Abstract

This invention relates to hair conditioning formulations comprising at least one aminofunctional polyorganosiloxane. Furthermore, the invention relates to the use of these formulations for the treatment of keratin-containing fibers, preferably human hair.

Claims (35)

1. A hair conditioning formulation comprising at least one aminofunctional polyorganosiloxane of formula (I)

wherein

R, R 1 , R 2 and R 3 independently from each other are CH 3 , OH or OC 1 -C 4 alkyl,

wherein the ratio x:y is from 1:20 to 1:80,

which contains 0.1% by weight or less of hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane, less than 0.5% by weight of octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane and less than 1.0% by weight of decamethylcyclopentasiloxane, and

a diluent that is physiologically acceptable for contact with the human body when used in a cosmetic composition, wherein the conditioning formulation is selected from the group consisting of shampoo, hair conditioner, hair pretreatment product, hair tonic, hair styling cream, hair styling gel, pomade, hair rinse, deep conditioning treatment, intensive hair conditioning treatment, hair setting product, hair straightening product, liquid hair fixative, hair foam, hair spray, temporary, semi-temporary, permanent hair dye, a product containing self-oxidizing dyes and a product containing natural hair dyes.

2. A hair conditioning formulation according to claim 1 , comprising from 0.05% to 10% by weight of the at least one aminofunctional polyorganosiloxane of formula (I), based on the total amount of the hair conditioning formulation.

3. A hair conditioning formulation according to claim 2 , comprising from 0.1% to 8% by weight of the at least one aminofunctional polyorganosiloxane of formula (I), based on the total amount of the hair conditioning formulation.

4. A hair conditioning formulation according to claim 2 , comprising from 0.1% to 5% by weight of the at least one aminofunctional polyorganosiloxane of formula (I), based on the total amount of the hair conditioning formulation.

5. A conditioning shampoo comprising

a) 0.05 to 10 wt-%, based on the total weight of the formulation, of at least one aminofunctional polyorganopolysiloxane of formula (I),

wherein a ratio x:y is from 1:20 to 1:80,

R, R 1 , R 2 and R 3 independently from each other are CH 3 , OH or OC 1 -C 4 alkyl,

which contains 0.1% by weight or less of hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane, less than 0.5% by weight of octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane and less than 1.0% by weight of decamethylcyclopentasiloxane

b) 5 to 30 wt-%, based on the total weight of the formulation, of at least one non-ionic, and/or an anionic and/or an amphoteric surfactant,

c) 0.2 to 5 wt-% of at least one thickener,

d) 0-5 wt-% of at least one further additive, and

e) water up to 100 wt-%.

6. A conditioning shampoo according to claim 5 comprising

a) 0.1 to 8 wt-%, based on the total weight of the formulation, of at least one aminofunctional polyorganosiloxane of formula (I)

b) 10 to 20 wt-% based on the total weight of the formulation, of at least one non-ionic, and/or an anionic and/or an amphoteric surfactant.

7. A hair conditioner comprising

a) 0.05 to 10 wt-%, based on the total weight of the formulation, of at least one aminofunctional polyorganosiloxane of formula (I),

wherein x:y is a ratio from 1:20 to 1:80,

R, R 1 , R 2 and R 3 independently from each other are CH 3 , OH or OC 1 -C 4 alkyl,

which contains 0.1% by weight or less of hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane, less than 0.5% by weight of octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane and less than 1.0% by weight of decamethylcyclopentasiloxane

b) 0.5 to 5 wt-%, based on the total weight of the formulation, of at least one long chain fatty alcohol,

c) at least one skin compatible acid in an amount sufficient to obtain a pH between 2.5 and 5.5,

d) 0 to 5 wt-%, based on the total weight of the formulation, of at least one further additive, and

e) water up to 100 wt-%.

8. A hair conditioner according to claim 7 comprising

a) 0.1 to 8 wt-%, based on the total weight of the formulation, of at least one aminofunctional polyorganosiloxane of formula (I)

b) 1 to 4 wt-%, based on the total weight of the formulation, of at least one long chain fatty alcohol,

c) at least one skin compatible acid in an amount sufficient to obtain a pH between 3-5.

9. A method for the treatment of hair comprising the step contacting the hair with a hair conditioning formulation according to claim 1 .
