Definitions

• the present invention relates to the treatment of hair and, more particularly, the present invention is concerned withthe setting of living human hair.
• film-forming materials are used which are soluble in water or aqueous lower alcohols.
• the film which will be formed so as to at least partially and preferably completely cover individual hairs will be of sufficient, i.e., relatively high, resiliency. This is important because brittle films or portions thereof would be dislocated and removed during combing and would form insoluble deposits on brush and comb and also on the hair itself where on these deposits would no longer be in the shape of the desired, substantially continuous film.
• Hair setting agents which are applied to the moist hair prior to insertion of curlers or the like, and thus prior to drying and combing out, as well as hair setting agents which are sprayed or otherwise applied after combing and forming of the desired hairdo, should have the following properties:
• the film-forming agents used for setting hair consist essentially of one or the other of the following'materialsz. shellac, alginate, carragenate, gelatin, dextrine, polyvinyl pyrrolidone and copolymerizates thereof with polyvinyl acetate, dimethylhydantoinformaldehyde resin and polymer acrylic acid derivatives.
• Gelatin being a natural product, has many advantages as a hair'setting agent.
• the gelatin film is'too brittle and thus of little resistance against wear and tear such as combing. This disadvantage cannot be overcome by the addition of softening agents since the latter are not suificiently compatible with gelatin. h
• the present invention includes a hair treating agent consisting essentially of a carrier substance compatible with human hair, and having an effective amount, preferably between about 0.3% and 3%, of an urea cross-linked polypeptide derived from gelatin and having an average molecular weight of between about 20,000 and 60,000, preferably about 35,000, distributed therethrough.
• the present invention also provides a mixture adapted to be sprayed from a pressure-container provided with a spray nozzle, the-mixture comprising a hair treating agent consisting essentially of a carrier substance compatible with human hair and having an effective amount of a urea cross-linked polypeptide derived from gelatin distributed therethrough, and a liquefied gas having at atmospheric pressure a boiling point below ambient temperatul'e.
• a hair treating agent consisting essentially of a carrier substance compatible with human hair and having an effective amount of a urea cross-linked polypeptide derived from gelatin distributed therethrough, and a liquefied gas having at atmospheric pressure a boiling point below ambient temperatul'e.
• the present invention is also concerned with a method of setting hair which includes the step of applying to living human haira hair-treating agent consisting essentially of a carrier substance.compatiblewith human hair and having an effective amount of a urea cross-linked polypeptide derived from gelatin distributed therethrough.
• the present invention provides, in a method of producing a hair-treating agent adapted to set human hair, the steps of degrading gelatin so as to form polypeptides thereof, and reacting the polypeptides with a diisocyanate so'as to form urea cross-linked polypeptides having an average molecular weight of between about 20,000'and 60,000;
• modified gelatin For the sake of .brevity, the urea cross-linked polypeptides will be referred to herein as modified gelatin.
• the modified gelatin of the present invention may be incorporated .in hair-grooming preparations such .as creams, hair setting agents, hair lotions and the like.
• hair setting compositions incorporating the modified gelatin of the present invention are preferably applied by spraying from a pressure containerby means of a propellant gas, such as a conventional aerosol container.
• a propellant gas such as a conventional aerosol container.
• the solvent for the modified gelatin as well as the propellant gas must be compatible with the modified gelatin.
• treatingv agents of the present invention with other materials compatible therewith and having an independent favorable effect, such as materials which will make it easier to comb the hair, or Vitamins, lanolin, lanolin derivatives, perfumes and the like.
• Example I -Hair grooming cream G. Modified gelatin 7 2.00 Sodium alginate 1.50 Water -7 i 80.00 Diethylene glycol h 0.15 Perfume 0.30 Isopropanol or ethanol 17.05
• Example II -Hair treating agent G. Modified gelatin 2.00 Dimethyl phthalate 0.50 Perfume 0.30 Isopropanol or ethanol 39.50 Water 57.70

• Example V -Hair treating lotion G. Sodium panthothenate 0.20 Inositol Polyglycol 200 0.25 Modified gelatin 0.45 Ethanol 50.00 Perfume 0.70 Water 48.30
• Example Vl.- Prdacti0n of modified'gelatin 1 liter of a 5% aqueous solution of purified gelatin is adjusted to a pH of 6.9. This solution is heated for 5 /2 hours in a closed vessel within a steam pressure container to 120 C. The solution is cooled down to 90 C. and allowed to stand until room temperature is reached. The solution is then filtered and adjusted to a pH-value of,7.
• the pH-value of the solution is currently controlled and maintained at a value of 7, by adding diluted sodium lye. After 3 hours the reaction is complete. To remove the tetrahydrofurane, the solution is concentrated by vacuum distillation to half its volume, after addition of some drops of octyl alcohol to prevent foaming.
• modified gelatin can be used as described in the foregoing examples.
• further products of modified gelatin can be produced as described in the German Patent 1,118,792.
• the minimum molecular Weight of the polypeptides is 10,000, the maximum 15,000, while the preferred molecular weight is 12,000.
• the polypeptides are produced by thermic hydrolysis of the aqueous solution of purified gelatin within the temperature range of 60-l50 C.
• The-maximum and minimum weights of the urea crosslinked polypeptides are between 20,000 and 60,000.
• the number of the peptide chains in the cross-linked polypeptides is n, the number of the cross-linking diisocyanates is n-l.
• the cross-linking of the polypeptides is carried out by reaction of the aqueous solution of the polypeptides with a tetrahydrofurane solution of a di-v isocyanate at a neutral pH and room temperature for a period of several hours.
