Patent number: 5840292Abstract: A hair treatment composition is provided that includes a water-insoluble, dispersible polymeric resin having a viscosity of less than 2 centipoise at 25.degree. C. when dispersed at 10% in water and a water-soluble amphoteric polymer.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 1996Date of Patent: November 24, 1998Assignee: Chesebrough-Pond's USA Co., Division of Conopco, Inc.Inventors: G.

Patent number: 5723113Abstract: A hairspray composition is described that includes a nonionic polymer and an anionic polymer. The nonionic polymer is formed from monomers having at least one unneutralized carboxylic acid. The anionic polymer is identical to the nonionic one, except that all of the carboxylic acid groups are in salt form. Advantageously, the composition further includes an acrylic resin, most especially an amphoteric one. Best results are achieved when the acrylic resin is neutralized with a relatively small cation such as potassium and a second cation of a water soluble fatty amine. These compositions employ water as the carrier and dimethyl ether as propellant.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 1996Date of Patent: March 3, 1998Assignee: Chesebrough-Pond's USA Co., Division of Conopco, Inc.Inventors: Joseph Raymond Faryniarz, G.

Patent number: 5338540Abstract: This invention relates to improved hair waving and straightening compositions of matter. The novel compositions of matter of this invention comprise a sulfite and/or bisulfite reducing system, urea, a cationic polyquaternary resin of such a nature that in combination with the urea in the reducing system a hair waving and/or straightening effect equivalent to conventional thioglycolate systems is effectuated without the attendant unpleasant odors associated with the thioglycolate systems. In addition, the reducing system of this invention is less damaging to the hair and skin than the thioglycolate systems. The system of course may be used either with or without heat such as heat from hair dryers. In order to achieve the above-mentioned objective, the compositions of this invention are at a pH in the range of above 5.5 to about 8.5, preferably 6.5. Such hair waving and straightening compositions may contain any conventional additives employed in the known sulfite and/or bisulfite (e.g.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 1990Date of Patent: August 16, 1994Assignee: Conopco, Inc.Inventors: G.

Patent number: 5266308Abstract: A hair treatment composition is provided that includes a water-insoluble, dispersible polymeric resin having a viscosity of less than 2 centipoise at 25.degree. C. when dispersed at 10% in water; a water-soluble polymeric resin having a viscosity greater than 6 centipoise at 25.degree. C. when 10% is placed in water; and a water-soluble polymer of molecular weight greater than about 500,000. Illustrative of the water-insoluble resin is a diglycol/cyclohexanedimethanol/isophthalates/sulfoisophthalates polyester. Preferably the water-soluble polymeric resin is a copolymer of polyvinyl-pyrrolidone and vinyl acetate. The preferred water-soluble polymer is polyvinylpyrrolidone, especially a polymer having molecular weight of around 630,000.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 1991Date of Patent: November 30, 1993Assignee: Chesebrough-Pond's USA Co.Inventors: G.
