  • Water-based olefin-graft polymer system for multifunctional cosmetic applications
    Patent number: 8865193
    Abstract: A polymer emulsion for use in a cosmetic composition includes an olefin copolymer; a copolymer of an acidic monomer to include acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or other unsaturated, carboxyl containing monomer; optionally, at least one stabilizing emulsifier; optionally, a resin selected from a group consisting of an acrylic resin and styrene-acrylic resin, said resin having an average molecular weight from about 500 to about 15,000 daltons; and, optionally, a polymer selected from a group consisting of oxidized polyethylene polymers and oxidized polypropylene polymers, said polymer modified with cationic end-groups such as tallow alkyl amines.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 14, 2008
    Date of Patent: October 21, 2014
    Assignee: Interpolymer Corporation

  • Nonaqueous hair styling composition and method of use
    Patent number: 6706674
    Abstract: Disclosed is a hair styling composition which includes a vinyl copolymer and a nonaqueous solvent. Another disclosed hair styling composition contains a vinyl copolymer, a nonaqueous solvent, a urethane copolymer, a polyester and optionally a second nonaqueous solvent. Film formers and other additives may be included in the composition. The compositions are applied to the hair. Heat may be used in connection with the application. A method of making the compositions by adding copolymers one at a time and stirring until clear mixtures are obtained after each addition is disclosed.
