Description

HIGH LATHER STYLING SHAMPOOS
w TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to hair shannpoo compositions which have improved cleansing, lathering, and styling benefits. These shampoo compositions 1 o comprise an alkyl glyceryl ether sulfonate surfactant, optionally in combination with one or more additional surfactants. These compositions also comprise a hair styling polymer which is incorporated in a non-polar volatile solvent, which are together dispersed in the shampoo composition. Preferred embodiments of the present invention additionally comprise a hair conditioning agent. These preferred embodiments provide hair cleansing, styling, and conditioning benefits from a single product.
BACKGROUND OF THE IN'~IENTION
In washing, drying and styling one's hair, several end results are desired.
Firstly, and most obviously, one desires that the hair be thoroughly cleansed.
Most 2o desirable is a hair care process which maintains the look and feel of clean hair between hair washings.
Also, one desires a hair care process or product that provides hair styling benefits, especially hair style achievement and hold. Such style retention is generally accomplished by either of two routes: permanent chemical alteration or temporary alteration of hair style and shape. A pennauzent alteration, for example a chemical perm, involves the use of chemical agents to react with the hair in order to ' achieve the desired effect. This permanent chemical alteration of the hair, however, is not an object of the present invention. The styling beneft provided by the present invention is a temporary alteration. A temporary alteration is one which can be removed by water or by shampooing. In other words, it is a non-permanent alteration.
Temporary style alteration has generally been accomplished by means of the application of a separate composition or compositions after the shampooing process to provide style achievement and hold of hair. The materials used to provide these temporary styling benefits have generally been resins or gums that are usually applied in the ~ form of mousses, gels, lotions, or :>prays. This approach presents several significant drawbacks to the user. It requires a separate step following shampooing to apply the styling composition. In addition, many of these styling agents are aesthetically unappealing, leaving the hair feeling sticky or stiff after application of the styling composition, thereby defeating the purpose of the cleansing process. Moreover, many styling agents do not provide a long-lasting style benefit or provide a styling benefit that is too easily disturbed.
While the shampoo compositions that are disclosed in the prior art provide 5 cleansing and conditioning benefits, they do not provide effective styling benefits.
The benefiu derived from styling are highly desirable. However, styling agents, such as styling polymers, cannot be readily incorporated into conventional shampoos without suppressing the lathering and cleansing ability of the shampoos, or the ultimate deposition and performance of the styling polymer.
t o In the present invention, it has surprisingly been found that certain surfactant systems such as alkyl glyceryl ether sulfonates can provide high cleansing and lathering properties in a system also containing a styling polymer.
Furthermore, it has been found that when the styling polymer is dissolved in a non-polar volatile solvent that the styling polymer is readily dispersed in the shampoo composition and t s that the polymer is deposited onto the hair during the cleansing and rinsing process.
Previous developments in this area employed a styling polymer dissolved in a polar solvent, which was emulsified into a shampoo base. ,~ U.S. Patent No.
5,120,532, to Wells et al., issued June 9, 1993 Polar solvents, however, can inhibit the deposition of the styling polymer.
Zo These solvents tend to be too soluble in the shampoo base, and can carry the styling polymer into the water phase of the shampoo and away from the hair into the the rinse water during the rinsing process. In addition, many of the commonly used polar solvents have strong objectionable odors or may be hydrolytically unstable in an aqueous envoirnment. A non-polar solvent would be prefrnable in such is , instances, however, non-polar solvenu tend to interferes with the cleansing and lathering ability of the surfactant base of the shampoo. Typical high lathering su~rfacmnts such as alkyl sulfates can build lather in the presence of non-polar soiv~s, but have the disadvantage of reducing deposition so that no styling benefit is achieved. Alkyl glyceryl ether sulfonates ara also known to be good lathering 30 surfactants. ~ U.S. Patent No. 2,979,465, to Parran et al., issued April 11, 1961 It has, however, surprisingly been found that alkyl glyceryl ether sulfonate surfactants are able to produce good cleansing and lathering without interfering with the deposition of a hair styling polymer dissolved in a non-polar volatile solvent.
35 The present invention relates to hair shampoo compositions which comprise an alkyl glyceryl ether sulfonate surfactant, a hair styling polymer, a non-polar volatile solvent for dissolving the polymer, and water. Shampooing with these products provides both hair cleansing and styling benefits from a single product.
