Patent number: 7112621Abstract: Coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture comprising a nanoparticle system employing same to impart surface modifying benefits for all types of soft surfaces, and in some cases, hard surfaces, are disclosed. In some embodiments, dispersement of nanoparticles in a suitable carrier medium allows for the creation of coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture that create multi-use benefits to the modified surfaces. These surface modifications can produce long lasting or semi-permanent multi-use benefits that, in some embodiments, may include at least one of the following improved surface properties: cleaning, wettability, liquid strike-through, comfort, stain resistance, soil removal, malodor control, modification of surface friction, reduced damage to abrasion and color enhancement, relative to the surfaces unmodified with such nanoparticle systems.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2002Date of Patent: September 26, 2006Assignee: The Proctor & Gamble CompanyInventors: Robert Henry Rohrbaugh, Glenn Thomas Jordan, IV, Michael Ray McDonald, John David Carter, Eugene Paul Gosselink, Heather Anne Liddle

Patent number: 7066998Abstract: Materials for coating, coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture comprising a nanoparticle system or employing the same to impart surface modifying benefits for all types of hard surfaces are disclosed. In some embodiments, dispersement of nanoparticles in a suitable carrier medium allows for the creation of coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture that create multi-use benefits to modified hard surfaces. In some embodiments, actively curing the coating composition on the hard surfaces, including, but not limited to by radiative heating the air surrounding the hard surface with the coating thereon can be used to increase the durability of the hard surface coating.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2001Date of Patent: June 27, 2006Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Robert Henry Rohrbaugh, Michael Ray McDonald, John David Carter, Eugene Paul Gosselink, Chanchal Kumar Ghosh, Helen Frances O'Connor, Heather Anne Liddle, Marc Francois Evers, Morgan Thomas Leahy, Alan Scott Goldstein, Brian Joseph Loughnane

Patent number: 6955834Abstract: Materials for coating, coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture comprising a nanoparticle system or employing the same to impart surface modifying benefits for all types of inanimate hard surfaces are disclosed. In some embodiments, dispersement of nanoparticles in a suitable carrier medium allows for the creation of coating compositions, methods and articles of manufacture that create multi-use benefits to modified hard surfaces. These surface modifications can produce long lasting or semi-permanent multi-use benefits that include at least one of the following improved surface properties: wetting and sheeting, quick drying, uniform drying, soil removal, self-cleaning, anti-spotting, anti-soil deposition, cleaner appearance, enhanced gloss, enhanced color, minor surface defect repair, smoothness, anti-hazing, modification of surface friction, release of actives and transparency, relative to hard surfaces unmodified with such nanoparticle systems.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2003Date of Patent: October 18, 2005Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Robert Henry Rohrbaugh, Alan Scott Goldstein, Michael Ray McDonald, Helen Frances O'Connor, Heather Anne Liddle, John Michael Jensen, Nabil Yaqub Sakkab
