The present invention relates to a low-irritation anesthetic and antiseptic mouth rinse. The mouth rinse is freeze-thaw stable and is prepared using polyethylene glycol having a number average molecular weight of 200 to 300 which have been found to be compatible with local anesthetics and other ingredients commonly used in mouth rinses.

Low-irritation anesthetic and antiseptic mouth rinse

This invention relates to a method for rendering a surface substantially impervious to alpha particle radiation such as that produced through radon decay. More particularly, the present invention involves applying to said surface an emulsion containing a sulfopolyester and a copolymer of vinyl acetate and dialkyl maleate, and a plasticizer. The sulfopolyester-acrylic copolymer blend produces a stable alpha particle radiation barrier on sand, rocks and soil.

Radon barrier film forming compositions

This invention relates to aerosol hair spray formulations based on (1) a sulfonate-containing, water-dispersible or water-dissipatible, linear polyester having a glass transition temperature of about 36.degree. C. to about 40.degree. C. and (2) a water-soluble, polyvinyl lactam polymer. In addition, the formulations contain water as the liquid vehicle and a propellant. Such aerosol hair spray formulations do not contain any volatile organic compounds other than propellant yet exhibit fast drying times and excellent performance characteristics.

Aerosol hair spray formulations

This invention relates to a cosmetic film forming composition which is especially useful as a nail coating composition which upon drying forms a film which will adhere to keratin of a nail. More particularly, the present invention relates to cosmetic film forming compositions which consist of aqueous emulsion (A) which comprises a sulfopolyester and a copolymer of vinyl acetate and dialkyl maleate, and aqueous emulsion (B) which comprises an aqueous emulsion of acetoacetoxyethyl alkylacrylate or the reaction product of acetoacetoxyethyl alkylacrylate with a vinylfunctional monomer. These cosmetic film forming compositions are fast drying, have good adhesive properties and are environmentally compatible.
