This provides an improved process for making a flexible, porous, dissolvable solid sheet article with improved pore structures.

This provides an improved dissolvable solid article with a specific aspect ratio. Such dissolvable solid article has a multilayer structure comprising two or more flexible, dissolvable, porous sheets, while each of which comprises a water-soluble polymer and a surfactant and is characterized by a Percent Open Cell Content of from 80% to 100% and an Overall Average Pore Size of from 100 μm to 2000 μm. The multilayer dissolvable solid article is characterized by a maximum dimension D and a minimum dimension z; and wherein the ratio of D/z ranges from 1 to 10.

The personal care compositions of the present invention are in the form of an Article comprising a dissolvable fibrous web structure. The fibers of the dissolvable fibrous web structure comprise a surfactant; a water soluble polymeric structurant; and a plasticizer. Additionally the ratio of the water soluble water soluble polymeric structurant to the active agent in the fiber is 3.5 or less.

The present invention concerns an orodispersible self-supporting film free from hydrocolloids comprising: a) a film-forming substance consisting of a maltodextrin in an amount comprised between 40 and 80% by weight; b) a plasticizer in an amount comprised between 15 and 55% by weight; e) a surfactant System in an amount comprised between 0.5 and 6% by weight; d) an active ingredient for food or therapeutic use in an amount between 0.05 and 30% by weight, characterised in that it contains a homopolymer or a copolymer of vinyl acetate in a quantity comprised between 2 and 10% by weight where the percentages are calculated on the total weight of said film.

A dentifrice composition is described comprising a source of free fluoride ions; and from 0.1% to less than 0.5% by weight of the composition of a copolymer of methyl vinyl ether with maleic anhydride or acid; and wherein the composition has a slurry pH from 6.0 to 7.5, and wherein the composition is free of a carboxylic acid or alkali metal salt thereof wherein the acid is selected from the group consisting of malonic acid, glutaric acid, tartaric acid, lactic acid and mixtures thereof. The composition enhances fluoride uptake into teeth and provides protection against acidic challenges.
