Description

STABLE AQUEOUS SURFACTANT COMPOSITIONS

FIELD OF INVENTION

The present invention relates to the formation of stable, aqueous compositions containing a substantially crosslinked alkali-swellable acrylate . copolymer rheology modifier, a surfactant, an alkaline material, and various compounds therein, as for example substantially insoluble materials requiring suspension or stabilization, such as a silicone, an oily material, or a peariescent material. Additionally, this invention also relates to the formation of a rheologically and phase stable cationic hair dye composition. The invention further relates to the incorporation of an acidic material after the addition of an alkaline material to reduce the pH of the composition without negatively impacting the viscosity and rheology of the composition.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Heretofore, various substantially insoluble compounds could not be adequately stabilized in an aqueous surfactant containing composition. For example, various aqueous surfactant compositions which contain silicone additives therein, as for example hair or skin conditioners, would separate and/or cream from their surfactant base. Various pearlescent materials, which are often utilized to provide a pearlescent appearance, would have a short shelf life and produce a diminished pearlescent appearance ("flatten out") or actually settle. In other words, instability problems generally existed with regards to the incorporation of silicones and pearlescent materials.
While cationic or basic dyes for hair have been utilized in shampoos to impart temporary color or highlights, the cationic dyes were generally incompatible with the anionic surfactants typically used in traditional shampoo formulas. Accordingly, amphoteric surfactants have been utilized to impart cleansing and detergency properties to the shampoos, but such surfactants do not sufficiently thicken to provide the desired product rheology.
While traditional polymeric rheology modifiers, such as carbomers and/or acrylates/C10_30 alkyl acrylate cross polymers, have been utilized to increase viscosity, the rheological stability of these compositions is still generally poor.
Various attempts have been made to remedy the above problems.

For example, U.S. Patent 5,656,257 relates to an anionic shampoo and conditioning composition comprising an oily conditioning agent, a shampooing agent, an acrylate copolymer, a cationic conditioning agent, and water. It also relates to the incorporation of a C8-C18 fatty acid. The composition utilizes both oily and cationic conditioning agents in combination with an anionic acrylate copolymer for maintaining stability and dispersion.
WO 99/21530 relates to a hair care composition comprising from about 1.00 lo to about 80.00% by weight of one or more surfactants selected from the group consisting of anionic, nonionic, cationic and zwitterionic surfactants and mixtures thereof; from about 0.05% to about 15.00% by weight of at least one fatty alcohol having from 10 to about 30 carbon atoms; from about 0.10% to about 15.00% by weight of a non-volatile silicone; and from about 1.35% to about 2.70% by weight of a non-crosslinked polymeric suspending agent.
EPO 463,780 relates to a stable, pearly shampoo composition comprising insoluble, non-volatile silicone which may be obtained by including a suspending polymer, to prevent the silicone "creaming" to the top of the bottle in storage, and also to prevent the particles of titanium dioxide coated mica from settling. The composition further relates to an aqueous shampoo composition comprising in addition to water:
(a) from 2 to 40% by weight of a surfactant chosen from anionic, nonionic or amphoteric surfactants, or mixtures thereof;
(b) from 0.01 to 10% by weight of an insoluble, non-volatile silicone;
(c) from 0.1 to 5% by weight of a suspending polymer chosen from polyacrylic acid, cross-linked polymers of acrylic acid, copolymers of acrylic acid with a hydrophobic monomer, copolymers of carboxylic acid-containing monomers and acrylic esters, cross-linked copolymers of acrylic acid and acrylate esters, and heteropolysaccharide gums; and (d) from 0.01 to 5% by weight of titanium dioxide coated mica.
U.S. Patent No. 4,529,773 relates to compositions containing an associative thickener (a hydrophobically modified alkali-soluble emulsion polymer) that has been activated by neutralization to a pH above 6.5, and subsequently acidified in the presence of a surfactant.
However, the above prior art does not produce sufficiently stabilized aqueous surfactant compositions such as with respect to various silicones, oily materials, pearlescent materials, cationic hair dyes, and other substantially insoluble materials.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

