Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim 123 words
A sprayable temporary curl setting composition comprising at least one water soluble, reactive polyamide-epichlorohydrin resin having the formula: ##STR2## wherein R is an alkyl group containing from 1 to about 6 carbon atoms, R 1 and R 2 are independently alkyl groups containing at least 2 carbon atoms, and n is the number of repeating units in the water soluble molecule and at least one water soluble vinylpyrrolidone polymer dissolved in a solvent-carrier for said resin and polymer, wherein the resin and polymer concentration of said composition are independently from about 0.5 to about 8 percent by weight based on the weight of resin, polymer and solvent-carrier and wherein the weight ratio of resin to polymer is from about 1:2 to about 2:1.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 123 words
A sprayable temporary curl setting composition comprising at least one water soluble, reactive polyamide-epichlorohydrin resin having the formula: ##STR2## wherein R is an alkyl group containing from 1 to about 6 carbon atoms, R 1 and R 2 are independently alkyl groups containing at least 2 carbon atoms, and n is the number of repeating units in the water soluble molecule and at least one water soluble vinylpyrrolidone polymer dissolved in a solvent-carrier for said resin and polymer, wherein the resin and polymer concentration of said composition are independently from about 0.5 to about 8 percent by weight based on the weight of resin, polymer and solvent-carrier and wherein the weight ratio of resin to polymer is from about 1:2 to about 2:1.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 33 words
The composition of claim 1 in which the resin is present in an amount of from about 1 to about 4 percent by weight based on the weight of resin, polymer and solvent-carrier.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 35 words
The composition of claim 1 in which the vinylpyrrolidone polymer is present in an amount of from about 1 to about 4 percent by weight based on the weight of the resin, polymer and solvent-carrier.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 35 words
The composition of claim 2 in which the vinylpyrrolidone polymer is present in an amount of from about 1 to about 4 percent by weight based on the weight of the resin, polymer and solvent-carrier.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 31 words
The composition of claim 1 in which the water soluble, reactive polyamide-epichlorohydrin resin is formed by reaction of epichlorohydrin with the polymer formed by reaction of adipic acid and diethylene triamine.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 35 words
The composition of claim 1 in which the total weight of resin and polymer in the composition is from about 1 to about 5 percent by weight based on the total weight of the composition.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 35 words
The composition of claim 4 in which the total weight of resin and polymer in the composition is from about 1 to about 5 percent by weight based on the total weight of the composition.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 35 words
The composition of claim 5 in which the total weight of resin and polymer in the composition is from about 1 to about 5 percent by weight based on the total weight of the composition.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 126 words
A sprayable temporary curl setting composition comprising at least one water soluble, reactive polyamide-epichlorohydrin resin having the formula: ##STR3## wherein R is an alkyl group containing from 1 to about 6 carbon atoms, R 1 and R 2 are independently alkyl groups containing from about 2 to about 4 carbon atoms, and n is the number of repeating units in the water soluble molecule and at least one water soluble vinylpyrrolidone polymer dissolved in a solvent-carrier for said resin and polymer, wherein the resin and polymer concentration of said composition are independently from about 0.5 to about 8 percent by weight based on the weight of resin, polymer and solvent-carrier and wherein the weight ratio of resin to polymer is from about 1:2 to about 2:1.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 126 words
A sprayable temporary curl setting composition comprising at least one water soluble, reactive polyamide-epichlorohydrin resin having the formula: ##STR3## wherein R is an alkyl group containing from 1 to about 6 carbon atoms, R 1 and R 2 are independently alkyl groups containing from about 2 to about 4 carbon atoms, and n is the number of repeating units in the water soluble molecule and at least one water soluble vinylpyrrolidone polymer dissolved in a solvent-carrier for said resin and polymer, wherein the resin and polymer concentration of said composition are independently from about 0.5 to about 8 percent by weight based on the weight of resin, polymer and solvent-carrier and wherein the weight ratio of resin to polymer is from about 1:2 to about 2:1.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 33 words
