Abstract: A polyethylene terephthalate container having a hydrogen generator and catalyst disposed or otherwise incorporated in components of the container, including the closure, closure insert, label, label glue, and/or any other portions of the final container assembly. In addition, the catalyst and the hydrogen generator can both be located in the same component. Methods for dispersing the hydrogen generator and catalyst in the container wall without affecting clarity are provided.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to durable finishes for cellulose-containing fibers and fibrous substrates. The active components of the finishes are hydroxyl-containing amines, and preferably trialkanol amines. When combined with a suitable crosslinker, the amines become attached to and crosslinked on the substrate fiber, and form a soft resinous coating that is durable to cleaning procedures. This polymeric coating imparts durable anti-microbial activity and renewable control of certain odors.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to the preparation of fibrous substrates, including textiles, marked with colloidal particle nanobar codes, to the fibrous substrates so prepared, and to methods for detecting the nanobar codes on the fibrous substrates for use in quality control, counterfeiting, and the like.

Abstract: The present application relates to the treatment of textiles to impart wrinkle resistance and softness while maintaining the natural hydrophilicity of the substrate. In one embodiment, it relates to the treatment of linear polymers, yarns, fibers, webs, mesches, fabrics and other fibrous substrates to provide a textile finish that resists wrinkles and remains soft to the touch.

Abstract: Compositions for imparting a performance enhancing property to a fabric comprising a complex between an anionic polymer and a cationic polymer, wherein either the anionic polymer or the cationic polymer comprises a functional group that is capable of imparting the performance enhancing property to the fabric are disclosed. The performance enhancing properties are durable and can withstand many home launderings. In addition, methods for applying polyelectrolytes complexes to fabrics to impart a persistent performance enhancing property to the fabric are disclosed. Fabrics having durable performance enhancing coatings are described, where the coatings are formed from polyelectrolytes.