A stable aqueous composition comprises a substantially crosslinked alkali-swellable acrylate copolymer rheology modifier, water, an alkaline material, and' an effective amount of a surfactant so that a substantially insoluble compound is stabilized or suspended in the composition. Compositions can be stabilized that contain various volatile and nonvolatile silicone oils, oily materials, and the like. Compositions containing a pearlescent material can be stabilized and which further impart an enhanced pearlescent appearance to the composition. Additionally, compositions containing cationic dyes can be attained and maintained with acceptable rheology. Furthermore, a "Back-Acid" formulation technique can be utilized to achieve low pH
compositions. These stable aqueous surfactant compositions can generally maintain a smooth, acceptable rheology, without significant increases or decreases in viscosity or pH, with no separation, settling, or creaming out, over extended periods of time such as for at least one month at 45 C. The polymeric rheology modifier is generally made from one or more carboxylic acid monomers, vinyl monomers, and polyunsaturated monomers. The surfactant can be an anionic, an amphoteric, a zwitterionic, a nonionic, or a cationic surfactant, or combinations thereof.

-4a-Thus, in accordance with the invention, there is provided a stable, aqueous surfactant containing composition, comprising:
a. at least one anionic, zwitterionic, amphoteric, nonionic, or cationic surfactant, or combinations thereof;
b. at least one substantially crosslinked alkali-swellable acrylate copolymer rheology modifier polymerized from 1) about 20% to about 80% by weight of at least one carboxylic acid monomer comprising acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, itaconic acid, fumaric acid, crotonic acid, aconitic acid, or maleic acid, or combinations thereof;
2) about 80% to about 15% by weight of at least one (x,(3-ethylenically unsaturated monomer, wherein said monomer has the formula:
i) CHZ = CXY, where X is H and Y is -COOR, -C6H4R', -CN, -CONH2, -Cl, -NC4H6O, NH(CH2)3COOH, -NHCOCH3, -CONHC(CH3)3, or -CO-N(CH3)2, or X is CH3 and Y is -COOR, -C6H4R', -CN; or -CH=CH2;
or X is Cl and Y is Cl, and R is C1-C18 alkyl, or hydroxy C2-C 1 g alkyl, R' is H or C1-C18 alkyl or having the formula:
ii) CHz = CH (OCOR');
where R' is CI-C 1 g alkyl; or having the formula:
iii) CH2 = CH2 or CH2 = CHCH3; and 3) from about 0.01 to about 5% by weight of at least one polyunsaturated compound;
c. water;
d. an effective amount of at least one alkaline material to yield a composition having a pH of from about 5 to about 14; and e. an effective amount of a subsequently added acidic material to yield a composition having a reduced pH of from about 1 to about 12.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The headings provided herein serve to illustrate, but not to iimit the invention in any manner.
Polymeric Rheology Modifier The polymeric rheology modifier provides various rheological properties, such as flow properties, thickening or viscosity, vertical cling, suspending ability, and Yield Value. Yield Value, also referred to as Yield Stress, is herein defined as the initial resistance to flow under stress. It can be measured using a number of techniques, such as via the use of a constant stress rheometer or via extrapolation using a Brookfield viscometer.
These techniques and the usefulness of the Yield Value measurement are further explained in Technical Data Sheet Number 244 available from The B.F.Goodrich Company;
In addition, the polymer is also useful to provide stabilization of insoluble materials, such as particulate matter or oily materials, in the formulation, as well as providing stability to the entire formulation.
The substantially crosslinked alkali-swellabie acrylate copolymer rheology modifier of the present invention can generally be prepared by various polymerization routes, such as emulsion, solution, precipitation, and the like, with emulsion polymerization generally being preferred. Emulsion polymerization is generally carried out at a pH of from about 2.5 to about 5.0, with at least three essentially ethylenically unsaturated components. Furthermore, none of these monomers are an associative monomer which is a copolymerizable surfactant capable of nonspecific hydrophobic association similar to those of conventional surfactants.
The polymeric rheology modifier of the present invention generally comprises three structural components. The first component is one or more carboxylic acid monomers having a total of from about 3 to about 10 carbon atoms. Examples of such monomers include but are not limited to acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, itaconic acid, fumaric acid, crotonic acid, maleic acid, or aconitic acid. Moreover, half esters of polyacids, such as maleic acid, fumaric acid, itaconic acid, or aconitic acid and the like with C,_4 alkanols can also be used, particularly if it is used in minor amounts in combination with acrylic acid or methacrylic acid.
The amounts of such carboxylic acid monomers is generally from about 20% to 80% by weight, desirably from about 25% to about 70% by weight and preferably from about 35% to about 65% by weight based upon the total weight of the monomers.
