Pre-moistened wipe with lotion to improve dispensing
A lotion suitable for use in a disposable wiping article is disclosed. The lotion can be used to wet pre-moistened wet wipes, and is particularly suited for use in pop-up dispensing systems of disposable wet wipes, such as baby wipes. The lotion provides for improved reliability of pop-up dispensing while maintaining adequate wet impression. The lotion is an aqueous solution comprising a surfactant selected from the group consisting of phosphate-quaternary amine compounds and non-ionic surfactants, and effective amounts of a second ingredient selected from the group consisting of non-cellulosic organic water soluble polymers and alkoxylated alcohols. Other ingredients such as preservatives and fragrances can also be included in the lotion.
1. A pop-up dispensing system for reliable single dispensing of discreet pre-moistened wipes in consecutive order, the system comprising:
(a) a container having an interior portion and an aperture for drawing through the pre-moistened wet wipes in consecutive order;
(b) a plurality of the pre-moistened wipes, the wipes being stacked, folded and interleaved in a substantially interfolded z-fold pattern in the interior portion of the container;
wherein the pre-moistened wipes are wetted with a lotion, the lotion being an aqueous solution comprising at least about 90% by weight water, a surfactant selected from the group consisting of phosphate-quaternary amine compounds and non-ionic surfactants, and effective amounts of a second ingredient selected from the group consisting of non-cellulosic organic water soluble polymers and alkoxylated alcohols and wherein each of the pre-moistened wipes has a leading edge panel having a length of from about 2 cm to about 7 cm, a central panel having a length of from about 3 cm to about 12 cm, and a trailing edge panel having a length of from about 2 cm to about 7 cm and wherein the phosphate-quaternary amine compound is selected from the group consisting of Coco Phosphatidyl PG-Dimonium Chloride, Cocamidopropyl Phosphatidyl PG-Dimonium Chloride, and Stearamidopropyl Phosphatidyl PG-Dimonium Chloride.
2. The pop-up dispensing system of claim 1 wherein the lotion comprises less than about 3 percent by weight of the phosphate-quaternary amine compound.
3. A pop-up dispensing system for reliable single dispensing of discreet pre-moistened wipes in consecutive order, the system comprising:
(a) a container having an interior portion and an aperture for drawing through the pre-moistened wet wipes in consecutive order;
(b) a plurality of the pre-moistened wipes, the wipes being stacked, folded and interleaved in a substantially interfolded z-fold pattern in the interior portion of the container;
wherein the pre-moistened wipes are wetted with a lotion, the lotion being an aqueous solution comprising at least about 90% by weight water, a surfactant selected from the group consisting of phosphate-quaternary amine compounds and non-ionic surfactants, and effective amounts of a second ingredient selected from the group consisting of non-cellulosic organic water soluble polymers and alkoxylated alcohols and wherein each of the pre-moistened wipes has a leading edge panel having a length of from about 2 cm to about 7 cm, a central panel having a length of from about 3 cm to about 12 cm, and a trailing edge panel having a length of form about 2 cm to about 7 cm and further comprising an effective amount of a fragrance and an effective amount of a fragrance solublizer.
4. A pop-up dispensing system for reliable single dispensing of discreet pre-moistened wipes in consecutive order, the system comprising:
