  • Publication number: 20100239516
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel class of polymeric compounds having specific quaternized amine based upon a dimer acid reacted with a combination of a monohydroxy functional amine and a specific di-hydroxy functional tertiary alkanolamine, to make an ester tertiary amine, which is a subsequent step is converted to a quaternary compound. Dimer acid is a C-36 diacid having a cyclic structure and reacting it with the two type of amine groups allow for the synthesis of a high molecular weight cationic compound which is extremely substantitive to human skin and are well tolerated by human tissue making them suitable for use preparation of barrier products for personal care applications. These materials are dimethylaminopropyl amine free, which is highly desirable in personal care applications.

  • Patent number: 7790813
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a series of crosslinked silicone polymers that by virtue of the nature of the dimol alcohol undecylenic acid ester based crosslinker, have unique solubility and properties. These include improved tolerance for oily materials and improved skin feel. These polymers find use in personal care applications like pigmented products. In the personal care arena, solid products that do not experience syneresis are important. Syneresis is a condition that exists in a solid product that causes a liquid that is incompatible to ooze out, which is cosmetically unacceptable.

  • Publication number: 20100144897
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a dry feeling silicone that not only provides a dry feel when applied to skin, but also has a low surface tension, provides spreadability and contains essentially no cyclic silicones and additionally and importantly cannot is not form to make cyclomethicone. The ability to make a product that (1) has the dry feel, (2) is cyclomethicone free, (3) is not capable of making cyclomethicone when exposed to catalyst and (4) is not flammable is a long felt need, unsatisfied need in the cosmetic industry.

  • Patent number: 7723459
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a class of polyesters that are lightly crosslinked polyesters made by reacting polysorbate units (linked by the reaction of their hydroxyl groups) to the carboxyl group of dimer acid. As will become clear, lightly crosslinked as used herein relates to reactions in which there is an excess of hydroxyl groups on a molar basis to carboxylic groups on the dimer acid. The polymers and a contribute softness, lubricity and antistatic properties when applied to hair, skin, textile fiber and paper.

  • Patent number: 7670594
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a series of compositions that are very effective hair and skin conditioners. These compositions are composed of a poloxomer ester and an alkyl dimethicone copolyol. The poloxomer ester has from 14 to 40 carbon atoms in the alkyl group, at least one polyoxypropylene group and between and at least 40% by weight polyoxyethylene group in the molecule. The inclusion of the alkyl group in the alkyl dimethicone copolyol improves wet comb and skin feel.
