A correction fluid containing a composite that includes particles composed of a film-forming polymer, and a polymeric material.

Correction fluids comprising composite polymeric particles

Novel film-forming polymers having a carbon backbone and pendant groups containing quaternised nitrogen atoms, at least one substituent on the quaternised nitrogen being hydrophobic and containing at least 8 carbon atoms, have antiperspirant properties. For use as antiperspirants, they are dissolved or suspended in a non-aqueous carrier with a small amount of water.

Antiperspirants and method of applying antiperspirant using a shaped

A two part depilatory composition in which the first part comprises polyvinyl alcohol and the second part comprises a cross-linking agent which consists of borax and a polyhydroxy alcohol or of Congo red, the first or second or both parts additionally containing a depilatory agent, the two parts containing such proportions of the ingredients specified that when the parts are mixed in such proportions that there is sufficient borax or Congo red to effect cross-linking of the polyvinyl alcohol, the mixed composition contains sufficient depilatory agent to effect depilation in an acceptable period and, when the second part comprises borax, sufficient polyhydroxy alcohol to moderate the rate of cross-linking.
