HAIF; CARE COMPOSITIONS
:>
1 Ci
The present invention relates to hair care compositions. In particular, it
relates to
hair care compositions which give good conditioning/shine to the hair with
reduced feelings of tackiness rind greasiness.
15 Background to the Invention
Hair is often subjected to a wide variety of insults that can cause damage.
These
include shampooing, rinsing, drying, heating, combing, styling, perming,
colouring, exposure to the elements etc. Thus the hair is often in a dry,
rough,
20 lusterless or frizzy condition due to abrasion of the hair surface and
removal of
the hair's natural oils and other natural conditioning and moisturizing
components.
A variety of approaches have been developed to alleviate these conditions.
25 These include the use of ultra mild shampoo compositions, the use of hair
conditioning shampoos which attempt to both cleanse and condition the hair
from
a single product and the use of hair conditioning formulations such as rinse-
off
and leave-on products.
30 Leave-on hair care formulations provide added advantages over the other
approaches. For example, leave-on formulations are more cost effective and
work for a longer duration because the conditioning ingredients remain on the

CA 02335036 2000-12-12
WO 00/06103 PCT/US99/06115
7
hair. They are more convenient because the consumer can use the product at
any time and does not have to wait to rinse the product. Also, the product may
be applied to the parts of the hair most in need of the conditioning benefits.
Cationic polysaccharides are well known in the art for providing conditioning
benefits. See, for example, WO-A-97/35542, WO-A-97/35545, WO-A-97/35546,
all of which describe the use of cationic polysaccharides in conditioning
shampoo
compositions. GB-A-2,211,192 describes the use of cationic polysaccharides in
a rinse-off conditioning composition. DE-A-4,326,866 describes a composition
for use prior to cutting of the hair that comprises a cationic polysaccharide.
JP-
54 138 133 describes hair product compositions containing polypeptides and
cationic celluloses. However, these cationic polysaccharides are also known to
cause stickiness or tackiness. This can lead to the consumer feeling the hair
is
dirty or greasy, especially with leave-on conditioning compositions where
there is
no rinsing step.
It has now been surprisingly found that cationic polymer having a cationic
charge
density of greater than 1.5meq/g and a weight average molecular weight of
greater than about 900,000 provide improved shine/conditioning benefits to the
hair with reduced tackiness and greasiness.
While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the high cationic
charge density makes the polymer more substantive to the hair providing good
conditioning benefits. The cationic groups interact with the negative charge
on
the hair. Binding sites occur more frequently due to the increased frequency
of
said cationic groups along the polymer. The more frequent interactions may
'pull'
the polymer backbone into closer association with the hair fibre thus reducing
the
depth of the hydrocarbon layer and reducing its tendency to interact with
other
surfaces such as skin on the fingers. Hence, there is a reduced feeling of
tackiness and, due to the close association of polymer and hair, an enhanced
shine.

Summary of the Invention
According to the present invention there is provided a hair care composition
comprising cationic polymer with a charge density of greater than about
1.5meq/g and a weight average molecular weight of greater than about 800,000.
The compositions of the present invention have reduced tackiness and
greasiness while delivering good conditioninglshine benefits.
All concentrations and ratios herein are by weight of the hair care
composition,
unless otherwise specified.
All averages are weight averages unless otherwise specified.
~15 Detaile:d Description of the Invention
The hair care compositions .of the present invention comprise cationic polymer
which will be described in more detail below. Generally, the compositions of
the
present invention will comprise less than about 5% preferably less than about
2%, by weight, of anionic suri~actant.
As used herein the terms "tacky" and "tackiness" means the adhesive feeling of
the hair after the application of some hair care compositions.
:?5 As used herein the term "leave-on" means a hair care composition that is
intended to be used without a rinsing step. Therefore, leave-on compositions
will
generally be left on the hair until the consumer next washes their hair as
part of
their cleansing regimen. Leave-on will generally comprise less than about 5%
of
anionic surfactant and will generally comprise less than 5% of non-ionic
:i0 surfactant.

