FORM 2 THE PATENTS ACT, 1970 (39 of 1970) & THE PATENTS RULES, 2003 COMPLETE SPECIFICATION [See section 10, Rule 13] HIGH ALCOHOL CONTENT FOAMING COMPOSITIONS WITH SILICONE-BASED SURFACTANTS; DEB WORLDWIDE HEALTHCARE INC., A CORPORATION ORGANISED AND EXISTING UNDER THE LAWS OF CANADA, WHOSE ADDRESS IS 76, ADAMS BLVD., BRANTFORD, ONTARIO N3S 7V2, CANADA THE FOLLOWING SPECIFICATION PARTICULARLY DESCRIBES THE INVENTION AND THE MANNER IN WHICH IT IS TO BE PERFORMED. 1 CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED U.S. APPLICATIONS This patent application relates to, and claims the priority benefit from, United States Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 60/658,580 filed on March 7, 2005, in English, entitled HIGH ALCOHOL CONTENT FOAMING COMPOSITIONS WITH SILICONE-BASED SURFACTANTS. FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to compositions with high contents of lower alcohol (C1-4) that could be dispensed as a foam both under low pressure from unpressurized containers and from pressurized containers achieved with an aerosol packaging system. The compositions to be dispensed as foams contain a silicone-based surfactant and when mixed with air provide a stable alcohol foam which can be used for personal cleaning or for disinfecting purposes. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Ethanol and/or Isopropyl alcohol and/or n-propyl alcohol compositions with at least 60% percent v/v (approximately 52% by weight) are well known to be antibacterial, therefore widely accepted for disinfecting purposes. Nonetheless due to the inherent characteristics of alcohol, it is perceived that the higher the content the better the product and a solution with higher than 60% by volume alcohol content is more desirable. Alcohol disinfectant solutions are generally thickened in order to eliminate the waste and facilitate spreading the composition throughout the 2 desired area. It is also known that other than gelling agents one can use paraffin or waxes to achieve thickening of a solution with high alcohol concentration. Such a composition with lanolin added to reduce the melting point closer to body temperature is described in United States Patent No. 2,054,989. One of the disadvantages of gels and the above-mentioned type of thick alcohol-containing compositions is that if they do not leave a tacky feeling on the hands after one use (although some do), the effect builds up after repetitive use during the day, making it necessary to eventually wash off the thickeners before continuing the usage of an alcohol antiseptic solution. The present invention if formulated for the above-mentioned type of product does not leave such a feel, and does not need to be washed off after repeated use. Generally speaking a high alcohol content disinfectant solution disinfects but does not clean. In order to make them disinfect and clean, so much soap would need to be added to the solution that the skin would feel soapy and disagreeable resulting in a formulation that would have little commercial appeal. Nonetheless, a non-irritant skin disinfecting formulation with a high content of a lower alcohol for use as a skin-washing agent has been successfully achieved by combining emulsifiers, surfactants and skin emollients as described in United States Patent No. 5,629,006. Surfactants other than for cleaning purposes are also used for spreading an aqueous composition containing one or more active substances rapidly and evenly over a surface due to their wetting properties. The use of good wetting agents definitely improves the efficient use of active substances in different compositions as described in United States Patent No. 5,928,993. 3 Although a high alcohol content disinfectant solution has good disinfectant characteristics, it has a sharp smell and is generally perceived to cause drying of the skin, characteristics which can also be diminished to a desirable level in the present invention. A foam product with greater than 40% v/v alcohol, which is easy and safe to use, is desirable over conventional liquid, gel or ointment type composition products. The concentration of alcohol already poses a hazard in itself, and there are many applications in which the perceived risk may be diminished if it could be dispensed as a foam. A foam intended to be useful as a skin disinfecting agent must have a uniform consistency, spreadability, cleansing ability, and have a pleasant feel, i.e. have rapid breaking power when pressure is applied; all of which present a challenge for a high lower alcohol content composition. The description of an aqueous foaming skin disinfecting composition using 15% w/w alcohol as a co-solvent, which requires no pressurized container or added propellant to produce the foam, is described in United States Patent No. 3,962,150. The foam-forming agents utilized heretofore, have been incapable of forming stable foams when the liquid phase has high alcohol content without using other ingredients. Furthermore, lower alcohols have been considered to be defoamers rather than foam-promoting chemicals. According to Klausner, in United States Patent No. 3,131,153, if more than 64% alcohol is used non-homogeneous compositions are obtained. The compositions in the patent required propellant to foam and the foams produced were of limited stability. 