Abstract: A composition has a water dispersible esterified trimer acid (ETA) and a block co-polymer, especially a polyoxyalkylene block copolymer having EO and PO blocks. The composition may also have a polymeric surfactant antifoaming agent and an oil (especially a mineral oil or ester oil).
Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the manufacture of alkanolamide containing compositions, and more particularly to a process of reacting a fatty acid and diethanolamine (DEA) which result in the formation of low levels of undesirable by products, particularly of bis-hydroxyethyl piperazine (BHEP).

Abstract: The properties of 2-pyrrolidone-4-carboxylic substituted polysiloxanes can be dramatically altered by increasing the presence of the carboxylic-substituted pyrrolidone monomer of the polysiloxane, such that the amidopolysiloxane has an acid equivalent weight of about 3:00-3,000 daltons and a molecular weight average Mw of about 1,000-60,000 daltons resulting in enhanced detergent and water solubilities and the ability to form water-in-oil emulsions thereby providing usefulness across a broad range of formulations having enhanced electrolytic and silicone and/or hydrocarbon compatibility and cleansing properties.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions which are suitable for use as friction reducing agents, which can be particularly useful as release agents. The compositions comprise water and a surfactant capable of forming liquid crystals. The invention also relates to methods of production of such compositions, their use and substrates treated with such compositions.
