Description

COMPOSITIONS OF STAMPING SHAMPOO WITH IMPROVED DEPOSITION OF ESTIMIZING POLYMER FIELD OF THE INVENTION _ The present invention relates to styling shampoo compositions that provide improved performance in hair styling or styling. More particularly, the present invention relates to styling shampoo compositions containing a cationic deposition polymer and selected dispersing agents to improve styling performance.

BACKGROUND DS THE INVENTION __ Many hair shampoo compositions provide acceptable cleaning but provide few styling benefits or no benefits, for example, body, hair retention, stiffness. To obtain these benefits, separate products are usually used for cleaning and styling. - Recently, hair shampoo compositions have been developed that can provide cleaning and styling performance from a single product. Many of these products contain styling polymers in a compatible shampoo base. To prepare these products, the styling polymers can be dissolved in an organic solvent and then incorporated into the base of the shampoo. The organic solvent subsequently helps to disperse the styling polymer in the shampoo composition, and also helps to improve the dispersion of the styling polymer on the hair, so that the polymer hardens and forms a thin film on the surface of the hair strand. . The better dispersion of the styling polymer on the hair results in a better styling performance from the shampoo composition. Another method for further improving the deposition of the polymer from a shampoo involves the use of cationic deposition polymers. These cationic deposition polymers improve the deposition efficiency of styling polymers, which in turn also improve stylized performance. The improved deposition of the cationic polymers also allows --- the reduction of the amount of styling polymer formulated in the shampoo compositions, thus reducing the costs of raw materials. The cationic deposition polymers, however, cause problems of compatibility with other materials of the formulation, especially when they are used at high concentrations or at relatively high cationic charge densities. In addition, the quantities Excessive deposition polymers can give undesirable sensations of damp oily or sticky hair, and can cause the hair to dry to give a feeling of dirt and have less body, and less volume. It has now been found that these water insoluble styptic polymers when provided in volatile solvents can be more effective and potentially used at lower concentrations, when used in combination with the selected cationic dispersing agents. It has also been found that the selected cationic dispersion agents provide this deposition benefit only when used in combination with these cationic deposition polymers. It is considered that the selected cationic dispersing agents help to reduce the micelle size of surfactant in the shampoo composition, which further forces a larger amount of the volatile solvent to leave the micelles or prevent the initial solubilization of the volatile solvent within the the micelle so that it is more readily available to assist in depositing and dispersing the styling polymer on the hair. In addition, more volatile solvent for the styling polymer is being deposited with the styling polymer, resulting in a less viscous drop that disperses better.

This improves the character or morphology of the deposit of the styling polymer on the hair, while also allowing minimal concentrations of the cationic deposition polymer to be present in the composition. In view of the above, therefore, an object of the invention is to provide a styling shampoo composition with improved styling performance. Still another object of the present invention is to improve the dispersion efficiency of the styling polymer from a shampoo composition containing a cationic deposition polymer and further to provide improved dispersion efficiency using selected cationic agents in combination with an insoluble styling polymer. in water and a volatile solvent for the styling polymer.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is directed to shampoo compositions for styling hair comprising from about 5% to about 50% by weight of a surfactant selected from the group consisting of anionic, surfactant-surfactant or amphoteric surfactants having an united group which is anionic to the pH of the composition, and combinations thereof; from about 0.025% to about 3% by weight of a organic cationic polymer having a cationic charge density of between about 0.2 meq / gm to about 7 meq / gm and a molecular weight of about 5,000 to about 10 million, from about 0.1% to about 10% by weight of a styling polymer of the hair insolubile in water, from about 0.1% to about 10% by weight of a solvent having a boiling point of less than about 300 ° C and a solubility in water at 25 ° C, preferably less than about 0- 2% by weight and from about 0.05% to about 5% by weight of a cationic, non-polymeric dispersing agent, and from about 22% to about 94.3% by weight of water. It has been found that the shampoo composition of the present invention provides improved dispersion efficiency of the styling polymer on the hair, thus providing improved styling performance of the shampoo compositions. It has been found that the cationic dispersing agent, when used in combination with the cationic deposition polymer, water-insoluble styling polymer, water-insoluble volatile solvent and anionic surfactant, provides improved dispersion of the water-insoluble styling polymer on the hair to formulations comparable that do not contain the cationic compound. It is considered that more volatile solvent is deposited with the water-insoluble styling polymer on the hair, but only insofar as the solvent is available outside of the surfactant micelle during the shampooing and rinsing process. The cationic dispersion agent is considered to inhibit the solubilization of the volatile solvent towards the surfactant micelles, thus providing more volatile solvent away from the surfactant micelles to aid in the improved dispersion of the styling polymer on the hair. The improved dispersion of the polymer then results in improved styling performance.

