  • Patent number: 11090235
    Abstract: Achieving enhanced scent expression in antiperspirant compositions and methods.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 1, 2013
    Date of Patent: August 17, 2021
    Assignee: The Procter & Gamble Company
    Inventors: David Arthur Sturgis, Steven Michael Wujek, Sr., Phi Van Chu
  • Publication number: 20200121566
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a packaged solid stick antiperspirant composition is provided. The method includes combining an antiperspirant active, one or more structurants and a surfactant to form a mixture, dispensing the mixture from a nozzle to fill a dispensing package, forming a solid stick antiperspirant composition within the dispensing package. The surfactant has a melt temperature that is greater than the crystallization onset temperature of the solid stick antiperspirant composition. The antiperspirant active and the surfactant are in contact for about 5 minutes or less from the moment that the antiperspirant active and the surfactant and the structurant are mixed until the moment that the mixture is dispensed from the nozzle.

  • Patent number: 10052271
    Abstract: A solid stick antiperspirant composition is provided. The antiperspirant composition includes aluminum zirconium tetrachlorohydrex glycine having a concentration from about 10% to about 35% by weight of the composition, an anhydrous liquid carrier, one or more structurants having a concentration from about 15% to about 25% by weight of the composition, wherein the one or more structurants comprises one or more waxes and a non-ionic exthoxylated linear alcohol having a carbon chain length from about 20 to about 40. The solid stick antiperspirant composition is a single phase.