The second component is one or more non-acid vinyl monomers which are utilized in an amount of from about 80% to about 15% by weight, desirably from about 75% to about 25%
by weight, and preferably from about 65% to about -35% by weight based upon the total weight of the monomers. Such vinyl monomers are a,(3-ethylenically unsaturated monomers having the formula:
1) CHa=CXY, where X is H and Y is -COOR, -C6H4R', -CN, -CONH2, -Cl, -NC4H6O, -NH(CH2)3COOH, -NHCOCH3, -CONHC(CH3)3, -CO-N(CH3)21 or X is CH3 and Y is -COOR, -C6H4R', -CN or -CH=CHz;
or X is Cl and Y is Cl, and R is C1-C18 alkyl, or hydroxy C2-C18 alkyl, R' is H or C,-C18 alkyl or having the formula:
2) CH2=CH (OCOR1);
where R' is C1-C18 alkyl;
or having the formula:
3) CHZ = CHa or CH2 = CHCH3.
Typical of such vinyl monomers or mixture of monomers are the various acrylate or hydroxy acrylate esters wherein the ester portion has from 1 to 10 carbon atoms such as methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, n-butyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, or various vinyl acetates, or styrene, or vinyl chloride, or vinylidene chloride, or acrylonitrile, acrylamide, N,N,-dimethylacrylamide, t-butyl-acrylamide, and their methacrylate analogs.
The third component forming the acrylate rheology modifier is one or more polyunsaturated compounds. Monomeric unsaturated compounds carrying a reactive group that is capable of causing a formed copolymer to be crosslinked before, during, or after polymerization has taken place can also be used.
The various polyunsaturated compounds are utilized to generate either a partially or substantially-crosslinked three-dimensional network. Examples of such polyunsaturated compounds are the polyalkenyl ethers of sucrose, or polyalcohols; diallylphthalates, divinyl benzene, allyl (meth)acrylate, ethylene glycol di(meth)acrylate, methylene bisacrylamide, trimethylolpropane tri(meth)acrylate, diallyl itaconate, diallyl fumarate, diallyl maleate, zinc (meth)acrylate, derivatives of castor oils or polyols made from ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid and the like, glycidyl methacrylate, N-methylol acylamide or N-alkoxymethylacrylamide., alkoxy being C, to C,$ alcohol; hydroxy(meth)acrylate or (meth)acrylate end-capped caprolactones.
For those skilled in the art of making unsaturated derivatives, a reaction scheme such as an esterification reaction of polyols made from ethylene oxide or propylene oxide or combinations thereof with unsaturated acid such as acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, or with unsaturated anhydride such as maleic anhydride, citraconic anhydride, itaconic anhydride, or an addition reaction with unsaturated isocyanate such as 3-isopropenyl-a-a-dimethylbenzene isocyanate, is also within the scope of the present invention. Wherever "(meth)" is utilized, it means that the use of the methyl group is optional.
The third component can be used in an amount from about 0.01 to about 5% by weight, desirably from about 0.03 to about 3% by weight, and preferably from about 0.05 to about 1 % by weight based upon the total weight of all of the monomers forming said acrylate copolymer rheology modifier.
Furthermore, the crosslinked copolymer rheology modifier is generally free of any moieties derived from associative monomers (i.e. copolymerizable surfactants). Generally free is defined as containing less than about 9% by weight, desirably less than about 0.5% by weight, and preferably less than about 0.2% by weight.
The partially or substantially crosslinked three dimensional network of the present invention can be made in any conventional manner such as set forth in U.S. Patent No.
4,138,380, or U.S. Patent No. 4,110,291.
Generally, one or more monomers of the above noted carboxylic acid monomers, vinyl monomers, and polyunsaturated monomers are added to a reaction vessel which contains water therein. Suitabie amounts of conventional or typical emulsion polymerization surfactants such as sodium lauryl sulfate are added as well as emulsibn type initiators, for example sodium or potassium persulfate, redox initiator, and the like. The reaction vessel can also contain a chain transfer agent. The temperature is then increased from about 60 C to about 100 C
. and polymerization commences. Optionally, during the reaction, additional monomers are added over a period of time. Upon completion of the addition of the monomers, polymerization is allowed to run to completion generally by adding additional initiator.
Poiymeric rheology modifiers of the present invention are commercially available from The B.F.Goodrich Company under the name of Acrylates Crosspolymer. Preferred are the polymers which provide a viscosity in water of 500 to 10,000 cP
(Brookfield RVT, 20 rpm) at 1 % active polymer concentration at pH 6-8.
The amount of the one or more substantially crosslinked alkali-swellable acrylate copolymers is generally from about 0. 1 %
to about 10%, desirably from about 0.3% to about 5%, and preferably from about 0.5% to about 3% of active polymer based upon the total weight of the composition.
Surfactant The stabilized compositions contain various surfactants such as anionic, amphoteric, zwitterionic, nonionic, cationic, or combinations thereof.

