A preform suitable for blow molding into for an outer container usable for a pressurized aerosol dispenser. The preform has a longitudinal axis and a closed end bottom, an open neck. The neck has threads for accepting a valve having complementary threads. At least one pawl or ratchet is operatively juxtaposed with the periphery of the preform. The at least one pawl or ratchet allows onward rotation of the complementary valve in an onward direction, and prevents detachment of the valve in a reverse rotation direction. Any such preform can be blow molded into a corresponding outer container, and any such outer container can be blow molded from a corresponding preform.

A flow reducer (10) for a pressurized product dispenser of the type provided with a valve (30) equipped with a stem (20) having at least a first path, and with a diffuser, is a part separate from the stem and the diffuser, and includes a recess open on one side via an opening and adapted to be fitted by the opening over the stem (20) of a valve (30), one or more first outlet orifices (134) which, when the reducer is mounted on the stem (20) of a valve, are adapted to be connected in a sealed manner to the first path of the stem (20) of the valve, thus forming an extension (133) of the first path, the outer face of the reducer, on the side opposite to the opening of the recess, having in part a contour substantially identical to that of the portion of the stem (20) protruding from the valve which is intended to be covered by the reducer.

Various implementations of the invention are directed toward a sanitizing door handle and/or components of such sanitizing door handle. Some implementations of the invention are directed toward a manual sanitizing door handle while some implementations of the invention are directed toward an auto-sanitizing door handle. According to some implementations of the invention, a sanitizing fluid is dispensed directly onto an exterior surface of the sanitizing door handle in connection with an operation of the door handle to sanitize the door handle. According to some implementations of the invention, a sanitizing fluid is dispensed directly onto a user's hand(s) in connection with an operation of the door handle to sanitize the user's hand(s).

An aerosol container for an aerosol dispenser. The aerosol container has an outer container. The outer container has a closed end bottom and a longitudinally opposed threaded open neck. The open neck has one or more pawls or ratchets disposed near the neck. The pawls or ratchets allow a complementary valve to be threaded onto the neck. The valve has complementary ratchets or pawls. The ratchet and pawl combination co-acts to impede or even prevent reverse rotation and subsequent removal of the valve. The outer container may be made from a preform having the ratchets and/or pawls integrally molded as part of the injection molding process. A valve having a housing may have ratchets and or pawls integrally molded as part of the injection molding process.

The present invention relates to an aerosol device including: —a container containing: —one or more propellants, and--a composition including one or more sebum-absorbing powders with a sebum uptake of greater than or equal to 35 m1/100 g, the propellant(s) possibly being present in the composition or, in the container, separate from the composition, —an aerosol device for dispensing the said aerosol composition, including a diffuser equipped with at least two, and better three, spray orifices (22). The invention also relates to a process for the dry-washing and cosmetic treatment of keratin materials, including a step of applying to the hair the cosmetic composition, sprayed from the particular aerosol device.
