Abstract: Disclosed are methods of applying a leave-on personal care treatment products comprising: a) providing a container having a nozzle or opening for selectively releasing the contents thereof; b) including in the container a leave-on personal care formulation comprising: (i) an active component for affecting the personal care of the user; (ii) a carrier for the active component, said carrier comprising at least about 50% by weight of trans-HCFO-1233zd and optionally a co-carrier in amounts of up to about 50% by weight; and c) spraying said leave-on personal care formulation from the container and onto the area of the user to be treated.

Abstract: Disclosed are devices and methods for applying a hair and/or skin and/or scalp care product using a a personal care formulation having an active component for treating the hair and/or scalp and/or skin of the user and a carrier for the active component, wherein the carrier comprises from about 4% to about 10% by weight based on the contents of the container of trans-1233zd and from about 1% to less than 5% by weight ethanol, where in the weight ratio of said trans-1233zd:ethanol is at least about 2.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel azeotrope-like compositions of 1-bromopropane, 4-methoxy-1,1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4-nonafluorobutane (HFE-7100) and at least one organic solvent selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, 2-propanol, 2-methyl-2-propanol, tetrahydrofuran, nitromethane, and methylene chloride and more particularly to azeotrope-like compositions based on these compounds which are useful as solvents in refrigeration flushing, oxygen system cleaning and vapor degreasing applications.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel compositions of 1-bromopropane, nitromethane or acetonitrile and at least one alcohol selected from the group consisting of ethanol, 2-propanol and 2-methyl-2-propanol and more particularly to azeotrope-like compositions based on these compounds which are useful as solvents in refrigeration flushing, oxygen system cleaning and vapor degreasing applications.

Abstract: Novel surfactants and drying, drycleaning and soil repellency compositions containing such surfactants which utilize such surfactants. The surfactants are fluorine containing quaternary ammonium salts, and the drying, drycleaning and soil repellency compositions contain at least one halocarbon component and at least one of the fluorine containing surfactants. These compositions have the ability to remove water or aqueous films from the surfaces of a broad range of substrates and impart soil repellency to fabrics.

Abstract: The invention provides a fluorinated surfactant for use with halocarbon and hydrofluoroether solvents. Additionally, the invention provides drying, dry cleaning, and soil repellency compositions containing a halocarbon or hydrofluoroether and a fluorinated surfactant.
