Abstract:
A hair fiber strengthening composition includes an aqueous vehicle containing as a hair strengthening additive a source of metal cations having a valence of 2 or 3 and anions derived from an oxidized carbohydrate, an inorganic acid and/or an organic acid, the composition having a pH of from about 6 to about 11.
Abstract:
A crosslinked polyorganosiloxane is obtained from the free radical-initiated addition polymerization of polymerizable polyorganosiloxane containing at least two free radical polymerizable groups.
Abstract:
An adhesive composition is shown and described herein. The composition comprises a silylated polyurethane, an epoxy functional compound, and an amine functional compound. The compositions are provided to control the molar ratio of amine active hydrogen (AH) to epoxy (E) groups. By controlling the amine active hydrogen to epoxy molar ratio, an adhesive with excellent adhesion and strength on a variety of types of substrates is provided.
Abstract:
This invention relates to aqueous compositions for hair treatment, comprising polyorganosiloxanes A) having di- and trihydroxy-substituted aromatic groups and at least one surfactant B) selected from cationic surfactants B1) and anionic surfactants B2) in a certain weight ratio of the surfactant B) to the polyorganosiloxane A), and said aqueous compositions having a certain pH. The invention further relates to hair treatment compositions, comprising said aqueous compositions and to hair treatment processes using said aqueous compositions or hair treatment compositions.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to oil-in-water emulsion-forming compositions having reduced whitening effect when applied on wet substrates. The oil-in-water emulsion compositions are suitable for use in personal care products, textile treatments, polishing products, gloss enhancements and water resistance treatments.
