Abstract: Blends of the hard wax fraction obtained from the fractionation of lanolin and an ester derived from an aliphatic polyol or ether polyol and fatty acid are suitable substitutes for U.S.P. anhydrous lanolin and can be substituted therefore in cosmetic formulations (creams, lotions, etc.) without detracting from the properties of the system.

Abstract: The present process and apparatus are directed to the continuous spinning and drawing of polyamide yarn wherein an aqueous emulsion spin finish is applied to undrawn yarn and the yarn liveliness on the first or winding godet is significantly reduced by use of a first and substantially unheated godet having an increase in diameter from the first to at least the second yarn wrap prior to drawing and take-up.

Abstract: A typewriter correction tape adapted to lift off an erroneous typewritten character from the paper on which it was typed including an impact compressible material coated on a substrate film, and method of manufacture thereof.

Abstract: The instant application covers the use of a heat-stable composition of matter useful for modifying the rheological and suspension properties of non-aqueous fluid systems containing finely divided solid particles. The heat-stable composition of matter comprises a creamy paste of finely divided particles of an emulsifiable polyethylene wax suspended in a sulfated-sulfonated castor oil solution.

Abstract: A cream wax is produced by forming a mixture of beeswax, paraffin wax and turpentine and heating the mixture to a temperature of approximately 120.degree. F. Linseed oil is heated to the same temperature and then mixed with the above ingredients while maintaining the mixture at that temperature. Naphtha is heated to approximately 110.degree. F. and added to the previous mixture, the temperature of which has been reduced to approximately 110.degree. F. Water and soap are mixed together and heated to approximately 130.degree. F., the heat is removed from the previous mixture and the water and soap mixture added thereto. The aforesaid mixing steps are all accompanied by agitation of the already formed mixture to which the new ingredients are added. The percentage composition by weight of the ingredients to the total composition is as follows: beeswax 8%; paraffin wax and soap 2.4%, turpentine 16%, linseed oil 8%, water 20%, and naphtha 43.2%.

Abstract: Textile treating compositions which are particularly adaptable for use on partially oriented textile yarn. These textile treating compositions contain a blend of organic esters which may also contain a wax, processing aids and blending agents. The blend of organic esters comprises a blend of alkylidyne trimethanol esters, and an effective amount of at least one member of the group of a diester of a dicarboxylic acid and an ethoxylated ester and a salt of an alkyl aryl sulfonate. The wax can be an ethoxylated fatty acid.
