Abstract

Disclosed is a hair conditioning composition comprising an organosilicon quaternary ammonium salt in an aqueous/organic solvent. Upon application, the composition imparts long-lasting conditioning to hair.

Claims

X is a halogen, sulfate, phosphate or carbonate;

R₁ is an alkyl radical of 1 to 4 carbon atoms;

R₂ is an aliphatic radical of 1 to 4 carbon atoms or an aromatic radical of 6 to 8 carbon atoms;

A is an aliphatic radical of 1 to 4 carbons or an aromatic radical of 6 to 8 carbons;

n is 1 to 6;

m is 1 to 18 and

z is 2 to 3;

(b) in an alkaline buffered aqueous/organic vehicle having a pH of about 8.0 to 10.0, said aqueous/organic vehicle comprises;

about 5 to 99% w/v of an organic solvent selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, polyoxyethylene octyl phenyl ether having the formula C₈ H₁₇ C₆ H₄ (OCH₂ CH₂)_n --OH, where n has an average value of 9, polyoxyethylene nonyl phenyl ether having the formula C₉ H₁₉ C₆ H₄ (OCH₂ CH₂)_n --OH, where n has an average value of 12, polypropylene glycol myristyl ether having the formula ##STR6## where n has an average value of 3, and acetylated polyoxyethylene lanolin alcohol with an average ethoxylation value of 9;

and about 1 to 95% w/v of water.

2. The hair conditioning composition of claim 1 wherein said hydrolyzable radical is methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, isopropoxy or butoxy.

3. The hair conditioning compositon of claim 1 wherein said halogen is chlorine, bromine or iodine.

10. A method of treating hair to render the same conditioned for an extended time period comprising:

a. cleaning the hair by shampooing;

b. applying to the hair an effective amount of the composition of claim 1;

c. permitting said composition to remain in contact with the hair for a time sufficient to condition said hair;

d. rinsing the hair free of the composition; and

, drying the hair.

4. A hair conditioning composition comprising:

(a) about 2.0 to 5.0% w/v of an organosilicon quaternary ammonium salt having the formula;

##STR7## wherein Y is a hydrolyzable radical selected from the group consisting of alkoxy, halogen or hydroxy;

X is a halogen or anion selected from the group consisting of sulfate, carbonate, or phosphate;

R₁ is an alkyl radical of 1 to 4 carbon atoms;

R₂ is an aliphatic radical of 1 to 4 carbon atoms or an aromatic radical of 6 to 8 carbon atoms;

A is an aliphatic radical of 1 to 4 carbons or an aromatic radical of 6 to 8 carbons;

n is 1 to 6;

m is 1 to 18; and

z is 2 to 3; and

(b) up to 98% w/v of an aqueous/alcohol vehicle buffered with a buffering agent having a pH of about 9, said aqueous/organic vehicle comprises;
