DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0015] Reference will now be made in detail to selected embodiments of the present disclosure in conjunction with accompanying figures. The embodiments described herein are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure, and the present disclosure should not be construed as limited to the embodiments described. This disclosure may be embodied in different forms without departing from the scope and spirit of the disclosure. It should be understood that the accompanying figure is intended and provided to illustrate embodiments of the disclosure described below and are not necessarily drawn to scale. In the drawing, like numbers refer to like elements throughout, and thicknesses and dimensions of some components may be exaggerated for providing better clarity and ease of understanding.

[0016] It should be noted that the terms “first”, “second”, and the like, herein do not denote any order, ranking, quantity, or importance, but rather are used to distinguish one element from another. Further, the terms “a” and “an” herein do not denote a limitation of quantity, but rather denote the presence of at least one of the referenced item.

[0017] FIG. 1 illustrates a top view of a water soluble substrate 100, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. The water soluble substrate 100 has a first side 105 and a second side. The second side is described in conjunction with FIG. 2. The first side 105 has a first predefined region 110 and the second side has a second predefined region respectively. At least one of the first predefined region 110 and the second predefined region has a detergent coating. In an embodiment of the present invention, the detergent coating on one or more of the first predefined region 110 and the second predefined region has one or more of poly vinyl alcohol, 1-dodecanol, fatty alcohol poly glycol ether and parfum. In an embodiment of the present invention, the first predefined region 110 and the second predefined region have different surface areas. In an embodiment of the present invention, the area of the water soluble substrate 100 is less than 30 mm square. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the water suable substrate 100 has a predefined thickness less than 1 mm. In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the water soluble substrate 100 is made of non-woven fiber joined by a water soluble adhesive, such that the water soluble substrate 100 disintegrates or dissolves in water.

[0018] FIG. 2 illustrates a bottom view of the water soluble substrate 100, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. A second side 115 of the water soluble substrate 100 has a second predefined region 120. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first predefined region 110 is defined by a first shape and the second predefined region 120 is defined by a second shape. For example, the first predefined region 110 is shown to be a rectangle and the second predefined region 120 is shown to be a triangle. It should be noted that the shapes are shown for explanation purpose and does not intend to limit the scope of the disclosure. In an embodiment of the present invention, the first predefined region 110 has a first area coated with a detergent and the second predefined region 120 has a second area coated with a conditioner. The areas, quality and adhesion of detergent and the conditioner is such that the conditioner survives the washing cycle.

[0019] FIG. 3 illustrates the water soluble substrate 100, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. The water soluble substrate 100 has non-woven fibers 125 joined by water soluble adhesive 130.

[0020] Accordingly, while only a few embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it is obvious that many changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
