  • Patent number: 11111462
    Abstract: The present invention relates to bars comprising soap bar matrix comprising predominantly long chain length soap and regions or domains interspersed within the matrix comprising predominantly shorter chain soaps. The novel bars of the invention are sufficiently hard to survive large scale manufacturing while simultaneously delivering benefits of significant foam value enhancement, for example, due to delivery of short-chain soaps from concentrated regions. Surprisingly, even when soaps in concentrated regions comprise small percentage of overall soap oils or fats used, they form observable kappa phase pattern.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 12, 2016
    Date of Patent: September 7, 2021
    Assignee: Conopco, Inc.
    Inventors: Rafael Astolfi, Jorge Luiz Basso, Sergio Roberto Leopoldino, Luiz Felipe Costa Vidigal, Venugopal Vijayakrishnan, Yuriy Konstantinovich Yarovoy
  • Patent number: 10260028
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for making soap bar compositions comprising bar matrix comprising predominantly long chain length soap and interspersed regions comprising predominantly shorter chain soaps.

  • Patent number: 9695387
    Abstract: The present invention relates to extruded soap bars having improved transparency. Specifically, by balancing the amounts of C16 (palmitic acid) and C18 (stearic acid) fatty acids to have a ratio in the final bar of 1, substantially improved transparency is unexpectedly obtained.
