Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim
123 words
A composition, for treating human live hair, selected from the class consisting of creme rinses and hair conditioners having an aqueous carrier, which includes, as an ingredient thereof, a hydrophobic-lipophobic compound of anionic, cationic, nonionic or amphoteric character corresponding to the formula CF.sub.3 --(CF.sub.2).sub.x --(CH.sub.2).sub.y --Z where Z comprises a member selected from the class consisting of a water-solubilizing group and an oil-solubilizing group, x is an integer from 2 to 17, and y is an integer from 0 to 4, said compound being present in proportions, based on the weight of the composition, in the range of about 0.05% to not in substantial excess of the solubility or ready dispersibility of said compound in the composition and not in excess of 10%.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
123 words
A composition, for treating human live hair, selected from the class consisting of creme rinses and hair conditioners having an aqueous carrier, which includes, as an ingredient thereof, a hydrophobic-lipophobic compound of anionic, cationic, nonionic or amphoteric character corresponding to the formula CF.sub.3 --(CF.sub.2).sub.x --(CH.sub.2).sub.y --Z where Z comprises a member selected from the class consisting of a water-solubilizing group and an oil-solubilizing group, x is an integer from 2 to 17, and y is an integer from 0 to 4, said compound being present in proportions, based on the weight of the composition, in the range of about 0.05% to not in substantial excess of the solubility or ready dispersibility of said compound in the composition and not in excess of 10%.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
22 words
The composition of claim 1, in which the proportions of said compound are in the range of about 0.5% to about 1%.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
18 words
The composition of claim 1, containing from about 70 to 90% by weight of water in said composition.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
20 words
The composition of claim 3, which contains up to about 10% by weight of a lower molecular weight aliphatic alcohol.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
16 words
The composition of claim 1, in which, in the hydrophobic-lipophobic compound, x is 7 to 11.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
26 words
The composition of claim 5, in which Z is a member selected from the class consisting of a sulfonic, sulfate, carboxyl, phosphate and quaternary ammonium group.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
12 words
The composition of claim 5, in which Z is a cationic radical.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
19 words
The composition of claim 1, which also includes from about 0.1% to about 2.5% of another water-soluble cationic surfactant.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
19 words
The composition of claim 5, which also includes from about 0.1% to about 2.5% of another water-soluble cationic surfactant.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
20 words
The composition of claim 7, which also includes from about 0.2 to about 1.7% of a water-soluble quaternary ammonium chloride.
Claim 12
Independent Claim
136 words
A method of treating human live hair which comprises applying to said hair an effective amount of a composition selected from the class consisting of creme rinses and hair conditioners having an aqueous carrier, said composition including, as an ingredient thereof, a hydrophobic-lipophobic compound of anionic, cationic, nonionic or amphoteric character corresponding to the formula CF.sub.3 --(CF.sub.2).sub.x --(CH.sub.2).sub.y --Z where Z comprises a member selected from the class consisting of a water-solubilizing group and an oil-solubilizing group, x is an integer from 2 to 17, and y is an integer from 0 to 4, said compound being present in proportions, based on the weight of the composition, in the range of about 0.05% to not in substantial excess of the solubility or ready dispersibility of said compound in the composition and not in excess of 10%.
Claim 13
Independent Claim
136 words
A method of treating human live hair which comprises applying to said hair an effective amount of a composition selected from the class consisting of creme rinses and hair conditioners having an aqueous carrier, said composition including, as an ingredient thereof, a hydrophobic-lipophobic compound of anionic, cationic, nonionic or amphoteric character corresponding to the formula CF.sub.3 --(CF.sub.2).sub.x --(CH.sub.2).sub.y --Z where Z comprises a member selected from the class consisting of a water-solubilizing group and an oil-solubilizing group, x is an integer from 2 to 17, and y is an integer from 0 to 4, said compound being present in proportions, based on the weight of the composition, in the range of about 0.05% to not in substantial excess of the solubility or ready dispersibility of said compound in the composition and not in excess of 10%.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
22 words
The method of claim 11, in which the composition also includes from about 0.1 to about 2.5% of another water-soluble cationic surfactant.