These compositions also have good lathering ability. It has also been discovered that when a hair conditioning agent is added to the aforementioned product, hair conditioning, cleansing, and styling benefits can be achieved from a single hair care s product. It has also been discovered that the styling shampoo compositions of the present invention provide product viscosities that maintain product phase stability and a consumer pleasing aesthetic appearance.
It is therefore an aspect of the present invention to pmvide hair shampoo compositions which provide both effective hair cleansing and good styling properties from a single composition.
It is also an aspect of the present invention to provide hair shampoo compositions which provide good lathering ability.
It is also an aspect of the present invention to formulate hair shampoo compositions which provide good style retention benefits without leaving the hair 15 with a stiff, sticky, or tacky feel.
It is also an aspect of the present invention to formulate hair shampoo compositions which also provide effective conditioning properties.
It is also an aspect of the present invention to provide an improved method for cleansing and styling the hair.
2o These and other aspects will become readily apparent from the detailed description which follows.
The present invention relates to a lathering, hair styling shampoo composition comprising:
25 (a) from about 2% to about 25%, by weight, of as alkyl glyceryl ether sulfonate surfactant;
(b) from about 0.1 % to about 10%, by weight, of a hair styling polymer;
(c) from about 0.1% to about 10%, by weight, of a non-polar volatile solvetrt for solubilizing said hair styling polyma, said non-polar volatile solvent 3o having a boiling point of less than or equal to about 300°C, and a solubility in water at 25°C of less than about 0.2% by weight; and (d) from about 50% to about 97.8% water;
wherein the weight ratio of said hair styling polymer to said non-polar volatile solvent is from about 10:90 to about 70:30.
35 The present invention also relates to methods for cleansing and styling the hair utilizing the compositions of the present invention. These methods comprise the steps of (i) wetting the hair with water, (ii) applying an effective amount of the shampoo composition to the hair, (iii) shampooing the hair with said composition, (iv) rinsing said composition from the hair, and (v) drying and styling the hair.

All percentages and ratios used herein are by weight of the total composition and all measurements made are at 25°C or room temperature, unless otherwise designated. All weight percentages, unless otherwise indicated, are on an actives weight basis. The invention hereof can comprise, consist of, or consist essentially of, the essential as well as the optional ingredients and additional components described herein.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The styling polymers and non-volatile solvents of the present invention can be used in a wide variety of hair styling products, including shampoos, hair sprays, hair lotions, hair tonics, hair mousses, and hair rinses.
The essential, as well as the optional, components of the present invention are described below.
Alkyl Glyceryl Ether Sulfonate Surfactant The compositions of the present invention comprise an alkyl glyceryl ether 2o sulfonate surfactant (also referred to herein as an "AGS" surfactant) as the cleansing and lathering ingredient. These compositions comprise from about 2% to about 25%, more preferably from about 3% to about 20%, and most preferably from about 4% to about 10% of the alkyl glyceryl ether sulfonate surfactant. These AGS
surfactants are derived from an alkyl glyceryl ether containing a sulfonate or , sulfonate salt group. These compounds generally can be described as an alkyl monoether of glycerol that also contains a sulfonate group.
These AGS surfactants can be described as generally conforming to the following structures:

WO 97/07782 PCTli7S96/I357~
S
ROCH~CHCH~ SOyX+
OH
HOCH2CHCH2 S03-X+
OR
. wherein R is a saturated or unsaturated straight chain, branched chain, or cyclic alkyl group having from about 10 to about 18 carbon atones, preferably from about 11 to about 16 carbon atoms, and most preferably from about 12 to about 14 carbon atoms, and X is a cation selected from the group consisting of ammonium; mono-alkylsubstituted ammonium; di-alkylsubstituted ammonium; tri-alkylsubstituted ammonium; tetra-alkylsubstituted ammonium; alkali metal; alkaline metal; and is mixtures thereof. More preferably, the alkyl radicals, R in the above formulas, are saturated and straight chain.
The distribution of alkyl chain lengths in the AGS surfactant has some effect on the character of the overall shampoo product. A satisfactory distribution can be achieved in a commercially practicable way by using fatty alcohols derived from 2o coconut oil and tallow. An equivalent distribution of alkyl chain lengths can be achieved using other starting materials. In the preparation of the coconut fatty alcohols used to provide the alkyl group of the AGS, preferably the middle cut of the coconut oil is taken. The higher boiling cut can be retained with the middle cut coconut oils if desired. In the preparation of the tallow fatty alcohols, a 25 hydrogenation step is included to insure that they are substantially saturated.