4 Various examples of compositions with a high content of a lower alcohol that are dispensed as a foam have been described, although for the purpose of the present invention the concentrations of alcohol and the levels of other ingredients are not suitable. More importantly, the use of propellants and aerosol containers to generate the foam is not desirable. For example, the compositions described in United States Patent No. 5,906,808 disclose a product that uses an emulsifying wax NF, and a combination of stearyl and cetyl alcohol, or other wax combinations, which improve the foaming performance of the composition, in combination with cetyl lactate, to produce a 0.8% chlorhexidine gluconate alcohol product. United States Patent No. 5,167,950 issued to Lins discloses a foam product which requires a propellant and where no surfactant is added as a cleaning agent. The composition disclosed in this patent is based upon using an emulsifier system (fatty alcohol ROH 16-22 carbons) in combination with the use of a thickening agent (carbomer, klucel, etc.) to produce an antimicrobial aerosol mousse having a high alcohol content. The mousse includes alcohol, water, a polymeric gelling agent and a surfactant system comprising a C16-C22 alcohol, aerosol propellant and a non-ionic polyethoxylated surfactant. Despite the work done to date it has been shown that there is little specific knowledge on how foams react and are formed, and surprisingly formulations that might seem not foamable result in the best foam producing ones while other formulations which seemed to have been producing foam even while being prepared did not perform well at all in some non-aerosol 5 foam dispensers. The behaviour of aqueous foams is not the same as that of an alcohol foam. Silicone-based surfactants have been used in applications requiring lowering of the surface tension and increased wetting properties, especially in applications that require materials to be compatible with solvent systems other than water and non-reactive to other components in the compositions. Silicone surfactants are desirable since they can achieve relatively low surface tension levels with relatively low concentrations in the compositions of interest Commercial examples of the exploitation of the advantage of the low surface tension levels achieved using Silicone based surfactants are crop protection products, printing inks, paints, floor coatings, etc. The characteristics mentioned above make silicone surfactants a candidate for the intention of this patent. It would be very advantageous to have alcohol based disinfecting formulations containing silicone-based surfactants which may be dispensed as a foam under low pressure conditions and/and or through an aerosol packaging system. Further, it would be very advantageous and desirable to find a foaming agent that could be used in concentrations that would allow it to be used in products that can remain in the area on which they have been applied and do not need to be rinsed or wiped off due to small amounts of residue remaining after evaporation. Thus it would also be very advantageous to provide foams that do not leave an unpleasant sticky after-feel as most commercial alcohol gel products are known to, or which clog up the dispensing equipment used to dispense the foams. Silicone-based surfactants are more than desirable for the purpose aforementioned since they are 6 currently used as desirable cosmetic ingredients in creams, lotions, and other cosmetics due to their soft after-feel and properties. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides high alcohol content compositions, which contain a surfactant/cleaning agent as well as a disinfectant/cleaning/solvent/carrier that causes very little drying to the skin or the hands of the user and is able to be dispensed as a foam from both pressurized and non-pressurized systems dispensing systems.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Definitions The term "emollient" as used herein refers broadly to materials which are capable of maintaining or improving the moisture level, compliance, or appearance of the skin when used repeatedly. The term "emulsifier" as used herein refers to surfactants or other materials added in small quantities to a mixture of two miscible liquids for the 12 purpose of aiding in the formation and stabilization of an emulsion. The phrase "emulsifying ingredients" as used herein is synonymous with emulsifier defined above. The term "emulsion" as used herein refers to a colloidal dispersion of one liquid in another. The term "surfactant" as used herein is the widely employed contraction for "surface active agents" which is the descriptive generic term for materials that preferentially adsorb at interfaces as a result of the presence of both, lipophylic and lipophobic