CONDITIONING SHAMPOO COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING SELECT CATIONIC CONDITIONING POLYMERS

摘要

PURPOSE: A conditioning shampoo composition is provided to be possibly applied to hair and skin and to have an improved conditioning performance by including a select cationic deposition polymer. CONSTITUTION: Disclosed are aqueous conditioning shampoo compositions which comprise an anionic detersive surfactant component; dispersed, liquid, hair conditioning agent having a number average particle diameter of from about 0.01 microns to about 2,000 microns; from about 0.025 % to about 5 % by weight of an organic, cationic, non cross-linked, depositionor conditioning polymer having a cationic charge density of from about 4 meq/gm to about 7 meq/gm and an average molecular weight of from about 1,000 to about 1 million. The cationic polymer, in combination with anionic detersive surfactant component and other essential components, provides improved deposition of the conditioning agent on hair or skin, even when the dispersed conditioning agent particles have a number average particle size of up to about 2,000 microns. The composition may be applied to skin or hair, and provides improved conditioning performance even without the use of the dispersed hair conditioning agent particles.
