SOLID COMPOSITIONS
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a solid composition, particularly for
coloring and/or bleaching
hair.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
It is known already systems for custom coloration of keratinous fibers,
particularly mammal hair
such as human hair. See for example I'CI' patent application W02012/127429
from
COLORIGI IT LTD, published on 2711` September 2012. W020121127429 discloses
particularly
methods, systems; tablet formulations, a dispensing device configured for
dispensing tablet
formulations, an optical reader for obtaining optical information from
keratinous fibers, a device
and a method for predicting the treatment operation of keratinous fibers and
for selecting a
suitable composition for treating keratinous fibers according to the
prediction, and systems for
custom treatment of keratinous fibers which utilize any of the tablet
formulations, dispensing
device, optical reader and predicting device and method, either alone or in
combination.
There is a need for providing solid compositions =--. e.g. tablet formulations
exhibiting a superior
performance and being particularly suitable for use with the methods, systems,
and devices as
those disclosed in W02012/127429.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a solid composition as described hereinafter,
particularly for use
with the methods, systems, and devices as those disclosed in W02012/127429.
The present
invention also relates to head-on compositions thereof, method for preparing
thereof, kits thereof,
packaging thereof:

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The inventors have surprisingly found that the use of the systems and devices,
as well as the
methods disclosed for example in PCT patent application W02012/127429, which
is
incorporated herewith in its entirety, can be improved further by designing
and using specific
solid compositions and kits thereof, and particularly by carefully selecting
the types and
proportions of components to be incorporated into these compositions and kits
thereof
Specifically, it has been found that the treatment of the keratinous fibers
was improved by


CA 02799284 2012-12-19

2
selecting specific types of dyes to be incorporated into the composition;
and/or by selecting
specific chelants, radical scavengers, solvents, oxidizing agents, thickeners
and/or a rheology
modifiers, carbonate ion sources, conditioning agents, surfactants, alkalizing
agents, pH
modifiers and/or buffering agents, and/or binder.

Solid compositions
By "solid composition", it is meant the composition to be stored. T his
composition is not suitable
for use as such for treating keratinous fibers. In contrast, it is not meant
the final composition, i.e.
the ready-to-use composition to be made shortly before applying in on-head
and/or treating the
keratinous fibers.
The present invention also relates to a composition in a solid form. The
composition may be in
the form of a (solid) tablet, alternatively in a (solid) pulverulent form,
alternatively in the form of
a (solid) foam.
The solid composition may be uncoated or coated. When coated, the composition
may be
partially coated, or integrally coated.
Whenever proportions, ranges and concentrations are expressed "by weight of
the total
composition", it is meant by weight of the total composition i.e. by weight of
the total solid
composition, without coating and before dilution/dissolution/disintegration
into a medium and/or
mixing with another composition. Whenever proportions, ranges and
concentrations are
expressed "by weight of the total on-head composition", it is meant by weight
of the total final
(ready-to-use) composition, after dilution/dissolution/disintegration into a
medium and/or mixing
with another composition and being ready for being applied onto keratinous
fibers.
The solid composition is substantially free of water. By "substantially free",
it is meant that the
composition comprises less than about 5%, alternatively less than about 4%,
alternatively less
than about 3%, alternatively less than about 2%, alternatively less than about
1% water by weight
of the total composition, or alternatively is free of water.

Disintegration rate and other properties
The solid composition is fast-disintegrating, and has a Disintegration rate of
less than about 5
minutes, alternatively less than about 3min, alternatively less than about
2min, alternatively less
than about /aria, alternatively less than about 30 seconds, alternatively less
than about 15sec,
alternatively less than about Ssec, alternatively less than about 3sec,. The
Disintegration rate. may
be measured using conventional methods. It has been surprisingly found that
providing


CA 02799284 2012-12-19

3
composition with such disintegration profile allows obtaining an improved
bleaching and/or
dyeing performance. Indeed, time management is key when wanting to bleach
and/Or color hair.
A composition having such Disintegration profile can be obtained by using
chemical and/or
physical means. Further preferred properties can be found in W02012/127429,
particularly the
disclosure from page 109, line 28 to page 113, line 12, which is incorporated
herewith by
reference.