structural units, the adsorption generally resulting in the alteration of the surface or interfacial properties of the system. The term "silicone-based surfactant" as used herein refers to a surface active agent in which the lipophylic chain contains a silicone chain, also described as any organosilicon oxide polymer in which the structural unit is usually comprising: -R2Si-0)n-where R is a monovalent organic radical, and which enables the composition in which it is contained to clean, wet and foam. The phrase "foam stabilizer" as used herein refers to an additive that increases the amount or persistence of foam produced by a surfactant system. The term "disinfect" as used herein means to destroy or reduce harmful microorganisms. The phrase "physiologically acceptable" as used herein means a material that does not usually produce irritation or toxicity when applied to the skin and is acceptable by users to apply to human skin "Foam" as used herein means a liquid and a gas mixed to form a mass of small bubbles that has a structure that lasts for a variable length of time. 13 A bubble is a cell of gas surrounded by a film of liquid. The term "aerosol" as used herein means a package and delivery system, and the product delivered, in which a pressurized gas is used to force the product out for dispensing. The gas may or may not be dispensed with the product. An "aerosol foam" is a foam dispensed out of an aerosol package and delivery system as defined above. The phrase "low pressure" in the context of producing a foam as used herein means a pressure of around an atmosphere or less such as when dispensing the foam from an unpressurized conainer. Typically when foams are dispensed from aerosol containers the foam is considered to be being dispensed under high "pressure" conditions. The present invention provides foamable alcohol compositions which include silicone-based surfactants with high contents of lower alcohol (C1.4) able to be dispensed as a foam under low pressure conditions from unpressurized containers and through an aerosol packaging system. The present foamable compositions when mixed with air deliver a stable foam to provide an alcoholic liquid solution which can be used for personal cleaning or for disinfecting purposes and which breaks on pressure application such as when a user rubs their hands or when applied over a surface. All percentages provided herein are based on the total weight unless otherwise indicated. The alcohol used in the present invention is a lower hydrocarbon chain alcohol such as a C1-4 alcohol including methanol, ethanol, propanol and butanol. The preferred alcohol is chosen from ethanol, 2-propanol, or n-propanol, most preferably ethanol, well accepted by Health Care personnel as 14 an adequate disinfectant at the right percentages. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that if the alcohol used in the formulation is ethanol or a combination of ethanol with one or more of the other C1-4 alcohols the ethanol preferably will be properly denatured to meet the local regulations of the targeted markets, but for the purposes of this patent it will be referred just as ethanol without it being specific as to whether it has been denatured. The compositions may use a single alcohol or as mentioned a blend of two or more alcohols may comprise the alcohol content of the composition. In one embodiment the alcohol may be present in a range from about 40 % to about 90 % v/v. A significant and very surprising achievement of the present invention is that compositions suitable for disinfecting have been made containing greater than 40% v/v alcohol and a silicone-based surfactant able to be dispensed as a cosmetically appealing foam from both, low pressure conditions and through an aerosol packaging system. The use of a silicone-based surfactant is the key ingredient as the primary foaming agent in the compositions designed to foam. Silicone surfactants have various interesting properties such as leaving little residue, being able to function in harsh chemical and thermal environments; they have an unparalleled wetting power, characteristics that are in general better than those of traditional surfactants, they show better surface-active properties in organic solvents, and that have made them widely used for applications in coatings, oilfield, material finishes, cleaning, paints, pesticides application, etc. 15 Traditional surfactants have carbon chains as the hydrophobic portion of the molecule. The hydrophile that is added to the carbon chain will determine the solubility and the general class of surface active agents as anionic, cationic, non-ionic or amphoteric. The silicone-based surfactants suitable for the compositions disclosed herein may include, but are not limited to, phosphate esters, sulphates, carboxylates, Imidazole quats, Amino Quats, Alkyl Quats, Amino propionates, ethoxylates, glycerol esters, amine oxides, acetylenic alcohol derivatives, phosphates, carbohydrate derivatives, sulfonates, betaines, Isethionates, esters, polyamides, and hydrocarbon surfactants that