  • Publication number: 20160304811
    Abstract: A consumer product composition comprises a non-porous dissolvable solid structure comprising a carrier material having a viscosity at 70° C., and a hydrophobic conditioning agent having a viscosity at 70° C. The hydrophobic conditioning agent is disposed within the carrier material of the non-porous dissolvable solid structure. A ratio of the viscosity of the hydrophobic conditioning agent at 70° C. to the viscosity of the carrier material at 70° C. is from about 1000:1 to about 1:1000.

  • Publication number: 20160304819
    Abstract: A process of making a consumer product composition comprising a non-porous dissolvable solid structure comprises the steps of: providing a carrier material having a melting point of greater than 25° C.; heating the carrier material to a temperature greater than the melting point of the carrier material to form liquefied carrier material; mixing a hydrophobic conditioning agent with the liquefied carrier material to form a melt composition; and cooling the melt composition to a temperature below the melting point of the carrier material to form the non-porous dissolvable solid structure of the consumer product composition. The carrier material and hydrophobic conditioning agent are selected to provide a Modified Capillary Number of less than about 10 with respect to the melt composition of the process.

  • Publication number: 20160304812
    Abstract: A consumer product composition comprises a non-porous dissolvable solid structure comprising from about 30% to about 95%, by weight of the consumer product composition, of a carrier material, and from about 5% to about 50%, by weight of the consumer product composition, of a hydrophobic conditioning agent disposed within the carrier material of the non-porous dissolvable solid structure. The carrier material comprises a polyethylene glycol material, or mixtures thereof, having a molecular weight of from about 200 to about 50,000. The hydrophobic conditioning agent is selected from the group consisting of silicone materials, organic conditioning oils, hydrocarbon oils, fatty esters, metathesized unsaturated polyol esters, silane-modified oils, and mixtures thereof.
