Active agent-containing articles, for example fibrous structures, that exhibit consumer acceptable article in-use properties, such as flexibility, article dimensions, and/or dissolvability, and product-shipping assemblies for containing the same are provided.

The present invention relates to compounds of formula (I) as herein defined, capable of releasing fragrant compounds in a controlled manner into the surroundings. The present invention is also concerned with a process for their production, and consumer products comprising them.

Provided are a cleaning agent and a preparation method and the use thereof. The cleaning agent is prepared from the following raw materials comprising the following mass fraction of components: 0.5%-20% of an oxidant containing iodine, 0.5%-20% of an etchant containing boron, 1%-50% of a pyrrolidinone solvent, 1%-20% of a corrosion inhibitor, 0.01%-5% of a metal ion-free surfactant, and water, with the sum of the mass fraction of each component being 100%, the pH of the cleaning agent is 7.5-13.5, and the corrosion inhibitor is one or more of a benzotriazole corrosion inhibitor, a hydrazone corrosion inhibitor, a carbazone corrosion inhibitor and a thiocarbohydrazone corrosion inhibitor. The cleaning agent can efficiently remove nitrides from hard mask residues with little effects on metals and low-κ dielectric materials, and has a good selectivity.

The present invention relates to the field of perfumery. More particularly, it concerns malodor masking compositions and/or ingredients, as well as method for counteracting or masking malodors and perfuming compositions having odor masking properties.

The invention relates to specific active compositions for producing highly viscous laundry and cleaning formulations, particularly laundry fabric softeners, to a method for the production thereof and to said laundry and cleaning formulations. High viscosity can be achieved in the products according to the invention despite a low concentration of active compositions and without using additional thickeners.

The invention to provide an foamable silicone composition, that would easily integrate or mix with the powder or liquid detergent composition having reduced active ingredient having enhanced or similar detergency effect i.e. foaming and dirt removal characteristics and having no negative effect on the detergency and the preferred foaming nature of the detergent during the washing cycle. The foamable silicone composition comprising a silicone composition comprising a siloxane comprising a polyoxyalkylene group having 19 to 30 oxyalkylene group, with the proviso that the siloxane contain at least one oxyalkylene radical per molecule.

Treatment compositions for use in laundry capable of providing sanitization through the wash e.g., for use with a detergent, where the compositions include an inorganic zinc salt potentiated by a phenolic solvent, to provide sanitization. The compositions can include an inorganic zinc salt, and a phenolic solvent, e.g., at an acidic pH (e.g., 2 to 5, or 3.5 to 4.5). The composition can include an anionic surfactant (e.g., alkyl sulfates, alkyl ether sulfates, etc.) and/or a nonionic surfactant (e.g., an alkyl polyglucoside). The composition may be free of alkoxylated nonionic surfactants which are not stable in the present compositions, which have high ionic strength (e.g., due to ˜3% of the zinc salt included in the formula). The composition may be free of various other components that would not be stable in such high ionic strength conditions, or otherwise interfere with stability and efficacy of the sanitizing and/or disinfecting laundry composition.

Described herein, are in-wash fabric conditioning compositions, comprising: from about 0.5 to about 40 wt % of an aminopolysiloxane; and water, wherein the aminopolysiloxane and water are present in the form of an emulsion. In-wash fabric conditioning compositions comprising an emulsion comprising from about 0.1 to about 5 wt % of an aminopolysiloxane, based upon the total weight of the in-wash fabric conditioning composition, wherein the aminopolysiloxane comprises amino substituted alkyl moieties, an effective amount of a solvent, and a synthetic wax, are also disclosed. Methods of making and using these compositions are also described.

A fluid washing composition with four separate components and laundry washing kit thereof is disclosed. The four components are housed in respective independent tanks of a laundry washing machine equipped with a program for selecting, dosing and differentiated delivering. Component 1 is a detergent formulation with a pH of 4.0-12.0, with high detergent effect in washing programs at temperatures of 40°-60° C., having a specific action on cotton fibers, particularly, whites. Component 2 is a detergent formulation with a pH of 8.0-12.0, with high detergent effect in washing programs at temperatures of 15°-40° C., having a specific action on synthetic, colored and animal-origin fibers. Component 3 is an enzyme-based stain-removing formulation including protease and lipase and possibly amylase with a pH of 5.0-6.0, stabilized with sorbitol and calcium chloride. Component 4 is an after-wash conditioning formulation, with a pH of 2.0-4.0.

The need for a detergent composition which provides reduced dye transfer to co-washed fabrics, but also reduced dye fading during laundering is met by formulating the detergent composition with a combination of a branched nonionic surfactant and a dye transfer inhibition (DTI) polymer.