have a silicone chain -(R2-Si-0)n- and are compatible with the other components being used for a particular formulation. From the different silicone surfactants commercially available, samples from different manufacturers and different chemical surfactant groups were evaluated. Particularly, the Silicone Polyethers, also known as dimethicone copolyols showed the best performance. Amongst them, samples of multi-pendant and linear-difunctional showed activity but the later was found to give superior foam properties. This is interesting as well as unexpected since in most water based applications if one of the multi-pendant or linear-difunctional silicone surfactatns produces foam in water based mixtures, the other does not perform as well. However this is in agreement with the observations that foaming alcohol compositions behave quite differently from foaming water-based compositions. While trying different surfactants, mixtures of two or more were evaluated to find out whether there was any synergy identifiable to optimize usage and foam performance. While some synergies were identified, it was 16 also found that particularly difunctional silicone surfactants Bis-PEG [10-20] Dimethicones were the best when used alone. The notation Bis-PEG-[10-20] means all the Bis-PEG compounds having from 10 to 20 repeating oxyethylene groups. This applies to all other constituents as well. Specifically Bis-PEG 12 dimethicone and/or Bis-PEG-20 dimethicone and/or Bis-PEG-17 dimethicone are preferred along with 3-(3-Hydroxypropyl)-heptamethyltrisiloxane, ethoxylated, acetate, a polyether-modified polysiloxane and a polysiloxane betaine, showed promising results but not as good as the dimethicone ones. In preferred embodiments of the compositions, the effective silicone-based surface active agent may be a physiologically acceptable Bis-PEG-[10-20] dimethicone , a 3-(3-Hydroxypropyl)-heptamethyltrisiloxane, ethoxylated, acetate, a Polyether-modified polysiloxane or a Polysiloxane betaine, or mixtures thereof from about 0.01% to about 10.0% weight percent of the total composition. It was surprisingly found that despite the characteristics of silicone-based surfactants, there is little or no information on their use to produce a foamable product with high alcohol content under either, low pressure conditions or through an aerosol packaging system. Furthermore, in order to obtain a high alcohol content product able to produce a foam even if no pressurized containers or propellants are used, surface tension values as low as possible are required so that the pressure required to produce such foam by hand pumps and mechanical means would be sufficient. 17 During the development of the present invention, it was unexpectedly found that a relatively stable quick breaking foam could be obtained when using just ethanol and the silicone-based surfactant with as high as 80%v/w while using traditional surfactants at higher percentage yielded results that could not be even slightly similar and no foam at all could be obtained. In order to achieve a commercially suitable formulation (one that lasts long enough for the purpose of use in disinfecting applications)., reducing the amount of silicone-based surfactant used while using the assistance of other ingredients such as secondary surfactants, emulsifiers, foam stabilizers, fragrances, and the like ingredients employed in cosmetics, aerosols, toiletries, personal care, etc. is one of the approaches that were followed. One of the commercial products obtained uses emulsifiers and polyethoxylated fatty acid surfactants disclosed in United States Patent Nos. 5,167,950 and 6,090,395 while other examples use a combination of different foam stabilizers to achieve a similar result. Examples of secondary surfactants that may be used in the present compositions include other silicone surfactants, fluorinated surfactants, alkylglucosides, a poly(ethoxylated and/or propoxylated)alcohol, a poly(ethoxylated and/or propoxylated)ester, a derivative of a poly(ethoxylated and/or propoxylated)alcohol, a derivative of a poly(ethoxylated and/or propoxylated)ester, an alkyl alcohol, an alkenyl alcohol, an ester of a polyhydric alcohol, an ether of a polyhydric alcohol, an ester of a polyalkoxylated derivative of a polyhydric alcohol, an ether of a polyalkoxylated derivative of a polyhydric alcohol, a sorbitan fatty acid ester, a polyalkoxylated derivative of a sorbitan fatty acid ester, a betaine, a 18 sulfobetaines, Imidazoline derivatives, aminoacid derivatives, lecithins, phosphatides, some amine oxides and sulfoxides and mixtures thereof, present in an amount between about 0.10 % to about 5% weight percent. A preferred betaine is cocamidopropyl betaine. A preferred alkylglucoside is cocoglucoside. A preferred fluorinated surfactant is DEA C[8-18] perfluoroalkylethyl phosphate; another preferred fluorinated surfactant is Ammonium C[6-16] perfluoroalkylethyl phosphate, Preferred polyethoxylated fatty alcohols are polyethoxylated stearyl alcohol (21 moles ethylene oxide) and polyethoxylated stearyl alcohol (2 