Abstract: Disclosed herein are foamed gel air-treating compositions that have at least 50% water, between 1 and 15 percent soap surfactant, a volatile fragrance, at least 0.1 percent carbon, and a foam stabilizer. These compositions can fragrance a room as well as adsorb malodors in the room. Methods for forming these foamed gels are also disclosed.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are mosquito coils having an enlarged outer portion for providing quick coverage of an insect control ingredient in a space that previously had none. The coil is provided with urea for greater breakage resistance and kerosene and peanut shell powder to improve igniting and burning characteristics.

Abstract: An aqueous formulation for the control of social insects, especially wasps, and a method for its use. The formulation contains insect attracting ingredients and a toxicant in water. The toxicant is a hemisalt preparation of a perfluoroalkane sulfonic acid which is partially neutralized to a pH of between 2.8 and 6.5.

Abstract: A fabric conditioner, available in solid or liquid form, comprising in combination a quaternary ammonium compound having at least one higher alkyl chain containing from 8 to 26 carbon atoms and a tertiary amine oxide having two identical higher alkyl chains, each having at least 8 carbon atoms and no more than 18 carbon atoms. The select amine oxides provide improved substantivity, antistatic properties, and water dispersibility to the fabric conditioner as well as providing improved softening characteristics.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a fabric-conditioning article for use in a washing machine having a wash, spin, and rinse cycle comprising a fabric conditioner and a water-absorbable material in a package which will permit passage of water and having at least one area which will open upon application of internal pressure for releasably containing the fabric conditioner. In use, the package is tossed into a washing machine at the beginning of the wash cycle. The package takes in or absorbs water, creating an internal pressure within the package. Upon exposure to the centrifugal force of the spin cycle, the package opens thereby releasing the conditioner into the water of the rinse cycle which activates the conditioner. Any conventional fabric conditioner, such as a fabric softener, can be utilized in conjunction with the package.

Abstract: The present invention relates to water-in-oil emulsion prespotter laundry compositions. More particularly, the invention relates to water-in-oil emulsion prespotter laundry compositions containing enzymes and specific polyester or polyether polyols, which immobilize the enzymes to prevent their degradation during prolonged storage.

Abstract: A stabilized liquid hydrogen peroxide bleach composition suitable for household use which comprises from 2-12% by weight hydrogen peroxide, 0-20% by weight of an acid selected from an organic acid, phosphoric acid, boric acid or mixtures thereof, 0.1-7.5% by weight of a nitrogen-containing compound, 0.0001-1% by weight of a compound selected from the group consisting of optical brighteners, dyes and mixtures thereof, and water, wherein the weight ratio of hydrogen peroxide to nitrogen-containing compound is within the range of from 1:0.003 to 1:1.5, the composition contains sufficient acid to have a pH within the range of from 1.8-5.5.
