Abstract
A disposable wipe impregnated with furniture polish or another surface treating liquid such as a hard surface cleaner or insect repellant is disclosed. The liquid is in the form of a dispersion which is a biliquid foam with a thickener, where the foam is structured as an oil-in-water complex. The dispersion has an oil portion having a polysiloxane and/or a hydrocarbon oil. There is also surfactant such as one nonionic surfactant and one polar surfactant. Water is also provided. The biliquid structure stabilizes the dispersion even with very low levels of surfactant, while the thickener retards migration of the impregnated liquid in response to gravity.
