Abstract

Abstract A water-in-oil emulsion for treating of furniture surfaces, providing both superior gloss properties and superior cleaning of oil-borne deposits. The emulsion has silicone fluids and, in some cases, other film formers such as wax, resin, and/or non-drying oils, a suitable hydrocarbon solvent, water, and is characterized by an emulsifier system having from about 0.05 to 3% (by weight of the entire composition, excluding any propellant) of a cationic emulsifier which (1) is soluble in the hydrocarbon solvent, (2) is insoluble but dispersible in water, and (3) has an HLB value of less than about 10, and from 0 to about 5% of a nonionic emulsifier at least in an amount sufficient to stabilize the emulsion.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 17
Claim 1
Independent Claim 169 words
A surface-treating composition for furniture comprising a water-in-oil emulsion having: from about 0.1-10% (by weight of the composition excluding any propellants) of a film-forming organic polysiloxane; from 0 to about 5% of a surface-coating agent selected from the group consisting of film-forming wax and film-forming resin and combinations thereof; from 0 to about 20% of a non-drying oil; about 10-70% of a hydrocarbon solvent substantially the entire amount of which has a kauri-butanol value within the range of about 20-50 and boils within the range of about 80-200° C.; about 0.05-3% of a cationic emulsifier which is soluble in said hydrocarbon solvent but insoluble and dispersible in water and has an HLB value of less than about 10; from 0 to about 5% of a nonionic emulsifier at least in an amount sufficient to stabilize the emulsion; and at least about 20% water, said hydrocarbon solvent, water, film-forming materials and cationic emulsifier being selected in an amount to provide both high gloss properties and good cleaning of oil-borne deposits.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 169 words
A surface-treating composition for furniture comprising a water-in-oil emulsion having: from about 0.1-10% (by weight of the composition excluding any propellants) of a film-forming organic polysiloxane; from 0 to about 5% of a surface-coating agent selected from the group consisting of film-forming wax and film-forming resin and combinations thereof; from 0 to about 20% of a non-drying oil; about 10-70% of a hydrocarbon solvent substantially the entire amount of which has a kauri-butanol value within the range of about 20-50 and boils within the range of about 80-200° C.; about 0.05-3% of a cationic emulsifier which is soluble in said hydrocarbon solvent but insoluble and dispersible in water and has an HLB value of less than about 10; from 0 to about 5% of a nonionic emulsifier at least in an amount sufficient to stabilize the emulsion; and at least about 20% water, said hydrocarbon solvent, water, film-forming materials and cationic emulsifier being selected in an amount to provide both high gloss properties and good cleaning of oil-borne deposits.