The concentration of the cationic polymer in the shampoo composition ranges from about 0.025% to about 3%, preferably from about 0.05% to about 2%, more preferably from about 0.1% to about 1% by weight of the shampoo composition. The cationic polymer that is used in the shampoo composition of this invention contains cationic nitrogen-containing entities, for example, of cationic or quaternary ammonium protonated amino. The cationic protonated amines can be primary, secondary or tertiary (preferably, secondary or tertiary) depending on the particular species and the selected pH of the styling shampoo composition. The average molecular weight of the cationic polymer is between about 10 million and about 5,000, preferably at least about 100,000, more preferably at least about 200,000, but preferably not more than about 2 million, more preferably more than about 1.5 millions.

Another type of preferred cationic cellulose includes the polymeric quaternary ammonium salts of -hydroxyethyl cellulose which are reacted with lauryl dimethyl ammonium substituted epoxide, referred to in the industry (CTFA) as Polyquaternium 24. These materials are obtained from A-nerchol Corp. (Edison, NJ, USA) under the trade name Polymer LM-200. Other suitable cationic polymers include cationic guar gum derivatives, for example guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride, specific examples include the Jaguar series commercially available from Rhone-Poulenc Incorporated. Other suitable cationic polymers include cellulose ethers containing quaternary nitrogen, some examples of which are described in U.S. Patent No. 3,962,418, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.

The cationic polymers herein are either soluble in the shampoo composition or are preferably soluble in a complex coacervate phase in the shampoo composition, formed by the cationic polymer and the anionic detergent surfactant component described above. The complex coacervates of the cationic polymer can also be formed with other charged materials in the shampoo composition. The formation of the coacervate depends on a variety of criteria such as molecular weight, component concentration and proportion of ionic interacting components, ionic strength (including ionic strength modification, for example, with the addition of salts), charge density of the cationic and anionic components, pH and temperature. Coacervate systems and the effect of these parameters have been described, for example, in J. Caelles, et al., "Anionic and Cationic Compounds in Mixed Systems", Cosmetics & Toiletries, Vol. 106, April 1991, pp. 49-54, C. J. van Oss, "Coacervation, Complex-Coacervation and Flocculation", J. Dispersion Science and Technology, Vol. 9 (5,6), 1988-89, pp. 561-573, and DJ Burgess, "Practical Analysis of Complex Coacervate Systems", J. of Colloid and In terface Science, Vol. 140, Nó. 1, November 1990, pp 227, 238, which are incorporated herein by reference. It is considered to be particularly advantageous if the cationic polymer is present in the shampoo composition in the coacervate phase or forms a coacervate phase when the shampoo is applied or rinsed from the hair. Complex coacervates are believed to be deposited more easily on the hair. Therefore, in general, it is preferred that the cationic polymer exists in the shampoo composition as a coacervate phase or forms a coacervate phase during dilution. If it is not already a coacervate in the shampoo composition, the cationic polymer should preferably exist in a complex coacervate form in the shampoo composition when diluted in water.

Techniques for the analysis of complex coacervate formation are known in this field. For example, microscopic analysis of the shampoo composition, at any selected dilution stage, can be used to identify whether or not a coacervate phase was formed. This coacervate phase can be identified as an additional phase emulsified in the composition. He Use of dyes can help distinguish the coacervate phase from the other insoluble phases dispersed in the shampoo composition.

These styling polymers provide the shampoo composition of the present invention with hair styling performance to provide a thin polymer film on the hair, after application with the shampoo composition. The polymeric film deposited on the hair has adhesive and cohesive strength as will be understood by those skilled in the art. Many of these polymers are known in the art, and include water-insoluble organic polymers and water-insoluble, silicone-grafted polymers, all of which are suitable for use in the shampoo composition herein, so long as also have the required characteristics that are described below.

Solvent The shampoo composition of the present invention comprises a volatile solvent - for the solubilization of hair styling polymers that were described before. The solvent helps to disperse the hair styling polymer as water insoluble fluid particles through the shampoo composition, where the dispersed particles comprise the styling polymer and the volatile solvent. Suitable solvents for this purpose include hydrocarbons, ethers, esters, amines, alkyl alcohols, volatile silicone derivatives and combinations thereof, many examples of which are known in the art.

The hair styling agents should have an average particle diameter in the final shampoo product of between about 0.05 to about 100 microns, preferably from about 0.5 microns to about 25 microns. The particle size can be measured according to methods known in the art, including, for example Optical microscopy.

The number of silicon atoms of the cyclic silicones is preferably between about 3 and about 7, more preferably about 3 and about 5. The general formula of these silicones is: wherein R1 and R2 are independently selected from alkyl 0? to C8, aryl or alkylaryl and where n = 3-7.
