Description
Background of the Invention
The present invention relates to washing and/or conditioning compositions for keratinous materials, especially hair, based on a silicone containing a hydroxyacylamino functional group and on substantive polymers, as well as to processes for the treatment of these materials using such compositions.
It is well known that hair is sensitised or weakened to various degrees by the action of atmospheric agents such as the sun or bad weather as well as by the action of various cosmetic treatments such as permanent waves, hair straightenings, dyeings or bleachings. The hair then becomes difficult to disentangle and to style. Moreover, it is rough to the touch and lacks softness.
For this reason, washing and/or conditioning compositions for keratinous materials are looked for which would be able to confer, especially on fibres such as hair, good disentangling properties combined with good softness properties.
Shampooing compositions containing a substantive polymer have already been used in the past. These compositions are known to improve hair disentangling.
Shampooing compositions are also known containing silicones which generally give good softness properties to hair.
Moreover, compositions containing silicones and polymers, especially cationic polymers, are known.
However, these compositions were shown to be unsatisfactory in conferring all the desired disentangling and softening characteristics on the treated keratinous materials, especially on hair.
Summary of the Invention
The Applicant has discovered, which is the subject of the invention, that the employment of a particular silicone containing a hydroxyacylamino functional group and of a substantive polymer in a surface-active detergent base led to disentangling and softness properties superior to those obtained with each of the constituents taken separately in the same base and at the total concentration of the combination.
Moreover, it was noted that this combination led to improved disentangling and softness properties, especially on hair, in relation to the properties which could be obtained with the combinations known in the state of the art.
These compositions, in their preferred embodiment, contain suspending agents, other than alcohols having 27 to 44 carbon atoms and containing one or two ether and/or thioether or sulphoxide groups.
The subject of the invention is thus a washing and/or conditioning composition for keratinous materials which contains at least one silicone with a hydroxyacylamino functional group, at least one substantive polymer, at least one surface-active detergent agent and optionally some suspending agents for silicones.
Another subject of the invention is a process for washing and/or conditioning keratinous materials, in particular hair, using such a composition.
Other subjects of the invention will appear in the course of the description and the examples which follow.
Description of the Invention
The washing and/or conditioning composition for keratinous materials, in accordance with the invention, is essentially characterised in that it contains, in an aqueous medium, at least one silicone containing a hydroxyacylamino functional group, at least one substantive polymer and at least one surface-active agent having detergent properties.
The silicone containing a hydroxyacylamino functional group is chosen especially from the compounds corresponding to the formula: ##STR1## in which: R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 denote (CH.sub.2).sub.2, (CH.sub.2).sub.3, (CH.sub.2).sub.4 or --CH.sub.2 CH(CH.sub.3)CH.sub.2 --;
R.sub.3 denotes hydrogen, hydroxyl, alkyl or hydroxyalkyl;
n is an integer varying from 2 to 7;
x is an integer varying from 20 to approximately 1,500;
y varies between approximately 0.5 and 10;
and the y/x ratio is less than 0.05.
Such silicones are more particularly described in European Patent Application EP-A-0342834.
A more particularly preferred silicone of the formula (I) is that corresponding to formula (I), in which:
R.sub.1 denotes --CH.sub.2 CH(CH.sub.3)CH.sub.2 --;
R.sub.2 denotes --(CH.sub.2).sub.2 --;
R.sub.3 denotes hydrogen;

y is equal to 8;
n is equal to 3.
Such silicones are sold in particular under the name Q2-8413 by the Company Dow Corning.

A "substantive polymer" means a polymer which can be made visible with the help of the acid dye Red 80 according to Richard J. Crawford, Journal of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists, 1980 31 (5), pages 273 to 278.

The process for washing and/or conditioning keratinous materials such as the hair and/or the skin, consists in applying, to these damp materials, any one of the compositions defined above and in proceeding, preferably, to a rinsing after their application.
The following examples are intended to illustrate the invention without being of a limiting nature.
