The invention is an article of manufacture, comprising a blend of: (A) from 1 to 50 weight percent of at least one block copolymer, wherein the block copolymer has at least one polystyrene block and at least one unsaturated rubber segment; and (B) from 99 to 50 weight percent of a natural oil. The natural oil of this invention is of natural animal, plant or vegetable oils or mixtures thereof, and the block copolymers have a polystyrene block and a rubber block where the rubber blocks are unsaturated rubbers such as polyisoprene, polybutadiene, or mixtures thereof. The block copolymers useful for the present invention are triblock polymers, radial (star) polymers, multiblock polymers, diblock polymers, or mixtures thereof.

Natural oil gels and their applications

The present invention relates to absorbent articles including non-aqueous compositions for protecting the barrier function of the skin. The compositions can be applied to the bodyfacing surfaces of absorbent articles so that the compositions come into contact with the skin. The compositions of the invention have improved stability on the bodyfacing surfaces after processing. The compositions of the invention provide several benefits including prevention and alleviation of skin irritations associated with the use of absorbent articles. The compositions can include emollients, viscosity enhancers and extracted botanical actives.

A bleach granule is provided with 60-100% being an intimate mixture of an amido or imido C.sub.2 -C.sub.30 peroxy acid and a surfactant, in a weight ratio of 20:1 to 1:20. The most preferred peroxyacids are N,N-phthaloylaminoperoxycaproic acid (PAP); monononylamide of either peroxysuccinic acid (NAPSA) or peroxyadipic acid (NAPAA) and N,N'-terephthaloyl-di(6-aminoperoxycaproic acid) (TPCAP). Localized dye damage from the peroxy acid bleach is prevented by the presence of the surfactant. Bleach compositions and a method for cleaning a stained substrate with the bleach granule are also described.

Amido- and imido- peroxycarboxylic acid bleach granules

A tumble dryer article comprising: a mixture of at least two surfactants, (i) a first surfactant present in an amount of about 5 wt. % to about 70 wt. % and having an endotherm peak temperature of from about 75.degree. C. to about 155.degree. C., (ii) a second surfactant present in an amount of about 30 wt. % to about 95 wt. % and having an endotherm peak temperature of from about 35.degree. C. to about 70.degree. C., wherein the peak temperatures of the first and second surfactant of the mixture are different from each other by at least about 1.degree. C. as measured in a differential scanning calorimeter device and a melting transition temperature of the mixture being from about 50.degree. C. to about 120.degree. C.; and dispenser means for dispensing the mixture onto fabrics in a tumble dryer.