The preferred AGS compounds are those where the alkyl group is derived from at least about 50% from alcohols of about 10 to about 18 carbons, having mainly monoglyceryl radicals present, with less t7han about 30% of diglyceryl radicals present. The AGS used in the Examples described below contains about 30 15% of diglyceryl ether sulfonates, and is preferred because of the ease of manufacturing this material. The term "AGS" is intended to include monoglyceryl, diglyceryl, and traces of the higher glyceryl compounds. Small amounts, that is less than about 3% total, of triglyceryl ether sulfonates and tetraglyceryl ether sulfonates can be present. Also included are AGS's derived from glyceryl ethers having 35 branched or mixed branched and straight chain lengths that emulate the straight chain lengths.
The more preferred AGS surfactants for use in this invention are those which have a C12-14 s~aight chain length, and are crystalline in structure. The preferred cation, "X", in the AGS surfactants is sodium. An example of a commercially available AGS surfactant useful herein includes sodium cocoglyeeryl ether sulfonate, as listed in CTF A International Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary fifrh edition, 1993, page 660 .
s The AGS surfactants of this invention can be prepared using a variety of standard synthetic methods. The AGS surfactants can be preferably prepared by reacting fatty alcohols with a slight excess of epichlorohydtin, and then sulfonating the resulting chloroglyceryl ethers by means of the Streckerization Reaction.
Secondary reaction products, such as alkyl diglyceryl ether disulfonates;
to ROCH3-CH-CH3-S03-X+
O
t s CH;-CHOH-CH3~S03-X+
are formed in addition to the alkyl monoglyceryl ether sulfonate which is the primary product Additional isomers of the diglyceryl compound are also formed and can be monosulfonated or disulfonated. For the pof this invention, the sodium alkyl glyceryl ether sulfonate should contain less than about 30% of the Zo diglycerol ether product, and preferably less than about 25%. The balance is substantially monoglyceryl ether sulfonate. Generally, it is aot desirable to reduce the alkyi diglyceryl ether content below about 5% for economic reasons.

Hair Stvlina Polvma The shampoo compositions of the present invention comprise a hair styling polymer. It is this component that provides the hair styling benefits to the user. The compositions of the present invention comprise from about 0.l% to about 10%, 3s more preferably from about 0.3% to about 7%, and most ptrferably from about 0.5%
to about 5% of the styling polymer.
A wide variety of hair styling polymers are known for use as styling agents.
Many homopolymers, copolymers, and polymers combining three or more different monomer uniu are known in the an. Examples of such comple~c polymer systems are found in U.S. Patent ~,120.~31. to Wells et al., issued June 9. 1992; U.S.
Patent x,120,532, to Wells et al., issued June 9, 1992; U.S. Patent 5,104.642, to Wells et al., issued April 14, 1992; U.S. Patent 4.272,511, to Papantoniou et al..
issued June 9, 1981; and U.S. Patent 4,196,190, to Gehman et al., issued April 1. 1980 The polymers used herein are hydrophobic, water insoluble polymers. These polymers contain monomer units derived from polymerizable hydrophobic monomers. The term "hydrophobic monomer" means a monomer, that upon polymerization with like monomers, forms a water-insoluble homopolymer. The polymers can contain other monomer units which are not hydrophobic, however the polymer must remain water-insoluble as defined above.
The term "water-insoluble" polymer or homopolymer means a polymer that has a solubility in water at 25°C of about 0.2% or less, calculated on a water plus t5 polymer weight basis. "Solubility" for purposes hereof corresponds to the.maximtua concentration of polymer that can dissolve in water to form a solution that is substantially clear to the naked eye, as is well understood to those skilled in the art.
The hair styling polymer preferably has a glass transition temperance, Tg, i.e., the temperature at which the polymer changes from a brittle vitreous state to a Zo plastic state, of at least about -20°C, preferably between about 0°C and about 80°C, and most preferably between about 20°C and about 60°C. Tg can be determined by differential scanning calorimetiy, a method well known to one skilled in the art.
