Description

Use of carboxyl-containing polycondensates as auxiliaries in cos-metic preparations The present invention relates to the use of carboxyl-containing water-dispersible polycondensation products having glass transi-tion temperatures Tg > 20 C and acid numbers of from 30 to 160, obtainable by condensation of 10 A) from 0.3 to 15 mol% of at least one compound selected from the group consisting of 2,2-dimethylolpropanoic acid, 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid and its Cl-Cg-alkyl esters and acid chlorides, and 5-hydroxyisophthalic acids and their 5-acyl derivatives, and B) from 85 to 99.7 mol% of a mixture of B1) a saturated diol or a C2-C8-diamine or mixtures thereof, and B2) at least one compound from the group consisting of the monohydroxycarboxylic acids and their lactones, the di-carboxylic acids excluding the isophthalic acid deriva-tives mentioned under A), and the aminocarboxylic acids, as auxiliaries in cosmetic preparations, in particular in hair treatment compositions. The invention furthermore relates to hair treatment compositions containing polycondensation products as film-forming agents.
On account of the continuously growing demand for more environ-mentally tolerable feedstocks, the content of volatile organic constituents (volatile organic compounds - VOC) should also be kept as low as possible or reduced in cosmetic preparations such as hairspray. This means that the alcohol should increasingly be replaced by water as a solvent.

When using conventional hair setting polymers, however, this can cause difficulties, as at relatively high water contents viscos-40 ity and spray behavior of the hair setting compositions and thedrying of the polymer films are unsatisfactory.

US-A 4 300 580 discloses sodium sulfonate-containing linear poly-condensates which are suitable for use in hair treatment composi-tions. Such polycondensates, however, have a poor compatibility ~1 72670 with organic solvents and leave something to be desired with re-spect to washing-out ability.

It is furthermore disclosed in DE-AS 26 33 418 and DE-AS
25 06 461 to employ sodium sulfonate-containing branched polyes-ters in hair-treatment compositions. These compositions as well have unsatisfactory compatibility with organic solvents.

DE-OS 42 24 761 describes carboxyl-containing branched polycon-10 densates for use in cosmetic preparations, which are obtained on the basis of aromatic carboxylic acids having vicinal carboxylic acid groups. These polycondensates have some disadvantages with respect to stability to hydrolysis.

It is an object of the present invention to find polymers for use as film-forming agents in hair setting compositions which make possible increased proportions of water in the corresponding cos-metic preparations without causing a viscosity increase or adversely affecting other application properties such as the 20 spray behavior. After application to the hair, nonsticky, clear films having a good setting action and good washing-out ability should additionally be obtained.

We have found that this object is achieved by the use of the polycondensation products defined at the beginning, and cosmetic preparations containing these.

The polycondensation products are obtainable by condensation of the following components.
Components (A) employed are trifunctional compounds, selected from the group consisting of 2,2-dimethylolpropanoic acid, 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid, 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid mono- or trialkyl esters having Cl-C8-alkyl radicals, acid chlorides of l,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid and 5-acyloxyiso-phthalic acids, preferably 5-acetoxyisophthalic acid. Particu-larly preferred components A) are 2,2-dimethylolpropanoic acid and l,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid. If esters or acid chlorides of benzenedicarboxylic acid are used, these are transesterified 40 under the conditions of the condensation such that they are also trifunctional compounds.

The components A) are employed in amounts of from 0.3 to 15 mol%, preferably 1 to 12 mol%, based on the total amount of starting compounds.

21 726~U

Components B) employed are from 85 to 99.7, preferably from 88 to 99 mol% of a mixture of Bl) and B2), B1) preferably being employed in amounts from 10 to 49 mol% and B2) in amounts from 30 to 80 mol%, in each case based on the total amount of A) and B).
The ratio of acid groups employed to hydroxyl groups employed should preferably be from 0.95:1 to 1.2:1.

Possible components Bl) are one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of the saturated diols and the saturated di-10 primary C2-C8-diamines. Suitable diols are, for example, C2-C8-diols such as ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, 1,2- and 1,3-propanediol, 1,2-butanediol, 1,4-butanediol, neopentyl glycol, l,4-cyclohexyldimethylol or polyether diols having molecular weights up to 500 such as polyoxyethylene glycol, polyoxypropylene glycol or polytetrahydrofuran. Suitable diamines are, for example, ethylenediamine, l,4-butylenediamine or 1,6-hexamethylenediamine.

Possible components B2) are compounds selected from the group 20 consisting of the hydroxycarboxylic acids, dicarboxylic acids and aminocarboxylic acids. Suitable monohydroxycarboxylic acids are, for example, lactic acid, 2-hydroxyacetic acid or 3-hydroxypival-ic acid or lactones such as E-caprolactone. Suitable dicarboxylic acids, which differ from the 5-hydroxyisophthalic acid and its derivatives mentioned under A), are, for example, mononuclear aromatic dicarboxylic acids, for example phthalic acid, trimellitic acid, terephthalic acid or isophthalic acid, which, however, preferably do not carry any vicinal carboxylic acid groups, isophthalic acid being particularly preferred.
30 Furthermore, cycloalkane- or alkanedicarboxylic acids having 2 to 8 C atoms are suitable, for example adipic acid, succinic acid or 1,4-cyclohexyldicarboxylic acid. Possible components B2) are also aminocarboxylic acids having 2 to 8 C atoms or their lactams, for example ~-caprolactam.

