Abstract
Abstract Packages are described wherein two compositions are maintained isolated from each other within a container, the first composition comprising a substance capable of releasing iodide ion and the second composition comprising hydrogen peroxide. The container is fitted with valve means which communicate with each composition. Actuation of the valve means results in mixing portions of each composition and dispensing of the mixture as a composition containing iodine.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
112 words
A package adapted for the dispensing of an antiseptic iodine-containing composition therefrom which comprises a pressure-tight container with means to maintain two ingredients therein isolated from each other, the first of said ingredients comprising about 2 - 50 weight percent of an alkali metal iodide selected from the group consisting of potassium iodide and sodium iodide and the second of said ingredients comprising about 2 - 30 weight percent hydrogen peroxide, a liquified gaseous propellant in at least one of said ingredients and valve means communicating with each of said ingredients adapted to mix effective portions of each of said ingredients to dispense from said package a heated composition containing free iodine.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
112 words
A package adapted for the dispensing of an antiseptic iodine-containing composition therefrom which comprises a pressure-tight container with means to maintain two ingredients therein isolated from each other, the first of said ingredients comprising about 2 - 50 weight percent of an alkali metal iodide selected from the group consisting of potassium iodide and sodium iodide and the second of said ingredients comprising about 2 - 30 weight percent hydrogen peroxide, a liquified gaseous propellant in at least one of said ingredients and valve means communicating with each of said ingredients adapted to mix effective portions of each of said ingredients to dispense from said package a heated composition containing free iodine.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
107 words
A package according to claim 1 wherein said package is in aerosol form and wherein said liquified gaseous propellant is provided by including a liquified gas of the type used as an aerosol propellant in one of said ingredients contained within the main body portion of the container and wherein the other of said ingredients is contained within a separate compartment within said container separated from said first ingredient by a movable wall operable by a differential in pressure between said compositions upon actuation of said valve means, said liquified gas having a vapor pressure at 70°F. of between 12 and 85 pounds per square inch gauge.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
18 words
A package according to claim 2 wherein said first ingredient comprises an aqueous solution of alkali metal iodide.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
44 words
A package according to claim 3 wherein said means to apply pressure is provided by including a liquified propellant with said first and second ingredients, said liquified propellant having a vapor pressure at 70°F. of between 12 and 85 pounds per square inch gauge.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
65 words
The package of claim 2 including with said first ingredient between about 1 to 25 weight percent of a thermogenic agent selected from the group consisting of potassium, sodium, and ammonium salts of thiosulfuric, thiocyanic, thioglycollic and sulfurous acids and about one percent or less by weight of a catalyst selected from the group consisting of sodium molybdate, sodium titanate, sodium vanadate, and sodium tungstate.