The hair styling polymer of the present invention have a weight average molecular weight of at least about 10,000. The molecular weight will generally be Zs , less than about 5,000,000, although higher molecular weights are not to be excluded. Preferably, the weight average molecular weight will be from about 30,000 to about 5,000,000, more preferably at least about 50,000, even more preferably at least about 75,000. T'he weight average molecular weight is preferably less than about 200,000, more preferably less than about 150,000. Weight average 3o molecular weight, for piuposa hereof, can be measured by methods known in the art suitable for de,Kermining the molecular weight of the sample to be analyzed, for example size exclusion chromatography utilizing column pore sizes of 103, 105, and 106 angstroms, or other equivalent methods.
Suitable hydrophobic monomers include acrylic or methacrylic acid esters of 3s Cl-Clg alcohols, such as methanol. ethanol. 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, 2 methyl-1-propanol, 1-pentaaol, 2-pentanol, 3-pentanol, 2-methyl~1-butanol, 1 methyl-1-butanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 1-methyl-1-pentanol, 2-methyl-1-pentanol, 3 methyl-1-pentanol, t-butanol, cyclohexanol, neodecanol, 2-ethyl-1-butanol, 3-heptanol, benzyl alcohol, 2-octanol, 6-methyl-1-heptanol, 2-ethyl-1-hexanol, 3,5-dimethyl-1-hexanol, 3,5,5-trimethyl-1-hexanol, 1-decanol, and the like, the alcohols having from about 1-18 carbon atoms with the average number of carbon atoms being from about 4-12; vinyl acetate; vinyl chloride; vinylidene chloride;
vinyl propionate; butadiene; cyclohexadiene; ethylene; propylene; vinyl toluene; and methoxy ethyl methacrylate. The polymers hereof can be homopolymers of such hydrophobic monomers or can be co-, ter-, and other higher polymers of hydrophobic monomers.
to Preferred monomers include n-butyl methacrylate, isobutyl methacrylate, 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate, methyl methacrylate, t-butylacrylate, t-butylmethyacrylate, and mixtures thereof. Especially preferred are t-butylacrylate, t-butylmethacrylate, and 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate.
The polymers hereof can be made by conventional polymerization techniques well known in the art including, for example, free radical polymerization.
Preferred examples of polymers useful in the present invention include the following: t-butyl acrylate/2-ethylhexyl acrylate copolymers having a weight/weight ratio of monomers of about 95/5, about 90/10, about 80/20, about 70/30, about 60/40, and about 50/50; t-butyl methacrylate/2-ethylhexyl acrylate 2o copolymers having a weight/weight ratio of monomers of about 95/5, about 90/10, about 80/20, about 70/30, about 60/40, and about 50/50; t-butyl methacrylate/2-ethylhexyl methacrylate copolymers having a weight/weight ratio of monomers of about 95/5, about 90/10, about 80/20, about 70/30, about 60140, and about 50/50; t-butyl ethacrylate/2-ethylhexyl methacrylate copolymers having a weight/weight , ratio of monomers of about 95/5, about 90/10, about 80/20, about 70/30, about 60/40, and about 50/50; and mixtures thereof.

and mixtures thereof.
Non-Polar Volatile Solvent The compositions of the present invention also comprise a non-polar volatile solvent or diluent for the styling polymer. The solvent is useful for diluting and solubilizing the polymer so that it can be dispersed as fluid particles in the shampoo composition. The amount of solvent to be used in the present shampoo W O 97107782 PCaYilS96/I3574 compositions is an amount sufficient to solubilize th.e polymer and disperse it as a separate fluid phase in the shampoo composition. The compositions of the present invention comprise from about 0.10% to about 10%, preferably from about 0.5%
to about 8%, and most preferably from about 1 % to about 6% by weight of the polymer s solvent. At levels below about 0.1 % solvent, the polymer generally cannot be sufficiently diluted; while at levels above about 10% solvent, the shampoo's cleansing and lathering characteristics can be negatively affected. The weighdweight ratio of polymer to solvent in the present composition is from about 10:90 to about 70:30, preferably from about 30:70 to about 60:40.
to Without being limited by theory, the solvent: also aids in delivering style achievement by plasticising the polymer deposited on the hair, thereby making it more flexible and adhesive during the hair drying and. styling process.
Furthermore, the solvent should have a low solubility in wager. Most preferred are the hydrocarbons which have a solubility in water of less than about 0.5% by weight, 15 preferably less than 0.3% by weight, and most preferably less than 0.2% by weight.
The particular polymer chosen for use in the present shampoo compositions must be soluble in the particular solvent utilized, thereby allowing the dispersion of the polymer and solvent mixture as a dispersed fluid phase in the shampoo composition.
