Abstract: A dissolvable surfactant composite according to the present technology is configured to provide a waste-free flexible and durable composite article useful for various single use applications, including as a single-use image bearing article. The dissolvable surfactant composite may have at least a dual capability, such that when the composite article is no longer needed, the dissolvable surfactant composite may readily dissolve and wash away upon application of water or other liquid solution, such that generation of waste that must be disposed of as trash or through traditional recycling processes is avoided. In some aspects the dissolvable surfactant composite may be adapted to provide cleaning compositions for different applications upon dissolution. Thus, in such aspects, the dissolvable surfactant composite not only avoids waste generation, but may also provide dual utility as both a composite article, as well as a cleaning solution.

Abstract: The technology relates to a beverage cartridge. The beverage cartridge may comprise a filter, an enclosure, a coating, and a supplement. The filter may have a predetermined permeability to permit a fluid to flow therethrough. The enclosure may at least substantially surrounding said filter. The coating may be arranged on at least one predetermined portion of the filter, wherein the coating decreases the permeability of the filter to control the flow of the fluid therethrough. The supplement may be arranged on the filter, the supplement adapted to be dissolved or dispersed in the fluid.

Abstract: A face mask includes a non-woven fabric filter configured to be worn on a user's face. A composition with anti-viral properties is arranged on the fabric. The composition preferably includes anti-viral oils and an anti-viral metal such as copper or copper oxide.

Abstract: The invention is directed to compositions and methods for preparing dissolvable compositions. The dissolvable compositions include a plurality of dissolvable layers, where the dissolvable layers convey a message when associated with a solvent.

Abstract: Printed delivery devices are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a printed delivery device (100) includes a support substrate. A first printed composition (102), including a first supplement, is coated onto the support substrate (202) and a second printed composition (102) disposed on the first printed composition. A decorative film is applied to one or more of the first printed composition, second printed composition, or the support substrate (602).

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a multi-chamber cartridge. The multi-chamber cartridge may include two chambers separated by a membrane. The two chambers may include a first chamber storing a first substance is positioned adjacent a second chamber. The multi-chamber cartridge may further include a piercing mechanism mounted within the first chamber. Upon an external force being applied to the piercing mechanism, the piercing mechanism pierces the membrane to allow the first substance to move to the second chamber.

Abstract: A system for broadcasting a sound and/or visual concerning a subject to a person upon detecting a presence in the vicinity of a design indicative of the subject. The system includes a sensor proximal to the design. When the sensor detects a person or object proximal the design, a sound or visual concerning the subject of the design is broadcast. In one implementation, the design is a floor advertisement for a product, and when a person steps on the floor advertisement an audible promotional message concerning the product is broadcast within earshot of the person.

Abstract: A credit card comprises a plastic layer, a processor, and a keypad. The keypad provides the ability to input a code (e.g., a personal identification number (PIN) code) to the processor as a part of validating the transaction. Illustratively, the entry of a valid PIN code may cause the processor to trigger an alerting device as an indicator to the merchant that the holder of the credit card is authorized for its use.
