Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2000/057843
Kind Code:
A2
Abstract:
A lotion suitable for use in a disposable wiping article is disclosed. The lotion can be used to wet pre-moistened wet wipes, and is particularly suited for use in pop-up dispensing systems of disposable wet wipes, such as baby wipes. The lotion provides for improved reliability of pop-up dispensing while maintaining adequate wet impression. The lotion is an aqueous solution comprising a surfactant selected from the group consisting of phosphate-quaternary amine compounds and non-ionic surfactants, and effective amounts of a second ingredient selected from the group consisting of non-cellulosic organic water soluble polymers and alkoxylated alcohols. Other ingredients such as preservatives and fragrances can also be included in the lotion.

Claims:
What is claimed is:
| 1. | A lotion suitable for use in a disposable wiping article, the lotion being an aqueous solution comprising a surfactant selected from the group consisting of phosphate quaternary amine compounds and nonionic surfactants, and effective amounts of a second ingredient selected from the group consisting of noncellulosic organic water soluble polymers and alkoxylated alcohols. |
| 2. | The lotion of Claim 1, wherein the phosphatequaternary amine compound is selected from the group consisting of Coco Phosphatidyl PGDimonium Chloride, Cocamidopropyl Phosphatidyl PGDimonium Chloride, and Stearamidopropyl Phosphatidyl PGDimonium Chloride. |
| 3. | The lotion of Claim 2, wherein the lotion comprises less than about 3 percent by weight of the phosphatequaternary amine compound. |
| 4. | The lotion of Claim 1, wherein the noncellulosic organic water soluble polymer is selected from the group consisting of synthetic polymers. |
| 5. | A wiping article comprising a nonwoven substrate premoistened with a lotion, the lotion being an aqueous solution characterized by a surfactant selected from the group consisting of phosphatequaternary amine compounds and nonionic surfactants, and effective amounts of a second ingredient selected from the group consisting of noncellulosic organic water soluble polymers and alkoxylated alcohols. |
| 6. | The article of Claim 14 wherein the substrate is wetted with at least 1.0 gram of lotion per gram of dry substrate weight. |
| 7. | A popup dispensing system for reliable single dispensing of discreet premoistened wipes in consecutive order, the system characterized by: (a) a container having an interior portion and an aperture for drawing through the premoistened wet wipes in consecutive order; (b) a plurality of the premoistened wipes, the wipes being stacked, folded and interleaved and interleaved in the interior portion of the container; wherein the premoistened wipes are wetted with a lotion, the lotion being an aqueous solution comprising a surfactant selected from the group consisting of phosphatequaternary amine compounds and nonionic surfactants, and effective amounts of a second ingredient selected from the group consisting of noncellulosic organic water soluble polymers and alkoxylated alcohols. |
| 8. | The popup dispensing system of Claim 18, wherein the premoistened wipes comprise a nonwoven substrate. |
| 9. | The popup dispensing system of Claim 18, wherein the aperture is substantially S shaped. |
| 10. | The popup dispensing system of Claim 18, wherein the fold pattern is substantially an interfolded Zfold. |