Additionally, the solvents must not interact with the polymer styling agent in 2o such a way that would substantially reduce the ability of the polymer to provide styling benefits to the hair under ordinary use situa~gions. The solvents must, of course, be of sufficiently high purity and sufficiently low toxicity to render them suitable for administration to human hair.
The polymer solvent must also be volatile. U~aon deposition of the polymer 25 , and solvent mixture onto the hair, the solvent is volatilized leaving only the styling polymer on the hair, thus providing the maximum styling benefits. Generally, the polymer solvents of the present invention have a boiling point of less than or equal to- about 300°C, more preferably from about 90°C, to about 260°C, and most preferably from about 100°C to about 200°C.
30 The volatile solvents useful in the present compositions can be hydrocarbons, ethers, or mixtures thereof. Most preferred are the hydrocarbons, especially the C 10-C 16 branched chain hydrocarbons. The most preferred solvents for use herein are isohexadecane, isododecane, 2,5-d.imethyl decane, and mixtures thereof.
35 The hydrocarbons may be either straight or branched chain and may contain from about 8 to about 18 carbon atoms, preferably fro~rn about 10 to about 16 carbon atoms. Saturated hydrocarbons are preferred, although it is not necessarily intended to exclude unsaturated hydrocarbons. Examples of suitable straight chain hydrocarbons are decane, dodecane, decene, tridecene, and mixtures thereof.
Suitable branched chain hydrocarbons include isoparaffins of the above chain lengths. Isoparaffins are commercially available from Exxon Chemical Co.
5 Examples include IsoparTM H and K (C 11-C 12 isoparaffins), and IsoparTM L
(C 11-C 13 isoparaffins). Other suitable branched chain hydrocarbons are isododecane and isohexadecane. These solvents are commercially available from Preperse, Inc.
(South Plainfiled, NJ, USA) as PermethylTM 99A and lOIA, respectively. Useful ethers include di(CS-C7) alkyl ethers and diethers, especially the di(CS-C,6) alkyl 1 o ethers such as isoamyl ether, dipentyl ether and dihexyl ether.
The most preferred volatile solvents hereof are the hydrocarbons.
Hair Styling Agent The mixture of hair styling polymer and non-polar volatile solvent used in the present compositions is also referred to herein as the styling agent. The hair styling agent of the present invention comprises a mixture of a water-insoluble, hydrophobic hair styling polymer and a water-insoluble, non-polar volatile diluent.
The hair styling agent generally should have a hair styling polymer to volatile solvent weight ratio of from about 10:90 to about 70:30, preferably from about 20:80 to about 65:35, and more preferably from about 30:70 to about 60:40. The hair styling polymer is admixed with the non-polar volatile solvent, preferably in a weight ratio of from about 10:90 to about 70:30, more preferably from about 20:80 to about 65:35, and most preferably from about 30:70 to about 60:40. If the ratio of polymer to solvent is too low, the lathering performance of the shampoo composition is negatively affected. If the ratio of polymer to solvent is too high, the , composition becomes too viscous and causes difficulty in the dispersion of the styling polymer. The hair styling agents should have an average particle diameter in the final shampoo product of from about 0.1 to about 100 microns, preferably from about 0.5 micron to about 25 microns. Particle size can be measured according to methods known in the art, including, for example optical microscopy.

It should be recognized that care must be taken in determining the level of these WO 97107782 PC~'1US96/13574~

surfactant materials used so as not to interfere with the deposition and performance characteristics of the styling polymer. Also, care must be taken to select the additional surfactant and its level, such that the mildness properties of the compositions are not compromised.
Among the nonionic surfactants that are usefill herein are those that can be broadly defined as condensation products of long chain alcohols, e.g. C8-30 alcohols, with sugar or starch polymers, i.e., glycosides. These compounds can be represented by the formula (S)n-O-R wherein S is a sugar moiety such as glucose, fivctose, mannose, and galactose; n is an integer of from about 1 to about 1000, and 1o R is a C8-30 alkyl group. Examples of long chain ~alcohols from which the alkyl group cari be derived include decyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, lauryl alcohol, myristyl alcohol, oleyl alcohol, and the like. Preferred examples of these surfactants include those wherein S is a glucose moiety, R is a C8-20 alkyl group, and n is an integer of from' about 1 to about 9. Commercially avaulable examples of these surfactants include decyl polyglucoside (available as A.PG 325 CS from Henkel) and lauryl polyglucoside (available as APG 600CS and 625CS from Henkel).
