Abstract: The invention relates to a series of novel silicone lactylates useful as emulsifiers. This class of compounds are prepared by the reaction of a carboxy functional silicone with the hydroxyl group on lactic acid. The products provide unique surfactant properties, specifically emulsification properties for many oil phases.The compounds are useful for preparation of ultra mild products for use personal care applications for skin, hair care and related applications.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a group of lubricant additives that have improved oxidative stability, high viscosity and relatively lower cost and that comprise the reaction product of a complex oleate ester telomerized with vegetable oils containing at least one linoleyl moiety of the three groups in the triglyceride. The resulting product is a high molecular weight liquid telomerized complex ester triglyceride having a plurality of branch groups. These groups render the compounds outstanding, highly oxidatively stable lubricants.

Abstract: The present invention deals with the composition of matter and the utilization of certain novel guerbet based quat compounds. These materials are useful in personal care applications.

Abstract: The invention relates to a series of novel silicone based lactylates. This class of compounds provides unique emulsification properties as well as outstanding wet comb and conditioning properties when applied to hair. The compounds of the present invention are prepared by reacting a the carboxyl group on a silicone polymer with the hydroxyl group in lactic acid.

Abstract: The invention discloses novel alkoxylated salicylate esters of silicone compounds which contain an ester linkage, a polyoxyalkylene portion and a silicone polymer portion. Compounds of the invention are made by reacting (a) an alkoxylated carboxy silicone, and (b) salicylic acid to form an ester. Compounds of the invention by virtue of (i) the silicone group, (ii) the ester group and (iii) the ultra violet absorbing group salicylic, the compounds are effective durable ultra violet absorbers. The presence of the polyoxyalkylene portion of the molecule allows for the modification of the solubilities of the molecule in a variety of polar and non-polar solvents.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to antiperspirant compositions comprising an antiperspirant compound, like an astringent salt; a cyclomethicone, a silicone polymer wax derived from beeswax and a fatty alcohol. The antiperspirant compositions are viscous compositions that are highly stable and essentially non-whitening and non-staining to skin and clothing after topical application. These desirable properties are attained by the inclusion of the specific silicone compound derived from beeswax.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition, process for preparation and use of a novel emulsion composition in the personal care industry. The composition when applied to hair provides outstanding lubrication, and delivers amino acids or proteins to the hair fiber. This aides in the manageability of the hair and remediates damage from treatment processes like permanent waving, dying and relaxing of the hair as well as environmental effects upon the hair.

Abstract: The present invention deals with the composition of matter and the utilization of certain novel guerbet based betaine compounds. These materials are useful in personal care applications.

Abstract: The present invention deals with the composition of matter and the utilization of certain novel complex esters which are prepared by the reaction of a guerbet acid and multi hydroxy compound like pentaerythritol.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a class of compounds that are made by neutralizing the amino group in an amphoteric surfactant with the carboxyllic acid group in a silicone compound. The complex has (a) lower irritation, (b) better foaming properties and (c) improved substantivity to a variety of substrates.

Abstract: The present invention deals with the application of certain novel esters which are prepared by the reaction of a guerbet alcohol and meadowfoam fatty, methyl ester or triglyceride in personal care applications. These materials are useful as cosmetic ingredients where outstanding liquidity, resistance to oxidation, and minimal taste and odor variation are required. This combination of properties make these compounds excellent candidates as additives to personal care products like skin care oils and lipsticks.

Abstract: The present invention relates to certain reconstituted wax esters, prepared by the reaction of a silicone polymer and a natural high molecular wax ester selected from the group consisting of beeswax, candelillia, and carnauba wax. These materials are useful in preparation of cosmetic products where their ability to couple organic silicone and other components into a uniform mass is unsurpassed. One major area for the use of these materials is in lipsticks. In addition they are useful in antiperspirants and other formulations which contain both oils and silicones.

Abstract: The present invention deals with the composition of matter and the utilization of certain novel polyoxyalkylene glycol esters which are prepared by the reaction of a guerbet acid and a polyoxylalkylene glycol as emulsifiers.
