Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A consumer product composition comprises a non-porous dissolvable solid structure comprising from about 30% to about 95%, by weight of the consumer product composition, of a carrier material, and from about 5% to about 50%, by weight of the consumer product composition, of a hydrophobic conditioning agent disposed within the carrier material of the non-porous dissolvable solid structure. The carrier material comprises a polyethylene glycol material, or mixtures thereof, having a molecular weight of from about 200 to about 50,000. The hydrophobic conditioning agent is selected from the group consisting of silicone materials, organic conditioning oils, hydrocarbon oils, fatty esters, metathesized unsaturated polyol esters, silane-modified oils, and mixtures thereof.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A consumer product composition comprising a non-porous dissolvable solid structure comprising from about 30% to about 95%, by weight of said consumer product composition, of a carrier material comprising a polyethylene glycol material, or mixtures thereof, having a molecular weight of from about 200 to about 50,000, and from about 5% to about 50%, by weight of said consumer product composition, of a hydrophobic conditioning agent disposed within said carrier material, wherein said hydrophobic conditioning agent is selected from the group consisting of silicone materials, organic conditioning oils, hydrocarbon oils, fatty esters, metathesized unsaturated polyol esters, silane-modified oils, and mixtures thereof. 2 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said polyethylene glycol material, or mixtures thereof, has a molecular weight of from about 500 to about 20,000. 3 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said polyethylene glycol material, or mixtures thereof, has a molecular weight of from about 1,000 to about 15,000. 4 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said consumer product composition comprises from about 5% to about 40%, by weight of said consumer product composition, of said hydrophobic conditioning agent. 5 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said consumer product composition comprises from about 10% to about 40%, by weight of said consumer product composition, of said hydrophobic conditioning agent. 6 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said consumer product composition comprises from about 50% to about 95%, by weight of the consumer product composition, of said carrier material. 7 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said consumer product composition comprises from about 60% to about 95%, by weight of the consumer product composition, of said carrier material. 8 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said hydrophobic conditioning agent has a viscosity at 70° C. of from about 0.1 to about 2000 Pa·s. 9 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said hydrophobic conditioning agent is a liquid at 25° C. 10 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said hydrophobic conditioning agent has a viscosity at 25° C. of from about 0.1 to about 2000 Pa·s. 11 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said carrier material has a viscosity at 70° C. of from about 0.005 to about 350 Pa·s. 12 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said carrier material has a melting point of from about 25° C. to about 120° C. 13 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said carrier material is a solid at 25° C. 14 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein a ratio of the viscosity of said hydrophobic conditioning agent at 70° C. to the viscosity of said carrier material at 70° C. is from about 1000:1 to about 1:1000. 15 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said carrier material disperses completely in 25° C. water within a Dispersion Time of less than 60 minutes. 16 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said carrier material disperses completely in 25° C. water within a Dispersion Time of less than about 10 minutes. 17 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein the mean particle size of said hydrophobic conditioning agent disposed within said carrier material is from about 2 μm to about 2000 μm. 18 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein the mean particle size of said hydrophobic conditioning agent disposed within said carrier material is from about 2 μm to about 500 μm. 19 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein the mean particle size of said hydrophobic conditioning agent disposed within said carrier material is from about 2 μm to about 120 μm. 20 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said hydrophobic conditioning agent comprises polyisobutene or a silicone material. 21 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said hydrophobic conditioning agent comprises a terminal aminosilicone or a polydimethylsiloxane. 22 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said consumer product composition is in the form of a plurality of beads, having an average maximum cross-sectional dimension of from about 0.05 to about 50 mm. 23 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said consumer product composition is in the form of a plurality of beads, having an average maximum cross-sectional dimension of from about 0.3 to about 10 mm. 24 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said consumer product composition is in the form of a plurality of beads, having an average maximum cross-sectional dimension of from about 0.5 to about 5 mm. 25 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said consumer product composition is in the form of a plurality of beads having an average aspect ratio of from about 1:1 to about 1000:1. 26 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said consumer product composition comprises a ratio of the level of carrier material to the level of hydrophobic conditioning agent of from about 1:1 to about 20:1. 27 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said consumer product composition comprises less than about 5%, by weight of said consumer product composition, of water. 28 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said consumer product composition comprises less than about 5%, by weight of said consumer product composition, of detersive surfactant and/or cleansing surfactant. 29 . The consumer product composition of claim 1 , wherein said consumer product composition is a non-porous solid consumer product composition. 30 .
