20230049955 · 2023-02-16 ·

An aroma diffuser device for diffusing selected scents into the airspace of interior habitable spaces is disclosed. The disclosed device includes multiple diffusers for diffusing multiple scents into a fan-induced airstream. Two, three or more diffusers can be included in and/or upon the device.

BENEFIT AGENT DELIVERY SYSTEM UTILIZING AN ELECTRIC FIELD
20230014009 · 2023-01-19 ·

A benefit agent delivery system can deliver benefit agents on demand. The benefit agent delivery system comprises a first electrode layer, a microcell layer comprising a plurality of microcells, and a porous second electrode layer. Each of the plurality of microcells are filled with a liquid mixture comprising reverse micelles in a hydrophobic liquid that are formed from a polar liquid, a surfactant or stabilizing particles, and a benefit agent. Application of an electric field across a microcell layer causes an increase in the rate of release of the benefit agent of the microcell through the porous second electrode layer.

SANITIZING AND ODOR ELIMINATION COMPOSITION AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME
20230015351 · 2023-01-19 ·

The present disclosure relates to a composition for sanitizing and de-odorizing air and method of making the same. The composition may reduce and eliminate airborne bacteria and odor in an environment. The composition may include ethyl alcohol, propylene glycol, an essence such as linalool or linalyl acetate.

BENEFIT AGENT DELIVERY SYSTEM COMPRISING REVERSE MICELLES
20230001188 · 2023-01-05 ·

A benefit agent delivery system can deliver benefit agents on demand. The benefit agent delivery system comprises a first electrode layer, a microcell layer comprising a plurality of microcells, and a porous second electrode layer. Each microcell of the plurality of microcells are filled with a liquid mixture comprising reverse micelles in a hydrophobic liquid that are formed from a polar liquid, an ionic surfactant, and a benefit agent. Application of an electric field on the microcell layer affects the rate of release of the benefit agent through the porous second electrode layer.

MODULATED SCENT RELEASE DEVICE

Described is a scent producing assembly having a self-contained module comprising an absorptive matrix infused with a volatile composition and a housing. The housing may include a receptacle shaped to receive the module, wherein the housing has a stowed position and a deployed position. In the stowed position, the receptacle may be contained within an interior of the housing. In the deployed position, the receptacle may be displaced out of the housing. The receptacle may move along an arcuate path when the receptacle is moved between the stowed and deployed positions.

Aerial Disinfection
20230034357 · 2023-02-02 ·

This disclosure relates to a method for disinfecting a space. The method includes spraying a composition containing triethylene glycol into a space containing severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in an amount effective to inactivate SARS-CoV-2.

MICROBIAL DISINFECTION FOR PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT

A photosensitizer formulation can be disposed on or in a mesh; net; netting; screen; curtain of strands, fibers, or monofilaments; substrate, personal protective gear, mask, or any other suitable object. The photosensitizer formulation, when in contact with molecular oxygen and activated by light or ultrasound, produces microbicidal singlet oxygen. A variety of different arrangements and applications are described. For example, an air flow device may also be included to generate a flow of air through or over the photosensitizer formulation. A fluorescent formulation may be included to monitor photobleaching. The photosensitizer formulation may be disposed in a concentration gradient to generate antigenic particles by damaging or destroying microbes.

Fragrance compositions containing low vapor pressure VOC solvents

A fragrance composition comprising a low vapor pressure VOC and at least one low vapor pressure VOC potentiator compound, which reduces, or altogether completely obviates the use of HVPVOC solvents in fragrance compositions.

MICROBIAL DISINFECTION FOR PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT

A photosensitizer formulation can be disposed on or in a container. The photosensitizer formulation, when in contact with molecular oxygen and activated by light or ultrasound, produces microbicidal singlet oxygen. A variety of different arrangements and applications are described. For example, an air flow device may also be included to generate a flow of air through or over the photosensitizer formulation.

ABSORBENT ARTICLE COMPRISING A MALODOR CONTROL COMPOSITION HAVING AN ACID CATALYST

An absorbent article comprising a complexed or encapsulated malodor control composition having at least one volatile aldehyde and an acid catalyst, and methods of use thereof, are provided. The malodor control composition is suitable for a variety of absorbent articles, including use in diapers, toddler training pants, adult incontinence garments, sanitary napkins, pantiliners, interlabial devices, hemorrhoid pads, and the like.
