Use of volatile compositions to limit or eliminate the perception of malodor
The various aspects presented herein relate to the perfumery industry. More particularly, the various aspects presented herein relate to the use of volatile compositions to limit, decrease or eliminate the perception of malodor. Such compositions include at least one malodor antagonist optionally combined with perfuming ingredients. Such compositions, their use in combination with delivery systems and their applications in consumer products are also objects of the present disclosure.
Flexible wax and method of making same
The disclosure relates to flexible wax compositions and a method of making the same. Described herein is a wax composition containing about 20 wt % to about 45 wt % monoacylglycerides, about 28 wt % to about 40 wt % diacylglycerides, and about 10 wt % to about 45 wt % acylglyceride polymers, which contain one or more dimerized fatty acid residue and a plurality of glycerol moieties. The flexible wax composition described herein has an average creep stiffness of less than about 30 MPa and can be used in candles, paper coatings, box coatings, fruit coatings, broadsizing for OSB, tire and rubber, polyvinyl chloride piping, crayons, and personal care applications.
Rotary Separation Apparatus and Process of Use
A rotary separation devise deploys a drum with mesh like opening on the cylindrical surfaces and a removable cover or cap for filling in an upright position and removal of product or spent matter in an inverted position. When the drum is loaded with material, and the cover closed, it is rotatable to a horizontal position, and disposed in an outer container. The drum is rotated in the horizontal position to initiate the separation process. The outer container may be formed by the mating engagement at a common rim of an upper and lower vessel that form the sealed container.
SAMPLER FOR A SCENTED WAXY CANDLE AND PROCESS
A sampler is presented for a sample of a scented, waxy candle material. The scented, waxy material is melted and may be diluted with compatible additives and/or liquid (organic oil or hydrocarbon), before being layered to a face of a bottom layer. A top layer (3) is applied directly over the sample and can be adhered to the bottom layer to form a seal. In another embodiment a peripheral seal, is formed between the top and the bottom layers. The seal is separable by a user pulling on a tab a portion of the top layer to expose the face of the sample to the atmosphere allowing the volatile molecules present in the candle to be released. With a repositionable glue as a seal, the top layer can be replaced to prevent further release of volatile molecules. A method is also shown for making the sample.
Ecologically Friendly Candle Kit
A kit for assembling an eco-friendlier and more sustainable alternative to traditional candles, which is also versatile and user-friendly. The candle kit disclosed herein is comprised of entirely or mostly natural granulated candle wax and one or more compatible candle wicks supplied together as a set, in a readily biodegradable, and/or recyclable, sturdy packaging box. In one non-limiting embodiment granulated candle wax is poured into an existing container rather than being offered pre-molded and stuck to a candle container like traditional candles. One or more of the wicks included in the product can be inserted directly into the wax particles by the consumer to complete the candle.
Sage Candle Systems
A sage candle system suitable for use as a sage candle is provided. The system includes a longitudinal wick. The system also includes aggregate material configured for use as a candle arranged in a cylindrical fashion around the longitudinal wick. Additionally, the system includes an external covering material designed to cover an exterior surface of the aggregate material; and external strapping material positionable on an exterior surface of the covering material and structured to provide an opening on a top end of the sage candle system to allow igniting a top end of the longitudinal wick and wherein the external strapping material provides for structural support of the sage candle system during burning evolutions such that a functional integrity of the sage candle system is maintained during the burning evolutions and wherein the external strapping material provides for cinching a bottom end of the sage candle.
TOPICAL MACQUI BERRY FORMULATION
The present invention provides a topical formulation and method of use where the formulation comprises macqui berry or a macqui berry extract containing anthocyanins having a very high oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC). The formulation provides the macqui berry in a stabilized form which includes a glucuronide or glycuronide, a photostabilizing agent, encapsulation, or light- and/or air-blocking packaging.
Pre-blended candle wax product, method and kit for creating a candle or candle wax product
This invention relates to a pre-blended candle wax product, method and kit for quickly and easily pouring a candle or candle product. The product, method and kit may be used to offer an environmentally friendly option for re-pouring candle wax into a previously used candle container or any other suitable container.
WAX COMPOSITIONS AND THE EFFECT OF METALS ON BURN RATES
A wax composition is disclosed, comprising a hydrogenated natural oil with (i) at least about 50 wt % of a triacylglycerol component having a fatty acid composition from about 14 to about 25 wt % C16:0 fatty acid, about 45 to about 60 wt % C18:1 fatty acid and about 20 to about 30 wt % C18:0 fatty acid, (ii) a nickel content of less than 1 ppm, and (iii) a melt point of about 49° C. to about 57° C. The hydrogenated natural oil is filtered and/or bleached to obtain a nickel content of less than 0.5 ppm. A candle is also disclosed, comprising a wick and the above described wax.