Superdisintegrant agents
As per chemical means, the composition may comprise a component suitable for
obtaining a
Disintegration rate as defined hereinbefore. The composition may comprise a
superdisintegrant
component. By "superdisintegrant component", it is meant a component having a
water
absorption ratio of at least about 0.5, alternatively from about 0.5 to about
2, alternatively from
about 0.5 to about 1.5, alternatively from about 0.6 to about 0.9. The water
absorption ratio is
defined as the change in weight following wetting of the tablet divided by the
weight of the dry
tablet.
The superdisintegrant component may be substantially water-insoluble. By
"water-insoluble", it
is meant that the superdisintegrant component has a solubility of less than
about l.Ograrn.s,
alternatively less than about 3g, alternatively less than about 0.3g,
alternatively less than about
0.1g per kg of water (at 25 C, pH 7). The superdisintegrant component may be
selected from the
group consisting of polymeric superdisintegrant components, non-polymeric
superdisintegrant
components, or mixtures thereof, alternatively from the group consisting of
crosslinked
polymers; alternatively from the group consisting of crosslinked celluloses,
crosslinked
polyvinylpyrolidone, crosslinked starch, crosslinked alginic acid, crosslinked
poly(meth)acrylic
acid, polysaccharides, and mixtures thereof, alternatively from the group
consisting of
crosslinked celluloses, crosslinked polyvinylpyrroli done, crosslinked starch,
and mixtures
thereof, alternatively from the group consisting of crosslinked carboxyrnethyl
cellulose,
crosslinked polyvinylpyrrolidone, sodium starch glycolate, and mixtures
thereof. Commercially
available superdisintegrant components may be found for example under the
brands Ac-Di-Sol ,
Polyplasdon.e and Primo;ei .
The solid composition may comprise a total amount of superdisintegrant
components of less than
about 10%, alternatively from about 0.5 to about 10%, alternatively less than
about 5%,
alternatively from about 0.5% to about 5%, alternatively less than about 3%,
alternatively from
about 0,5% to about 3%, by weight of the total composition.

ethanol, propanol, isopropanol); aromatic alcohols (such as benzyl alcohol and
phenoxyethanol);
polyols and polyol ethers (such as carbitols, 2-butoxyetbanol, propylene
glycol, propylene glycol
monotnethyl ether, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, monotnethyl ether,
hexylene glycol,
glycerol, ethoxy glycol, butoxydiglycol, ethoxydiglycerol, dipropyleneglocol,
polygylcerol);
propylene carbonate; and mixtures thereof; alternatively ethanol, propanol.
isopropanol, glycerol,
1.2-propylene glycol, hexylene glycol, ethoxy diglycol, and mixtures thereof.
The solid composition may comprise a total amount of additional solvents of no
more than about
30% by weight of the total composition. Typically, when present, the on-head
composition
comprises a total amount of organic solvents ranging from about 1% to about
30%, by weight of
the total on-head composition.

Hinders and/or fillers
The composition according to the present invention may further comprise a
binder and/or a filler.
The solid composition may comprise a total amount of binders and/or fillers
ranging from about
50%, alternatively from about 60%, alternatively from about 70%, alternatively
from about 80%,
by weight of the total composition.
Suitable binders and/or fillers include, but arc not limited to: proteins;
saccharides and their
derivatives, including disaccharides and sugar alcohols; polysaccharides and
derivatives thereof;
synthetic polymers such as polyvinylpyrrolidone and polyethylene glycol;
alginate; gum; and
mixtures thereof.

