Poly cationic compounds

摘要

The present invention relates to a novel class of polymeric compounds having specific quaternized amine based upon a dimer acid reacted with a combination of a monohydroxy functional amine and a specific di-hydroxy functional tertiary alkanolamine, to make an ester tertiary amine, which is a subsequent step is converted to a quaternary compound. Dimer acid is a C-36 diacid having a cyclic structure and reacting it with the two type of amine groups allow for the synthesis of a high molecular weight cationic compound which is extremely substantitive to human skin and are well tolerated by human tissue making them suitable for use preparation of barrier products for personal care applications. These materials are dimethylaminopropyl amine free, which is highly desirable in personal care applications.