Cationic Polymer
An essential feature of the compositions of the present invention is that they
comprise a cationic polymer. The cationic polymers of the present compositions
have a cationic charge density of greater than about 1.5meq/g, preferably
greater
than about 1.6 meq/g, more preferably greater than about 1.7meq/g, even more
preferably greater than about 1.8meq/g. Generally the cationic polymers will
have a cationic charge density of less than about 5meq/g, preferably less than
about 3.5meq/g, more preferably less than about 2.5meqlg, even more
preferably less than about 2.2meq/g.
The "cationic charge density" of a polymer refers to the ratio of the number
of
positive charges on a monomeric unit of which the polymer is comprised to the
molecular weight of said monomeric unit, i.e.:
number of positive charges
Cationic Charge Density =
monomeric unit molecular weight
The cationic charge density of the cationic polymers herein can be determined
using the Kjeldahl Method (United States Pharmacopoeia - Chemical tests -
<461> Nitrogen Determination - method II). Those skilled in the art will
recognise
that the charge density of some of the polymers herein may vary depending upon
pH and the isoelectric point of the cationic charge groups. The charge density
should be within the above limits at the pH of intended use.
The cationic polymers of the present invention have a molecular weight of
greater than about 900,000, preferably greater than about 1 million. Generally
the cationic polymers of the present invention will have a molecular weight of
less
than about 3 million, preferably less than about 2.2 million, more preferably
less
than about 1.8 million, even more preferably less than about 1.5 million.

The cationic polymers of the present invention generally comprise from about 1
to about 10%, preferably frorn about 2% to about 5%, more preferably from
about
2.3% to about 3%, even more preferably from about 2.5% to about 2..9%, by
weight, of cationic nitrogen.
The concentration of the cationic polymers should be sufficient to provide the
desired conditioning benefits. Such concentrations generally range from about
0.001 % to about 20%, preferably from about 0.005% to about 10%, more
preferably from about 0.01 ~% to about 2%, even more preferably from about
0.05% to about 1 %, by weight, of the total composition.
The cationic polymers of the present invention are preferably water-soluble.
By
"water soluble" cationic polymer, what is meant is a polymer which is
sufficiently
soluble in water to form a substantially clear solution to the naked eye at a
concentration of 0.1 % in water (distilled or equivalent) at 25°C.
Preferably, the
polymer will be sufficiently soluble to form a substantially clear sohtion at
0.5%
concentration, more preferably at 1.0% concentration.
As used herein, the term "~poiymer" shall include materials whether made by
polymerization of one type of monomer or made by two (i.e., copolymers) or
more types of monomers.
Any anionic counterions can be utilized for the cationic polymers so long as
the
water solubility criteria is met. Suitable counterions include halides {e.g."
CI, Br,
I, or F, preferably Cl, Br, or I), sulfate, and methylsulfate. Others can also
be
used, as this list is not exclusive.
The cationic nitrogen-containing moiety will be present generally as a
substituent,
on a fraction of the total monomer units of the cationic hair conditioning
polymers.
Thus, the cationic polymer can comprise copolymers, terpoiymers, etc. of
quaternary ammonium or cationic amine-substituted monomer units and other
non-cationic units referred to herein as spacer monomer units. Such polymers

Amine-substituted vinyl monomers can be polymerised in the amine form, and
then optionally can be converted to ammonium by a quaternization reaction.
Amines can also be similarly quaternized subsequent to formation of the
polymer. For example, tertiary amine functionalities can be quaternized by
reaction with a salt of the formula R'X wherein R' is a short chain alkyl,
preferably
a C1-C7 alkyl, more preferably a C1-C3 alkyl, and X is an anion which forms a
water soluble salt with the quatemized ammonium.

As discussed above, the cationic polymer hereof is water soluble. This does
not
mean, however, that it must be soluble in the composition. Preferably however,
the cationic polymer is either soluble in the composition, or in a complex
coacervate phase in the composition formed by the cationic polymer and anionic
material. Complex coacervates of the cationic polymer can be formed with

Silicone resins are highly cross-linked siloxane systems where the
crosslinking is
5 introduced through the incorporation of trifunctional and tetrafunctional
silanes
with monofunctional or difunctional, or both, silanes during manufacture of
the
silicone resin. As is well understood in the art, the degree of crosslinking
that is
required in order to result in a silicone resin will vary according to the
specific
silane units incorporated into the silicone resin. In general, silicone
materials
10 which have a sufficient level of trifunctional and tetrafunctional siloxane
monomer
units (and hence, a sufficient level of crosslinking) such that they dry down
to a
rigid, or hard, film are considered to be silicone resins. The ratio of oxygen
atoms to silicor~ atoms is indicative of the level of crosslinking in a
particular
silicone material. Silicone materials which have at least about 1.1 oxygen
atoms
per silicon atom will generally be silicone resins herein. Preferably, the
ratio of
oxygen:silicon atoms is at least about 1.2:1Ø Silanes used in the
manufacture
of silicone resins include monomethyl, dimethyl, trimethyi, monophenyl,
Biphenyl,
methylphenyl, ethylphenyl, propylphenyl, monovinyl, and
methylvinylchlorosilanes, and tetrachlorosifane.

