Patent number: 10689601Abstract: An antifoam granule includes a carrier and an antifoam compound deposited on the carrier. The antifoam granule is formed using a method that includes providing an emulsion and contacting the emulsion with a carrier to deposit the antifoam compound on the carrier and form the antifoam granule. The emulsion includes an oil phase, an aqueous phase, and a silicone polyether. The oil phase includes an antifoam compound. The antifoam compound includes a hydrophobic fluid and a hydrophobic filler dispersed in the hydrophobic fluid. The aqueous phase includes a binder and water. The emulsion is formed using a method that includes combining the oil phase, the aqueous phase, and the silicone polyether to form the emulsion. The antifoam granule is also utilized in a method of facilitating rinsing of a detergent from a substrate that includes applying the detergent, including the antifoam granule, to the substrate and rinsing the substrate.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2018Date of Patent: June 23, 2020Assignee: DOW SILICONES CORPORATIONInventors: Anick Colson, Laurence Gallez, Christel Simon, Nicolas Ziolkowski

Patent number: 8691880Abstract: A non-aqueous silicone emulsion is provided. It comprises a continuous phase of a polar organic liquid containing droplets of an organopolysiloxane dispersed therein. An organic wax, which has a melting point in the range 40 to 100° C. and is sparingly soluble in the polar organic liquid at 25° C., is dispersed in the polar organic liquid continuous phase as a network of interconnected particles which stabilizes the organopolysiloxane droplets in emulsion in the polar organic liquid. A process for the production of the emulsion is also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2009Date of Patent: April 8, 2014Assignee: Dow Corning CorporationInventors: Severine Cauvin, Anick Colson, Tatiana Dimitrova, Jean-Paul Lecomte

Patent number: 8618039Abstract: A granular material for use in the treating of textile materials, comprising (i) a silicone material having at least one nitrogen containing substituent, (ii) an aluminosilicate carrier and (iii) a binder, preferably in conjunction with a surface active material. Also described is a process for preparing such granular materials, which comprises forming a water-in-oil emulsion of component (i) in conjunction with component (iii) by dispersing and agitating said components in water, followed by depositing said emulsion onto a free flowing powder form of component (ii), for example by spraying, and removing sufficient water from the product to obtain a free flowing granular material. The granules are useful in a process of treating textile materials in an aqueous medium, particularly where the textile material is denim. Preferably the granular material is added into the finishing steps of denim such as the desizing, the fading or the softening steps and helps with avoiding backstaining.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2007Date of Patent: December 31, 2013Assignees: Dow Corning India, Dow Corning CorporationInventors: Ganesh Srinivasan, Anick Colson, Alice Devinat, Jacqueline L'Hostis, Padmadas Nair

Publication number: 20110081392Abstract: The invention relates to a granulated personal care shampoo comprising a shampoo composition comprising at least one surfactant agglomerated with a water-soluble, water-dispersible or water-insoluble solid particulate carrier. Preferably, the shampoo composition additionally contains a conditioner preferably comprising an organopolysiloxane. The granulated shampoo of the invention can dissolve readily with formation of shampoo foam in hot or cold water, and can be perceived as soft in the dry state, free flowing state and providing a pleasant feel on the skin. The granulated shampoo can be packaged in various types of biodegradable packaging such as paper (environmentally more friendly than plastic sachets) to form a stable package which do not deteriorate on storage.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 18, 2009Publication date: April 7, 2011Inventors: Renato de Arruda, Clementine Calvet, Anick Colson, Alice Devinat

Patent number: 6521586Abstract: A foam control agent comprises (A) an organopolysiloxane material having at least one silicon-bonded substituent of the formula X—Ph, wherein X denotes a divalent aliphatic hydrocarbon group and Ph denotes an optionally substituted aromatic group, (B) an organosilicon resin and (C) a hydrophobic filler. The organosilicon resin (B) preferably consists of siloxane units of the formula R′aSiO4−a/2 wherein R′ denotes a hydroxyl, hydrocarbon or hydrocarbonoxy group, particularly trialkylsiloxy units and SiO4/2 units, wherein a has a value of from 0.5 to 2.4. The foam control agent may be provided as an emulsion or as a particulate material. It is especially useful as a detergent foam control agent.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2000Date of Patent: February 18, 2003Assignee: Dow Corning S.A.Inventors: Jan Hoogland, Anick Colson, Franck Renauld, Jacqueline L'Hostis, George Sawicki, Sophie Stassen
