Description

CAPILLARY COSMETIC COMPOSITION THAT PROVIDES GOOD RESISTANCE PROPERTIES AND THAT COMPRISES POLYURETHANS DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The invention has for its object a cosmetic composition comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium, at least one polyurethane (A) with particular characteristics. The invention also relates to a method of shaping or maintaining the hair with the aid of this composition, as well as its use for the formulation of hair cosmetic products, such as styling products such as lacquers, sprays or foams. , with a view to obtaining the maintenance or the conformation of the hairstyle. Among the hair products for the fixation of the most widespread hair on the cosmetics market, there can be mentioned spray compositions in aerosol or atomizer such as lacquers, sprays or foams, essentially constituted by a solution as much as possible. often alcoholic or hydroalcoholic and by a smoke-soluble polymer soluble in water or alcohol, in admixture with various cosmetic adjuvants. BEF: 138873 However, these hair formulations, such as foams, gels and, above all, sprays and aerosol lacquers designed to maintain the shape of the hairstyle, do not yet allow the hairstyle to successfully resist the different natural movements of life such as walking, head movements or gusts of wind. The polymers used for the formulation of these hair products are anionic, amphoteric or nonionic fumaric polymers, which lead to the formation of films having a more or less hard and brittle character. When the polymer is too brittle, the percentage of elongation at break measured on the film is low, i.e. generally lower than 2 i and the combing resistance is not ensured with time. To remedy this problem, these polymers have already been mixed with plasticizers and obtained more flexible and non-brittle coatings. However, these films are deformable and plastic, that is to say that after the deformation, they recover very little their initial shape. If the resistance, of the hairstyle is improved, it is not yet satisfactory since the shape of the hairstyle evolves with time.

More satisfactory results in terms of strength have been obtained with compositions comprising an association of smoke-forming polymers, such as for example a polyvinylcaprolactam polymer and an acrylic polymer. However, these compositions do not yet fully satisfy, inasmuch as the hair loses some of its natural cosmetic properties. In addition, it would be desirable to further increase the fixing power. Cosmetic compositions are therefore sought for the maintenance and / or fixation of the hairstyle which provide the hair, in addition to a durable fixation, good cosmetic properties, particularly good disentangling, softness and a pleasant appearance. Surprisingly and unexpectedly, the applicant has discovered that it was possible to remedy the technical problems mentioned above, using particular polymers. The subject of the invention is a cosmetic composition comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium, at least one fumaric polymer (A) selected in such a way that the material obtained by drying this polymer in aqueous or alcoholic medium, at room temperature and with a percentage of relative humidity of 50%, presents a mechanical profile defined by at least: (a) a percentage of elongation at break (e.) greater than or equal to 500%; (b) an instantaneous coating (Rx) comprised between 30 and 85%, (c) a coating (R300) in 300 seconds comprised between 50 and 100%, (d) a glass transition temperature less than 40 ° C. Another object of the present invention relates to a method of shaping or maintaining the hairstyle comprising the use of this composition. Another object of the present invention also relates to the use of this composition for the manufacture of hair cosmetic compositions, with a view to obtaining a maintenance or shaping of the hairstyle. The polyurethanes (A) particularly considered by the present invention are those distributed by Sanyo under the name PA Marin UA310 and PA Marin UA200, as well as the polyurethane .. marketed by Zeneca under the name Neorez R987.

The Pa Marin UA200 and Neorez R987 polyurethanes are polyurethane polyethers, and the PA Marin UA310 polyurethane is a polyurethane carbonate. In the sense of the present invention, it is meant by film obtained by drying at room temperature (22 + 2 ° C) and with a relative humidity percentage of 50 + 5%, the film obtained under these conditions from a mixture of 6% of active material (a) of polymer A with ethanol or with water, adapting the amount of mixture to obtain in a Teflon matrix, a film thickness of 500 + 50 μm. The drying is continued until the weight of the film does not evolve further, which represents approximately 12 days. Polymers A that are soluble or partially soluble in ethanol are tested in ethanol. The other polymers are tested in water in soluble or dispersed form. In the sense of the present invention, the percentage of elongation at break and the percentage of coating are evaluated with the means of the tests described below. To perform the tensile tests, the film is cut into small pieces of rectangular shape, with an extension of 80 mm and a width of 15 mm.

