Description
The present invention relates to new copolymers and particularly to tetrapolymers, pentapolymers or higher polymers which are usefully employed in the production of cosmetic compositions such as hair lacquer or hair setting lotion compositions.
It is known that natural or synthetic resins, most often solubilized in a hydroalcoholic or alcoholic cosmetic carrier, are currently employed to provide hair lacquer or hair setting lotion compositions.
Representative resins and polymers used up to now include, in particular, polyvinylpyrrolidone, copolymers of vinylpyrrolidone and vinyl acetate, copolymers of acrylic esters and unsaturated monocarboxylic acid, copolymers of maleic anhydride and vinyl alkyl ether, copolymers resulting from the copolymerization of vinyl acetate, crotonic acid and other unsaturated monomers such as vinyl esters having from 13-25 carbon atoms and allyl or methallyl esters having from 14 to 27 carbon atoms, as well as copolymers of vinyl acetate, crotonic acid and branched vinyl esters having at least 7 carbon atoms.
With regard to these latter polymers, the copolymers of the present invention exhibit numerous advantages.
First, the copolymers of the present invention can be obtained in a more economical manner and with great purity. Moreover, it is possible in accordance with this invention to obtain polymers having a molecular weight clearly lower than those previously produced, without it being necessary to use chain regulating agents. This is quite desirable when the copolymer is to be used in cosmetics especially since it has been observed that when such chain regulating agents are employed the resulting copolymer is often contaminated to the point where its use in cosmetic compositions is virtually excluded because of residual odors or because of parasitic reactions which occur between such chain regulated polymers and other components in cosmetic compositions.
Although other methods have been known to regulate the polymer chain, i.e. mass or suspension polymerization which employs significant quantities of initiators, or solution polymerization, these methods are difficult to put into practice and are less economical than the process of the present invention.
According to the present invention, the polymerization of the different comonomers provides, without having to have recourse to chain regulating means, copolymers having a molecular weight not exceeding 40,000 and such copolymers in the cosmetic field exhibit significantly quite better qualities than those previously described and currently used in this field.
In effect, the copolymers according to the present invention have, in addition to the cosmetic qualities required for all hair lacquers or hair setting lotions, the long sought after characteristic of being easily removed by brushing and combing of the hair.
Finally the copolymers of the present invention exhibit excellent solubility in alcohols, such as ethyl or isopropyl alcohol, thereby enabling a reduction, in significant proportions, of the quantity of this type of solvent in the ultimate cosmetic formulation.
The present invention is thus related to an industrial product which comprises a copolymer resulting from the copolymerization of
a. an unsaturated acid having the formula
wherein
n = 0 or 1, and
when n = 0, R = CH.sub.3 and
when n = 1, R = H,
b. a vinyl ester of the formula ##EQU5## wherein R is --CH.sub.3 or --C.sub.2 H.sub.5,
c. at least one branched allyl or methallyl ester of the formula ##EQU6## wherein R' represents hydrogen or --CH.sub.3, R.sub.1 represents a saturated hydrocarbon chain, linear or branched, having 1-6 carbon atoms and R.sub.2 represents --CH.sub.3 or --CH(CH.sub.3).sub.2, with the proviso that the sum of the number of the carbon atoms in R.sub.1 + R.sub.2 is equal to or less than 7 and
d. a monomer selected from the group consisting of
i. a vinyl ether of the formula
wherein R.sub.3 is linear or branched alkyl having 1-12 carbon atoms,
ii. a vinyl ester having a fatty chain of the formula ##EQU7## wherein R.sub.4 is linear alkyl having 7-11 carbon atoms, and iii. a linear allyl or methallyl ester of the formula ##EQU8## wherein R' is hydrogen or -CH.sub.3 and R.sub.5 is linear alkyl having 1-11 carbon atoms.
Further, in accordance with the present invention the said copolymers result from the copolymerization of 2-15, preferably 4-12, weight percent of the unsaturated acid of formula (I), 55-89.5, preferably 65-85, weight percent of the vinyl ester of formula (II), 8-20, preferably 10-17, weight percent of at least one allyl or methallyl ester of formula (III) and 0.5-10, preferably 1-6, weight percent of the monomer selected from the vinyl ether of formula (IV), the vinyl ester of formula (V) or the allyl or methallyl ester of formula (VI).
Representative unsaturated acids of formula I include crotonic acid and allyloxyacetic acid.
