Abstract:
Microcapsule formulations are combined with emulsions or particle dispersions in a single-package formulation which is storage-stable and provides substantially the full efficacy of each of the two forms as if applied individually. The single-package formulation is suspension having two dispersed phases; the first being an active species encapsulated in a shell of inert polymeric diffusion-limiting material (i.e., a microcapsule), and the second being an active species in water-insoluble form with no diffusion-limiting barrier at its surface. An appropriate suspension system is included to prevent the dispersed phases from agglomerating within themselves and with each other. The invention is useful in combining two different active ingredients as well as in combining immediate-delivery and delayed-delivery forms of the same active ingredient. The invention may for example involve combining a biocide with an activity modifier such as a safener, with the effect of lowering the needed amount of one or the other by removing it to a separate phase. In certain cases, a unique combination of surface-active agents maintains the phases in suspension.

Abstract:
A release film which is a polymeric film coated with a release resin which is a low molecular weight styrene polymer is disclosed. The release film is especially suitable for receiving a layer(s) of metal for release of the metal flakes. The released metal flakes possess enhanced optical properties.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to shampoo compositions and more particularly shampoo compositions containing non-volatile silicone materials and methods of making the same. Specifically, this invention is directed to aqueous shampoo compositions comprising sorbitan stearate, sorbitan distearate or mixtures thereof; stearyl alcohol ethoxylates, insoluble non-volatile silicone, and combinations of surfactants selected from anionic, nonionic and amphoteric surfactants. This invention also relates to a method of forming an aqueous shampoo composition comprising insoluble, non-volatile silicon by the method of forming a preformed aqueous silicone emulsion and combining with a combination of surfactants.
