Abstract: An aqueous based drilling fluid that exhibits improved lubricity, containing a phospholipid lubricant component and methods of improving the lubricity of an aqueous based drilling fluids. The methods include improving the lubricity of an aqueous based drilling fluid composed of an aqueous base fluid, and a weighting agent, with the addition of an effective amount of a phospholipid to substantially reduce the coefficient of friction when compared to the fluid absent the phospholipids.

Abstract: The invention relates to a series of polyglycoside derivatives that contain water-soluble groups introduced into the molecule by reaction with the hydroxyl groups present in the starting polyglycoside molecule, with the chloro material. The preferred products have more than one water-soluble group per molecule and are made with mild reagents to avoid discoloration and mal odor. The most preferred products have between 2 and 3 functional groups per molecule.

Abstract: The present invention relates to personal care products based upon a novel series of polyglucoside quarternary compounds. These materials are surprisingly, extremely effective multi-functional surfactants used in shampoos and body wash products, providing the possibility of making a personal care product with only one surfactant. These unique products provide detergency, foam, conditioning, antimicrobial activity, wetting properties of formulations in a single molecule, and are derived from natural sugar compounds.

Abstract: The invention relates to a series low foaming capped non-ionic surfactants. These compounds by virtue of reacting the terminal hydroxyl group with methallyl chloride, have increased stability in alkali, lower high cloud points and can be reacted via free radical technology into polymer backbones, resulting in non-water blush surfactants.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a series of quaternary nitrogen compounds in which the four groups surrounding nitrogen are (a) one glyceryl portion, (b) two methyl groups and (c) a hydroxy ethyl group. The compound of the present invention is an outstanding moisturizer when applied to skin.

Abstract: The present invention deals with the composition, and application of novel phosphate polymers. The polymeric compounds are useful as emulsifying agents, softening, anti-tangle, and conditioning agents for use in personal care applications due to their outstanding mildness.

Abstract: The invention relates to a series of polyglycoside derivatives that have improved water-solubility by introducing into the molecule polyoxyalkylene groups like polyoxyethylene and polyoxypropylene. The compounds are very mild detergents and emulsifiers.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel compositions and, more particularly, to a class of compounds having specific quaternized amine based upon a guerbet amido amine linked to specific phosphate esters. Guerbet acids are a specific group of branched acids that have no unsaturation present in the group, but nonetheless are liquid, and are outstanding skin care emollients, providing great spreadability on the skin. In addition this material is not toxic to human skin and is well tolerated by human tissue making it suitable for use in the preparation products for personal care applications.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel compounds and, more particularly, to a class of compounds having specific quatenized amine based upon a castor amido amine linked to specific phosphate esters. Castor oil contains predominantly ricinoleic moiefies. This phospholipid is an excellent emulsifier, conditioner and provides foam in formulations. It is also substantitive to human skin and is well tolerated by human tissue making it suitable for use in personal care applications.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds and, more particularly, to a class of compounds having specific quaternized amine based upon a dimer acid amido amine linked to specific phosphate esters. Dimer acid is a C-36 diacid having a cyclic structure and two amine groups that allow for the synthesis of a high molecular weight material phospholipid composition 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.
