Bath salt composition
View Patent ↗The present invention is directed to a granulated composition comprising a salt encapsulated by a composition that comprises at least one wax.
1. A granulated composition comprising a salt encapsulated by an encapsulating composition that comprises at least one wax;
wherein the granulated composition comprises:
between 60-70% salt;
between 7-10% urea;
between 7-10% sodium bicarbonate; and
between 7-10% citric acid; and
wherein the granulated composition further comprises between 5-10% encapsulating composition.
2. The granulated composition as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the encapsulating composition comprises components selected such that the encapsulating composition melts at a temperature of between 30-600° C.
3. The granulated composition as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the encapsulating composition is selected from the group consisting of butyrospermum parkii , jojoba wax, mimosa wax, sunflower wax, polyethylene fatty ethers, Theobroma Cacao, Cocos Nucifera , and Mangifera Indica.
4. A granulated composition comprising:
layers of salt encapsulated by an encapsulating composition that comprises at least one wax;
a skin-conditioning composition coating the encapsulating composition; and
an effervescent composition coating the skin-conditioning composition.
5. The granulated composition as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the effervescent composition dissolves in a medium over a period of up to 20 seconds.

12. The granulated composition as claimed in claim 8 further comprising two or more encapsulating layers.
13. The granulated composition as claimed in claim 8 further comprising:
layers of salt encapsulated by the encapsulating composition;
urea coating the encapsulating composition; and
sodium bicarbonate and citric acid coating the urea.
14. The granulated composition as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the sodium bicarbonate and citric acid dissolves in a medium over a period of up to 20 seconds.
15. A granulated composition consisting of a salt encapsulated by an encapsulating composition that comprises at least one wax, wherein the granulated composition comprises:
between 60-70% salt;
between 7-10% urea;
between 7-10% sodium bicarbonate; and
between 7-10% citric acid; and
wherein the composition further comprises between 5-10% encapsulating composition.