moles ethylene oxide), and a combination of these two. The fluorosurfactant which can be included may be an amphoteric polytetrafluoroethylene acetoxypropyl betaine (CF3 CF2 (CF2 CF2)n CH2 CH2 (OAc)CH2N+(CH3)2 CH2COO-) where n = 2 to 4; an ethoxylated nonionic fluorosurfactant of the following structure: RfCH2CH20(CH2CH20)xH where Rf = F(CF2 CF2)y, x= 0 to about 15, and y = 1 to about 7; and an anionic phosphate fluorosurfactant of the following structure: (RfCH2CH20)x P(0)(ONH4)y where Rf = F(CF2 CF2)z, x= 1 or 2, y = 2 or 1, x + y = 3, and z = 1 to about 7 or mixtures thereof. The compositions may include an antimicrobial agent. The following antimicrobials are offered as non-limiting examples of suitable antimicrobials for use in the present invention and may include chlorhexidine salt, iodine, a complexed form of iodine, parachlorometaxylenol, triclosan, hexachlorophene, a phenol, behenyl alcohol, a surfactant having a long chain hydrophobic group and a quaternary group, hydrogen peroxide, silver, a silver salt, silver oxide, other quaternary ammonium salts and mixtures thereof. 19 A preferred antimicrobial agent in the present compositions is chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) present in an amount between about 0.10 % to about 4.0 % weight percent. Another preferred antimicrobial agent is didecyl dimethyl diamonium chloride in an amount between about 0.05% to 5% weight percent. Another preferred antimicrobial agent is Benzalkonium chloride in an amount between about 0.05% to 5% weight percent. Another preferred anitimicrobial is Behenyl alcohol between 0.05-15% weight percent. If the amount of ingredients employed is little enough not to leave a tacky feeling after the composition evaporates after single or multiple uses, and this is achieved while maintaining at least 60% v/v ethanol or n-propanol concentration or 70% v/v isopropanol, then the composition would be ideal for use as an alcohol hand sanitizer/disinfectant foamable composition. The addition of water to the alcohol produces a more stable foam while allowing to reduce the amount of silicone-based surfactant required to foam the product. For example, using 0.5 to 1.0% silicone-based surfactant with a 50 to 60% v/v alcohol water solution produces a stable foam that does not readily collapse and that produces a stable puff that does not fall even when inverted and does not collapse until pressure is applied (such as when rubbed in hands or on over a surface) to provide an alcoholic liquid solution, while levels of up to 5% are required if the percentage of alcohol used is greater than 65%w/w. The use of a mild non-irritant surfactant widely used in the cosmetic industry such as cocamidopropyl betaine or a fluorinated surfactant such as DEA C[8-18] perfluoroalkylethyl phosphate or Ammonium C[6-16] perfluoroalkylethyl phosphate as a secondary surfactant is more suitable to 20 prepare the foamable hydroalcoholic composition of the present invention depending on the silicone-based surfactant being used. In order to stabilize the foam, foam stabilizers, as well as emulsifying ingredients have been tried with good results in allowing the product to be dispensed as a foam even when no propellant and/or pressurized container systems are used. Examples of compatible foam stabilizers that can optionally be employed include lactic acid esters of monoglycerides, cationic emulsifiers, triquaternized stearic phospholipid complex, hydroxystearamide propyltriamine salts, lactic acid monoglycerides, food emulsifiers such as glyceryl monostearate, Behentrimonium chloride, Cetrimonium chloride, propylene glycol monostearate, glycols, sodium stearoyl lactylate, silicone wax, an encapsulated oil, Microcapsule Mineral Oil. A preferred foam stabilizer used in the present foamable compositions is cetyl betaine. Another preferred foam stabilizer is glycerine. Another preferred foam stabilizer is Cetrimonium chloride and also Behentrimonium chloride. Examples of moisturizers and/or emollients which may be used in the present formulations include lanolin, vinyl alcohol, polyvinyl pyrrolidone and polyols selected from the group consisting of glycerol, propylene glycol, glyceryl oleate and sorbitol, cocoglucoside or a fatty alcohol selected from the group consisting of cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, lauryl alcohol, myristyl alcohol and palmityl alcohol, cetyl alcohol, ceteareth 20, and combinations thereof, present in an amount up to about 5%. The compositions may include a lipid layer enhancer such as a mixture of alkylglucoside and glyceryl Oleate, 21 or PEG-200 Hydrogenated Glyceryl Palmiate, or Dihydroxypropyl PEG-5 Linoleammonium Chloride or PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate. The compositions are formulated to be dispensed as a foam from an unpressurized dispenser having a dispenser pump for mixing the composition with air and dispensing foam therefrom. Alternatively the composition may be packaged in an aerosol container and dispensed under high pressure conditions. The present invention is unique