- Example 1 This example has ultra mildness because the relative levels of Cocamidopropyl betaine and sodium laureth sulfate are close to one another. Mildness is optimized when these two surfactants are close to a one to one anionic to amphoteric ratio on a molar basis. These two surfactants have comparable molecular weights.
- Example 2 This example shows that mildness can be sustained even when raising surfactant levels of sodium laureth sulfate and sodium lauroyl sarcosinate. It is important to keep the relative ratio of cocamidopropyl betaine and sodium laureth sulfate close to one another (e.g., this ratio can range from 2: 1 to 1 : 1.5; preferably 1 :5: 1 to 1 : 1.5).
- Example 3 This example shows mildness being further enhanced by the further addi ⁇ tion of polymer.
- Polymer acts as a humectant, preventing moisture loss from the skin. It also reduces the penetration of surfactant into the stratum corneum.
- Comparative Example A A leading commerically available liquid hand soap.
- Example 4 shows that the product can have more sodium laureth sul ⁇ fate than cocamidopropyl betaine.
- Example 5 This example shows that the product can have more cocamidopropyl betaine than sodium laureth sulfate.
- Polyquaternium 10 0.05 0.05
- Example 6 This example shows increased the lather generation when Polyquaternium- 10 is in the presence of sodium lauroyl sarcosinate These two materials interact in such a way as to unexpectedly boost lather volumes The full volume potential is not reached when both of these materials are not present
- Example 7 This example shows the low lather generation when both Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate and Polyquaternium- 10 are not present
- Example 8 This example shows low lather generation when Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate is not present
- Example 9 This example shows low lather generation when Polyquaternium- 10 is not present
- Polyquaternium 10 0 1 — 0 1 —
- Citric Acid 0 25 0 25 0 25 0 25 0 25 0 25 0 25 0 25 0 25 0 25 0 25
- Example 10 This example shows lather generation can be increased by increasing the level of sodium lauroyl sarcosinate The presence of Polyquaternium 10 is needed to see an unexpected lather boost
- Example 1 1 This example shows higher levels of Polyquaternium 10
- Example 12 This table gives an example of a possible use for this product as an antibacterial.
- Antibacterial liquid cleansers made in accordance w'th this invention are ultra mild
