Patent number: 8747822Abstract: The present invention has as its objective a series of citrate polyesters that have based upon fatty alcohols reacted with citric acid, and crosslinked by water soluble diols, resulting in polymers with improved water solubility. These polymers are ideally suited to personal care applications due to their unique feel delivered from aqueous solution or emulsions.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2011Date of Patent: June 10, 2014Assignee: SurfaTech CorporationInventors: Kevin A. O'Lenick, Andrew J. O'Lenick, Anthony J. O'Lenick, Jr.

Patent number: 8623342Abstract: The present invention is directed to a series of polymeric citrate esters that has very unique rheology properties. These materials find applications as additives to formulations in personal care products where there is a desire to have a structured film and flow properties. These compounds by virtue of their unique structure provide outstanding skin feel and outstanding waterproof properties in cosmetic formulations most notable sunscreens.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2011Date of Patent: January 7, 2014Assignee: SurfaTech CorporationInventors: Kevin A. O'Lenick, Andrew J. O'Lenick, Anthony J. O'Lenick, Jr.

Patent number: 8377457Abstract: The present invention is directed to a series of polymeric glyceryl esters that have two different molecular weight ester chains, one solid and one liquid, which when combined into a single molecule make a polymer that is solid, and crosslinked by dimer acid. These products have very unique skin feel and water proofing properties. These materials find applications as additives to formulations in personal care products where there is a desire to have a structured film (provided by the solid fatty group) and flow properties, (provided by the liquid fatty group). These compounds by virtue of their unique structure provide outstanding skin feel.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2010Date of Patent: February 19, 2013Assignee: SurfaTech CorporationInventors: Kevin A. O'Lenick, Andrew J. O'Lenick, Anthony J. O'Lenick, Jr.

Patent number: 8367861Abstract: The present invention has as its objective a series of citrate polyesters that have based upon guerbet alcohols reacted with citric acid, and crosslinked by diols. These polymers have a very low viscosity when one considers the molecular weight, and are ideally suited to personal care applications due to their unique feel.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2012Date of Patent: February 5, 2013Assignee: SurfaTech CorporationInventors: Kevin A. O'Lenick, Andrew J. O'Lenick, Anthony J. O'Lenick, Jr.

Patent number: 8273844Abstract: The invention is directed to a kaolin that has the surface modified by reaction with specific silicone compounds. The reaction of these materials result in a kaolin that is (a) less dusty when handled, (b) more flowable, (c) has better dispersibility in oils and in emulsion, resulting in less whitening when applied to skin and improved waterproofing when applied to skin, (d) has better stability in emulsions when dispersed in oils because of the durability of the surface treatment.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2010Date of Patent: September 25, 2012Assignee: Siltech LLCInventors: Anthony J. O' Lenick, Jr., Kevin A. O' Lenick, Andrew J. O' Lenick

Patent number: 8273841Abstract: The present invention is directed to a series of polymeric citrate esters that have unique liquidity, and outstanding feel when applied to the skin. The polymers of the present invention are made by polymerizing citrate mono and di fatty esters with a hydroxypropyl functional silicone to provide a polymer with a very low surface tension and outstanding skin feel.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2010Date of Patent: September 25, 2012Assignee: Surfatech CorporationInventors: Kevin A. O'Lenick, Andrew J. O'Lenick, Anthony J. O'Lenick, Jr.

Publication number: 20120208775Abstract: The present invention is directed to a series of sorbitol esters that have two different molecular weight ester chains, one solid and one liquid, which when combined into a single molecule make a polymer that is solid, but has very unique flow properties. These materials find applications as additives to formulations in personal care products where there is a desire to have a structured film (provided by the solid fatty group) and flow properties, (provided by the liquid fatty group). These compounds by virtue of their unique structure provide outstanding skin feel.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 25, 2012Publication date: August 16, 2012Inventors: Kevin A. O'Lenick, Andrew J. O'Lenick, Anthony J. O'Lenick, JR.