about
10%, preferably from about 0.005% to about 5%, more preferably from about
0.01 % to about 2%, even more preferably from about 0.1 % to about 1 %, by

Any polysiloxane resin suitable for use in hair care compositions may be used
herein including those possessing hydrogen, hydroxy, alkyl, aryl, alkoxy,
alkaryl,
arylalkyl arylalkoxy, alkaryloxy and alkamino substituents. However, preferred
polysifoxane resins have at least one substituent group possessing delocalised
electrons. This substituent can be selected from alkyl, aryl, alkoxy, alkaryl,
arylalkyl arylalkoxy, alkaryloxy, and combinations thereof. Preferred are
aryl,
arylalkyl and alkaryl substituents. More preferred are alkaryl and aryialkyl

WO 00/06103 PCT/US99/06115
11
substituents. Even more preferred are alkaryl substituents, particularly 2-
phenyl
propyl. Whereas it is preferred that at least one substituent have delocalised
electrons, the resins herein will also generally have other substituents
without
delocalised electrons. Such other substituents can include hydrogen, hydroxyl,
~~ alkyl, alkoxy, amino functionalities and mixtures thereof. Preferred are
alkyl
substituents, especially methyl substituents.
As used herein the term "aryl" means a functionality containing one or more
homocyclic or , heterocyciic rings. The aryl functionalities herein can be
1U unsubstituted or substituted and generally contain from 3 to 16 carbon
atoms.
Preferred aryl groups include, but are not limited to, phenyl, naphthyl,
cyclopentadienyl, anthracyl, pyrene, pyridine, pyrimidine
As used herein the term "alkyl"' means a saturated or unsaturated, substituted
or
1:. unsubstituted, straight or branched-chain, hydrocarbon having from 1 to 10
carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 4 carbon atoms. The term "alkyl" therefore
includes alkenyls having from 2 to 8, preferably 2 to 4, carbons and alkynyls
having from 2 to 8, preferably :? to 4, carbons. Preferred alkyl groups
include, but
are not limited to, methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, and butyl. More
preferred are
2U methyl, ethyl and propyl.
As used herein the term "alkaryl" means a substituent comprising an alkyl
moiety
and an aryl moiety wherein the alkyl moiety is bonded to the siloxane resin.
2~~ As used herein the term "arylalkyl" means a substituent comprising an aryl
moiety and an alkyl moiety wherein the aryl moiety is bonded to the siloxane
resin.
Silicone materials and silicone resins in particular, can conveniently be
identified
30 according to a shorthand nomenclature system well known to those skilled in
the
art as "MDTQ" nomenclature;. Under this system, the silicone is described
according to presence of variious siloxane monomer units which make up the

CA 02335036 2000-12-12
WO 00!06103 PCT/US99/06115
12
silicone. Briefly, the symbol M denotes the monofunctional unit (CH3)3Si00,5;
D
denotes the difunctional unit (CH3)2Si0; T denotes the trifunctional unit
(CH3)Si01.5; and Q denotes the quadri- or tetra-functional unit Si02. Primes
of
the unit symbols, e.g., M', D', T', and Q' denote siloxane units with one or
more
substituents other than methyl, and must be specifically defined for each
occurrence. Therefore, the preferred polysiloxane resins for use herein have
at
least one M', D', T' or Q' functionality that possesses a substituent group
with
delocalised electrons. Preferred substituents are as defined hereinabove. The
molar ratios of the various units, either in terms of subscripts to the
symbols
indicating the total number of each type of unit in the silicone (or an
average
thereof) or as specifically indicated ratios in combination with molecular
weight
complete the description of the silicone material under the MDTQ system.
Preferred polysiloxane resins for use herein are MQ and M'Q resins, more
preferred are M'Q resins especially M'6Q3, M'8Q4. M',oQs, M',2Q6 resins and

Ingredients A are solubilized in water and then heated to 80°C. All of
ingredients
C are then added and the resulting mixture cooled by recirculation to
30°C
through a plate heat exchanger with simultaneous high shear mixing. Batch
Cooling rate is maintained at between 1.0 and 1.5°C/min. All of
ingredients D are
then added and 50% of ingredient E, the triethanolamine. This mixture is then
stirred until homogenous. Ingredient B is then solubilized in water and added
to
the main mix. This mixture is then subjected to high shear mixing until
homogenous particle size distribution is achieved. Recirculation is then
stopped
to prevent shear stress damage to product during completion of neutralisation.
The remaining ingredient E, triethanolamine, is added until the specified pH
and
viscosity is achieved.
