Publication number: 20220054384Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a microbiostatic cleansing composition for use on skin and hard surfaces that reduces microbe resistance. The cleansing composition may be, for example, bacteriostatic or virostatic and includes a release agent that entangles the microbes without killing them allowing them to be removed from skin and hard surface in an inactive state.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 6, 2019Publication date: February 24, 2022Applicant: GPCP IP Holdings LLCInventors: Brian Patrick Argo, Reynee Wynne Kachur, Yin Zheng Hessefort

Patent number: 11253111Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide foam skin care product (e.g., soap) dispensers and corresponding compositions. An example foam skin care product dispenser includes a reservoir that holds, under pressure, a skin care product composition, including one or more propellants. During a dispense, a dispense valve is opened to release some of the skin care product composition from the reservoir into a dispensing (e.g., flow) path. Once released, the skin care product composition at least partially foams to form foamed skin care product (e.g., foamed soap).Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2020Date of Patent: February 22, 2022Assignee: GPCP IP Holdings LLCInventors: Ted Allen Casper, Benjamin John Holtz, Ryan David Carignan, Brian Patrick Argo, Jeffrey Charles Duhacek, Philip Ross Walker, Darryl Tyler Rathbun

Patent number: 7998495Abstract: A non-irritating antimicrobial multi-layer or multi-ply tissue product made by treating an inner layer or ply or an inner surface of an inner layer or ply with one or more antimicrobial agents and treating the one or more outer layers or plies or the outer surfaces of the layers or plies with one or more irritation-inhibiting agents, and methods of making and using the same. The antimicrobial agent will remain confined to the inner portion of the tissue product, thereby preventing irritation to the user, and the irritation-inhibiting composition treated layer(s) or ply(s) provides a pleasing, soothing, non-irritating tactile quality to the tissue product. The non-irritating antimicrobial multi-layer or multi-ply tissue product further comprises an absorption enhancing agent. In one embodiment, the irritation-inhibiting composition comprises an oil, in which case the tissue product will also entrap any absorbed contaminant, holding it in contact with the antimicrobial agent.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2008Date of Patent: August 16, 2011Assignee: Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc.Inventors: Brian Patrick Argo, Timothy Maurice McFarland, Pamela Mary Thompson

Patent number: 7914891Abstract: Microencapsulated delivery vehicles comprising an active agent are disclosed. In one embodiment, the microencapsulated delivery vehicles are heat delivery vehicles capable of generating heat upon activation. The microencapsulated heat delivery vehicles may be introduced into wet wipes such that, upon activation, the wet wipe solution is warmed resulting in a warm sensation on a user's skin. Any number of other active ingredients, such as cooling agents and biocides, can also be incorporated into a microencapsulated delivery vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2005Date of Patent: March 29, 2011Assignee: Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc.Inventors: John David Amundson, Alan Edward Wright, Frank P. Abuto, Michael S. Brunner, Wael R. Joseph, Larry E. Brown, David Charles Musil, Michael Allen Daley, Jeffrey David Shelley, Brian Patrick Argo, David J. Drath, William A.

Patent number: 5728665Abstract: The present invention concerns a thickened viscoelastic cleaning formulation comprising, in aqueous solution: (a) an active cleaning compound; and (b) a viscoelastic thickening system comprising a tetradecyldialkylamine oxide and a hydrophobic organic counterion; wherein the formulation has a viscosity of at least 500 cP at 20.degree. C. The present invention is characterized as a means for reducing the characteristic "bleach odor" found in hypochlorite cleaning compositions of the prior art, particularly those which are volatilized upon dispensing. The compositions of the present invention may further be formulated to have utility as a hard surface cleaner, or as a drain opener.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 1995Date of Patent: March 17, 1998Assignee: The Clorox CompanyInventors: Clement Kin-Man Choy, Brian Patrick Argo
