or more silicones, one or more cationic polymers, one or more fatty alcohols and one or more clays.

Abstract: A surfactant composition includes a surfactant component including an alcohol ethoxy sulfate having a C8-C20 backbone ethoxylated with from about 1 to about 10 moles of ethylene oxide and is present in an amount of from about 20 to about 80 weight percent actives. The surfactant composition also includes water present in a total amount of about 10 to about 35 weight percent. The surfactant composition further includes an alkyl alcohol present in an amount of from about 3 to about 10 weight percent. The surfactant composition also includes a glycol ether present in an amount of about 2 to about 20 weight percent. The surfactant composition has a viscosity of less than about 5,000 cps measured at 20° C.
Abstract: The invention discloses cleaning compositions which employ a synergistic combination of an ester solvent, preferably a fatty acid methyl ester in combination with one or more linear alkyl amines. The alkyl amines act as to remove and suspend organic oils which have been burnt or adhered to a surface with heat and may even be used alone as a soil removal agent. The cleaning compositions have particular use in cleaning of distillation towers associated with biofuel, and vegetable oil refining, but also find use in cleaning ovens, food cooking surfaces and even dry cleaning.

Abstract: Perfumed latex soap is prepared from the following components in parts by weight: 2-5 parts of natural latex, 5-12 parts of glycerin, 8-10 parts of sodium dodecyl sulfate, 5-10 parts of coconut oil, 6-8 parts of palm oil, 1-3 parts of titanium dioxide, 0.8-1.2 parts of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, 0.6-0.8 part of sulfur, and 0.8-1.0 part of radix asparagine essential oil. The perfumed latex soap is mild, safe, and non-irritating and has aroma of the natural latex. In addition, the added radix asparagine essential oil can effectively improve the skin condition of a human body without causing the human body to generate dependence. The temperature of the mixing tank in which the perfumed latex soup is prepared is convenient to adjust and materials in a mixing cylinder can be agitated and sheared during agitating, so that the materials are fully mixed and the quality of a product is improved.
Abstract: A bar soap composition is made from ingredients comprising: at least one cleanser chosen from soap and a first surfactant; and at least one taurate surfactant chosen from a salt of a fatty acid amide of taurine, a salt of a fatty acid amide of N-methyl taurine, and combinations thereof. The taurate surfactant is different than the first surfactant. The composition is in a solid bar form. Other personal care and home care products that include the taurate surfactants are also disclosed.
