Abstract: A hair styling implement is comprised of a support and an extension mounted therefrom. The extension is preferably comprised of at least 75%, more preferably 90% and most preferably is comprised substantially completely of a material able to absorb water by wicking or capillary action. The extension is coil shaped, a die-cut sheet folded to encase at least a part of the support, a plurality of disks or a first series of disks separated from a second series of disks by a plurality of bristles.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions comprising a structured benefit agent pre-mix or delivery vehicle comprising benefit agent structured with crystalline materials, as defined, which, when separately prepared and combined after preparation, provides enhanced delivery of benefit agent from a carrying composition into which the premix is added. The use of structured benefit agent also enhances delivery of separate benefit agents in the premix (which may or may not be structured) and of separate benefit agents added separately from the premix.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions comprising a structured benefit agent pre-mix or delivery vehicle comprising benefit agent structured with crystalline materials, as defined, which when separately prepared and combined after preparation, provides enhanced delivery of benefit agent from a personal product bar carrying composition into which the premix is added. The use of structured benefit agent also enhances delivery of separate benefit agents in the premix (which may or may not be structured) and of separate benefit agents added separately from the premix.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions comprising a structured benefit agent pre-mix or delivery vehicle comprising benefit agent structured with crystalline materials, as defined, which when separately prepared and combined after preparation, provides enhanced deposition of hydrophilic benefit agents carried on, trapped within or in the presence of the structured benefit agent.

Abstract: A low profile electrical cable (10), suitable for use in an oil well where a high temperature corrosive atmosphere is present, and being comprised of a plurality of conductors (12) wherein each conductor is insulated by wrapping it in at least one heat-sealed layer (14) of an insulating material, such as a polyimide plastic. The insulation layer around each conductor is then jacketed by an extruded layer (16) of a material which is mechanically and chemically stable to at least about 400.degree. F. A layer of polyvinyl fluoride tape (18) is disposed around the jacket (16); a braid (20) is wound around the jacket (16) and tape (18) of each conductor to enhance the overall strength characteristics of the cable, and this subassembly is, in turn, further jacketed with a layer (22) of a highly permeable nitrile polymer which provides mechanical and chemical protection for the braid, while preventing gas build-up under the jacket.