Insoluble Materials or Compounds The materials or compounds which require stabilization can be soluble or insoluble in water. Such compounds include insoluble silicones, silicone gums, volatile and nonvolatile silicone oils, pearlescent materials, and other types of compounds set forth hereinbelow.

Silicones and Insoluble Oily Compounds Silicone and oily compounds are often incorporated into a formulation for conditioning, especially on hair and skin, and to improve or impart shine, gloss, water resistance, and or lubricity. These materials can also function as moisture barriers or protectants.
The silicone compound can be insoluble or soluble in water.
Suitable water-insoluble, non-volatile silicone materials include amodimethicone, amodimethicone macroemulsions or microemulsions, polyalkylsiloxanes, poly-arylsiloxanes, polyalkylarylsiloxanes, organo polysiloxane, alkoxysilicone, polysiloxane gums, and polyethersiloxane copolymers.

Water-insoluble silicone materials may also be considered oily conditioning agents. Teachings directed to suitable water-soluble and insoluble silicone materials are found in U. S. Pat. Nos. 4,788,006; 4,341,799;
4,152,416;
3,964,500; 3,208,911; 4,364,837 and 4,465,619.
Additional non-soluble, silicone materials which can be utilized include volatile silicones, for example cyclomethicone, or polydimethylsiloxane with a viscosity of 10 cS or less.
Suitable water-soluble silicones include polyether/polysiloxane block copolymers, such as dimethicone copolyol, and derivatives thereof.
Examples of commercially available silicone materials include Dow Corning 200, 345, 3225C, 929 Emulsion, 949 Emulsion, 1664 Emulsion, 1692 Emulsion, 1784 Emulsion, 2-1894 Microemulsion, 184 Emulsion; and General Electric SF-1202, SF18 (350), SF2169, Viscasil 60M, SM2658; and from B.F.Goodrich, such as B.F.Goodrich wax S, C, and F; and others.
Preferred silicone materials 'used as an oily conditioning agent are polydimethylsiloxanes which have the CTFA
designation of dimethicone and which range in viscosity from 5 to 100,000 cS at 25 C, and dimethiconol, and emulsions thereof. A preferred dimethicone has a viscosity of about 60,000 cS and is available from Dow Corning or General Electric.
Other suitable oily materials or conditioning agents include, but are not limited to the following: mineral oils and saturated or unsaturated vegetable oils such as soybean oil, babassu oil, castor oil, cottonseed oil, Chinese tallow oil, crambe oil, perilia oil, Danish rapeseed, rice bran oil, palm oil, palm kernel oil, olive oil, linseed oil, coconut oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, peanut oil, corn oil, sesame oil, and avocado oil, as well as petrolatum; d-limonene, emollients, Vitamin E, and Vitamin A, and esters such as isopropylpalmitate, cetearyl octanoate, C12-15 alkylbenzoate, ?5 octyl stearate, and other materials such as PPG-2 myristyl etherpropionate, and the like.
The silicone or the oily conditioning agent, or combinations thereof comprises between about 0.1 % to about 20%, more preferably between about 0.3% to about 7% and most preferably about 0.5% to about 5% by weight of the composition.

Pearlescent Material Some formulations are often opacified by deliberately incorporating pearlescent materials therein to achieve a cosmetically attractive pearl-like appearance, known as pearlescence. Persons skilled in the art are aware of problems faced by formulators in consistently preparing a pearlescent formulation. A detailed discussion is found in the article "Opacifiers and pearling agents in shampoos" by Hunting, Cosmetic and Toiletries, Vol. 96, pages 65-78 (July 1981).

