  • Patent number: 7181934
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a device for dispensing a unit dose water-soluble pouch containing a laundry additive during the spin cycle of a washing machine process having a spinning wash drum. The device is attached to the vertical center post of a washing machine and holds a water-soluble pouch above the high water level. During the spin cycle, the spinning center post will create sufficient centrifugal force so that the water-soluble pouch is released from the device. The water-soluble pouch will then fall into the laundry where the water-soluble pouch will dissolve when rinse water fills the machine thereby releasing the laundry additive to treat the washed articles.

  • Patent number: 7067467
    Abstract: Aqueous compositions comprising a perborate salt and a polyol. The advantageous properties of the composition include increased solubility of the perborate salt, increased available oxygen stability in an aqueous environment, and the capacity to increase the pH upon the dilution. The compositions are useful for bleaching various surfaces, especially in laundry cleaning.

  • Patent number: 6794348
    Abstract: A sher-thinnig lamellar gel detergent composition, employing non-neutralized fatty acid in a specific amount, depending on the total surfactant level. The weight % ratio of non-neutralized fatty acid to the total surfactant within a specific range, defined by the Gelling Index equation, results in gels with the desired properties. The inventive product offers an advantage of laundry pre-treater and a detergent in a single product.