Ionic strength
The on-head composition of the present invention may further have an ionic
strength as defined
herein of less than about 1.35mole/kg, alternatively from about 0.10 to about
0.75 mole/kg,
alternatively from about 0.20 to about 0.60 mole/kg. Whilst not being bound by
theory, it is
believed that the ionic strength value may also affect the resultant viscosity
and root adhesion


CA 02799284 2012-12-19

29
properties of the composition. The ionic strength can be affected by salt
resources such as the
dyes, sodium sulphate, ammonium carbonate anti-oxidants and chelants such as
EDDS. The dye
tends to have the greatest effect on the ionic strength and thus the amounts
added in order to
provide any particular shade need to be considered in terms of ionic strength
as well as dye
outcome in order to prevent viscosity and root adhesion problems.
The ionic strength of the composition is a function of the concentration of
all ions present in that
solution and is determined according to the formula:
T rc
nji j z2

where mi = molality of ion i (M - mot-/Kg H20), zi = charge number of that
ion, and the sum is
taken over all ions in the solution. For example, for a 1: 1 electrolyte such
as sodium chloride, the
ionic strength is equal to the concentration, but for MgSO4 the ionic strength
is four times higher.
Generally multivalent ions contribute strongly to the ionic strength.
For example the ionic strength of a mixed 0.050 M Na2SO4 and 0.020 M NaCI
solution is: I
1/2 ((2 x (+1)2 x 0.050) (+1)2 x 0.020 + (---))2 x 0.050 + (-1)` x 0.020) =
0.17 M.

herewith by reference.

On-head compositions and/or premixes
The solid compositions may be disintegrated (or diluted or dissolved) in a
medium, particularly
an aqueous medium, in order to form a composition ready to be applied onto
keratinous fibers
and/or to form premixes. Suitable media include, but are not limited to:

Method of Use/Kits
It is understood that the examples of methods of use and embodiments described
herein are for
illustrative purposes only and that various modifications or changes in light
thereof will be
suggested to one skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the
present invention.
5 Retail oxidative hair dye compositions are usually sold in kits comprising,
in individually
packaged components such as separate containers, a dye component (also called
"dye cream" for
emulsions or "dye liquid" for solutions) comprising the oxidative dye
precursors and alkalizing
agent which is typically ammonia in a suitable carrier and; a oxidizing
component (also called
"hydrogen peroxide cream" for emulsions or "hydrogen peroxide liquid" for
solutions)
10 comprising the oxidizing agent (usually hydrogen peroxide). The consumer
mixes the dye
component and oxidizing component together immediately before use and applies
it onto the
hair. Similarly, retail bleaching compositions are also usually sold as a kit
comprising two or
three individually packaged components typically in two or three separate
containers. The first
component comprises the ammonium ion source (e.g. ammonia), the second
component
15 comprises the oxidizing agent and the third (optional), component comprises
a second oxidizing
agent. The bleaching compositions are obtained by mixing the above-mentioned
compositions
immediately before use. As an alternative to the retail oxidative hair dye
compositions usually
sold, the products may be provided to the consumer as solid compositions, as
described
hereinbefore. The products may also be provided in a liquid/cream form to the
consumer (for
20 example by adding to the solid composition(s) a medium, particularly an
aqueous medium or
water), for the consumer to mix these compositions to obtain an on-head
composition, ready for
application onto hair.
For, the professional hair salon market, the hair dye component and the
oxidizing component
and/or bleaching compositions are typically supplied independently, like in
the present case in
25 the form of solid composition(s), to allow the professional to select a
preferred combination.
After working the combined mixture for a few minutes (to insure uniform
application to all of the
hair), the oxidative dye composition is allowed to remain on the hair for an
amount sufficient for
the dyeing to take place (usually from about 2 to about 60 minutes, typically
about 30 to about 45
minutes). The consumer or salon professional then rinses the hair thoroughly
with water acid/'or
30 shampoo and allows it to dry. It will be observed that the hair has changed
from its original
colour to the desired colour.

