Description

The The invention relates to an agent for the cleansing and care of skin and hair based on a special active ingredient combination, a procedure for cleansing and care of skin and hair as well the use of the agent for the personal hygiene.

cleaning supplies for skin and hair, such as liquid soaps, shampoos, shower baths, bubble baths, shower and wash gels available commercially are, must not only have good cleaning power, but should continue for the skin and mucous membranes well tolerated and even more often Do not use excessive defatting or dryness. Furthermore However, the consumer also assesses the performance characteristics the amount and the quality the foam forming at application, after care effect and the feeling of freshness.

In Modern skin and hair treatment products are usually tried to combine all of these requirements in one product. extensive However, studies have shown that, for example, shower rooms generally by the consumer either as a freshness-oriented product or as a caring product are assessed. At the freshness-oriented Products, the freshness experience is positively assessed, skin care aspects are, on the other hand, missed by the consumer. Supply on the other side the nourishing products feel the skin and the hair with care substances, but have the disadvantages criticized by the consumer of the lower ones Freshness effect and, where appropriate, the lower foaming power, mostly with the feeling associated with a poorer cleaning performance.

Completely surprising has now become a novel means of cleansing the skin and hair found that the consumer-relevant parameters care and freshness united in a unique and ideal way, without the Cleaning performance is lost.

Dicarboxylic acids of Formula (N-I) are known in the literature.

One Manufacturing process is for example the US Patent 3,753,968 refer to.

The dicarboxylic acids of the formula (N-I) for example, by reaction of polyunsaturated dicarboxylic acids with unsaturated Monocarboxylic acids be prepared in the form of a Diels-Alder cyclization. Usually one is called by a polyunsaturated fatty acid as Dicarboxylic acid go out. Preferably, the natural Fats and oils accessible Linoleic acid. As monocarboxylic acid component are in particular acrylic acid, but also e.g. methacrylic acid and crotonic acid prefers. Usually occur in reactions according to Diels-Alder isomer mixtures, at which one component in excess is present.
