  • Publication number: 20230210730
    Abstract: A cleansing composition comprising a detersive surfactant; an aqueous carrier; from about 0.5% to about 30% by weight of the cleansing composition of discrete particles comprising anhydrous particles and an aqueous phase, and wherein said anhydrous particles comprise: one or more fatty amphiphile selected from the group consisting of fatty alcohol, fatty ester, fatty acid, fatty amide and mixtures thereof; of one or more secondary surfactants selected from the group consisting of anionic, nonionic, zwitterionic, cationic or mixtures thereof. Wherein the discrete particle of the cleansing composition has a size from about 500 microns to about 7000 microns, and wherein the cleansing composition has a % transmittance of about 75% or higher.
    Type: Application

  • Patent number: 8417474
    Abstract: Method of product evaluation comprising the steps of applying at least one substance to a surface of an artificial substrate to form a substance-coated surface, wherein the substrate surface demonstrates at least one physical property selected from the group consisting of a total surface energy of from about 15 mJ/m2 to about 50 mJ/m2, a polar component of the total surface energy of from about 0 mJ/m2 to about 15 mJ/m2, a zeta-potential at a pH of about 5.0 of from about ?30 mV to about 30 mV, and combinations thereof, and performing at least one analysis of the substance-coated surface.

  • Patent number: 8202319
    Abstract: Article of manufacture comprising a substrate and a coating layer. The coating layer comprises at least one coating material, and is stably affixed to the substrate to form a stable, coated surface. The coated surface has a texture that mimics the topography of mammalian keratinous tissue and demonstrates at least one physical property representative of mammalian keratinous tissue, selected from the group consisting of a total surface energy of from about 15 mJ/m2 to about 50 mJ/m2, a dispersive component of the surface energy of from about 15 mJ/m2 to about 50 mJ/m2, a polar component of the total surface energy of from about 1 mJ/m2 to about 14 mJ/m2, a zeta-potential at a pH of about 5.0 of from about ?40 mV to about 30 mV, and combinations thereof.
