Mixtures of quaternary polymeric ammonium salts, quaternary mono- or oligomeric ammonium salts and alkoxylated or sulfonated surfactants, their preparation and their use in cosmetic compositions

Abstract

Abstract 1. An aqueous composition of a polymeric quaternary ammonium salt, a monomeric, quaternary ammonium salt and an anionic, sulfonated surfactant or sarcosinate surfactant, which composition has a pH value of 3 to 8 and contains (A) 0.05 to 1.5 parts by weight, calculated as active ingredient, of a polymeric ammonium salt which is soluble or microemulsifiable in aqueous surfactant systems and which has at least 6 quaternary nitrogen atoms and a molecular weight of 10**3 to 5x10**6 , which polymeric ammonium salt contains quaternised starch, cellulose or guar gum derivatives, copolymers formed from dialkenyldialkylammonium salts and acrylamide or methacrylamide or copolymers formed from acrylic acid, acrylamide, acrylonitrile, methacrylic acid, methacrylamide or methacrylonitrile and quaternary ammonium salts of the acrylic acid series, (B) 0.2 to 10 parts by weight, calculated as active ingredient, of an ammonium salt of the formula see diagramm : EP0080977,P23,F1 Y3-(cation), wherein each of L1 and L2 is methyl, ethyl or hydroxyethyl, L3 is C10 -C22 alkyl, L4 is C10 -C22 alkyl, benzyl, phenoxymethylene or phenoxyethylene and Y3 (cation) is a chloride, methylsulfate or acetate anion and (C) 5 to 20 parts by weight, calculated as active ingredient, of an anionic surfactant of the formula X (cation) Z (anion) wherein X (cation) is the radical of a surface-active sarcosinate, sulfate (sulfate ether), sulfonate or sulfosuccinic acid derivative and Z (anion) is an alkali metal cation or an ammonium cation which is unsubstituted or substituted by C1 -C4 alkyl or C1 -C4 alkanoyl radicals, which anionic surfactant is at least partially reacted with the components (A) and (B) under ion exchange conditions and which composition is diluted with deionised water to a total of 100 parts by weight.