Additionally, up to 3 mol%, based on the total number of moles of starting compounds, of a further trifunctional compound or up to 1 mol% of a diisocyanate can be added to increase the molecular weight. Suitable trifunctional compounds are saturated triols 40 such as glycerol or trimethylolpropane. Suitable diisocyanates are, for example, isophorone diisocyanate or hexamethylene diiso-cyanate.
The molar amounts of the starting components are preferably pro-portioned such that the resulting polycondensation products have acid numbers of from 30 to 160 mg of KOH/g of substance, prefer-ably from 40 to 100.

Preferred polycondensation products are polyesters according to the invention.

The polycondensation products can be prepared in a manner known 10 per se. Customarily, the condensation can be carried out as a melt condensation at temperatures in the range from 160 to 260 C
during a period of time of several hours (for example from 5 to 20 h) under a nitrogen atmosphere at pressures of from 0.2 to 2 bar, preferably under normal pressure, the resulting water of reaction being removed by distillation. Towards the end of the reaction, water of reaction still present in the product can be removed by distillation at from 1 to 100 mbar at from 210 to 230 C. It can also be recommended to add small amounts of custom-ary catalysts to the reaction mixture, for example tetraisopropyl 20 orthosilicate, amounts in the range from 10 to 100 ppm customar-ily being selected.

The water-dispersible or water-soluble polycondensation products thus obtained are colorless to honey-yellow products having rela-tively low viscosity and K values (measured at 1 % strength in N-methylpyrrolidone) according to Fikentscher, in the range from 20 to 40. The glass transition temperatures are > 20 C.

The polycondensation products are pre~erably used in partially or 30 completely neutralized form in aqueous dispersions, using, for example, 2-amino-2-methylpropanol as a neutralizing agent.

The sulfonate-free polycondensation products are used according to the invention as auxiliaries in cosmetic preparations such as skin creams, skin lotions or nail varnish and in particular in v-hair-cosmetic preparations, especially in hair setting composi-tions such as hairsprays, setting lotions or foam setting agents.

Owing to the good water compatibility purely aqueous preparations 40 can be prepared, the good resistance to hydrolysis being advanta-geous. The polycondensation products, however, are also readily compatible with organic solvents and organic propellants.

On account of the low viscosities, hair-cosmetic preparations with high solid contents can be prepared, so that less solvent is needed.

Besides the good environmental compatibility of the products, with which there are no residual monomer problems, they also, however, have good film-forming properties.

In the hair-cosmetic preparations according to the invention, the polycondensation products can be used both as film-forming agents on their own and as mixtures with conventional polymers suitable for such purposes, mixture ratios of polycondensates to conven-tional polymers of from 1:0.1 to 1:2 being recommended. Suitable 10 conventional hair setting polymers are, for example, anionic polymers such as acrylic acid or methacrylic acid homopolymers or copolymers, copolymers of acrylic acid and acrylamides and copo-lymers based on alkyl vinyl ethers and maleic acid monoalkyl es-ters, amphoteric polymers such as copolymers of octylacrylamide, acrylate and butylaminoethyl methacrylate and nonionic polymers such as vinylpyrrolidone homopolymers, vinylpyrrolidone/vinyl acetate copolymers and copolymers of vinylpyrrolidone, vinyl ace-tate and vinyl propionate.

20 Combinations of polycondensation products with polyvinylcaprolac-tam are particularly suitable.

The hair-cosmetic preparations according to the invention can contain the polycondensation products in amounts of from 0.1 to 25, preferably from 1 to 15, % by weight.

The preparations according to the invention can be used as purely aqueous preparations or in aqueous-alcoholic solution with etha-nol or isopropanol with or without propellant. A suitable propel-30 lant is, for example, dimethyl ether. The preparations accordingto the invention are preferably formulated with up to 80 % by weight of volatile organic solvents.

The hair-cosmetic preparations can furthermore contain customary auxiliaries such as surfactants, emulsifiers or fragrances.

Examples 1 to 10 General procedure for the preparation of the polycondensates A mixture of the starting compounds (for amounts see table) and 50 ppm of tetraisopropyl orthosilicate was heated under a nitro-gen atmosphere with stirring to from 160 to 180 C and kept at this temperature for 3 h, the resulting water of reaction being re-moved by distillation. The clear melt was heated to 200 C for a further 15 h, then the temperature was raised 15 C hourly until it was in the range 220-240 C. It was then additionally heated for 2 1 ~2tj~0 2 h at 20 mbar, residues of the water of reaction being removed.
After cooling, clear pale-yellow to yellow products were ob-tained.
