  • Publication number: 20200115506
    Abstract: The present invention relates to benefit agent containing delivery particles, compositions comprising said particles, and processes for making and using the aforementioned particles and compositions. When employed in compositions, for example, cleaning or fabric care compositions, such particles increase the efficiency of benefit agent delivery, thereby allowing reduced amounts of benefit agents to be employed. In addition to allowing the amount of benefit agent to be reduced, such particles allow a broad range of benefit agents to be employed.

  • Publication number: 20160304819
    Abstract: A process of making a consumer product composition comprising a non-porous dissolvable solid structure comprises the steps of: providing a carrier material having a melting point of greater than 25° C.; heating the carrier material to a temperature greater than the melting point of the carrier material to form liquefied carrier material; mixing a hydrophobic conditioning agent with the liquefied carrier material to form a melt composition; and cooling the melt composition to a temperature below the melting point of the carrier material to form the non-porous dissolvable solid structure of the consumer product composition. The carrier material and hydrophobic conditioning agent are selected to provide a Modified Capillary Number of less than about 10 with respect to the melt composition of the process.