The pear(escent material includes titanium dioxide coated mica, iron oxide coated mica, ethylene glycol mono-stearate, ethylene glycol distearate, polyethylene glycol distearate, bismuth oxychloride coated mica, myristyl myristate, guanine, glitter (polyester or metallic), and mixtures thereof. Other pearlescent materials can be found in U.S. Patent No. 4,654,207 and U.S.
Patent No. 5,019,376.
Surprisingly, an improved or enhanced pearlescent appearance has been observed when incorporating said substantially crosslinked alkali-swellable acrylate polymers. A
visually perceivable improved appearance is observed initially and especially after the compositions have been aged for 24 hours, as compared to compositions not containing the polymer.
Furthermore, the polymer further prevents the sedimentation or precipitation of the pearlescent material thus significantly decreasing the "flattening out" of the pearlescent appearance.
Additionally, it is believed that the polymeric rheology modifier serves to hold the pearlescent particles or platelets in their optimal configuration for maximum pearlescent appearance.
The amount of the pearlescent material can generally be used in amounts of from about 0.05% to about 10% and desirably from about 0.15% to about 3% by weight based upon the total weight of the stabilized composition.

Other Insoluble Compounds In addition to the above generally insoluble compounds, numerous other io optional substantially insoluble compounds which require stabilization can be utilized. Examples of such other insoluble compounds include Titanium Dioxide;
Pumice; Calcium Carbonate; Talc; Potato Starch; Tapioca Starch; Jojoba Beads;
Polyethylene Beads; Walnut Shells; Loofah; Apricot Seeds; Almond Meal; Corn Meal; Paraffin; Oat Bran/Oat Hulls; Gelatin Beads; Alginate Beads; Stainless is Steel Fibers; Iron Oxide Pigments; Air Bubbles; Mica Coated Iron Oxides;
Kaolin Clay; Zinc Pyrithione; Salicylic Acid; Zinc Oxide; Zeolite; Styrofoam Beads;
Phosphates; silica, and the like. Other generally insoluble compounds include teatree powder, microsponges, confetti (a trademark of United Guardian Company), talc, beeswax, and the like.
20 The amount of the various insoluble compounds requiring stabilization will vary depending upon its purpose, desired end result, and efficacy thereof.
Hence amounts can vary widely, but frequently will be within a general range of from about 0.1% to about 50% by weight based upon the total weight of the stable composition.
25 In another aspect the range of zinc pyrithione can range from about 0.1% to about 0.5% by weight based upon the weight of the composition.
Cationic Dyes For Hair Coloring The dyes which can be utilized in a temporary hair dye or color maintenance shampoo are generally soluble. Such dyes are generally known to the art and to the literature and are generally referred to as cationic or basic dyes. These dyes are commonly described in two different manners. The dye name (e.g. Basic Brown 16) relates to its INCI name (International Nomenclature Cosmetic Ingredient) and/or its CTFA name (Cosmetic, Toiletry and Fragrance Association) name. 'Another way to refer to these dyes is through its Color Index number (e.g. Cl 12250) which is used by the European Union. Both sets of numbers are set forth in the "International Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary and Handbook" for example, the 7'h Edition, 1997, published by The Cosmetic, Toiletry, and Fragrance Association, Washington, D.C., U.S.A. These cationic dyes are commercially available from Warner Jenkinson under the trademark Arianor. Specific cationic dyes which can be utilized include the various azo dyes such as Basic Brown 16 (CI 12250), Basic Brown 17 (Cl 12251), Basic Red 76 (CI 12245), Basic Yellow 57 (CI 12719), as well as various anthraquinone dyes such as Basic Blue 99 (CI 56059) and the like.
The amount of the hair dye when utilized in typical temporary color shampoos is generally from about 0.1 to about 5% by weight based upon the total weight of the stabilized composition.
Alkaline Material The polymeric rheology modifiers of the present invention are generally supplied in their acidic form. These polymers modify the rheology of a formulation through subsequent neutralization of the carboxyl groups of the polymer. This causes ionic repulsion and a three dimensional expansion of the microgel network thus resulting in an increase in viscosity and other rheological properties. This is also referred to in the literature as a "space filling" mechanism as compared to an associative thickening mechanism.
The alkaline material is therefore incorporated to neutralize the polymer and is preferably a neutralizing agent. Many types of neutralizing agents can be used in the present invention, including inorganic and organic neutralizers. Examples of inorganic bases include but are not limited to the alkali hydroxides (especially sodium, potassium, and ammonium).
Examples of organic bases include but are not limited to triethanolamine (TEA), L-arginine, aminomethyl propanol, tromethamine (2-amino 2-hydroxymethyl-1,3-propanediol), PEG-15 cocamine, diisopropanolamine, triisopropanolamine, or tetrahydroxypropyl ethylene diamine. Alternatively, other alkaline materials can be used, such as pre-neutralized surfactants or materials which incorporate a neutralizing agent therein or any other material capable of increasing the pH of the composition.
Acidic Materials Various acidic materials can be utilized in the present invention such as organic acids, for example citric acid, acetic acid, alpha-hydroxy acid, beta-hydroxy acid, salicylic acid, lactic acid, glycolic acid, or natural fruit acids, or inorganic acids, for example hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, sulfamic acid, phosphoric acid, and combinations thereof. Addition of the acidic materials can be at various points in the process, however, the addition of the acidic material after the addition of the alkaline neutralizing agents yields significantly improved rheological properties. This will be discussed in greater detail in the "back acid" formulation technique section.

