Roll-on application of aqueous microencapsulated products

Claim 1

A roll-on deodorant or antiperspirant powdery cream or lotion composition comprising a roll-on system for applying said composition to the axillae of a user comprising in combination: a container including; a compartment within the container receiving; said composition which comprises a stabilized water-in-air suspension including a discontinuous liquid phase comprising small, discrete, stable droplets of aqueous liquid, each droplet of said liquid being coated and stabilized with an interfacial barrier of very fine, hydrophobic metal oxide particles of the formula e O-MR a Xb where e represents the oxide surface; O is oxygen; M is metal selected from the group consisting of silicon, titamium, aluminum, zirconium, vanadium, iron or mixtures thereof, R is an organo group selected from the group consisting of alkyl, aryl, arylalkyl, alkoxy and aryloxy, a is a number from 1 through 3, X is a halogen or hydroxy b is a number from 0 through 2, a+b=3 and containing at least 0.5% by weight of said organo groups, said coated droplets being suspended in an external air phase such that the density is from 0.3 to 1.5 g/cc and the ratio of hydrophobic metal oxide to aqueous liquid being from 1/1 to 50/1 and the suspension including in parts by weight: 25% to 98.9% of aqueous liquid; 1% to 15% hydrophobic metal oxide, and 0.1% to 16% deodorant or antiperspirant compound; a seat member; and a rotating member received by solid seat member to define an outlet therebetween through which said suspension is dispersed onto said axillae from said compartment on rotation of said member; said outlet being sized to apply preselected shear to said suspension in an amount sufficient to at least partially destabilize the suspension to coalesce at least 10% of said droplets into larger droplets.
