Abstract

Technologies are generally described for a method and compounds for managing dag on hair. The method of managing dag on hair includes applying a low energy compound including a silicone and a terminal reactive group to the hair and applying a hair binding moiety to the hair for functionalizing the low energy compound, at its terminal reactive group, to bind to the hair. The applied low energy compound enables ease of removal of dag from the hair or mitigation of dag formation on the hair. The functionalized low energy compound may be made prior to the application to the hair.

Claims (30)

1. A method of managing dag formation on hair, the method comprising:

applying a low energy compound to the hair, wherein the low energy compound comprises silicone and a terminal reactive group, wherein the silicone is represented by the chemical structure:

wherein n=10-100;

applying a hair binding moiety to the hair, wherein the hair binding moiety functionalizes the low energy compound at its terminal reactive group, and enables the functionalized low energy compound to bind to the hair, and wherein the hair binding moiety is R′—X, wherein R′ represents hypoxanthine and X═Br.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the applying a low energy compound comprises applying a powder to the hair.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the low energy compound is:

wherein n=10-100.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the terminal reactive group is amino.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein terminal reactive group is R—NH 2 , wherein R is the low energy compound comprising silicone.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the functionalized low energy compound comprises a linkage between the low energy compound and the hair binding moiety, R—NH—C(═O)—NH—R′ wherein R is the low energy compound comprising silicone and R′ represents hypoxanthine.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the functionalized low energy compound is:

wherein n=10-100.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the functionalized low energy compound is selected from the group consisting of:

wherein n=10-100.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the binding the functionalized low energy compound to the hair comprises polar or covalently bonding the hair binding moiety to the hair.

10. A method of managing dag on hair comprising:

adding a low energy compound mono-aminopropyl terminated poly dimethylsiloxane, to a container;

adding a hair binding moiety, 2-bromohypoxanthine to the container;

adding a solvent to the container and stirring to form a solution; and

applying the solution to the hair to enable ease of removal of dag from the hair or mitigation of dag formation on the hair.

11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising adding diisopropylethylamine to the solution.

12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the solvent comprises at least one of methanol, water, and toluene.

13. The method of claim 10 , further comprising separating a functionalized low energy compound from the solution, performed prior to applying the solution to the hair.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein separating a functionalized low energy compound from the solution comprises evaporating the solvent from the solution.

15. A method of managing dag formation on hair, the method comprising:

mixing a low energy compound with a hair binding moiety to form a solution, and applying the solution to the hair, wherein the low energy compound comprises silicone and a terminal reactive group, wherein the silicone is represented by the chemical structure:

wherein n=10-100;

wherein the hair binding moiety functionalizes the low energy compound at its terminal reactive group, and enables the functionalized low energy compound to bind to the hair; and wherein the hair binding moiety is R′—X, wherein R′ represents hypoxanthine and X═Br.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the applying the solution to the hair comprises spraying the solution onto the hair.

17. The method of claim 15 , wherein the solution is a shampoo, an aqueous solution, or an organic solvent solution.
