Personal hygiene product

Synthetic musks are important ingredients for the fragrance industry. They are heavily used in laundry detergents, fabric softeners, cleaning products, air fresheners, and so on, and in cosmetic and personal hygiene products such as hand soap, shampoo, and perfume. Nitro, polycyclic, macrocyclic, and the newest dass, alicydic musks constitute the four major classes. The OSPAR (Oslo-Paris) Commission summarized information on their environmental behavior that was relevant to its charge, namely protection of the northeast Atlantic marine environment [37]. Most of the identified uses of synthetic musks are expected to lead to their release to... 

Fluorocarbons and fluoropolymers have been in commercial use for over half a century and have found their way into a diverse array of products. The members of this array are too numerous to hst but they include nonstick coatings for cookware, construction materials, carpets, textiles, paints, electronic materials, household cleaners and personal hygiene products. As fluorocarbons are expensive compared to their hydrocarbon analogues, they are chosen carefully and usually to fill a void in a product attribute that simply cannot be accommodated by another material. The attributes typically afforded by the use of fluorocarbons are repellency, lubricity, chemical and thermal inertness, and low dielectric constant, in regards to which fluorocarbons are unique among their hydrocarbon counterparts.

Plentifiil amounts of toxins are also found in our laundry detergents, fabric softeners (don t be fooled by their lovely names and pretty scents—these chemicals are some of the worst health offenders), room deodorizers, perfumes, colognes, air fresheners, cosmetics, and personal hygiene products. For eyeopening information on the effects of these toxins, the many hidden places they lurk, and how to eliminate them from your body, read my books The Brain Wash and The 4- Week Ultimate Body Detox Plan. Regardless of how you come into contact with them, the majority of these toxins acidify your body.

The most widely spread use of superabsorbent polymers is in personal hygiene products such as disposable infant diapers, feminine sanitary napkins, and adult incontinence articles. In particular, over 90% of the total superabsorbent polymers are sold as infant... 

Precautions should be taken with the cleaning products used in the lab and with personal hygiene products, because these often contain phthalates. 

A 7-day pretest period is adequate to assure elimination of any antimicrobial action residual from use of medicated personal hygiene products. During this period, subjects should be instructed to avoid using medicated hand soaps, hand wipes, hand gels, lotions, deodorants, and shampoos, as well as skin contact with solvents, detergents, acids, and bases or any other products known to affect the normal microbial populations of the skin. Each subject participant should be sup-... 

Personal hygiene products such as disposable diapers make use of self-adhesive strips, covered with a release tape that is removed at the point of use. Again unmodified acrylic dispersions as well as hot melts dominate this application. The same considerations apply here as in first-aid dressings, and in particular the adhesive must not cause skin irritation. 

Elastomeric nonwoven fabrics are also called elastomeric laminates. Tasi et al. (2011) reported a patent of an elastomeric nonwoven fabric based on Reiterer et al. (2004), which is resilient and can be used in the garments and personal hygienic products. It is a laminate structure that includes an olefin-based elastomeric film and an effective polymer. The film includes two elastomeric member layers. Each layer contains at least one olefin-based elastomeric polymer and one draw-down polymer. The monolayer/multilayer elastomeric polymer and the elastic carrier are laminated together to form the elastomeric laminate. One detailed manufacturing case was introduced. 

Household and personal hygiene products comprise another group of samples that can be screened and examined for volatile components. Thus, 1,4-dioxane in shampoos, ethylene oxide in cosmetics, and fragrances in soaps and cleaning fluids are examples of typical applications of the technique. 

It should be noted that cellophane, the first transparent packaging material, is biodegradable, but it and other biodegradable ceUulosic materials (such as paper) are not included in this discussion because they are not plastics. Biodegradable plastics designed primarily for medical apphcations, personal hygiene products, agricultural products, textiles, and so on also are not included. 

Nonwoven textile materials comprised fibers obtained from a blend of 5-95 wt% propylene, PP (or propylene/ ethylene copolymer with <10 wt% ethylene, EPR), and 95-5 % polyolefin, PO, selected from EPDM, EPR, LLDPE, etc. The materials have been used in disposable personal hygiene products or protective clothing. The products showed improved strength, drapability,... 

When talking about consumer products the selection of ingredients to use in formulations is a particular safety interest given the potential direct contact with consumers, for instance, in skin care or personal hygiene products. In this case we are not reacting chemicals, but we are forming emulsions or other types of mixtures that would become a formulated product such as a cream or an ointment, for example, diaper rash cream, moisturizing lotions, antibacterial ointments, sunscreens, and others.
