US Patent:

6544302, Apr 8, 2003

Filed:

Dec 16, 1999

Appl. No.:

09/465991

Inventors:

Vivian Berger - Dumont NJ
Virgil A. G. Williams - Brooklyn NY
Randall Richards - Manor TX

Assignee:

Bush Boake Allen - Montvale NJ

International Classification:

C11C 500

US Classification:

44275, 431288, 431289, 431291

Abstract:

Candles are disclosed that include a wick, a first phase and a second phase. In one embodiment, the first phase is substantially clear and has a first melting point, the second phase is visually distinct from the first phase and has a second melting point, and the second melting point is greater than or about equal to the first melting point. In another embodiment, the first phase contains a first concentration of gellant in first solvent, the second phase contains a second concentration of gellant in second solvent, and the first and second concentrations are non-identical. In another embodiment, the first and second phases each contain gellant, however the second phase contains components not present in the first phase.

Appl. No.:

10/040412

Inventors:

Randall Richards - Canton GA, US

Assignee:

International Fragrance & Techology - Canton GA

International Classification:

A01N 2504

US Classification:

424405, 424400, 424401, 424484

Abstract:

Disclosed is a clear, crosslinked, polymeric gel composition that is the reaction product of a microemulsion containing (a) from 1-70 wt. %, preferably from 1-40 wt. %, and more preferably from 10-25 wt. % of an anhydride functionalized polymer, (b) from 0. 1-40 wt. %, preferably from 0. 1-20 wt. %, and most preferably from 0. 5-5 wt. % of a cross-linking agent, (c) from 0. 01-50 wt. %, preferably from 0. 1-20 wt. %, and more preferably from 0. 5-10 wt. % surfactant, (d) from 0. 01-30 wt. %, preferably from 0. 1-10 wt. %, and more preferably from 0. 1-5 wt. % water, and (e) from 10. 0-95. 0 wt. % of a hydrophobic liquid, based on the total weight of the polymeric gel composition. The gel composition is prepared by combining the anhydride functionalized polymer, the cross-linking agent, the surfactant, the water, and the hydrophobic liquid-form a microemulsion and then gelling the microemulsion.

Appl. No.:

10/136721

Inventors:

Randall Richards - Canton GA, US

Assignee:

International Fragrance & Technology, Inc. - Canton GA

International Classification:

A61L009/12

US Classification:

422 4, 422 5, 422123, 239 58

Abstract:

A dispenser for controlling the release of volatile materials within a contained environment such as an automobile, a home, an office, a factory, or the like, comprises a housing having an opening therein, a volatile material positioned within the housing, and a temperature responsive component in operable association with the opening to regulate said opening in order to contain or release the volatile material. The temperature responsive component automatically controls the release of the volatile material in the contained environment in response to a change in the ambient temperature by uncovering or covering the opening of the housing. A method for controlling the release of volatile materials within a contained environment is also disclosed.

Appl. No.:

10/002972

Inventors:

Randall G. Richards - Canton GA, US

Colin Berido - Bagshot, GB

Assignee:

Bush Boake Allen, Inc. - Montvale NJ

International Classification:

B65D025/08

US Classification:

206219

Abstract:

The present invention is directed to a compartmentalized storage system for temporarily storing and subsequently mixing at least two different substances. The compartmentalized storage system comprises a first storing compartment, with an optional a tearable seal, containing a solid sorbing substrate, such as a wipe, and a first substance. The compartmentalized storage system further comprises a second storing compartment having a second substance. The first and the second compartments are attached to each other by at least one common side, which common side comprises a frangible seal connecting the first and the second compartments. By applying force to the frangible seal, the seal will break and thereby allow the second substance in the second storing compartment to be mixed with the solid sorbing substrate and the first substance in the first storing compartment.
