  • Patent number: 8277788
    Abstract: Disclosed is a quick dispersing hair conditioning composition comprising (a) an isostearamidopropyl ethyldimethylammonium salt or a dicocodimethylammonium salt; (b) one or more fatty alcohols; (c) dimethicone; and (d) water. The hair conditioning composition of the invention has one or more advantageous properties. For example, an embodiment of the invention has a dispersion rate such that when 1.5 mL of the composition is dispersed into 400 mL of water at about 35° C. to about 40° C., the dispersion has a transmittance at 420 nm that is less than about 70% of the water at the same temperature in less than about 120 seconds.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6566314
    Abstract: An aqueous foam producing personal cleansing composition is disclosed. The composition, which is normally clear and is essentially free of any amides of diethanolamine, comprises a cloud point depressing agent comprising ammonium chloride. The composition of the present invention is characterized by a low cloud point temperature such that the risk of forming an undesirable precipitate in the composition is reduced. Also disclosed is a method of reducing the cloud point temperature in a normally clear aqueous personal cleansing composition which is essentially free of amides of diethanolamine. The method comprises adding ammonium chloride to the composition.
