Xue Dong - Lincolnshire IL, US

International Classification:

A61K007/50

US Classification:

510141000

Abstract:

A composition suitable for use in personal cleaning or detergent soap bars, which includes a sulfonated fatty acid or alpha sulfonated alkyl ester, and methods for producing such a composition. The composition and methods exhibit efficient processing and allow for formation of cleansing or detergent bars with improved hardness, improved resistance to marring and improved processability to marring, lower wear-rate and decreased mush formation during consumer use.

International Classification:

A61K007/50

US Classification:

510156000

Abstract:

Disclosed are improved cleaning compositions comprising soap&com ma; fatty acid, synthetic detersive surfactant, salt and a polyhydridic alcohol, which are suitable for formation into precursor cleansing/laundry bar “soap noodles,” personal cleansing bars and laundry detergent bars. The compositions comprise: (a) from about 58% to about 93% by weight of an approximately 70% aqueous soap slurry; (b) from about 1% to about 15% by weight of a fatty acid; (c) from about 2% to about 30% by weight of an approximately 55% aqueous mixture of anionic surfactants comprising i) an alpha sulfonated alkyl ester, and ii) a sulfonated fatty acid or salts thereof, wherein the ratio of i) to ii) is from about 10:1 to about 1:10; (d) from about 0.5% to about 2% by weight of a salt; (e) from about 0.5% to about 5% by weight of a 25 polyhydridic alcohol; and (f) from 0 to about 10% by weight of an alkanolamide of the formula O CH(CH2)CNH(CH)OH wherein n=6-16, and y is 2-4; The invention additionally relates to an improved process for producing both precursor cleansing/laundry bar “soap noodles” and personal cleansing/laundry detergent bars 35 comprising combining (a)-(e) to form a liquid mixture at a temperature of about 65 C. to about 105 C., removing from about 50% to about 90% by weight of the water from the liquid mixture, by heating up to 150 C. under vacuum conditions or 105 C. at normal conditions to form a thickened mixture, extruding the thickened mixture to form flaked solid or semi-solid pellets or noodles, and optionally, plodding the flaked solid or semi-solid pellets or noodles to form plodded pellets or noodles,f extruding the plodded pellets or noodles to form a billet, cutting the billet, and stamping the cut billet to yield a personal cleansing/laundry detergent bar.

US Classification:

510355

Abstract:

Disclosed are compositions suitable for formation into mild personal cleansing or laundry detergent bars, as well as other uses. The compositions generally comprise: (a) from about 30% to about 99% by weight of a mixture of anionic surfactants comprising: i) an alpha sulfonated alkyl ester; and ii) a sulfonated fatty acid; (a) from about 0. 5% to about 50% by weight of a fatty acid; and (b) from about 0. 1% to about 50% by weight water; wherein the ratio of i) to ii) is from about 10:1 to about 0. 5:1, and wherein the ratio of (a) to (b) is about 1:1 to about 11:1.

International Classification:

B64D 3300

US Classification:

244 53A

Abstract:

An aircraft is provided that includes one or more engines, an air-driven generator, and a start-circuit for operably connecting an electrical output of the air driven generator for starting one or more of the engines while the aircraft is in flight. Various embodiments also provide apparatus for cross-ship electric starting of multiple engines while the aircraft is in flight or on the ground using: an electrical output of a generator attached to another engine; on-board batteries; an on board auxiliary power unit; or power received from a ground source. A single start-converter is utilized to supply power to AC starter-motors for electric starting of the aircraft's engines. In some embodiments, the engine is soft-started with the air driven generator, by controlling blade pitch in an air driven turbine driving the air driven generator, without the use of the start converter.
