20090246529 | Particle with Bipolar Topospecific Characteristics and Process for Preparation Thereof - A particle with bipolar topospecific characteristics, whose precursor is an asymmetric 1:1 or 2:1:1 clay particle having alternating tetrahedral and octahedral sheets terminating with a tetrahedral sheet at one external surface plane and an octahedral sheet at another external surface plane, wherein a chemical group, having greater than 3 carbon atoms, and selected from an organyl or an organoheteryl chemical group, is attached to coordinating cations on the exterior side of one of the surface sheets. | 10-01-2009 |
20110021799 | PARTICLE WITH BIPOLAR TOPOSPECIFIC CHARACTERISTICS AND PROCESS FOR PREPARATION THEREOF - This invention relates to particles with bipolar topospecific characteristics and process of preparation thereof. It is an object of the present invention is to provide a particle with bipolar topospecific characteristics with two spatially distinct regions on its surface having non-identical surface characteristics. It has been found that particles prepared by topospecific treatment of an asymmetric clay precursor with an organyl or an organoheteryl group attached to coordinating cations of one of the surface sheets, provides a particle with bipolar topospecific characteristics with two spatially distinct regions on its surface having non-identical surface characteristics. | 01-27-2011 |
20120094883 | PERSONAL CLEANSING COMPOSITION - This invention relates to a liquid or soft-solid personal cleansing composition that utilises the detergency properties of new materials which are more efficient, more inexpensive and are an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional soaps or synthetic surfactants. It more particularly relates to a cleansing composition in liquid, gel or cream formats. The present invention provides for a personal cleansing composition comprising (i) 1 to 50% of treated clay particles; and (ii) a cosmetically acceptable base; wherein said treated clay particles are asymmetric 1:1 or 2:1:1 clay particles having alternating tetrahedral and octahedral sheets terminating with a tetrahedral sheet at one external surface plane and an octahedral sheet at another external surface plane, with a fatty acid of carbon chain length 10 to 22 attached to coordinating cation on one of said exterior surface planes. | 04-19-2012 |
20120177712 | ANTIMICROBIAL PARTICLE AND A PROCESS FOR PREPARING THE SAME - This invention relates to a bipolar antimicrobial particle for use in laundry detergent compositions, fabric conditioners, personal care and cosmetic compositions and a process for making the same. In view of the foregoing, it is an object of the present invention to provide a stabile antimicrobial agent immobilised on a carrier particle. It is a further objective to provide an antimicrobial particle with improved retention to the fabric so that larger amounts of antimicrobial will be available even after rinsing. Surprisingly it has been found that antimicrobial molecules tagged by surface reaction onto naturally occurring asymmetric clay surfaces, act as an antimicrobial particle with improved retention properties with improved stability. | 07-12-2012 |
20120196787 | SHAPED SOLID CLEANING COMPOSITION - The invention relates to a shaped solid cleaning composition, especially in bar format, which utilises the detergency properties of new materials which are more efficient, relatively inexpensive and are environmentally friendly alternatives to conventional soaps or synthetic surfactants. The present invention provides for a shaped solid cleaning composition which comprises a specific amount of structuring agent and a specific amount of a treated particle. The precursor of the treated particle is an asymmetric 1:1 or 2:1: clay particle having alternating tetrahedral and octahedral sheets terminating with a tetrahedral sheet at a first external surface plane and an octahedral sheet at a second external surface plane. Either or both of said external surfaces is attached with a fatty acid or derivative thereof. | 08-02-2012 |
20130084318 | MICROSPHERES AND PHOTOPROTECTIVE PERSONAL CARE COMPOSITION COMPRISING SAME - The invention relates to photoprotective cosmetic compositions comprising microspheres and a process to prepare them. In particular, the invention is especially effective in protecting the skin against visible solar radiation while ensuring a highly acceptable even skin tone and appearance. The present inventors have developed a microsphere with hollow interior and shell of a material having a specific optical property and specific thickness and coated with another material having a different specific optical property, a combination of which gives the microsphere surprising benefits both in terms of protection from the harmful sun rays while giving a pleasing skin appearance when these microspheres are incorporated in topical compositions. | 04-04-2013 |
20130289501 | SKIN TREATMENT PROCESS AND DEVICE - The present invention is in the field skin treatment, in particular and deep pore cleansing and delivery of benefit agents deep inside the pores. The invention further relates to air-water jet devices for providing said skin treatment. Accordingly it is an object of the invention to provide for a device and process for deep pore skin cleansing, especially, a process for skin cleansing using reduced amounts of water. We have found that a skin cleaning device comprising an air-water jet, wherein the air and water are mixed outside the nozzle(s), provides improved cleansing of skin, including deep poor cleansing, with low usage of water. | 10-31-2013 |
20140363542 | EDIBLE COATING COMPOSITION - The present invention relates to edible coating composition, particularly to an edible coating composition for providing moisture barrier. It is an object of the present invention to provide an edible ice-cream cone coating composition. It is another object of the present invention to provide a coated ice-cream cone with improved moisture barrier properties. It is another object of the present invention to provide a coated ice-cream cone that retains cone crispness at the time of consumption. It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a coated ice-cream cone that shows improved moisture barrier during long periods of cold storage even under varying temperature conditions. It is still another object of the present invention to provide a method for manufacturing a coating ice-cream cone. It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a coated ice-cream cone having improved shelf life period. It is yet another object of the present invention to provide coated ice-cream cones that has good storage stability at higher storage temperatures. We have found that an edible coating composition having a chitosan-soap complex provides for a hydrophobic coating. It was found that when at least an inner surface of the ice-cream cone includes the coating composition it improves the shelf life for which the cone retains its crispness at higher storage temperature. | 12-11-2014 |
