Abstract: A non-automated dispenser adapted to passively emanate a volatile material at room temperatures via a membrane, in particularly concerned with the emanation of a volatile material such as a fragrance/air freshener, an insecticide, a disinfectant, a bactericide, a fungicide and/or a medicament.

Abstract: An air treatment device is described comprising: a housing having at least one air inlet and at least one air outlet with at least two discrete air passageways therebetween; wherein in a first of said passageways there is located a fan and at least one air filter retaining means arranged to releasably retain, in use, an air filter within one passageway; and wherein in a second of said passageways there is located at least one refill securing means arranged to releasably securing a refill of air treatment agent and emanation means in the form of one or more heaters; and wherein, in use, airflow through said at least two passageways is separate.

Abstract: A method of dispensing periodic metered doses of a single phase aerosol composition wherein: the aerosol composition comprises a propellant and at least one active component selected from the group comprising fragrances, perfumes, air fresheners, deodorants and sanitisers; the metered dose spray rate is between 0.1 and 2 g/s of aerosol composition; and the mean particle size of each dose of the aerosol composition is between 1 ?m and 40 ?m.

Abstract: Kits, applicators and methods for treatment of a surface involve sequential application to a surface of a hydrogel precursor and a crosslinking component to form a removable hydrogel patch on the surface followed by removal of the patch. The method is suitable for removal of a stain from a surface.

Abstract: This invention describes a surface treatment composition, preferably for personal use, comprising at least one surfactant and at least two different organic acids and/or salts or organic acids, and wherein the total concentration of the organic acids and/or salts in the composition is at least 0.5% (w/v). The invention further extends to a method of treating a surface, preferably hair or skin, to remove dirt and to remove or inhibit microbial growth.
