The present invention relates to the preparation of surface cleaning and protection compositions. A typical embodiment of this invention may be a lotion, a soap, a cream, an aerosol, a gel, a medicinal lotion, a fabric cleanser, a furniture polish, an automobile polish, and a cleanser for other solid surfaces. The use of polyhederal oligomeric silsequioxane (POSS) allows greater flexibility in delivering active agents to a surface as well as for surface protection from irritants. The current invention discloses compositions for a variety of applications ranging from skin care, home hygiene, health care, entertainment, and children training/education. The compositions may provide molecular-level benefits, form breathable protection layers on a surface (e.g. skin), provide UV protection, provide foaming effects or allow users (consumers) to know when or if the cleaning is complete. |