in that it can be dispensed as a foam from such manual low pressure dispensing systems as described, however, the composition can alternatively be dispensed under high pressure systems as well. The composition may include an aerosol propellant in an amount from about 3 to about 20 weight percent of the total composition for pressurized discharge of the foam. The aerosol propellant may include propane, carbon dioxide, butane, dichloro difluoro methane, dichloro tetra fluoro ethane, octafluorocyclo butane; 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane; 1,1,1,2,3,3,3 heptafluoropropane, and 1,1,1,3,3,3,-hexafluoropropane. When stored in a metal container with propellant, the formulation may include a corrosion inhibitor such as sorbic acid, benzoic acid, potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate, in an amount from about 0.1 to about 5 weight percent of the total composition. The composition may include an acid or a base to adjust a pH of the composition. When an acid is used to adjust the pH, the acid may be hydrochloric acid, citric acid and phosphoric acid, and when a base is used to adjust the pH the base is sodium sesquicarbonate. 22 The composition may further include constituents such as organic gums and colloids, lower alkanolamides of higher fatty acids, short chain diols and/or triols, fragrance, coloring matter, ultraviolet absorbers, solvents, suspending agents, buffers, conditioning agents, antioxidants, bactericides and medicinally active ingredients, and combinations thereof. The composition may also include a preservative in an amount from about 0.01 to about 5 % weight percent of the total composition. The inventors have very surprisingly discovered that it is possible to produce alcohol foams which include a combination of both the silicone surfactants disclosed herein and fluorosurfactants disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 7,199,090 issued on April 3, 2007 and PCT Publication WO 2005/030917 A1 with the resulting foam exhibiting an interesting synergy with respect to the foam quality. While both types of surfactants in the extremes of the concentrations of alcohol covered produce more and better foam when the alcohol concentration is closer to 40% and produce a lower quality foam that does not last in concentrations higher than 80% it was very interestingly found that the foam quality observed with fluorosurfactants is different from that obtained using silicone based surfactants. With the pumps used for the examples, compositions using fluorinated surfactants are as described as an aereated "quick" breaking foam disappearing within seconds depending on the amount of alcohol and percentage of surfactant used, while with the silicone based surfactants the foam has a distinctive different appearance, it appears to be more dense and sometimes looks more uniform giving the appearance to be "whiter" not 23 necessarily because there might seem to be more bubbles but because the bubbles last longer, they are more stable. The difference is better observed when comparing side-by-side samples containing the same percentage of alcohol, and while it is evident that when the foam is first dispensed it shows more volume and a "better" quality appearance if a fluorinated surfactant is used, this visual advantage is observed only during the first few seconds since the foam quite rapidly breaks down to a smaller volume to more resemble the foam obtained with the silicone-based surfactant. The most important difference appears to be how long the foam containing only the silicone-based surfactant lasts compared to the time the foam lasts with a foam containing only the fluorinated surfactant. It should also be noted that one of the main differences in using one surfactant or the other (fluorosurfactants versus silicone surfactants) is the fact that fluorinated surfactants can reduce the surface tension to lower levels than those achieved using silicone-based surfactants alone, therefore compositions with only silicone based surfactants generally need a higher percentage of the silicone based surfactants to achieve a similar result. A significant advantage to mixing both types of surfactants in the same composition is that the silicone based surfactant gives a longer lasting effect while the fluorinated surfactant has a better tolerance at higher levels of alcohol hence when mixed the combination provides an improvement in foam quality greater than obtaining using either one individually under some conditions. Combining the surfactants allows the achievement of the desired foaming effect without exceeding solubility limits of either surfactant while at 24 the same time taking advantage of the particular characteristics of the foam differences produced by each one. The combination of silicone-based surfactants and fluorinated surfactant is of increasing advantage as the alcohol concentration increases, which is desirable to improve the microbiological efficacy. The following non-limiting examples are set forth to show for the various preferred embodiments and