Representative vinyl esters of formula II include vinyl acetate and vinyl propionate.
Representative branched allyl or methallyl esters of formula III include allyl dimethyl propanoate, methallyl dimethyl propanoate, allyl 2,2-dimethyl pentanoate, methallyl 2,2-dimethyl pentanoate, allyl 2,2-dimethyl hexanoate, methallyl 2,2-dimethyl hexanoate, allyl 2,2-dimethyl octanoate, methallyl 2,2-dimethyl octanoate, allyl 2-isopropyl-2,3-dimethyl butyrate and methallyl 2-isopropyl-2,3-dimethyl butyrate.
Representative vinyl ethers of formula (IV) include methyl vinyl ether, ethyl vinyl ether, isopropyl vinyl ether, tertio-butyl vinyl ether, octyl vinyl ether and dodecyl vinyl ether.
Representative vinyl esters having a fatty chain of formula (V) include vinyl octanoate, vinyl decanoate and vinyl dodecanoate.
Representative linear allyl or methallyl esters of formula (VI) include allyl acetate, methallyl acetate, allyl octanoate, methallyl octanoate, allyl decanoate, methallyl decanoate, allyl dodecanoate and methallyl dodecanoate.
The copolymers of the present invention have, preferably, a molecular weight ranging between about 15,000 and 40,000.
In a particular embodiment of the present invention the copolymers are crosslinked with the aid of a crosslinking agent present in an amount between 0.1-1.2 weight percent.
Representative crosslinking agents that can be used include diallylether diethylene glycol, tetra allyloxyethane, triallyl ether of trimethylol propane, the diacrylates or dimethacrylates of diols such as ethylene glycol.
Crosslinking of the copolymers is particularly recommended when it is desired to obtain copolymers having a higher viscosity.
The present invention has also for an object a new industrial product comprising the copolymers described above, the acid function of which is neutralized with the aid of an organic base such as monoethanol amine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, isopropanolamine, morpholine, as well as certain amino alcohols, such as 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol and 2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol.
In accordance with the present invention, the copolymers can advantageously be neutralized with one of the bases mentioned above in a quantity equal, for example, to 10-150 percent and preferably from 50-120 percent of the quantity corresponding to stoichiometric neutralization.
The copolymers according to the present invention can be prepared by liquid phase copolymerization, for example, in a solvent such as alcohol or benzene. However, it is preferable to carry out the polymerization reaction in mass, or in suspension, in a medium such as water.
The polymerization reaction can be effected in the presence of a polymerization catalyst such as benzoyl peroxide, lauroyl peroxide or azo bis isobutyronitrile, the concentration of the catalyst being between, for example, 0.5-6 percent, preferably between 1-4 percent by weight relative to the total weight of the monomers being reacted.
The polymerization in suspension which yields copolymers in the form of pearls is carried out as described above in water and in the presence of a protective colloid such as polyvinyl alcohol or polyacrylic acid or hydroxyethyl cellulose.
The concentration of the protective colloid can be, for example, between 0.1-1 percent by weight relative to the total weight of the monomers being polymerized.
The present invention also relates to a novel industrial product comprising a cosmetic composition characterized by the fact that it contains at least one copolymer, as defined above, optionally neutralized, in solution in an appropriate cosmetic vehicle or carrier.
The cosmetic composition in accordance with the present invention can be, for example, a hair lacquer present or not in the form of an aerosol, a hair setting lotion or a hair treating composition.
As an example, an aerosol hair lacquer composition can be produced by packaging under pressure in an aerosol container, 1-4 weight percent of a copolymer of the present invention, optionally neutralized; 6-45 and preferably 8-25 weight percent of a lower alkanol; and 54-90 weight percent of a liquified gaseous propellant, such as dichlorodifluoromethane and trichlorofluoromethane and mixtures thereof.
Preferably the lower alkanol is ethyl or isopropyl alcohol.
A hair setting lotion composition, in accordance with the present invention, can be provided by introducing into a hydroalcoholic solution containing about 20-66 percent alcohol, 1-3 weight percent of a copolymer of the present invention. Preferably, the said copolymer is neutralized as disclosed above.
The cosmetic composition in accordance with the present invention can also contain conventional cosmetic adjuvants such as perfumes, dyes, preservatives, plasticizers, cationic products, non-ionic products, silicones to improve the brilliance or other cosmetic resins.
