Patent number: 12096767Abstract: A disinfectant composition that is capable of inactivating non-enveloped viruses as well as other microorganisms, such as gram negative and gram positive bacteria, fungi, parasites, enveloped viruses, etc., is provided. Through selective control over the nature of the acid(s) employed and the overall pH level, the present inventors have discovered that the composition can achieve rapid antiviral efficacy, particularly against non-enveloped viruses. Once applied to a surface (e.g., hard surface), the disinfectant composition forms a film that remains capable of providing residual antiviral activity. Notably, the present inventors have discovered that the use of a vinylpyrrolidone copolymer in combination with a polyquaternary ammonium polymer and cationic surfactant can have a synergistic effect on the stability of the film such that it can also achieve long-term, residual antiviral activity.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2020Date of Patent: September 24, 2024Assignee: Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc.Inventors: Amy L. Vanden Heuvel, Douglas R. Hoffman, Jeremy D. Paulsen, Rebecca Vongsa, Paige N. Anunson, Lisa M. Kroll, Corey T. Cunningham, David W. Koenig

Publication number: 20230277704Abstract: A disinfectant composition that contains a unique combination of a primary antiviral agent and a secondary antiviral agent is provided. More particularly, the primary antiviral agent includes a polyprotic acid having a low first acid dissociation constant and the secondary antiviral agent is selected from the group consisting of an anionic N-acyl compound, metal halide salt, amine compound, amine compound, aliphatic amine oxide, alkyl glycoside, alcohol ethoxylate, and combinations thereof. By selectively controlling the particular nature of each antiviral agent and their relative concentration, the present inventors have discovered that a synergistic affect can be achieved in which the disinfectant composition is capable of exhibiting an antiviral efficacy against non-enveloped viruses.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 28, 2023Publication date: September 7, 2023Inventors: Douglas R. Hoffman, Amy L. Vanden Heuvel, Jeremy D. Paulsen, Paige N. Anunson, Lisa M. Kroll, Corey T. Cunningham, David W. Koenig

Patent number: 9480633Abstract: The present invention relates to a single phase temperature management composition. The composition includes from 0.01% to 10% by weight of a neurosensory agent and from 0.01% to 30% by weight of an antiperspirant component. The composition also includes a polar carrier where the polar carrier includes water and monohydric alcohol. The ratio of water to monohydric alcohol ranges from 0.0625:1 to 1.5:1. The compositions of the invention have a viscosity at room temperature of less than 2500 centipoise.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2011Date of Patent: November 1, 2016Assignee: Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc.Inventors: Jeremy D. Paulsen, Scott W. Wenzel, Rafael Ignacio Giganti, Corey T. Cunningham, Jeffery R. Seidling