are not in any way to limit the scope of the present invention. EXAMPLES Examples 1 through 12 were prepared to illustrate the ability to produce alcohol-based disinfecting formulations which can be dispensed as foams using different surfactants and a solution of water and 50% ethanol. Examples 13 through 16 illustrate increasing concentrations of a silicone-based surfactant to produce foam with 40% ethanol. Examples 17 through 32 show increasing concentrations of ethanol with different silicone-based surfactants to produce foam. Examples 33 through 36 illustrate increasing concentrations of a silicone-based surfactant to produce acceptable foam at 62% ethanol. Examples 37 through 52 illustrate the ability to produce foam using different surfactants and a solution of 70%v/v Isopropanol. All parts and percentages are expressed by weight unless otherwise indicated. Comparatively, it was also found that for instance, Cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB) alone even at 40% ethanol and at 3% CAPB, was unable to produce as good results as those with 60%v/v ethanol, and Silicone-based surfactants using much less percentage (less than 1.0%). Cocamidopropyl 25 betaine does not give any acceptable foam above that percentage of alcohol and the lower than 60% v/v alcohol content makes it inadequate for a sanitizing solution. Also the solution left an unacceptable feeling on the skin after the alcohol evaporated (i.e. a soapy sticky feeling) indicating high levels of surfactant. Advantageously, the afterfeel of the present compositions was not only not soapy but actually pleasant makes the present invention suitable for many different applications. The following examples were intended to evaluate the foaming ability of different groups of Silicon surfactants with different combinations of ethanol, n-propyl alcohol and Isopropyl alcohol. They were also designed to asses the effect in the after feel as well as in the foam quality of some emollients and humectants, lipids, and other cosmetic type desired ingredients to be used with a leave-on hand sanitizer product. Some ingredients with antibacterial properties were also added to again evaluate their effect on foam quality and after feel. Examples 53 to 293 have total alcohol contents from 61%w/w to 75%w/w. The best foam was achieved with only ethanol as the alcohol, with the next best being the combination Ethanol and n-propyl alcohol using up to 10% n-propyl alcohol. The worst foams were those obtained using only Isopropyl alcohol and/or n-propyl alcohol. Also interesting is the fact that the surfactant that works the best with just ethanol is not the same that works the best with the other 2 alcohols tried. More specifically it was found that the PEG-17-Dimethicone as well as the Bis-PEG/PPG 18/6 Dimethicone work better than the Bis-PEG 12 -Dimethicone with just n-propyl alcohol and/or Isopropyl alcohol. While combining different silicone surfactants if different 26 alcohols are used seems to show a synergy to boost the foam when the addition of another alcohol disrupts the foaming ability of a particular silicone surfactant in the end the preferred silicone for the combination of alcohols emollients and other ingredients lies amongst the Bis-PEG [10-20] Dimethicone silicone surfactants. Combinations of silicone surfactants with other surfactants were also tried; various experiments showed that although it was possible to find acceptable foam quality improvement when using other surfactants, the soapy after-feel was unacceptable for a leave-on product for many surfactants. However the compositions combining silicone surfactants with fluorosufactants mentioned above showed an improvement that very advantageously allows for the reduction in the percentage of silicone surfactant to optimize percentages in the formulation regarding cost and other efficacy desired outcomes. While some cosmetic ingredients like Cocoglucoside Glyceryl Oleate appear to deteriorate the foam quality when present in the composition, if the after-feel effect is beneficial increasing then the foam quality may be improved by increasing the percentage of surfactant present and/or adding a foam stabilizer to the composition to improve the foam quality. It was also interesting to find that while a higher percentage of silicone surfactant present in the composition has been observed to increase the quality of the foam, the increased amount of silicone surfactant present has to be considerable before an improvement is observed. For example, the foam quality achieved with 1% was not significantly better with 1.5% but was 27 considerably better with 2% and the foam quality using 3% or 4% was very similar while 5% was much better than just 3%. The quality of the dispensed foam can be dependant upon the characteristics of the pump mechanism used for dispensing the foam from a bottle. For instance the quality of the foam was better with the smaller shot size of 0.75 ml than the bigger shot size of 1.5 ml from a pump for the same size bottle. The shot size is the amount of liquid dispensed