Other Optional Rheology Modifiers The composition can optionally contain other rheology modifiers to be used in conjunction with the substantially crosslinked alkali-swellable acrylate copolymer. These polymers are well known in the art and can include natural, semi-synthetic (e.g. clays), or synthetic polymers. Examples of natural or modified natural polymers include but are not limited to gums (e.g., xanthan gum), cellulosics, modified cellulosics, starches, or polysaccharides. Examples of other synthetic polymers include but are not limited to cross-linked polyacrylates, hydrophobically modified alkali-soluble polymers, or hydrophobically modified nonionic urethane polymers. Additionally, the adjustment of viscosity by admixture of salt is also well known and can be employed in the present invention. If present in a composition, these rheology modifiers are generally used from about 0.01 to about 5% by weight of the stable composition.

Examples of pharmaceutical applications include topical formulations in the form of creams, lotions, ointments, or gels, where the surfactant may be used as a wetting aid for the pharmaceutically active material, or as a skin penetration enhancer, or as an emulsifier for a solvent phase having an aesthetic effect, or present to enhance the solubility or bioavailability of the pharmaceutically active material. Similar formulations for internal application within the living body, or oral administration, or administration by mechanical means, can be utilized.
These formulations could be administered or applied to either human or veterinary conditions for the full breadth of indications treatable by pharmaceutical means, such as fever, irritation, dermatitis, rash; viral, fungal, or bacterial infection;
organic disease; etc.
The pharmaceutically active agents could have any appropriate function for treatment of the condition, and can be a mixture of one or more pharmaceutically active materials, such as emetics, antiemetics, febrifuge, fungicide, biocide, bactericide, antibiotic, antipyretic, NSAID, emollient, analgesics, antineoplastics, cardiovascular agents, CNS stimulants, CNS

Formulating Techniques The present invention can be made in a number of ways.
Generally the one or more substantially crosslinked alkali-swellable acrylate copolymers are added to water and mixed.
The surfactant is subsequently added to the aqueous polymeric solution and mixed therein. (Alternatively, the surfactant can be added first to the water followed by the addition of the polymer.) An alkaline material, preferably a neutralizing agent, for example sodium hydroxide, triethanolamine, etc, is then added and mixed to neutralize the solution. The remaining additives including the compound to be stabilized are then added with mixing to produce a desirable end product.

