US Classification:

252 891, 252 861, 38144, 427370, 4273932

Abstract:

Polymer compositions, while providing suitable wrinkle control, also tend to dispense poorly when sprayed. The present invention shows that when viscosity of polymer compositions is minimized spray dispensing improves. Several approaches to minimizing the viscosity of polymer compositions are disclosed. Methods of controlling wrinkles in fabrics comprise treating fabrics with a variety of polymer compositions following a variety of methods. Articles of manufacture comprise (1) a container or substrate, (2) a wrinkle controlling composition, and (3) a set of instructions.

US Classification:

252 891, 38144, 252 861, 427370, 4273932

Abstract:

The present invention relates to selecting dispensers having optimal spray patterns for use together with aqueous wrinkle removal and/or reduction compositions to minimize the potential to stain fabrics and significantly reduce drying time associated with aqueous-based wrinkle control compositions. The present invention also relates to wrinkle control compositions suitable for use in dispensers with optimal spray patterns and articles of use including instructions for use. The present invention also relates to methods of use for wrinkle control compositions in dispensers with optimal spray patterns.

Abstract:

An apparatus for dispensing paper. The apparatus allows for the use of an existing wall-mounted dispenser without requiring any modification to the existing wall-mounted unit. The apparatus can also be free-standing or portable. The apparatus will accommodate rolled paper or sheets of paper. The apparatus also comprises an automated system for moistening and/or cleansing which enables the user to optionally moisten the paper and/or apply a cleansing agent to the paper if so desired. The degree (i. e. ; the amount) of moistening or cleansing agent applied may be controlled by the user.

International Classification:

B29C 4706

US Classification:

264167, 26417113, 264286

Abstract:

The present invention provides a process which in a preferred embodiment includes the steps of. (a) applying a hot melt adhesive to a heated roll rotating at an initial tangential speed; (b) milling the adhesive to a reduced thickness and accelerating said adhesive through a series of metering gaps between a plurality of adjacent heated glue rolls; (c) applying the adhesive to a conformable glue application roll rotating at a tangential line speed which is higher than the initial tangential speed; (d) applying the adhesive to a first patterned embossing roll which is engaged with a second patterned embossing roll having a complementary pattern to the first embossing roll, the embossing rolls being heated; (e) passing a web of sheet material between the first and second embossing rolls at the tangential line speed to simultaneously emboss the web and apply the adhesive to the web, such that the adhesive forms an adhesive pattern between embossments; (f) transferring the web from the second embossing roll to the first embossing roll; (g) stripping the web from the first embossing roll; and (h) cooling the web.
