Patent number: 8080503Abstract: Cleansing bar compositions having high water content comprise: (a) at least about 15%, by weight of the composition, of water; (b) from about 40% to about 84%, by weight of the composition, of soap; and (c) from about 1% to about 15%, by weight of the composition, of inorganic salt. The bar compositions further comprise a component selected from the group consisting of carbohydrate structurant, humectant, free fatty acid, synthetic surfactants, and mixtures thereof. The bar compositions preferably have a Water Activity (“Aw”) of less than about 0.95, preferably less than about 0.90, and more preferably less than about 0.85. The bar compositions are preferably manufactured by a milling process.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2006Date of Patent: December 20, 2011Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Charlie Reyes Salvador, Chunpeng Jiang, Lihuan Wu, Toshihiko Okano, Yan Zhang, Pamela Angeles Diocos, Daniel Samuel Samaco Perez

Patent number: 8076277Abstract: A method is provided for formulating a personal cleansing composition. At least one primary surfactant, at least one secondary amphoteric and/or nonionic surfactant, at least one humectant, and at least one polymeric and/or quaternary conditioner are selected, each of these components having a natural and renewable resource origin. The primary and secondary surfactants are combined with the at least one humectant and the at least one conditioner in a final composition that includes the combined primary and secondary surfactants at less than about 14 wt. %, and includes the combined at least one humectant and at least one conditioner at less than 5.5 wt. %. After forming the final composition, an optimum performance index (OPI) is determined for the composition to ensure that the composition has an OPI of at least about 5.450. The OPI is calculated as: OPI=3÷((solids wt. %+Zein score)÷performance grade).Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2010Date of Patent: December 13, 2011Assignee: The Dial CorporationInventors: Chris Luciow, James J. Dalton
