The invention relates to bar composition comprising minimum floor levels of Csoap while minimizing ratio of unsaturated Csoap to caprate. Such bars provide enhanced rapid, antibacterial activity. Disclosed is a soap bar composition comprising: a) 25 to 85%, preferably 35 to 75% by weight of Cto Cfatty acid soap comprising: (i) C10 soap at 8% or 15% or greater, more preferably 16 to 32% by weight of total bar composition; and, (ii) unsaturated Csoap, wherein weight ratio of said unsaturated Csoap to C(caprate) soap is 1.2 to 0.1. b) 1 to 45% organic and inorganic adjuvant materials by weight of the composition; and, c) 5 to 30%, preferably 13 to 28% water by weight of the composition, wherein excess of Csoap to unsaturated Csoap is at least 6%.

Bar compositions comprising Csoap while minimizing ratio of unsaturated Csoap to caprate

The present invention relates to an extruded soap bar composition. It more particularly relates to a soap bar composition which delivers the enhanced antimicrobial benefit to skin while ensuring that the soap bar is easy to extrude. This is achieved by including free fatty acids in the soap bar composition while ensuring that part of the free fatty acid is hydroxy stearic acid.

Extruded soap bar containing 12-hydroxystearic acid with enhanced antimicrobial efficacy

The present invention relates to an extruded bar soap composition. It more particularly relates to a soap bar composition which exhibits better bloom (perfume impact) and better deposition of actives as compared to conventional soap bars. This is obtained by ensuring that the amount of oleate soap is kept low while incorporating some amount of ricinoleate soap.

Soap bar with improved perfume impact and deposition of actives

The present invention provides a cleansing composition comprising 10 to 30 wt % soap, 20 to 45 wt % water soluble organic solvent, 20 to 40 wt % water, 3 to 20 wt % electrolyte other than soap and a benefit agent.

Cleansing composition with improved availability of benefit agent

A soap bar comprising: (a) 25 to 85% by weight, based on the total weight of the bar, of fatty acid soap; (b) 0.1 to 100 ppm by weight, based on the total weight of the bar, of at least one silver (I) compound having a selected silver ion solubility, wherein at 25&#xb0; C., a 1 wt % solution of the bar in water has a pH of from 9 to 11.

Soap bar having enhanced antibacterial activity

Method of cleansing human skin employing an aqueous soap composition comprising of fatty acid soap, at least one silver (I) compound having a silver ion solubility (in water at 25&#xb0; C.) of at least 1&#xd7;10mol/L, and water, which composition provides biocidal activity against Gram positive bacteria in particular, in relatively short contact periods.

Liquid soap having enhanced antibacterial activity

Disclosed is an aqueous composition having viscosity from 1 to 100 cP at 20&#xb0; C., said composition comprising: (i) an oligodynamic metal or ions thereof; (ii) a chelating agent; and, (iii) free alkali less than 1 wt %, wherein said composition comprises 0.01 wt % to 2 wt % of a salt of an organic acid; pH of the composition is from 9 to 12 and molar ratio of said oligodynamic metal to said chelating agent is 1:0.25 to 1:10. The composition provides a robust solution for technical problems of discoloration and instability.

Aqueous composition containing oligodynamic metal

In one aspect is disclosed a cleansing composition comprising: (i) a surfactant; (ii) an oligodynamic metal or ions thereof; (iii) a chelating agent; and, a polymer having a group comprising a site having one or more lone pair of electrons wherein, said surfactant is soap. The polymer having a group comprising a site having one or more lone pair of electrons enhances the antimicrobial efficacy of the oligodynamic metal.

Cleansing composition containing oligodynamic metal and efficacy enhancing agent

Disclosed is a cleansing composition having pH of at least 9, said composition comprising: (i) 20 to 85 wt % anionic surfactant; and, (ii) a silver(I) compound having silver ion solubility (in water at 25&#xb0; C.) of at least 1&#xd7;10mol/L, at a level equivalent to silver content of 0.01 to 100 ppm, wherein the free alkali content of said composition is less than 0.01%. The composition is a robust and improved cleansing composition with a stable colour.

Cleansing compositions containing stable silver

Disclosed is a cleansing composition comprising: (i) a non-soap surfactant which is an alkyi glycinate, alkyi carboxy glycinate, sarcosinate, glutamate or a mixture thereof; and, (ii) one or more antimicrobial agent, wherein pH of said composition is at least 8.5 and zein number of said composition is in the range of 10 to 65 and wherein soap content of said composition is not greater than 5 wt %. The formulation is highly alkaline, yet gives mild antibacterial cleansing action.