when the pump is activated. From the above examples it can be concluded that they are clearly denoting how the art of foaming alcohol is different form that of foaming water based composition in more than one aspect and that unexpected outcomes could arise depending on the combination of ingredients desired for the final formulation in combination with the type of foaming device/mechanism to use. Below are some more specific examples for compositions following a formulation to produce alcohol/silicone-surfactant hand/skin sanitizing foamable compositions ; more than one being a foamable disinfecting composition with only alcohol being the only disinfectant ingredient, while other foamable disinfecting compositions use an added antimicrobial such as Chlorhexidine Digluconate or Didecyl Dimethyl Diammonium Chloride, Benzalkonium Chloride, Behenyl alcohol, etc. EXAMPLE 294 Alcohol hand sanitizing foamable disinfecting composition 0.01- 5.0 % * silicone-based surfactant (primary surfactant) 0.01 - 1.0% cocoamidopropylbetaine (secondary surfactant) 0.05 - 1.0% cetyl betaine (foam stabilizing agent) 28 0.10 - 1.5% emulsifier fatty alcohol ROH 16-22 carbons or combination that works well in a final formulation containing 60-70% v/v ethanol Q.S. water • Preferably a Bis-PEG-[10-20] dimethicone, a 3-(3-Hydroxypropyl)- heptamethyltrisiloxane, ethoxylated, acetate , a Bis-PEG/PPG 18/6 Dimethicone, acetate, a Polyether-modified polysiloxane or a Polysiloxane betaine, or mixtures thereof.

When wax type ingredients are to be used, they can be incorporated by warming up to 40-45°C preferably to the water portion while mixing and then allowing it to cool down or they could be added in "cold", at room temperature to the alcohol before any other ingredient and mixed until completely incorporated before adding the rest of the ingredients according to the composition. Active ingredients may be pre-dissolved into the water first, a process that will be well known to anyone skilled in the art. If a specific formulation cannot be adjusted to give the desired quality of foam with the preferred percentages of the different constituents, the characteristics of the dispensing mechanism may be modified to improve foam quality, for example the type and characteristics of the foaming pump, such as changing the air/liquid ratio, screen sizes at the nozzle, to mention a few, can be adjusted in ways which will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The compositions described herein provide improved alcohol based disinfecting products over commercially available compositions with high concentrations of alcohol, as well as the fact they are able to foam without the use of propellants or pressurized containers, although it will be appreciated that using propellants may in some cases improve the quality of the resulting foam. Depending on the alcohol concentration and the application of the particular composition the foam produced can widely vary, being at the high end of a relatively fast breaking foam variety which is stable enough to be thoroughly spread onto the skin without undue waste or effort. 34 The present formulations may be first made as a concentrate with only some of the constituents which can be shipped and then constituted with the remaining constituents. For example, the concentrate can include a) the effective silicone-based surface active agent for wetting and foaming present in an amount of at least 0.01% weight percent of the total composition 0.01 to about 15.0 %, a foam stabilizing agent including at least from about 0.01 to about 10.0%, and any one of moisturizers, emollients and combinations thereof present in a range from about 0.05% to about 5.0%; and water. The composition concentrate can then be constituted as an alcohol disinfecting composition by adding a) an alcohol Ci^, or mixtures thereof, present in an amount between about 60 % v/v to about 80% v/v of the total composition; and b) water present in an amount to balance the total composition to 100% weight percent. Due to the nature of the base composition with respect to the alcohol concentration and the quality of the ingredients, an advantageous application for the present invention is as an alcohol skin/hand disinfectant composition for a foamable product, examples of which are described above. Nevertheless, the present invention lends itself to the preparation of a wide variety of products for disinfecting applications, and it is to be understood that other embodiments may be utilized and that changes may be made without departing from the scope of the invention. Consequently, it is intended that the claims be interpreted to cover such modifications and equivalents. To note a few, the following products may be produced using the alcohol/silicone-surfactants: medicated foams, sunscreen foams, hand cream foams, brush-less shaving cream foams, 35 shower or bath oil foams, dry hair shampoo foams, make-up remover foams, analgesic foam rubs, hair grooming foams and antiperspirants hair cleaning foam, antiperspirant foam, hair conditioner foams.
