Composition comprising mixtures of isostearamide, glycerol ester and water
View Patent ↗The present invention is directed to compositions comprising a mixture comprising at least one isostearamide, at least one glycerol ester and water, and also to the use of these compositions as thickeners or shampoos, conditioners, shower gels, body cleaning compositions or skin cleaning compositions or for producing shampoos, conditioners, shower gels, body cleaning compositions or skin cleaning compositions.
1. A composition comprising a mixture which comprises at least one isostearamide, at least one glycerol ester and water, wherein the isostearamide is an amide condensation product of isostearic acid with 1-amino-2-propanol, and said isostearamide is present in an amount of 50 to 95% by weight of the mixture.
2. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the isostearamide is present in an amount of 70 to 90% by weight of the mixture.
3. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the mixture comprises, as the at least one glycerol ester, glycerol laurate.
4. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the fraction of the at least one glycerol ester in the mixture is from 1 to 45% by weight, based on the total weight of the mixture.
5. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the fraction of water in the mixture is from 1 to 15% by weight, based on the total weight of the mixture.
6. A thickening composition consisting of at least one isostearamide, at least one glycerol ester, and water, wherein the isostearamide is an amide condensation product of isostearic acid with 1-amino-2-propanol.
7. The thickening composition according to claim 6 , wherein said at least one glycerol ester is glycerol laurate and/or glycerol caprylate/caprate.
8. The thickening composition according to claim 7 , wherein the fraction of water in the composition is greater than 35% by weight.
9. A shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, body cleaning composition or skin cleaning composition comprising the composition according to claim 1 .
10. A process for producing the composition according to claim 7 , comprising mixing the composition with one or more further components.
11. The process according to claim 10 , wherein the composition is mixed with water and one or more further components, where at least sufficient water is mixed in for the fraction of the water in the overall composition to be greater than 35% by weight.
12. The composition according to claim 3 , wherein said glycerol laurate is glycerol monolaurate.
13. The thickening composition according to claim 6 , wherein said isostearamide is present in an amount of 50 to 95% by weight of the composition.
14. The thickening composition according to claim 6 , wherein said isostearamide is present in an amount of 70 to 90% by weight of the composition.
15. The thickening composition according to claim 6 , wherein said at least one glycerol ester is present in an amount of 1 to 45% by weight of the composition.
