摘要:
A process for making a polysiloxane block copolymer which is built up from units of the formula [A] [B], in which A is a polymeric block built up from radically polymerisable monomer, and B is a polysiloxane block, the process comprising the steps of polymerising a radically polymerisable monomer in the presence of an atom transfer radical initiator to form an polymer which is end-functionalized with a leaving group capable of nucleophilic substitution by nucleophilic end-groups on a polysiloxane, and reacting the polymer with a polysiloxane having nucleophilic end-groups so that a polysiloxane block copolymer is formed via a nucleophilic displacement reaction between the end-groups on the polysiloxane and leaving groups on the polymer respectively. Also provided is a cosmetic and personal care composition, such as a hair styling composition, comprising the polysiloxane block copolymer as described above.
摘要:
A method for treating hair to impart thereto a conditioning benefit, the method involving applying to the hair an azlactone-functionalised copolymer consisting of vinyl azlactone and methacryloyl polydimethylsiloxane monomers; and allowing the copolymer to chemically bond through nucleophilic reaction of the azlactone onto the hair, the monomers of the copolymer being present in amounts sufficient to achieve both bonding to the hair and imparting conditioning properties.
摘要:
Certain polymeric polycarboxylic acids and salts containing hydroxyl or hydroxymethyl groups in close proximity to carboxyl groups, especially poly(2-hydroxymethylacrylic) acid and its salts, are effective sequestrants of divalent and polyvalent metal ions and are useful as builders in detergent compositions.
摘要:
The invention provides a hair treatment composition comprising a hair substantive polymer, the hair substantive polymer comprising a polymeric backbone bearing: (a) at least one side chain which is formed from a hair fibre targeting group which is covalently linked to the polymeric backbone, the hair fibre targeting group being a non-cationic species which is capable of specifically interacting with the protein surface of the hair fibre in a non-covalent interaction having a bond energy ranging from 0.5 to 3 Kcal/mol, when the composition is applied to hair; (b) preferably, at least one side chain which is different to side chain (a) and which comprises a hair benefit agent. Compositions of the invention provide for deposition and delivery of benefit agents to hair in a more efficient and targeted manner
摘要:
A personal care composition comprising: i) a micellar, shell cross-linked copolymer comprising polymeric units in its centre and cross-linked polymeric units on its exterior; the polymer units in its centre having a Tg of less than 110° C. and its homopolymeric units on its exterior shell having a Tg of greater than 90° C.; and ii) a cosmetically acceptable diluent or carrier.
摘要:
This invention relates to a fabric care composition comprising a thermoplastic elastomer and a textile compatible carrier, a method of treating fabric with such a composition as part of a laundering process and the use of a thermoplastic elastomer or a composition comprising a thermoplastic elastomer to improve the crease recovery properties and/or elasticity and/or shape retention of a fabric.