"Back-Acid" Formulating Technique The polymeric rheology modifiers of the present invention do not start to build substantial viscosity until a pH of about 5 or 6 is achieved. There are some Home and Personal Care applications, however, that require a pH of less than 6 for optimal and desired performance. This has limited the use of such polymers in such compositions. Additionally, it is difficult to even formulate stable applications at this lower pH range.
Surprisingly, it has now been found that if these compositions are raised to a near neutral or even alkaline pH and then subsequently reduced in pH, the viscosity and yield value generally remain unchanged or often actually increase.
This formulating technique will be herein referred to as "Back-Acid"
thickening.
This formulating technique thusly broadens the scope of application of these polymers and now allows for formulation in the acidic pH regime. Additionally, io the process of "Back-Acid" thickening can also be used to further increase the viscosity and stability of compositions formulated in the slightly acidic and in the alkaline pH regime.
The one or more acrylate copolymers, polymers, and the like are added to water and mixed. The surfactant is subsequently added to the aqueous polymeric solution and mixed therein. An alkaline material is then added and mixed to increase the pH of the composition to at least about 5 to about 14, preferably at least about 6, and most preferably at least about 6.5. The alkaline material is preferably a neutralizing agent, such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, triethanolamine, or another fatty acid amine neutralizing agent commonly used in said applications. Alternatively, other alkaline materials can be used, such as pre-neutralized surfactants. The pH should desirably be at least about 0.5 or 2 pH
units and preferably at least 3, 4, or even 5 pH units above the final target pH of the composition. An acidic material is then added to reduce the pH of the composition.
The material used to decrease the pH of the application is an acidic material, preferably an organic acid, such as citric acid, acetic acid, alpha-hydroxy acid, beta-hydroxy acid, salicylic acid, lactic acid, glycolic acid, natural fruit acids, or combinations thereof. In addition, inorganic acids, for example hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, sulfamic acid, phosphoric acid, and combinations thereof can be utilized. The amount of such acid is generally from about 0.1 to about 20%, desirably from about 0.2% to 15%, more desirably from about 0.2% to 6%, and preferably from about 0.25% to about 10% by weight based upon the total weight of the stabilized composition.
The desired pH to stabilize compositions of the present invention is obviously dependent on the specific applications. Generally, Personal Care applications have a desired pH range of about 3 to about 7.5, desirably from about 4 to about 6. Generally, Home Care applications have a desired pH range of about I to about 12, and desirably from about 3 to about 10. More specifically, when a generally insoluble silicone or pearlescent compound is utilized, a desired pH
is from about 5.5 to about 12, whereas when a hair dye is stabilized, the pH is from about 5 to about 9.

Stabilitv:
The various personal care, home care, industrial, institutional, etc. products or compositions made using the substantially crosslinked alkali-swellable acrylate copolymer rheology modifier of the present invention are stable. The stability requirements for a particular composition will vary with its end marketplace application as well as the geography in which it is to be bought and sold. An acceptable "shelf life" is subsequently determined for each composition. This refers to the amount of time that a composition should be stable across its normal storage and handling conditions, measured between the time that the composition is produced and when it is finally sold for consumption. Generally, Personal Care compositions require a 3 year shelf life whereas Home Care compositions require a 1 year shelf life.
To eliminate the need to conduct stability studies in excess of one year, the formulato'r will conduct stability testing at stressed conditions in order to predict the shelf life of a composition. Typically, accelerated testing is conducted at elevated static temperatures, usually 45-50 C. A composition should be stable for at least 2 weeks, desirably 1 month, preferably 2 or 3 months, and most preferably 4 or 5 months at 451C. Additionally, freeze-thaw cycling is often employed wherein the composition is cycled between a freezing temperature, usually 0 C, and an ambient temperature, usually 20-25 C. A composition should pass a minimum of 1 freeze-thaw cycle, preferably 3 cycles, and most preferably 5 cycles.
Products or compositions made according to the present invention are considered stable if they meet one or more of the following criteria:
1. There is no phase separation, settling, or creaming of any material in the composition. The composition should remain completely homogenous throughout its bulk.
Separation is herein defined as the visible existence of 2 or more distinct layers or phases of any component in the formulation, including but not limited to insoluble matter, soluble matter, oily substances and the like.
2. The viscosity of the composition does not significantly increase or decrease over time, generally less than 50%, preferably less than 35%, and most preferably less than 20 % .
3. The pH of the composition does not increase or decrease more than two pH units, preferably not more than one unit, and most preferably not more than one-half unit.
4. The rheology and texture of the composition does not significantly change over time to that which is unacceptable.
Products or compositions made according to the present invention are considered unstable if they do not meet one or more of the above listed criteria.

Monograph Number 2", published on behalf of the International Federation of Societies of Cosmetic Chemists by Micelle Press, Weymouth, Dorset, England, and Cranford, New Jersey, U.S.A.
