  • Patent number: 12209189
    Abstract: A vehicle surface treatment composition includes a colloidal inorganic oxide dispersion or a soluble silicate amenable to application to both porous and semi-porous vehicle hard surfaces to provide a multi-surface protective barrier that imparts water repellency and weathering protection properties to the vehicle finish. The composition provides a hard surface cleaning and forms a coating to the applied surface. The compositions provide treated surface properties that include keeping clean, scratch/mar defense, bug repellency, UV protection, and weathering defense. The compositions create treated surfaces that are highly smooth and lubricious which provide enhanced protection, while achieving a high luster finish with a streak free appearance. The composition is readily applied through resort to a conventional trigger spray application, propellant aerosol, or a sponge or cloth for wipe application onto the vehicle surface.

  • Patent number: 11820907
    Abstract: A tire dressing composition is provided that includes petroleum distillates in which a polybutene or isobutene/butene copolymer is dissolved to form a clear solution. In the water-based approach, the polybutene or isobutene/butene copolymer was emulsified by a surfactant. A wetting agent is also present in the composition to render the composition self-levelling. The sprayable tire dressing composition provides a high gloss and good wettability to a tire surface that develops a uniform coating on the treated tire surface.

  • Publication number: 20230241003
    Abstract: An antimicrobial wipe is disclosed comprising a substrate and an antimicrobial composition. The antimicrobial composition contains a sulfonated block copolymer having an ion exchange capacity (IEC) of >0.5 meq/g, and (ii) a solvent system. The solvent system contains a mixture of two or more solvents selected from the group consisting of organic solvents, inorganic solvents, terpene-based compounds, and decarboxylated rosin acids. The antimicrobial wipe is in the form of a fabric, a sponge, a toilette, and the like. The sulfonated block copolymer is partially or fully dissolved in the solvent system, such that when the wipe is in contact with a target surface, the sulfonated block copolymer is imparted from the wipe onto the surface forming a coating layer. The coating layer causes a reduction in a microbe concentration by at least 1 log10 CFU (colony forming units) within 120 minutes upon contact.

  • Patent number: 11591551
    Abstract: A composition is provided for a non-aqueous foaming aerosol cleaner or lubricant. Foam builders, especially silicone glycol copolymers, are used to generate high density foam of the solvent-based formula. A cleaning product variant may be introduced via an air intake route for loosening deposits in an internal combustion engine. The high foam aerosol product dispenses easily without causing engine stalling. A process of lubricating a target substrate is also provided.
