Abstract: To provide an acrylic silicone graft copolymer capable of effectively exerting a function in a composition for external application containing various oily components such as a natural oil, a hydrocarbon oil, ester oil and a silicone oil, and a composition for external application containing the acrylic silicone graft copolymer. A composition for external application including an acrylic silicone graft copolymer, which contains 2 to 25 mass % of a constitutional unit represented by formula (I), 55 to 85 mass % of a constitutional unit represented by formula (II) and 2 to 20 mass % of a constitutional unit represented by formula (III). wherein R1 is an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms; R2 is an alkylene group having 2 to 10 carbon atoms; and n is an integer of 1 to 100.

Abstract: A lip cosmetic that preferably has smooth feeling of use, gives shine, has no limitation of the container that can be used, and that further allows even coloring with little color transfer. A lip cosmetic composition having an inner phase and an outer phase, wherein the inner phase includes: A) a low-viscosity oil agent that does not dissolve a solidifier, and the outer phase includes: B) the solidifier; C) a high-viscosity oil agent that dissolves the solidifier; D) a binder oil that dissolves the low-viscosity oil agent as component A at 90° C. but not at 25° C.; and E) a coloring material, and the total amount of components A, B, C, D and E contained in the lip cosmetic composition is 80 mass % or more.

Abstract: A flame-retardant fastening product (a molded article and a fabric product) which is made of a flame retardancy-imparting material or contains or/and is coated with the flame retardancy-imparting material, wherein the flame retardancy-imparting material comprises 100 parts by weight of a synthetic resin and 1 to 400 parts by weight of a flame-retardant containing an inorganic flame-retardant which exhibits such a volume change as expansion and/or foaming at the time of combustion, more preferably at least one member selected from the group consisting of hydrated metallic compounds and thermally expansible graphite, the flame-retardant being dispersed in the synthetic resin. Such flame-retardant products are useful as various molded articles and fabric products, such as surface fasteners, slide fasteners, and resin buttons.