Other useful nonionic surfactants include the condensation products of alkylene oxides with fatty acids (i.e. alkylene oxide esters of fatty acids).
When 2o these particular nonionics are used, it is preferable to use them at low concentrations, preferably 'in combination with one or more of the other surfactants disclosed herein. These materials have the general fogTnula RCO(X)nOH wherein R
is a C 10-30 alkyl group, 'X is -OCH2CH2- (i.e. derived from ethylene glycol or oxide) or -OCH2CHCH3- (i.e. derived from propylene glycol or oxide), and n is an , integer from about 1 to about 100. Other nonionic surfactants are the condensation products of alkylene oxides with 2 moles of fatty acids (i.e. alkylene oxide diesters of fatty acids). These materials have the general formula RCO(X)nOOCR wherein R is a C10-30 alkyl group, X is -OCH2CH2-(i.e. derived from ethylene glycol or oxide) or -OCH2CHCH3-(i.e. derived from propylene.glycol or oxide), and n is an 3o integer from about 1 to about 100. Other nonionic surfactants are the condensation products of alkylene oxides with fatty alcohols (i.e. alkylene oxide ethers of fatty - alcohols). These materials have the general formula R(X)nOR' wherein R is a alkyl group, X is -OCH2CH2-(i.e. derived from ethylene glycol or oxide) or -OCH2CHCH3- (i.e. derived from propylene glycol or oxide), and n is an integer from about 1 to about 100 and R' is H or a C10-30 alkyl group. Still other nonionic surfactants are the condensation products of alkylene oxides with both fatty acids and fatty alcohols [i.e. wherein the polyalkylene oxiide portion is esterified on one 1~

Cationic polysaccharide polymer materials suitable for use herein include t s those of the formula:
R~
A-O (-R-N=R3Jt'') RI
wherein: A is an anhydroglucose residual group, such as a starch or cellulose 24 anhydroglucose residual, R is an alkyiene oxyallryleae, polyoxyalkylene, or hydroxyalkylene group, or combination thereof, Rl, R2, and R3 independently are alkyl, aryl, alkylaryl, arylalkyl, alkoxyallcyl, or alkoxyaryl groups, each group containing up to about 18 carbon 2s atoms, and the total number of carbon atoms for each cationic moiety (i.e., the sum of carbon atoms in Rl, R2 and R3) preferably being about 20 or less, aad .. X ~ ~ anionic counterion, as previously described.
Cationic cellulose is available from Amerchol Core. (Edison, NJ, USA) in their Polymer JR~ aad LR~ series of polymers, as salts of hydmxyethyl cellulose 3o reacted with trimethyl ammonium substituted epoxide, referred to in the industry (CTFA) as Polyquaternium 10.

These materials are available from Amerchol Corp. (Edison, 35 NJ, USA) under the tradename Polymer LM-200.

,g Other cationic polymers that can be used include cationic guar gum derivatives. such as guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride (commercially available from Celanese Corp. in their Jaguar R series). Other materials include quaternary nitrogen-containing cellulose ethers (e.g., as described in U.S. Patent 3,962,418 and copolymers of etherified cellulose and starch (e.g., as described in U.S. Patent 3,958,581 As discussed above, the cationic polymer hereof is water soluble. This does not mean, however, that it must be soluble in the shampoo composition.
Preferably however, the cationic polymer is either soluble in the shampoo composition, or in a t o coacervate phase in the shampoo composition formed by the cationic polymer and anionic material. Coacervates of the cationic polymer can be formed with anionic surfactants or with anionic polymers that can optionally be added to the compositions hereof (e.g., sodium polystyrene sulfonate).
Coacervate formation is dependent upon a variety of criteria such as t s molecular weight, concentration, and ratio of interacting ionic materials, ionic suength (including modification of ionic strength, for example, by addition of salts), charge density of the cationic and anionic species, pH, and temperattue.
Coscervate systems and the effect of these parameters has previously been studied. See, for example, J. Caeiles, et al., "Anionic and Cationic Compounds in Mixed Systems", Zo Cosmetics 8t Toiletries, Vol. 106, April 1991, pp 49-54, C. J. van Oss, "Coacervation, Complex-Coacs~rvation and Flocculation", J. Dispersion Science and Technology, Vol. 9 (5,6), 1988-89, pp 561-573, and D. J. Burgess, "Practical Analysis of Complex Coacervate Systems", J. of Colloid and Interface Science, Vol.
