  • Patent number: 5183845
    Abstract: A composition and process for protecting, preserving, and renewing surfaces, especially rubber and other natural and synthetic polymers, leather, and wood is disclosed. The emulsions of the present invention are applied to the polymer surfaces and by virtue of the composition, once applied, the emulsion will break causing the deposition of a uniform coating of treatment chemical. The treatment chemical is formulated to protect, renew and preserve the polymer surface being treated. The treatment composition comprises dimethylpolysiloxane fluid, an aminofunctional dimethylpolysiloxane, a wetting agent, an emulsifier pair, and an agent which causes the emulsion to break when applied to the surface. Each component contributes to the performance of the composition and facilitates the proper deposition of treatment chemical.

  • Patent number: 5175327
    Abstract: The invention discloses novel silanol ether compounds. Compounds of the invention are prepared by the ethoxylation and/or propoxylation of the hydroxyl group in the silanol compound. By virtue of their silanol backbone these compounds are highly lubricious and provide outstanding lubrication and hydrophobicity when applied to hair, skin and textile fibers. The incorporation of alkylene oxide into the backbone results in a self emulsifying product which is surprisingly effective in delivering silicone to the substrate being treated. The compounds of the present invention are prepared by reacting a silanol compound with ethylene oxide and/or propylene oxide in the presence of a suitable catalyst.

  • Patent number: 5093452
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a series of novel silicone phosphate organic amine salts. These compounds have one or more pendant phosphate group in the free acid form which is neutralized by a fatty amine group. The amine group will become protonated and a net positive charge will result. The phosphate will donate the proton and develop a net negative charge. This compound is more substantive and higher foaming than any of the components alone. These phosphated silicone salts by virtue of this unique salt formation is highly foaming, non irritating to eyes and skin and deposits on fiber surfaces and form effective surface modifying finishes. The compounds of the present invention are therefore very well suited to applications in the personal care market.

  • Patent number: 5091493
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a series of novel silicone phosphobetaines which are high foaming low irritation surface active agents that are substantive to fiber and hair. The compounds, because they contain a pendant ionizable phosphate group and a quatarnary amine compound are amphoterics that is they contain both a positive and negative charge in the same molecule. Since the compounds of the present invention are high molecular weight silicone polymers, they have a high degree of oxidative stability, even at elevated temperatures. In addition, these compounds are non volatile and nonirritating. These combination of properties makes these polymers ideally suited for use in personal care applications.
