  • Publication number: 20250084342
    Abstract: An acidic bathroom and/or multi-purpose cleaner providing corrosion protection in the absence of a corrosion inhibitor when present in a metal container, such as an aluminum container, is described. The corrosion protection is provided by the inclusion in the cleaner of a combination of one or more organic acids and one or more anionic surfactants present in the cleaner. The cleaner has a pH equal to or less than 3. The cleaner may also include a nonionic surfactant and has an aqueous carrier, such as purified water. The cleaner can be an aerosol or a non-aerosol cleaner.

  • Patent number: 12043052
    Abstract: An ink receptive substrate including an ink receptive layer configured to receive at least one inkjet ink. The ink receptive layer having a plurality of first silica particles and a plurality of second silica particles, wherein the average particle diameter of the first silica particles is different than the average particle diameter of the second silica particles. The ink receptive layer also having a first acrylic polymer and a second acrylic polymer, wherein the first acrylic polymer and second acrylic polymer are partially miscible. In one aspect, the includes ink receptive substrate includes a base layer configured to support the ink receptive layer and a high water capacity layer configured to reduce water accumulation in the ink receptive layer.