140, No. 1, November 1990, pp 227-238.
Zs It is believed to be particularly advantageous for the cationic polymer to be prd~t in the shampoo in a coece:vate phase, or to form a coacervate phase upon application or rinsing of the shampoo to or from the hair. Coacer'rates are believed to move readily deposit on the hair. Thus, in general, it is preferred that the cationic polymer exist in the shaanpoo as s coacervate phase or form a coacervate phase upon 3o dilution. If not already a coacervate in the shampoo, the cationic polymer will preferably exist in a coaxrvate form in the shampoo upon dilution with water to a waterahampoo composition weight ratio of about 20:1, more preferably at about 10:1, even more preferably at about 8:1.
Techniques for analysis of formation of coacervates are known in the art.
3s For example, microscopic analyses of the shampoo compositions, at any chosen stage of dilution, can be utilized to identify whether a coacervate phase has formed.
Such coacetvate phase will be identifiable as an additional emulsified phase in the ?9 composition. The use of dyes can aid in distinguishing the coacervate phase from other insoluble phases dispersed in the composition.
Conditioning ingredients such as oils and emollients can also be incorporated into the styling shampoo compositions of this invention.
Other Optional Ingredients The high lather styling shampoo compositions herein can contain a variety of other optional components suitable for rendering such compositions more cosmetically or aesthetically acceptable or to provide them with additional usage benefits. Such conventional optional ingredients are well-known to those skilled in o the art, e.g., pearlescent aids, such as coated mica, ethylene glycol distearate, and PEG 3 distearate; opacifiers such as Ti02 ; preservatives, such as benzyl alcohol, Glydant, Kathon, methyl paraben, propyl paraben and imidazolidinyl urea; fatty alcohols, such as cetearyl alcohol; sodium chloride; sodium sulfate; polyvinyl alcohol; ethyl alcohol; pH adjusting agents, such as citric acid, sodium citrate, 15 succinic acid, phosphoric acid, monosodium phosphate, disodium phosphate, sodium hydroxide, and sodium carbonate; coloring agents, such as any of the FD&C
or D&C dyes; perftuues; sequestering agents, such as disodium ethylenediamine tetra-acetate; aad polymer plasticizing agents, such as glycerin and propylene glycol.
The present compositions can also optionally comprise thickeners and viscosity 2o modifiers, such as a diethanolamide of a long chain fatty acid (e.g., PEG 3 lauric diethanolamide), lauramide DEA, cocomonoethaaol amide, guar gum, xanthan gum, Crothix (PEG 150 Pentaerythrityl Tetrastearate), methyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, starches and starch derivatives. Various salts and electrolytes, preferably sodium chloride, can also be used as needed to adjust the viscosity of the present 25 compositions. The compositions can comprise a nonionic long chain alkylated cellulose ether thickener such as those materials described is U.S. Patent 4,228,277, Landoll, issued October 14, 1980 Such optioaal ingredients generally are used individually at levels of from 3o about 0.01% to about 10.0%, preferably from about 0.05% to about 5.0%, of the shampoo composition.
As with all compositions, the present invention should not contain optional components which unduly interfere with the cleaning aad hair style holding performaace of the present shampoo compositions.
35 Method of Maki~,g The styling shampoo compositions of the present invention can be made using conventional formulation and mixing techniques. The hair styling polymer should WO 97/07782 PCT/~JS96/13574 first be dissolved in the non-polar volatile solvent. The remaining ingredients are combined in a separate vessel and the polymer and solvent mixture is added to these remaining ingredients. The composition should have a final viscosity of from about 1500 to about 12,000 cps. The viscosity of the composition can be adjusted using 5 sodium chloride as needed.
Method of Use The high lather styling shampoo compositions of the present invention are used in conventional ways to provide cleansing and styling hold benefits. Such methods generally involve application of an effective amount of the shampoo l0 product to the wet hair, which is massaged through and then rinsed from the hair.
By "effective amount" is meant an amount sufficient to provide the hair cleaning and styling hold benefits desired considering the length and texture of the hair.
After the hair is shampooed with the compositions of the present invention, the hair is dried and styled in the usual ways of the user, e.g. combing, brushing, blow drying, 15 curling, heat drying, etc.