The tests were carried out in an apparatus marketed under the name Lloyd or marketed under the name Zwick under the same conditions of temperature and humidity as for drying, ie a temperature of 22 + 2 ° C and a relative humidity percentage of 50 +. 5%. The test pieces were stretched at the speed of 20 mm / min and the distance between the jaws was 50 + 1 mm. To determine the instantaneous coating (R, proceed as follows: - the test piece is stretched 150% (emax) that is 1.5 times its initial length (lo) - the tension is loosened by imposing a return speed equal to the tensile velocity, that is 20 mm / mn, and the elongation of the test piece is measured in percentage, after the return to zero load (e) The instantaneous coating in% (R is facilitated by the formula given below: Ri = ((eraax - e / ema?) X 100 To determine the coating in 300 seconds, the test piece, which has undergone the preceding operations, was maintained with zero tension for 300 seconds, and its percentage of elongation was measured in percentage (e 0o) - The coating in 300 seconds in% (R300) was given by the formula given below: R30G = ((emax - e3oo) / emax) X 100 The vitreous transition temperature was evaluated with the aid of the apparatus MDSC 299 commercialized by TA Instrument, in mode The glass transition temperature is preferably less than 10 ° C. In the compositions according to the invention, the fuminogenic polyurethane (s) (A) are preferably present at concentrations of between 0.05 and 201 by weight, more preferably between 0.1 and 15% by weight, and more preferably between 0.25 and 10% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition. Advantageously, the fumonous polyurethane (A) is chosen from the group comprising polyurethanes, polyurethanes, polyethers, polyurethanes, carbonates. The cosmetically acceptable medium is preferably constituted by water or one or more cosmetically acceptable solvents such as alcohols or mixtures of water-solvent (s), these solvents preferably being alcohols of Ci-C4. Among these alcohols, mention may be made of ethanol, isopropanol. Ethanol is particularly preferred.

The composition of the invention can also contain at least one additive selected from silicones, thickeners, anionic, nonionic, cationic or amphoteric surfactants, perfumes, preservatives, sunscreens, proteins, vitamins, provitamins. , non-anionic, nonionic, cationic or amphoteric polymers, mineral, vegetable or synthetic oils, ceramides, pseudoceramides, volatile silicones or not, linear or cyclic, modified or not and any other additive conventionally used in cosmetic compositions intended to be applied on the hair. Of course, the person skilled in the art will try to choose the possible compound (s) to be added to the composition according to the invention in such a way that the advantageous properties intrinsically related to the composition according to the invention are not substantially altered by the addition considered. These compositions can be packaged in various forms, particularly in sprays or in aerosol devices, in order to ensure application of the composition in vaporized form or in the form of a foam. Such forms of conditioning are indicated, for example, when it is desired to obtain a spray, a lacquer or a foam for fixing or treating the hair. The compositions according to the invention can also be in the form of creams, gels, emulsions, lotions or waxes. When the composition according to the invention is packaged in the form of an aerosol in order to obtain a lacquer or a foam, it comprises at least one propellant which can be chosen from volatile hydrocarbons such as n-butane, propane, isobutane , pentane, a chlorinated and / or fluorinated hydrocarbon and its mixtures. It is also possible to use carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, dimethyl ether (DME), nitrogen, compressed air as the propellant. It is also possible to use mixtures of propellants. Preferably, dimethyl ether is used. Advantageously, the propellant is present at a concentration comprised between 5 and 90% by weight relative to the total weight of the composition in the aerosol device and, more particularly, at a concentration comprised between 10 and 60%. The . Compositions according to the invention can be applied to dry or wet hair.

The invention will be illustrated more fully with the help of the following non-limiting example. All the percentages are percentages related in weight with relation to the total weight of the composition and m.a. means active matter.
