Abstract

The present invention relates to a series of novel silicone polyesters which are prepared by crosslinking an fluoro dimethicone copolyol with a dimer acid. The reaction of the fluoro dimethicone copolyol and dimer acid results in a polyester having affinity to oils and that is highly lubricious on hair, skin and textile fiber.

Claims (44)

1 . A polyester made by esterification reaction of:

(a) a dimer acid source selected from

dimer acid conforming to the following structure:

or hydrogenated dimer acid conforming to the following structure:

or mixtures thereof;

with

(b) a dimethicone copolyol conforming to the following structure:

wherein;

R 1 is —(CH 2 ) 3 —O—(CH 2 CH 2 —O) x —(CH 2 CH(CH 3 )O) y —CH 2 CH 2 O) z OH;

R 2 is —(CH 2 ) 2 —(CF 2 ) 8 —CF 3 ;

a is an integer ranging from 0 to 200;

b is an integer ranging from 2 to 20;

c is an integer ranging from 1 to 20;

d is an integer ranging from 7 to 31;

x, y and z are independently integers ranging from 0 to 20.

2 . A polyester of claim 1 wherein said esterification reaction is conducted at a temperature of between 120° C. and 200° C. for five to 10 hours.

3 . A polyester of claim 1 wherein said dimer acid source is dimer acid.

4 . A polyester of claim 1 wherein said dimer acid source is hydrogenated dimer acid.

5 . A polyester of claim 1 wherein a is an integer ranging from 10 to 50.

6 . A polyester of claim 1 wherein x, y and z each range from 5 to 10.

7 . A polyester of claim 1 wherein y is 0.

8 . A polyester of claim 1 wherein a ranges from 10 to 50, x ranges from 8 to 10 and y is 0.

9 . A process for conditioning hair skin and fiber which comprises contacting the hair skin of fiber with an effective conditioning concentration of a polyester made by the reaction of:

(a) a dimer acid source selected from

dimer acid conforming to the following structure:

or hydrogenated dimer acid conforming to the following structure:

or mixtures thereof;

with

(b) an fluoro dimethicone copolyol conforming to the following structure:

wherein;

R 1 is —(CH 2 ) 3 —O—(CH 2 CH 2 —O) x —(CH 2 CH(CH 3 )O) y —CH 2 CH 2 O) z OH;

R 2 is —(CH 2 ) 2 —(CF 2 )8—CF 3 ;

a is an integer ranging from 0 to 200;

b is an integer ranging from 2 to 20;

c is an integer ranging from 1 to 20;

d is an integer ranging from 7 to 31;

x, y and z are independently integers ranging from 0 to 20.

10 . A process of claim 9 wherein said effective conditioning concentration ranges between 0.1 and 10% by weight.

11 . A process of claim 9 wherein said dimer acid source is dimer acid.

12 . A process of claim 9 wherein said dimer acid source is hydrogenated dimer acid.

13 . A process of claim 9 wherein a ranges from 10 to 50.

14 . A process of claim 9 wherein x, y and z each range from 5 to 10.

15 . A process of claim 9 wherein y is 0.

16 . A process of claim 9 wherein a ranges from 10 to 50, x ranges from 8 to 10 and y is 0.
