Abstract: Water-in-oil microemulsions containing triglyceride oil for personal care applications are described. The W/O type of microemulsions based on triglyceride oils such as soya oil and sunflower oil are suitable for skin cleansing shower oils. The microemulsions of the patent application allow the use of several mild surfactants, thereby obviating the use of aliphatic amine based anionic surfactants for personal cleansing. The microemulsion based on coconut oil serves like a ‘two-in-one’ formulation for prewash hair conditioning like a typical hair-oil and subsequently like a shampoo for cleansing the hair.

Abstract: N-Acyl sarcosines of Formula I, wherein, R?C7 alkyl and C10 alkenyl group with terminal double bond, are described as new antimicrobial preservatives for home and personal care products. Lipidated sarcosines of this patent application preserve creams, lotions, emulsions, solutions or suspensions types of formulations of personal care industry. These are used in: leave-on?? (cold cream, sunscreen) as well as: rinse-off?? (facewash, body wash, shampoo) formulations either alone or in combination with other antimicrobials.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a cold-processable antimicrobial composition in non-dusting solid form, free from toxic antimicrobial comprising, a) N-capryloyl glycine (Formula I), b) N-undecylenoyl glycine (Formula II), c) benzoic acid (Formula III) and d) sodium dehydroacetate (Formula IV) for use in personal care and home care products. The invention further discloses a process for preparation of the antimicrobial composition and ease of its incorporation in various personal and home products.

Abstract: The present invention discloses recyclable polymeric catalyst of Formula I, for chlorination of organic acids and alcohols using chlorinating agents such as carbonyl chloride, oxalyl chloride or thionyl chloride, wherein, ‘m’ on the pendent groups on polystyrene backbone can have values from 1 to 5 and R is the alkyl group ranging from C1 to C5.

Abstract: The invention relates to aqueous, high active, self-preserving composition of mild surfactants which are used to create transparent liquid formulations with pH similar to skin's pH. More specifically, the composition comprise of sodium/potassium acyl isethionate of Formula I and mono potassium acyl glutamate of Formula II with solids content of at least 45 w/w, for personal care formulation that are ultra-mild, with skin pH and transparent.
