Abstract: Radiation-crosslinkable hot-melt adhesives containing more than 50% of polyurethane polymers which contain at least one radiation-polymerizable reactive group. The radiation-crosslinkable hot-melt adhesive is prepared by reacting a) a reactive PU prepolymer having a particular block structure b) 20 to 95 mol % of at least one low-molecular-weight compound (B) containing a radically polymerizable double bond and a group reacting with an NCO group; c) 0 to 50 mol % of at least one compound (C) having at least one group reactive to NCO groups but no group that is polymerizable under radical conditions, with a molar mass of 32 to 5000 g/mol; d) 5 to 50 mol % of at least one radical photoinitiator (D) having a primary or secondary OH group, as well as optionally further polymers and/or auxiliary substances. The adhesives can be cured for bonding nonwoven substrates or for coating labels, tapes, films and plasters with pressure-sensitive adhesive coatings.

Abstract: The object is to improve the storage stability of a liquid washing or cleaning agent comprising a protease and lipase with regard to lipolytic activity.

Abstract: A laundry article used for cleaning fabrics includes a water-insoluble nonwoven substrate and coated thereon into at least one zone each a detergent composition and an enzyme-containing composition. The enzyme-containing composition comprises an enzyme embedded in a matrix.

Abstract: The invention relates to a dispensing system for releasing preparations in the interior of a washing machine comprising at least one dispenser and at least one cartridge couplable to the dispenser, in which the cartridge comprises at least three chambers, which contain different flowable preparations, in which the first chamber stores at least one enzyme protein, one enzyme stabilizer and one surfactant at a pH value of 6-8, the second chamber stores at least one bleach, one complexing agent at a pH value of 8-10, the third chamber stores at least one scent and/or one optical brightener at a pH value of 6-8.

Abstract: The invention relates to a dispensing system for releasing preparations in the interior of a washing machine, comprising a dispenser and a cartridge couplable to the dispenser, in which the cartridge comprises at least three chambers, which contain different flowable preparations, in which the first chamber stores at least one enzyme, selected from the group of amylases, mannanases, cellulases, lipases and/or pectate lyases and at least one surfactant and/or complexing agent, the second chamber stores at least one protease and at least one surfactant and/or complexing agent, the third chamber stores at least one scent and/or one optical brightener.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a coloring agent for keratin fibers from a first composition A and a second composition B is provided. The method comprises directing the first composition A from a container A by a filler apparatus through an inlet opening into a second container B containing the second composition B. In container B, as a result of the introduction of composition A and/or the action of the filler apparatus, at least one exit opening is formed out of which the coloring agent for keratin fibers exits from container B as a mixture of compositions A and B.

Abstract: A release device for releasing a flowable preparation includes an electrical energy source, a control unit connected to the energy source, a sensor unit, a release element and an acoustic transducer. The sensor unit is a piezoelectric element suitable for picking up sound waves and/or structure-borne noise from the surrounding environment and converting them into a sensor signal which is converted in the control unit into a control signal for the release element. The release element is the same piezoelectric element and is supplied with electrical signals from the control unit and sprays at least one first preparation from at least one first container. The acoustic transducer is the same piezoelectric element and is supplied with electrical signals from the control unit, which electrical signals are converted by the piezoelectric element into audible acoustic signals in a frequency range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz.

Abstract: Due to toxicological concerns, it may be desirable to replace the fragrance compound lilial with less problematic compounds without losing the creative power and quality regarding perfumes. The present invention addresses this need by using selected oxazolidines such as silvialoxazolidine described herein in conjunction with 1 or more additional scent components selected from a group of compounds such as methoxymelonal.
