Hair conditioning composition

摘要

Provided is a low odor hair conditioning composition which is free of oily and greasy feel upon finish, and can impart good manageability and moisturized feel. Specifically provided is a hair conditioning composition including a component (A): a compound represented by a general formula (1) R1O—(PO)n/(EO)m—R2 (1), where R1 represents a straight or branched, alkyl or alkenyl group having 8 to 12 carbon atoms, PO represents a propyleneoxy group, EO represents an ethyleneoxy group, an average addition mole number “n” represents a number of 1.5 to 3.0, an average addition mole number “m” represents a number of 0 to 1.0, and R2 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; and a component (B): a surfactant other than the component (A), wherein a content of R1OH, where R1 represents a straight or branched, alkyl or alkenyl group having 8 to 12 carbon atoms, is 80 ppm or less.

主权项

1. A method of conditioning hair, which comprises:
washing said hair; applying a hair conditioning composition to said hair; and drying said hair without rinsing, wherein the applied composition comprises a content of R1OH, where R1 represents a straight or branched, alkyl or alkenyl group having 8 to 12 carbon atoms, is 30 ppm or less, based on the composition, and the following components (A) and (B): wherein component (A) is a compound represented by formula (1)
R1O—(PO)n/(EO)m—R2   (1)wherein
R1 represents a straight or branched, alkyl or alkenyl group having 8 to 12 carbon atoms, PO represents a propyleneoxy group, EO represents an ethyleneoxy group, an average addition mole number “n” represents a number of 1.5 to 3.0, an average addition mole number “m” represents a number of 0 to 1.0, and R2 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; and component (B) is at least one non-ionic surfactant or cationic surfactant, wherein the non-ionic surfactant comprises polyoxyalkylene alkylether, and the cationic surfactant comprises a quaternary ammonium salt type cationic surfactant represented by formula (2) wherein one or two of R3, R4, R5, and R6 each represent a hydrocarbon group having 12 to 25 total carbon atoms, which may be interrupted with a functional group represented by —O—, —CONH—, NHCO—, —OCO—, or —COO—, or may be substituted with —OH and the remainder of R3, R4, R5, and R6 each independently represent an alkyl or a hydroxyalkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or a polyoxyethylene group, and X represents a halide ion or an organic anion, wherein a weight ratio of the component (A) to the component (B), (A)/(B), ranges from 1/5 to 5/1, component (A) is present in an amount of 0.1 to 7% by weight, and component (B) is present in an amount of 0.1 to 7% by weight.
