Abstract:
A stable, nonaqueous liquid tooth whitening composition comprised of an anhydrous peroxide compound dispersed in an orally acceptable mixture of an anhydrous hydrophilic polymer and an adhesion enhancer which composition when applied topically to tooth surfaces forms an adherent layer containing the peroxide compound which peroxide compound is thereafter is released from the layer to effect tooth whitening.

Abstract:
A gelled stick or soft gel composition for reducing underarm wetness comprising: (a) 0.01-20 weight % selected from the group consisting of starch graft homopolymers and copolymers of poly(2-propenamide-co-2-propenioic acid) sodium salt; (b) 10-88 weight % of a volatile silicone; (c) a gelling agent selected from (i) a group consisting of 5-20 weight % siliconized polyamide if a gelled stick is formed; and (ii) 0-5 weight % of a siliconized polyamide and 0-5% of a silicone elastomer if a soft gel is formed; (d) 0.05-85 weight % of water or a water soluble organic solvent; (e) for products which are not sticks, 0.05-5 weight % of a surfactant with a HLB value in the range of 3-13; (f) 0-10 weight % of an antiperspirant active or an effective amount of a deodorizing agent which is not an antiperspirant active; (g) 0-20 weight % of a nonvolatile silicone; and (h) 0-20 weight % of an emollient.
Abstract:
The invention is a clear, elastomer-free, gel composition comprising: (a) 0.1-25 weight % of an antiperspirant active having a low metal to chloride ratio in the range of 0.9-1.3 : 1; (b) 9-23.95 weight % of one or more volatile silicones having a flash point of 100 degrees C or less; (c) 0.05-0.5 weight % of a silicone surfactant having an HLB value ≤ 8; (d) 30-70 weight % water; (e) 0-50 weight % selected water soluble organic solvents; and (f) 0-10 weight % of an emollient; wherein the composition is a liquid gel having a viscosity in the range of 5-50,000 centipoise and a ratio of oil phase to water phase in the range of 10:90 to 24:76.