Suitable kits comprising the solid composition according to the present
invention can be found in
W02012/127429, particularly the disclosure from page 122, line 13 to page 126,
line 25, which
is incorporated herewith by reference.
In both retail and professional applications, an optional conditioning agent
can also be provided.
In this embodiment, all three compositions can be mixed immediately before use
and applied
together, or the conditioning agent can be applied (after an optional rinse
step), as a post-
treatment immediately after the oxidative dye composition or bleaching
composition resulting
from the mixture of the other containers.
The kits may also comprise as optional components a pre-treatment composition
and/or a colour
refresher composition Such colour refresher compositions comprise at least one
pre-formed dye
and may be applied to the hair immediately after the oxidative colour Le, from
about I minute
after oxidative hair dye or bleach application to about 60 days after the
application. These colour
refresher composition can be used to increase the initial colour obtained and
or boost the colour
during the wash and style cycle until the next oxidative colouring or
bleaching event.
Viscosity
According to the present invention, the dye composition and the oxidizing
composition may be,
independently from one another, prepared - from a solid corriposition(s) as so
called thin
liquids or thicker type creams. Typically, thin type liquids have a viscosity
of less than about
1000cPs. Thick type creams typically have a viscosity of from about I000cPs.
Upon mixing the dye and oxidizing compositions, the resultant hair coloring
and nor bleaching on-
head composition preferably have a viscosity of from about 1000 to about
60000cPs,
alternatively from about 2000 to about 30000 cPs, alternatively from about
3000 to about 25000
cPs. Viscosity is measured using Brookfield viscometers with cone and platy
attachment. For
viscosities in the range of about 0 to about 12000 ePs, the Brookfield DV-11
viscometer with
S42 plate is used. 2rii1 sample of the composition is equilibrated at 26.7 C
for three minutes
before the readings are taken at 1 rpm. For viscosities in the range of about
12,000 to about
60,000 cPs, the Brookfield DV-1 viscometer with S52 plate is used. 0,5rnl
sample of the
composition is equilibrated for 1 minute at 26.7 C before the readings are
taken at 1 rpm.
Method of manufacture of the solid composition
The solid compositions according to the present invention may be prepared in a
tablet form by
compression technique. Conventional compression techniques could be used such
as those that


CA 02799284 2012-12-19
32

can be found in W02012/127429, particularly the diisclosure from page 113,
Sine 13 to page 118,
line 14, which is incorporated herewith by reference.

Methods of manufacture
The kits described hereinabove are well-known in the art and the compositions
in each container
can be manufactured utilizing any one of the standard approaches, these
include a) `Oil-ins-water'
process, b) `Phase Inversion' process and c) `One-pot' process. Such
compositions may be
prepared from solid composition(s) according to the present invention. For
example, when using
"oil-ins-water" process, surfactants of the present invention are added to
approximately 50% of
total water amount of the composition at about 40 C, homogenized for 15 to 30
min, then cooled
to room temperature thus forming gel network thickener premix; this premix is
then mixed cold
with remaining amounts of water, other optional components and/or oxidizing
agent, thus
forming the first and second component parts of the above described bleaching
or colouring kit,
Packaging and dispensing devices
The present invention may be provided in a variety of packaging devices and/or
dispensing
devices. These dispensing devices can come in the form of separate devices
which may he used
independently or in combination with one another. Typically, the hair
colouring or bleaching
compositions are contained within separate single or multi compartment
containers so that the
compositions can be stored separately from one another before use. The
compositions are then
mixed together by a mixing means and then dispensed from the device and
applied to the
consumer's hair by an application means.

The most common packaging device which can be used for the present invention
involves storing
the developer in a container such as a bottle, tube, aerosol, or a sachet and
separately storing the
dye lotion in an additional compartment within the developer container or more
preferably in a
separate container which may be identical such as a dual sachet or aerosol
systems for example
or different such as a bottle and tube system, Any combination may be used and
is typically
contingent on the type of composition being stored i.e. whether or not it is a
thick or thin type.
The consumer or hair salon professional may mix the oxidizing component and
the dye
component by any means. This may simply involve the use of a mixing bowl into
which the
compositions are dispensed and then mixed, preferably using a mixing means
such as a tool.
Alternatively, it may involve the addition of one of the compositions into the
container of the
other composition (typically the dye composition is added to the oxidizing
composition),

