Appl. No.:

11/050237

Inventors:

Michael C. Withiam - Landenberg PA, US
Donald P. Conley - Conowingo MD, US
Michael Simone - North East MD, US

Assignee:

J.M. Huber Corporation - Edison NJ

International Classification:

A61K 9/16
A61K 33/06
A61K 33/12
A01N 59/06

US Classification:

424490, 424489, 424493, 424494, 424496, 424497, 424682, 424683, 514 23

Abstract:

Coated particles of metal (such as calcium) silicate that exhibit excellent odor neutralization and sebum absorption properties when present within certain cosmetic and/or personal care formulations and suspensions are provided. Uncoated calcium silicate exhibits a high pH level that may have a deleterious effect upon such cosmetic and/or personal care compositions, thereby rendering the overall composition ineffective for its intended purpose, particularly if the calcium silicate is present in its usual state at high loading levels. Alternatively, if certain materials present within personal care compositions exhibit a sufficiently low pH level, the effectiveness of such calcium silicates may be compromised as well. Such novel coated/treated calcium silicates thus permit high loadings of this beneficial odor neutralizing/sebum absorbing additive within cosmetic and/or personal care formulations without causing any appreciable instability issues or viscosity modification concerns or allow for coexistence with such low pH materials without any appreciable reduction in performance capabilities of the calcium silicates themselves. Certain personal care compositions comprising these novel coated calcium silicate particulates are encompassed within this invention as well.

International Classification:

A61K007/32
A61L009/00
A61L009/01

US Classification:

424/065000

Abstract:

Disclosed is a fluid personal care composition comprising calcium silicate and a vehicle, wherein the calcium silicate is capable of absorbing a malodorous compound. These fluid personal care compositions that provide effective, long-lasting suppression of the malodors associated with human perspiration. The personal care composition may be in the form of a solid stick deodorants, liquid roll-on deodorants, aerosol, and pump spray deodorants, semi-solid gel deodorants, soap bars, and deodorant lotions and creams

US Classification:

395392

Abstract:

An instruction selector receives M instructions per clock cycle and stores N instructions in an instruction queue memory. An instruction queue generates a precedence matrix indicative of the age of the N instructions. A dependency checker determines the available registers for executing the instructions ready for execution. An oldest-instruction selector selects the M oldest instructions responsive to the precedence matrix and the eligible queue entry signals. The instruction queue provides the M selected instructions to execution units for execution. Upon completing the instructions, the execution units provide register availability signals to the dependency checker to release the registers used for the instructions.