followed by manual shaking or mixing witri a toot. Another system involves the
perforation or
displacement of a seal located between the separate compartments of the dye
and oxidizing
composition within a single container or sachet followed by manual mixing
within the container
or in a separate and or additional container.
The devices described herein above can also be used in combination with a
product delivery and
or application tool to aid application of the product onto the hair. Again
these devices may be of
a very simple nature such as a nozzle attached to one of the containers or a
separate applicator
device such as a comb or brush. Such combs and brushes can be adapted in order
to achieve
particular effects, whether it may be quick and even coverage or root/hairline
touch up, or
highlights :or streaks. Alternatively, the container or one of the containers
may be provided with a,
comb attached to or instead of the dispensing nozzle whereby the product is
dispensed through
hollow tines and dispensing apertures located in the comb tines. The comb
tines may be provided
with single or multiple openings along the tines to improve product
application and evenness
especially root to tip, Product dispensation can be achieved by mechanical
pressure applied to the
container for example delaminating bottles or any of the mechanisms described
hereinabove. The
comb may be provided on the container such as to facilitate easy application
and may be
positioned vertically (so called verticomb) or at an angle to allow the
consumer to access all
areas, All devices may be designed to have utter-changeability, so that a
range of different tools
for hair application can be provided to the consumer.
The application devices may also include devices which assist in achieving
particular effects
such as highlighting such as highlighting combs, brushes and tools, fails and
highlighting caps.
Highlighting devices comprising a hinged device into which an amount of
composition is placed
and then used to apply the composition to pre-determined /selected hair
strands may also be used.
Additional device technology can he used to assist in the penetration of the
product into the hair,
Examples of such technology include heating devices, ultraviolet light devices
and ultrasound
devices.

Method of hair dyeing
The hair coloring composition may be obtained by mixing immediately prior to
use at least one
tint (solid) composition and at least one developer (solid) composition. A
sufficient amount of
the mixture is applied to the hair, according to the hair abundance, generally
from about 60 to
about 250 grams, Upon such preparation the. composition is applied to the hair
to be dyed and
remains in contact with the hair for an amount of time effective to dye the
hair. Typically, the


CA 02799284 2012-12-19
34

hair dye composition is allowed to act on the hair from about 2 to about 60,
preferably about 15
to about 45, more preferably about 30 minutes, at a temperature ranging from
15 C to about 50
C. Thereafter, the hair is rinsed with water to remove the composition and
dried. If necessary,
the hair is washed with a shampoo and rinsed, e.g., with water or a weakly
acidic solution, such
as a citric acid or tartaric acid solution, and dried. Optionally, a separate
conditioning product
may also be provided.
fhe method of treating hair with the composition may therefore comprise the
steps of.
(i) providing at least one tint (solid) composition comprising --- when
dispersed/diluted/dissolved
in a solvent such as water to form a tint premix the gel network thickening
system and if
present an alkalizing agent and oxidative precursor dyes and/or direct dyes;
(ii) providing a developer (solid) composition comprising an oxidizing agent,
and optionally ---
dispersing>diluting/dissolving it in a solvent such as water to form a
developer premix;
(iii) mixing the developer (solid) composition or its premix with the dye
(solid) composition or
its premix to obtain a hair coloring composition;
(iv) applying the on-head composition for the oxidative dyeing of keratin
fibers onto the hair.
The glycerol can be comprised in the dye composition or the developer
composition or
distributed in both components. Typically glycerol will be at least Comprised
in the dye
composition to serve as solvent for the dyes.
The method may further comprise waiting a period of time, typically between 2
minutes and 60
minutes, and then rinsing the hair coloring composition from the hair. The
hair coloring
composition can be applied on hair via applicator bottle or brush. It can be
used on full head or
partly on single strands (highlight application) as common highlight
applicator foils, caps and
special applicators can be used, but also freehand techniques such as
balayage, with brush and/or
combs can be possible. The composition can also be applied as a mousse via a
manual spray, a
pressurized container or an aerosol mousse. The composition may be dispensed
as a solid form to
which water is added to generate the oxidant and form a thickened vehicle
suitable for hair
coloring,
